Do you guys have an app for this device, Samsung Video, that just refuses to update?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kitkun:
Yep! I assumed it was from the fact that I had a Samsung Galaxy S4 before this phone. And I used that phone to restore my apps from. It says about Samsung Video (S4 & Note3) I believe for me.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortj19:
Yes it plagues me as well as the samsung beaming service
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qkzoo:
I haven't seen the beaming service app refuse to update. I'm not sure why it's doing this. The only thing I can assume is the new version of Samsung Video in the app store isn't compatible with the Galaxy S5 (or the installed firmware), and that somebody in quality control wasn't doing their due diligence. :confused:

I've been really happy with this phone so far, just wish I could root it. I haven't tried any suggested methods yet, I'm waiting to see what successes other people are having first before I brick my phone (I'm chicken!). I've been following this thread as well:

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] treIII:
I purchased my pixel xl from Verizon. I immediately installed T-Mobile sim. My data speeds were very very fast. I was on the P build. I could tell that CA was working. CA = carrier aggregation. Since then I unlocked bootloader and flashed Google play image and have been getting updates as if I have a Google store bought phone. The problem is that my data speeds have fallen tremendously making me wonder if 3 way carrier aggregation is working now. My data speeds were much faster than my Nexus 6p which has 2 way CA. Now the 6p is as fast anywhere I go. When I first got the phone I rarely had under 30 DL and 15 ul. Now I'm lucky if I get 15 DL and 5 ul. I've even flashed the P build radio that came with the phone out of the box bit still don't have the excellent data speeds that I first had. So I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this. And is there any way to check to see if the phone is using 3 way CA? Thanks to anyone who may answer with true knowledge
[Moto Z Force Questions & Answers] Shah1989:
Was rushing home this evening in the blistering cold and rain which we have in London at the moment. Got to the front door to take out the keys and then it happened.... I had dropped my z force face down onto the cold concrete floor :crying:

My heart sunk... I wasn't sure if I wanted to actually see what damage had been done. All the miles this phone had travelled around the world to come into my hands could have all been for nothing at this moment.

I tried to ignore the sick feeling in my stomach as I picked up the phone.....

I observed the screen.....Nothing, completely fine.

I check the edges and to my surprise it actually seemed fine. At this point the sick feeling in my guts had gone. I had a sigh of relief until I inspect a little closer to find really small scratches on the top right corner of the bumper and bottom right corner too.

Anyway my question is I was thinking to actually cover these scratches up in some way using a very fine brush maybe but I just have no idea what kinda paint i'd need and what kinda shade of grey this bumper is. My paint knowledge is zero so anyone with a bit of help would be much appreciated.
[Moto Z Force Questions & Answers] Silentwidow:
I would say something like a modeling brush, and maybe go to a hobby store(the super nerd kind, where they do WARHAMMER) as they paint a lot, and they may be able to get a good match of color for you.

Safe mode does not need root .

To boot into safe mode :

1. Turn your phone off

2. Press power button until it vibrates

Then quickly press and hold volume down key and keep holding until the phone start up completely .. there will be a safe mode label at the screen

To close it just restart

Any way I thought that u couldn't turn off developer options, But in your case , you've said it didn't help so it's a problem with the rom , I guess.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blakestr:
Here has more background http://xdaforums.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-t3330135/page23 but the TLDR is that my phone is stuck in bootloop, even when I flash a stock image in Odin (Does it matter if I use AP in Odin versus BL? I tried both)

All I can think is that in recovery I did a full wipe on every conceivable thing. I also did a nanderase in Odin one time. Maybe shouldn't have.

This is also compounded by the fact that my phone's home button doesn't work so to get to download mode I am forced to use a jig I cobbled together and essentially hotwire my phone into download mode.

Does someone have a safe, stock ROM so I can get things back to square one? I've tried N910PVPS4COK1_N910PSPT4COK1_N910PVPS4COK1_HOME.tar so I am pretty sure I was on OG5 baseband with OK1 build. But still, if your friend who knew nothing about phones gave you one in a bootloop, which rom would you flash?

Thanks guys.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
I've helped with a similar issue before. In short, nand erase all will prevent phone from booting.

You need to install just the stock recovery converted from .img to tar.md5, flash with Odin in AP slot and factory reset and wipe the cache and dalvik in recovery.

To start, you need to extract the recovery.img from the stock tar and use utility to convert it and flash in Odin AP slot. This utility may work, I don't recall which utility I used before because my motherboard and hard drive crashed. Lost everything. Try this one.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45629177&postcount=1

With your broken home key, I'm not sure what the phone does with only recovery flashed. Hopefully it auto boots to recovery seeing only that so you can factory reset and wipe. If so, flash stock after that.

If you can't boot to recovery, you may have to install adb on your computer and try to send the command (adb reboot recovery) from either download mode or timed correctly while it's attempting a boot. I'm thinking with nothing but recovery, the phone will either boot recovery or KIES or Smart Switch will recognize it. You may also convert the boot.img (kernel) with that same utility for Odin flash in AP slot if the phone isn't recognized. The bootloader could also be extracted and flashed with Odin in BL slot.

But hopefully you don't have to do all this workaround stuff to recover. I'd start with just stock recovery converted tar.md5 with utility and factory reset and wipe. If it didn't auto boot into recovery, try the traditional boot to recovery pattern. If not working, then try the adb command from download mode, and so on with other means to either boot in recovery or get KIES or Smart Switch to recognize.

Edit: if you're already able to boot stock recovery, just factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik and power down, remove battery for 30 seconds and flash stock tar.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blakestr:
Can you elaborate on boot to recovery pattern? I flashed the recovery but it still wouldn't boot to recovery. Is that because the stock tar I flashed is still fouling things up?

Should I land erase again so the stock tar is gone, then try flashing the recovery Image? I don't quite understand why taking parts of the stock tar and flashing them separately is any different than flashing the tar file itself.

Got some reason, adb always says device not recognised, even though Odin has no trouble, so it's probably not a driver issue, but the way I'm starting or running adb.exe
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Since you already did the nand erase all in Odin and haven't booted successfully, I don't think you could do any further harm by going it again.

I honestly don't know the usefulness of the feature or instructions when using it, just that from some searching, that stock recovery helps to recover from using it.

Sounds like your home switch is still dysfunctional and you want to try the nand erase all, flash only stock recovery and see if it auto reboots into recovery? You could try.

Did you use this adb installer or follow the OP to try to get phone recognized?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48915118&postcount=1

Edit: Still reading the thread above but it looks like win10 users have to run installer in administrative mode and also use the edited version below. Not sure if the OP corrected the issue but typo of version in OP still exists so I'd try this one and make sure the Samsung driver from Samsung support was also installed.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=67779874&postcount=821

I'm still getting my new PC updated with tools but will try this adb installer soon.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blakestr:
Fyi I'm on Windows 7 if it matters
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Have you tried traditional adb through installation of Android SDK and setting path as outlined in this guide?

http://www.serverdrivers.com/2016/10/universal-adb-driver-download-for.html?m=1

And did you install the Samsung USB driver from Samsung support on Note 4?

http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...G_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.45.00.exe

I ask because I'm not sure why you get device not found. The installer thread I mentioned earlier claimed that only adb sideload works with the above adb method. I'm thinking it may be Google limiting access in later updates but just a guess.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] SWBgHz:
I am seeing an issue with my new Mix when trying to place a phone call with the Google Voice app set for GV to make all calls. The animation to go to dialer appears and very quickly you can see the call start to be placed but then it closes and returns you to precious screen.

Anyone else seeing tgs, afraid GV is a must have for me so going to have to eBay the phone (love it otherwise) if no solution. Tried clearing app, reinstalling, and all the settings I can think of but all to no avail.

I have MIUI global v8.0 (8.0.7.0.0 MAHCNDI). Localization set to China, nothing else seems like a better option, so left it but changing didn't make any difference.

Sucks, love the phone but can't give up my Google voice for it. Anyone have an idea for a workaround/fix?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] RMXO:
I can verify GV doesn't work on making calls on the EU rom either. Will report back down the road once there are updated weekly EU roms available from MIUI / xiaomi.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] SWBgHz:
I heard someone who did the Hangouts transition say it works for GV calls. I haven't ever done the Hangouts transition simply because it doesn't seem to carry text messages forward and I prefer having them all in on place rather than having old messages in GV app and new ones in Hangouts.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] juggz143:
Hey I have a Mate 8 with the same issue (mix on the way tho) and as I was investigating I read somewhere that most Chinese made phones have this issue. The only real workaround is to set gv to ask every time. It sounds annoying at first but it's less annoying then my calls not going thru or people asking what number is this (because they don't recognize my actual cell number). It has something to do with the timing of the handoff from gv to cellular. I have not had any issues once it asks call with/without gv. I would suggest giving this a shot.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] SWBgHz:
Curious, never tried the ask every time setting. Things worked fine e if I did the hangouts dial and set Hangouts to get GB calls and texts. On this Mate 9 (Chinese version) it works fine set to make all calls.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] bigcc32:
This bug persists

On both the Chinese ROM and the EU ROM, using GV to make calls causes the dialer/phone app to crash, always. "Ask every time" causes it to crash as well.

I use hangouts to make outgoing calls. Google Voice itself is still capable of forwarding incoming calls to my phone's actual number (one I never use), so the actual phone app accepts any and all incoming calls. However, I have to dial out using Hangouts (kind of annoying).

So now I use hangouts for everything phone-function related on my end, and have the actual contacts app and phone app squirreled away somewhere where it won't accidentally get used (unless I want to). The only downside (I like Hangouts, but that might be a problem for some), is that my outgoing calls use VOIP (data). It's almost a nonissue, but it would be nice if MIUI worked with GV the way American android builds do.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] SWBgHz:
Curiously, yesterday GV make all calls stopped working for me and I had to set to ask every time. Then today ask every time stopped working. I went round and round uninstalling contacts and diapers and hangouts. Finally got it all working setting hangouts dialer as default dialer and GV make every call. Workable, but would prefer regular Google dialer and GV but tried APKs from APK Mirror for last few versions of Google dialer and they won't install, v7 says parse error and v6 says folder expected not found. Ugh. Anyways, at least it is working now.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] juggz143:
I finally received my phone and I am seeing the same as you guys, can only make gv calls with hangouts dialer. I'm getting sick of Google's lack of support for GV and am giving real consideration to just porting my number out. Smh I've had gv since it came out.

FYI: If you're using the hangouts dialer then you don't even need the gv app anymore. #ijs
