There was a way to root at one point, it was a rather involved process with many steps and many risks though. But, I think the latest update made that impossible.

I have this device and was going to use the process to root but unfortunately, I took the update. I didn't think there was a patch in the update but it seems that there was. I didn't know the update would interfere but it did.

I have the S903VL version and stuck on bootloop. Not sure how to fix this. I've been trying a lot to figure this out. Any ideas what to do?

I've already tried safe mode and it still crashed. I went into the power, home and volume up settings and did clear cache/wipe to factory settings.

I can't even do safe mode after that.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Droidriven:
What did you do to cause the bootloop?

If you can boot to download mode, flash the stock firmware that you had installed before the bootloop occurred.

My friend gave the phone to me saying it was doing that to them. When I got my hands on it, it was working just fine for a couple of days. Now after my post, I can't get into anything.

I get the blue screen.

I gave up. Tracfone said they would send a replacement. It's weird because it was bought as a Straight Talk phone but it shows up as tracphone.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Droidriven:
Straight Talk is a division of TracFone. I think someone tried to root the device or tried flashing TWRP on it. This would cause the bootloop because the device has a locked bootloader.

I wasn't on planning on rooting the device when getting it. I did a Google search and this came up.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Droidriven:
I didn't say that you were planning to root it. I said it sounds like whoever had it before you tried to root it or flash it which then caused the issues that created the bootloop.

I highly doubt they would even know. It's all good. Hopefully the replacement will work out. Thank you.

Do you need a specific version of 6.0.1 to downgraded to 4.4.2?

I have the ST model is sm-s903vl, android version is 6.01, android security patch level is June 1, 2017, baseband version is S903VLUDU6AQF5, Hardware version S903VL.01
[Galaxy S 5 General] Droidriven:
There have been two 6.0.1 updates, you need the version before these two updates, if you've updated to either of the two updates then it's too late for you.

i didn't see any RUU for your device ( maybe there is but i didn't see it )

You can restore a stock TWRP backup from this thread

https://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860

choose by version main ( 6.13.206.5 ) from post #3 and follow the instruction from OP
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kruc Ire:
You have to wait a long time for bootup. Even after white HTC screen which can take a few minutes, it will optimise 165 or so apps on MM 6.0, and 265 or so in Lollipop 5.0, depending what you have. Try going away for a half hour while it boots.

Another thing you might try is when it goes on hanging in the 'finishing boot' for a long time so that you think it has completed optimizing of the apps, (wait 20 minutes some apps take minutes to optimize, and there are as I said over 160 at least) , turn it off again by holding the power button for 15-30 seconds or however long it takes to get it to power off. Then restart again it may come on.

*if the power off alone doesnt shut it off, power off+vol down should.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You need a ruu but unfortunately ruu is not available (afaik).

Worth a try ... flash htc signed firmware fw_6.13.206.5 that you can get from same link above on post #5.

Most important is too see whether the firmware can be successfully installed with no error. If there is error, I'm afraid that will be hardware.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavster26:
which link mate. can the boot loader be unlock in this state
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Link on post #4 above or directly here : https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60218734&postcount=5

Not so sure whether can be unlocked but you can try.

You need to get the unlock code from www.htcdev.com to unlock bootloader.

Good luck and good night .. gotta go now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] neo7891:
Hey everybody!

I have a problem with my Galaxy S7 Edge

Note that I have recently installed the latest stock rom, rooted the device,

and debloated using the script in this xda thread:

https://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/development/mydebloat-3-0-safely-debloat-rom-s7-t3463374

Whenever I try to connect to an open public wifi that requires an additional login

(like at the airport or starbucks) my galaxy does something like a

soft reboot ( goes black, I see the Samsung Letters appear, and then it

quickly starts up again ). Other wifis have no problem, and the phone works perfectly otherwise.

Does anyone have a suggestion what this might be caused by or how to fix it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] artimaes:
I am having a problem that I am hoping someone can help me figure out. It is almost a problem I have found several people have, but my situation does not match any of the solutions that work for others with similar issues. Here it is:

I have two tablets, both are Nextbook Ares 8 tablets but one has android 5.0 and the other has 5.1 on it. I wanted to put android 5.1 on both, so I looked it up and found vampirefo's guide to rooting and putting twrp on the 5.0 tablets and figured I would start there to get to where I could put 5.1 on it. Problem is, I put TWRP on both tablets and neither one can mount the data partition so I can't get anywhere with it. I screwed up the 5.0 with a borked 5.1 but I cannot restore it because I can't put my backup on it where twrp can see it.

I, of course, looked up the issue of not being able to load /data and found several solutions. The only thing that sort of works is to format data through twrp on the data partition. This makes it so that while in twrp I can mount the partition, but since I cannot access it to put things on it while the tablet is in TWRP I cannot put the backup on the partition while the tablet can mount the partition. If I reboot the tablet in order to put data on it(or even reboot the tablet straight from TWRP after a reformat and mount to TWRP again) I am no longer able to mount the partition until I again format it(which wipes out any data I have put on it). This is not related to having data on the partition, it is not related to having booted to another mode or connected to any device, and this is not related to anything I have done because the only thing I did after getting the tablets was boot them all up and check the OS version and that the tablets were both the same model number and then I rebooted to bootloader and flashed TWRP on and booted to that. The 5.1 tab has the same issue with not mounting /data, but I am most concerned with it on the 5.0 tablet.

Both tablets are model NXA8QC116

One came with 5.1 on it stock, the other 5.0

TWRP I flashed to both was 2.8.6.0 from vampirefo's post here: https://xdaforums.com/and...overy-t3133165

The tablets both see the data partition when booted normally, but not when in TWRP. That's all the information I know to provide, if anyone can help me figure this out I would appreciate being able to learn why and how this is an issue for me specifically in addition to just solving the problem. After all, I cannot find anyone else having this issue with Ares 8 tablets...they all seem to have no issue with this TWRP being put on this tablet.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Accessories] bandario:
My sister knows me all too well and gave me a Gear Fit 2 for Christmas.

Overall, I'm pretty pleased and the battery life of the watch itself is better than I expected. Unfortunately, it seems that having the watch permanently paired to the phone has had way more impact on battery life than I would have thought.

I'm not sure if the gear fit 2 is a BLE (bluetooth low energy) device but I would sincerely hope so but either way, having it paired has absolutley smashed my average battery expectations to the point that I am considering not wearing the band unless I'm exercising.

When I bought the active, I had to stop using my miband 1s for the same reason: it would just eat phone battery, but I never had that problem with any of my other phones.

I'm not sure what I'm looking for here save to say: great product, terrible result if you don't want to charge your phone daily.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Accessories] pside15:
I can't comment on those 2 specific devices but I have a Gear S2 3G model and I see no extra battery drain at all. If anything I probably get better battery life on my S7 active since I got the watch. Not having to turn on my phone for every notification definitely helps battery life in a positive way, even if it isn't substantial.

I'm still using the factory firmware so when I return from holidays I will flash to a slightly newer one and report back if it gives me a better result.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] sukamadika:
Good day everyone,

I've recently bought a OnePlus 3 and was wondering how would you know if the phone hasn't been tampered with? I mean how can you make sure the phone seller didn't modify the OS in the factory reset folder to include malware or make any changes in the settings? I know you could factory reset a phone, but what if the OS in the factory reset folder was modified? I tried checking if the phone is in super user mode, but is that enough to know if when you factory reset the phone, it is installing a clean copy of the OS?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] LS.xD:
As long as the bootloader is locked, the system is probably not modified.

You can manually format the phone's storage and install the original OP3 firmware, which is downloadable from oneplus.net. Doing so will replace any possible modifications done to the system.

Once done you can be sure to have everything 100% original.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] sukamadika:
Thank you so much for this information. I'm in the process of running adb fastboot to check on the phone's status (I've read this is the way to check if the bootloader is locked).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] MightyAimetti:
ive been trying to read up on everything but it seems that a lot of the information assumes i know at least a little about what im going to do. I really dont know anything and the tilt will be my first wm phone ever. i have never flashed a phone before but i would love to use duttys rom that i came across on this site, please tell me if these steps are correct for flashing my tilt before i go ahead and try it (dont wanna mess it up)

1. first i will do the hard-spl flash to allow flashing of the roms on my tilt- found at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=334679 seems easy enough

2. i download duttys hybrid build no. 4

3. it seems like the easiest way to flash my tilt is to do it from a micro sd card? i found these steps at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=332246

1. Get a 128MB MicroSD card (or whatever size you like) and format it (***please make sure you format it, but not just delete all contents on it)

2. find the ROM image you would like to use, normally namede RUU_Sign.nbh, and rename it to "KAISIMG.nbh"

3. Plug the card into the phone, then enter boot loader mode by pressing down the Power and Camera buttons simultaneously, and using the stylus at the same time to press the RESET button at the left side. Continue pressing the two buttons for a few seconds after pressing and releasing the reset button until the bootloader screen appears. (taken from Wiki)

4. You will first see a tri-color screen then the information on the card. Press power button to start flashing.

5. After all these are done, press the reset button located at the bottom of the phone to reset the device.

4. Is flashing the rom really as easy as these steps ^ make it seem to be? just put duttys RUU_sign.nbh renamed to KAISIMG.nbh on the formatted card, then do the reset instructions and follow the rest?

thank for the time and responses, sorry if there are more simplified instructions somewhere, but i hope i figured it all out before i try this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] thomassster:
I actually think the easiest way is through activesync, clicking on the executable that is usually given. but your first 2 steps is right.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] MightyAimetti:
ok so if i do 1 and 2

then i just put both files (the exe and the nbh on the phone) and run the exe from the phone? and thats it? lol

also what would you say the chances are of a total noob (like me) bricking a $400 phone...

EDIT: so i assume this: To Flash a ROM or Radio simply use a tool to convert the .nb files in to .nbh format Dutty's NBH tool works great! then copy pof's Kaiser Custom_RUU into the same folder and then run the Custom_RUU and your device will start the upgrade process. With the new RUU when you flash a splash screen or radio only your device will not hard reset!

i dont have to do the conversion for duttys because the files are already .nbh, correct?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ecltech:
You don't put the .exe and .nbh on the phone. Make sure you have an Active Sync connection to the phone, extract the files to your PC and run the .exe. The .exe goes through pre-checks to make sure your phone is ready to flash. Just make sure you have HardSPL on your device before doing anything. Should be straight forward.

Good luck.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] MightyAimetti:
ooo ok, i havent gotten the phone yet so i dont really have any thing to look at im just reading up on it, but that clears most/ if not all of my questions thanks a lot - both of you =)

Hello everybody!

I was surfing through the web when i found this file uploaded on 4shared claiming to be an Engboot for SM-G930F.

Naturally, I was sceptical about this file, as I am completely uneducated about the nuts and bolts of Android, I could neither confirm or deny that this is a valid file or not, so I decided to post the link to XDA , so much more knowledgeable people can take a look at it and see if it is a valid file or not. I don't want to flash this file on (bought yesterday) my S7, so here I am!

If anybody is feeling brave enough to try this on their phone, please go ahead and tell if this worked or not

Disclaimer: I am not responsible in any way for bricked devices, this file is completely untested.

Edit: This is important because if this file works, you could thereotically flash anything you want WITHOUT tripping knox.

Also you can easily unbrick your phone by flashing the stock ROM if it comes to that.
