Thanks for adding my thread :) and thanks for creating this thread it will help all other users to get all stuff at one place I hope you will keep updating it.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Sushant515:
I hope we will soon have a custom ROM
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] GuestK00159:
The guy who created custom kernel and twrp 3.0.2 is also working in omni rom but no success hope he will make it
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Owen007:
Yup I hope he could make one
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] dadziokPL:
I don't think so... I also have one more thing to fix in the kernel. Have you guys noticed very high battery usage? I've checked, and it seems like my phone does not go into deep sleep, and the battery just dies really quickly. I'll copy the clean source from Samsung, disable SELinux, and rebuild the kernel, maybe it will fix itself. Overall I'm taking a break for a few days, I'll try to fix the kernel next week.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Owen007:
Yea i removed it after one day because my phone died really quickly I was surprised then I again flashed stock rom. Now my device is clean.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] DzonTravolta:
Hi guys, I am new do xdadevelopers. I rooted phone yesterday with a prerooted method. Came with a problem that made my phone restart after apps being updated or installed. I did factory reset and solved that problem. In this prerooted method I got APUS. If you can tell me a little more about APUS. What exactly it is? My biggest problem right now is when i try to install twrp through odin on pc and download mode on grand prime, it shows me fail and on phone shows me custom binary blocked by frp lock. As I sad, i am really new to this and i am willing to learn.

So my questions are here:

1. What is APUS? And what do i need it for?

2. Why i need twrp recovery and why i can't install it?

Thanks ahead guys, whenever you can/ if you can
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Labestiajaker:
You need restore to original recovery and disable frp

[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Owen007:
Hello DZON wlecome to XDA Developers. I dont know what apus is I guess its a launcher.

Read this how to flash twrp:-

1. Frp lock is a security which dont let u flash some other unofficial frimwares and stuff.

2. You need to remove your all google accounts and then put your device in download mode and flash twrp with odin.

3. But if u again add google account again after flashing twrp ur device will get locked.

4. So theres a method to off frp lock forever. See this link:-

see my signature down this post. and tell me if u find them usefull.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] DzonTravolta:
How to do that?

Is it easy and i can find tutorial on google?

Thanks man, for this awesome fast reply :D

---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 PM ----------

Wow you guys are unbelievable!! :)

First i need to remove google account and then go with method by number 4 you posted?

And does that mean i can't use google account after doing what you told me?

If anyone else knows, do i need APUS launcher, or is there any better out there?

Thanks man so much for replying!
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Owen007:
Yes remove google account and follow step 4. After the step 4 is completed you can add google account by the app quickshortcutmaker as described in 4th step.

Have any problem pm me if i helped u can hit thanks button :)

P.s remove apus launcher its of no need

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MAX 404:
Hi mate

It changes , but if you want to keep you phone with the latest stock firmware ( warranty safe) and not losing your configuration check here
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Geeks Empire:
you cannot tell or guess which region get firmware update first

but maybe the region that has most user!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gerhard_wa:

Sorry for the bump, I bought the S7 in Israel, should there be a problem with flashing a foreign ROM?

Thanks again
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MAX 404:
Hi

No that is not a problem , the only issue you may be concern is your phone CSC ( country code) is not a big deal but some carrier specific options may be not available if you have a different CSC than you carrier
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gerhard_wa:
Just see to it that you use the CSC file and NOT the Home_CSC when you are switching CSC. Fill in the BL, AP, CP and the CSC files in the right fields and have the following boxes ticked: Auto-Reboot, Re-Partition, F. Reset Time.

After the flash, power off, reboot and enter Recovery. Select and execute Wipe cache partition and then Wipe Data/Factory Reset. Reboot and then you will receive OTA updates from the new region you flashed when they are released. You should be aware of the fact that your Samsung warranty is void after switching CSC should they notice it. This probably is not likely, but still, be aware of it. Flashing original Samsung firmware do not trigger Knox.

All your data will be lost so back up important stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] obongo:
Thanks for the replies, by CSC do you mean Israel's CSC or the other country's CSC? I'm flashing the newest build from the UK with the November 1 security patch which was build in November, but the Israeli build was built in August and has the August security patch. Could that cause a problem?

Say I filled the UK BL, AP and CP with ISRAEL's CSC (not HOME_CSC), what are the chances for a HARD brick?

Thanks again

EDIT:

If it matters, these are the links for the builds I'm hoping to use:

UK: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/113229/G930FXXS1BPK6_G930FH3G1BPI1_H3G/

Israel: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/89793/G930FXXU1BPH6_G930FOJK1BPH2_ILO/
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gerhard_wa:
You MUST use the csc that comes with the firmware package. The csc file contains info on the layout for how the firmware files are going to be organized. You should not mix files from different packages. It is only when you are flashing a newer version of the same region firmware that you can use the Home_CSC file. The Home_CSC file do not contain the instructions for how Odin shall re-partition the system as this is not needed in that case. This is why config and data is not wiped and the phone is not factory reset when using the Home_CSC.

The CSC file must be used when you switch region since the layout in memory is different for different regions.

So you see you will always lose configuration and data and have to do a factory reset upon CSC switching. No way around this I'm afraid!

On the risks of hard brick when mixing files I have no clue. If you are adventurous you could try, otherwise do not try!

---------- Post added at 07:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 AM ----------

The UK firmware you link here is a carrier specific Hutchison 3G firmware and should not be used unless this is your operator. I would suspect that mixing the files is risky.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] obongo:
It seems that there are two versions of Trinidad and Tobago's firmware that you've mentioned in your earlier post, specifically TTT and EON

Are both compatible? Is there another, unbranded firmware that I can get with the November 1 security patch? I'm gonna be using the phone in Israel and my current baseband ends with BPH1

Thanks again
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MirceaForce:
XEF France neverlocked .......
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MAX 404:
Hi mate

You can use any CSC with any firmware you want ( check the first link i gave you) what i meant about CSC is for example you live in Israel but you have a UK csc , the phone will work fine , but if there is any specific service from you carrier ( Israel ) that depends that you have an Israeli csc i will not work ...because you have a UK csc
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gerhard_wa:
I didn't mean that you should flash the Trinidad and Tobago firmware, I just commented on the post saying that the firmware that has the most users was updated first. I think that you should use the firmware that best suits your operator. And if you decide to switch, do not mix files, use all files in the package you flash, and do not use Home_CSC.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] obongo:
Ahh I see. I'm gonna go ahead and try to flash the H3G firmware then, will update with results
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] obongo:
It worked, but the H3G ROM is heavily bloated

Is there a way to restore the original Samsung boot animation? Also, how do I make it mount the system read/write?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gerhard_wa:
What you want is not possible without root access. You need to go to other parts of this forum to do research on how to root your phone and install custom roms.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] obongo:
Already rooted of course, however even with su enabled I can't write to /system

I also tried to switch the boot animation with substratom and it didn't work, are there other apps/ways that are known to work? I just want the stock Samsung logo back (or anything that doesn't have a site address on it lol). I'm not eager to give root access to everything that claims to be able to change your boot anim, and Google brought up nothing

EDIT:

I've managed to get rid of the H3G boot and shutdown animations by going to /system/media/ and removing *.qmg, then going to /system/media/video/shutdown/ and removing shutdown.qmg

Do this at your own risk, it won't restore the original Marshmallow animation but it will PROBABLY make your device stay on the "powered by Android" logo instead of going to the carrier boot animation

Hello

I have an LG G4 bought from eBay.in and It came with the usual LG stock android OS.

Now the PROBLEM is

1- that it shows in the About menu --> Hardware Info --> LG-H815 :rolleyes:

2- on its back (internal) it is labeled as H811 :confused:

3- in the ADB it shows as LGLS991 :crying:

It came rooted with SuperSU, and i have literally did what i could do from what i have learned on xda to flash TWRP on it but i was not successful.:crying::crying::crying:

Now the thing is that I am willing to give Rs.1000 to the person who can do this for me. I can come anywhere in INDIA (Favorably North and Middle India like Delhi, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh etc ) to the person who agree to Flash latest TWRP in my LG G4 + Latest Marshmallow LG stock rom. :victory:

Sprint version have Root Only. they doesn't have TWRP or any other recovery.

so don't mess with your G4.

Hi guys, yesterday I tried to split my broken glass from the lcd and I succeded with it. After this there was an uv loca gel left over the lcd and I used acetone to remove it.

But the problem is that also at the back of the LCD there was specific tape I think white scotch and black but unsure and she also fell off.

I tried to check if the display is still working and it's working. Just wondered about that tape or adhesive I don't know what is it and, is it so important to install a new one, before apply a new uv loca gel over the lcd.

The tape was between LCD and Copper, directly at the back of the lcd when used acetone it was sticky but removable, so I pull all of it, but display still works.

Thanks in advance,

Sorry for my bad English.

updates:

When I get the display from the frame, the copper left on the frame, perhaps biggest mistake?.

Maybe it could be the tape between the copper and LCD.

I just know that it's at the back side of the LCD without the copper.

[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Questions & Answers] hexbioc:
My Lenovo Zuk Z2 Plus has been randomly freezing (Happens at least once each day) even when it is NOT in use. The following conditions are observed on freeze:

Blank black screen

Flickering notification LED

Slight heating up

To recover, I have to force reboot by holding the power button and sometimes it requires multiple force reboots to recover.

Since the phone is only a month old and I'm not sure of the warranty norms, I have refrained myself from rooting my phone and trying a custom ROM.

I had handed over my phone to the official service center; they reinstalled the ROM. However the problem still persists. Before visiting the service center again, I was wondering if I could get any insight/past experience/help from the community here.

Can anyone help me in anyway?

PS: I know this is the Zuk Z2 Pro thread, but as there was no Q&A thread in the Zuk Z2 Plus section, I am forced to post here. Sorry for that!
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Questions & Answers] kartik-dhiman:
On which ZUI version you are ??

ZUI 2.0.111ST or 2.0.133 ST ??

There was problems in 2.0.111ST .

If you are still at that try factory data reset, then update then again factory data reset.

Tell me if the problem occurs again.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Questions & Answers] hexbioc:

After installing it, please dont forget to factory data reset once again.

Hope it will resolve your problem.

Do notify for any assistance. Anytym :)

But heating problem is common. Try greenify for some lesser background apps. It will surely less heatup.

My phone is also having a problem. The screen flickers when using Instagram . Going black from top and bottom and flickers in center. Only way to exit is to close the Instagram app. I updated and factory reset but problem persists.

I thinks its an software problem because it happens in instagram app.

If possible, get the phone replaced. The issue has not yet been solved; my phone is with the service center now and they are looking for hardware problems. They had re-flashed the latest ROM twice earlier, but did not help.

PS: I have noticed that the problem usually arises when I am at specific physical locations. There was a time when I used it for almost a month in Mumbai without any problem. But I have no evidence to support this claim, only observations which could also be coincidence.
