Why useless - still needed if setting up Version update.zip
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discus] tjthecat:
No, you need Verizon firmware to flash the Verizon update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discus] gaww:
But needed the firmware from the carrier to be flashed first (I thought), and then Verizon was flashed before doing the update.zip- you mean I wasted all that time doing it that way - lol?

On a more general note, I maybe could of gotten by on older bootloader, but culd not get n=even the bootloader of any of the older Verizon firm wares to take on ODIN. They I went to the latest non-downgradable (PH1) and it wouldn't flash either. Kept on try different things, and found if I used latest ODIN, it all worked - damn! Wish I had tried it first.

The ODIN of the rest of PH1 went OK (but had to use regular CSC (by data) to get it to boot.

After flashing the update zip, it booted fine but no data (plus the default APN was greyed out). Got a TMo APN setup, but the individual settings were slightly different from the TMo APN structure. Had to tweak it to get mms to work, and then data went away. For the h__l of it, i ODIN'd TMo latest CP. Booted OK, but still no data. Tweaked the APN a bit more and now have both.

I am hoping the TMo CP will make it possible to get the latest TNo LTE signals when they finally get them straightened out where I am - was getting 60Mbps in the hills here for awhile.

Question - Tmo betas are getting fixes - is Version getting then also, and could they be accessed - or is Samsung totally messing with all the zips going forward.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discus] tjthecat:
Pretty sure Samsung is messing with them. Not sure. Haven't visited the Verizon forum in a few days.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] animalbear:
My LG G3 kinda died in sleep. It powered off during the night and once I woke up, I tried to turn it off but it's now stuck on LG logo screen.

For a month now I've been going through other threads about this, but still can't find solution that works, I'm not sure if I missed anything.

Phone status:

- It won't boot further than LG logo screen

- From recovery mode, there is only 'Factory reset' option, which I've tried several times, but once again it gets stuck on LG logo

- I can go into Download mode but can't get it to work

So far I've tried with TOT files - LGFlashTool (version 1.5 and 1.8)

and KDZ - LGFlashTool 2014

With earlier versions (TOT files) I got message: Model check information FAIL! - Screenshot: i.imgur.com/N6sxbEt.jpg

And with LGFlashTool 2014 (KDZ) I got: Connection with server fail - Screenshot: imgur.com/wD6vWL3.jpg

While I'm not sure I'm using correct TOT files for my device (it's from Switzerland and has 6SW mark so I went with Europien files), I know that KDZ are good (I've used IMEI search option, so that's all good), but that doesn't even matter since it won't even comunicate with the damn server in the first place.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated, I've lost all hope :/

Thanks,

hi bro.

try forcing phone to boot in qualcomm 9008.

and unbrick it with board diag.

for booting phone in 9008 mode you should open back of your phone.

google:( G3 test point)

on xda you can find few thread about unbrick.

if you couldn't repair it send it to LG Services for repair.

About

If you encrypt your device and set a screen lock protection with a PIN or password some ROMs have a bug which prevents unlocking your screen again. This flashable ZIP will fix this by

disabling the gatekeeper libraries which are not working as expected

deleting the not working protection PIN/password so you can set a new one

See the full details and description in the "Technical details" post

This will not touch your device encryption password/PIN!

The presented ZIP here is a result of a long finding process I made in cyanogenmod forum

( wayback archive )

Requirements

This is for

encrypted

devices only!

This is for

CM or CM based

ROMs only. this may

not

apply to all CM based ROMs, e.g. exodus seems to be not affected.

You need to have TWRP installed. Therefore

you need an unlocked device

as well.

Guide

Download zip

Boot into twrp

Transfer the zip to your device

ensure you have decrypted data partition in twrp!!!!!!! If you skip this step it will not work.

Flash the zip

Reboot

Whenever asked for a password just press ENTER!!!!!

Goto settings and set a new PIN/password

Reboot

Enjoy

Known issues

This is just a

workaround

for a problem need to be solved in the ROM(s) and may be/is fixed in a future release of your favorite ROM.

Technical details

Q: What exactly happens when flashing this ZIP?

Answer:

moving: /system/vendor/lib/hw/gatekeeper.msm8992.so --to--> /system/vendor/lib/hw/gatekeeper.msm8992.so

.disabled

moving: /system/vendor/lib64/hw/gatekeeper.msm8992.so --to--> /system/vendor/lib64/hw/gatekeeper.msm8992.so

.disabled

creating dir: /data/system/gk_backup

moving:/data/system/gatekeeper.*.key --to--> /data/system/gk_backup/

moving: /data/system/locksettings.db* --to--> /data/system/gk_backup/

1 and 2 are required so you can setup a PIN/password without problems!

3 is just for having a local backup of the current settings

4 and 5 will reset your password/pin/pattern settings of your lock screen. This is required so you can unlock your device again.

After flashing you will reboot and you should have to swipe only to unlock your screen. If you still see a PIN/password lock just press ENTER to unlock.

Now when you set a new pin/password it will just work! The reason is that the gatekeeper libraries are disabled now. While trying to set a new pin/password and you gets asked for the current pin/password just press ENTER as well. Then set a new one and enjoy.

Btw: I highly recommend to use snooperstopper app! It allows you to setup different protection passwords for screen unlock and device unlock. Besides this you can setup there a maximum amount of unlock faults until the device just reboots! That means if a user tries to hack your screen lock and fails that amount of time you set the device will reboot and is encrypted so even harder to "break". I really like that :)

Again: This is just a

workaround

for a problem need to be solved in the ROM(s) and may be/is fixed in a future release of your favorite ROM.

Q: Is the setting permanent?

Yes and no.

Yes because it will still works after rebooting

No because you have to re-apply this after you upgrading your ROM

Again: This is just a

workaround

for a problem need to be solved in the ROM(s) and may be/is fixed in a future release of your favorite ROM.

The SnooperStopper functionality was added to the CM-14.1 branch:

Sources: [1/2] base: support separate encryption/lockscreen passwords, [2/2] settings: support setting a separate encryption password.

Does anybody know if the encryption already works on the CM-14.1 branch for the G4 device?

Afaik nobody cares about encryption so I was surprised to see that change. Maybe it's worth to give 14.1 anoyher try but I see so many other issues with N which prevents me on doing so..

[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] kingsrow1975:
Hi, all...I recently got a replacement Moto G4 from the factory. When I plug it in, it doesn't say it's using TurboPower charging, even when using a proper charger. If I plug my wife's Moto G4 in, it says it's using TurboPower, but for me, just "Charging" shows up.

Also, the battery icon up top used to only show the lightning bolt when it was charging, but now it's on all the time. The icon on my main page shows the lightning bolt as if it were charging, even though it isn't. The attached image shows how it is, even when not plugged in.

To try to fix these issues, I have turned my phone off and on, forced a reset, cleared my cache, booted in safe mode and even did a factory data reset.

What gives? Is there something wrong or is this normal? Please help! Thanks!

Not the same thing but my battery started playing up. The battery drain was unbelievable dropping 15% in 10 mins while just sat there on the side doing nothing at times. I wiped it back to stock and left it as is like new and it still happened. I bought a new quick charge adapter to see if that worked and it's the same, I have gone back to using a normally charger and the battery life as been great like it should be. I can only assume that the quick charge function of the battery is faulty. I only charge my phone while asleep really so it's not a major problem, just annoying that I've spent £20+ on quick charge adapters that I can't use.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chidorimove:
I have a Samsung Note 3 SM-N9008W and custom rom'd it recently with AryaMod ROM Port Series because the stock rom was at 4.3 and the phone was very slow.

Everything works fine except making/receiving phone calls and text messages. I got the phone from a relative who bought it unlocked. He is not tech savvy so he

does not know the network provider or the country of origin. I found out from the IMEI number the phone's model. The phone is currently locked

to the carrier the moment I custom rom'd the phone. I was not aware of this until a customer rep at T-Mobile (my current network provider) told me. The IMEI number

has also changed to one that registers as SM-N9005. Is there anyone with a similar situation? The phone is not blacklisted and calls were fine before custom rom.

I have some experience in custom rom as I had custom rom'd multiple times with a T-Mobile that were always successful and I have been a long time XDA lurker.

This is my first post and I know it's long but I'm trying to provide as much information as possible.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chidorimove:
It says product name is SM-N900W8. Do you know of a way of how I can find the original carrier/network? I've tried using IMEI checkers and Google.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The sm-900w8 is what shows in download mode? Where did you get the relative buy the phone? The 900w8 was issued by Canadian carriers. The phone was also carried by Mexican and Puerto Rican carriers too.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chidorimove:
Yeah I'm aware the phone is for Canada or South American countries such as Mexico, Puerto Rico and a few others. My uncle is in China and he bought the phone unlocked. He just needed phone and must have been scammed into buying a phone that was dirty unlocked (as in unlocked without a code from the original carrier). He gave me the phone when he came to the U.S. because he wanted an iPhone (iPhone hype in China is real). And he's not very tech savvy so he won't know what carrier and country the phone is actually from. I highly doubt the person he bought the phone from is there anymore so he won't be able to ask. I can post some pics from the inside of the phone if that helps. There are some Spanish words such as TELEFONO CELULAR/ CELLULAR PHONE.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
If it has some spanish, it's likely the phone is for Mexico or Puerto Rico.

Stock ROMs are here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N900W8/

It's an excellent phone. I've never heard of a phone re-locking itself after being network unlocked.

What ROM is currently on the phone? Does the imei in the phone match the imei on the label in the battery compartment?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chidorimove:
Yeah I've never heard of phones re-locking itself until I ran into this predicament right now. The current ROM is the AryaMod ROM. This is the link http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-aryamod-note7-port-v1-0-t3492224. It was a clean flash from this Canadian 5.0 stock rom. I have tried both the stock roms of the Canada version, which is the 4.4 stock rom and 5.0 stock rom to get the cellular network to work. This one is 4.4 N900W8VLUCNB7_N900W8OYACNB7_N900W8VLUCNB7_HOME.tar.md5 and this one is 5.0 N900W8VLU2DPG1_N900W8OYADPG1_N900W8VLU2DPG1_HOME.tar.md5. I still can't get the cellular network to work so I guess I'll try downloading the Mexico or Puerto Rico stock ROMS. The IMEI numbers are different, the one on the label of battery compartment is . The one on the phone in About Device is . This IMEI <-- is the same for both the AryaMod ROM and the stock roms but different from the original IMEI on the label in the battery compartment. I don't even know if unlocking services can help me because I don't get the unlock code that people get when they insert a different carrier's sim card into the phone. It just says Emergency call only on top left corner of the phone and when attempting to make a call it says "Not registered on network."
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Since the imei does not match the battery label, it looks like the phone is a frankenphone in that it was put together using different parts from different phones.

Not sure why the imei would change unless something happened in the efs folder. Does the imei start with 0049?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chidorimove:
The IMEI on the label of the battery compartment is .

The IMEI on the About Device is .

What do you mean by efs folder?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Erase your imei #s. It's not a good idea to post them publicly.

The EFS folder is where the important information, such as imei, serial # etc. is stored.

I'm confused because the motherboard in download mode says the model # is sm-n900w8. The imei in about device indicates that phone is an sm-n9005.

I think it is failing to register on the network because the EFS contents may have been altered.

The only way to really know for sure may be to dismantle the phone and look at the markings on the motherboard.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chidorimove:
Okay thanks, I deleted the numbers but not sure what to do with the EFS folder. I understand it holds important information

but to retrieve the original IMEI number I would have to flash the stock rom that was originally on the phone before I started

updating the stock roms/adding a custom rom right? If that's the case it's probably one of the Spanish ones.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Before proceeding, open the phone and look at the motherboard for any markings that indicate it's true form; that is, sm-n9005, sm-n900w8.

If it is an n900w8, the original imei may have been changed to an n9005 imei # for various reasons. If the original was altered, this may be why it cannot be registered on the network.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chidorimove:
Sorry, I've already tried installing the stock roms last night for the Mexico/Peru ones at Android 4.3 since I believe that was the stock rom before I got it all the way to 6.0 AryaMOD custom rom. Inside the phone near the battery compartments it does say N900A in two different areas. I have also tried flashing AT&T's stock rom and the 4.3 is the only option on sammobile.com. All stock roms have failed so far except the stock roms for Canada 900W8. I have not tried flashing any of the N9005 stock roms despite the IMEI # on the About Device indicating it's a N9005. From your advice, it does look like someone altered this IMEI. Is there any way to fix this or I would have just go to one of those places and get it dirty unlocked? I believe dirty unlock is changing the IMEI number but correct me if I'm wrong.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
What is the error message on Odin? You could copy and paste the Odin log here.

If the phone's motherboard is an n900a, it may have a locked bootloader which prevents your from installing any AT&T roms from sammobile.com.

If it is an n900w8, you cannot flash any stock roms that are 4.3 or older if the bootloader is 4.4.2 or 5.0.
