[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] babarjoya:
Good Evening,

I have Samsung galaxy alpha g850a AT&T. My device is rooted. after rooting with King Root I deleted Tethering provision apk to enable WiFi Hotspot. I didn't made backup for that. Now I need that apk in nodded form, so that I can enable WiFi Hotspot. I'm not satisfy with Foxfi/Pdanet. If someone have modded apk or the original Tethering Provision apk kindly share. I'll be grateful for that favor.

How you root your alpha?
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] LochNiss:

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] babarjoya:
I used Kingroot.
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] crashingout:
I tried to use the link to the version of Kingroot you posted via mega and it's encrypted - how about you help me get root so I can do some experimenting with this and help you :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shubhamdon99999:
Hello. I have bought a phone from one of the carriers in my country (they're everything, internet service providers, telephony-telecommunication for whole country, etc). I pay off that phone monthly, for a year, when my contract ends. With a phone I got a new phone number, their SIM card. Now, if I am to put another SIM card (another phone number) into my phone, it just doesn't recognize it, doesn't allow me to use that phone number, it acts as if SIM is not inside. (even if the SIM is from their own network)

So, I guess they did something to a phone, they limited him (blocked him somehow) so I can use only this provided SIM card from them, until my contract ends. I guess it's their way of insurance that I will pay the phone fully by the end of the contract. Anyone knows what exactly and how they did it? Is there a way to bypass this, like root the phone or something, so that I'm able to use another SIM cards aswell?

Phone is HTC ONE M9.

My wife has the D415 and the battery drains quite fast and the phone overheats. I also have a D415, but my battery life is fine. Would it be ok for us to just switch batteries, seeing as I don't really use mine? Thanks! :)
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] joshw0000:
Ok, let me start by saying that I'm fully capable of updating my phone with a computer, I'm just hoping there is a better way. So far every time I've downloaded a new firmware, update the flash-all.bat and run it, something will fail towards the end of the update and the only way I've been able to successfully update is by using one of those tool kits (forget which one, it's on my computer). I'm not that concerned about all of that with this thread. I'm wondering if there is a way to do it without a PC.

I'm on NMF26O (root, ElementalX, etc) and tried flashing Pure Nexus over the weekend. Since it's based on NMF26V, I kept receiving an error on boot about updating my vendor.img. So I downloaded that firmware, extracted it, and flashed the vendor.img in TWRP. That led to a plethora of other issues that I couldn't resolve by flashing the boot.img, reflashing the rom, ect. Several hours later I ended up flashing the boot.img and vendor.img for NMF26O, restoring my backup, re-installing Elemental, and rooting again.

Since these updates will be coming out every month, and roms will always be based on the latest update, I feel like I'll be pulling out the computer every month, downloading the updates, modifying the flash-all.bat, and running it through the tool, just to be able to update my rom. The first time I forget to update flash-all.bat, I'll lose the 60+ GB's I keep in internal storage. There has to be an easier way. TWRP is capable of flashing images. Has anyone been able to update without using a computer? I don't care if my radio is out dated, or something is mismatched as long as my phone works as intended.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] aholeinthewor1d:
Not sure why you ran into issues with PN. You need to be on the latest build NMF26U. You can flash the ROM via recovery. Then tku have to reboot once and go back to recovery and flash the V vendor image because the ROM is based on NMF26V. Each time a new ROM comes out on a new build you can flash in recovery.

If your talking about flashing stock OTAs via recovery that's not possible yet. No need to do this if you're going to be using custom ROMs though
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] joshw0000:
I'm on NMF26O. What's the difference between it and NMF26U and why would the vendor image from NMF26V work with NMF26U but not NMF26O?

Seems like all you would need is the /system from the rom, the vendor image, and maybe the boot image (or a custom kernel). I think I'm missing something here.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] aholeinthewor1d:
If you install PN its based on NMF26V. So unless you are already on that then you would need to flash the ROM, reboot back to recovery, then flash the NMF26V vendor image.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] farfromovin:
I'll play devil's advocate here... Yeah there is an easier way, use your Pixel stock and take OTA's. Enjoy a phone that always works, with or without a laptop!

I understand my audience and realize this isn't a popular mantra here but I felt exactly like you did with my 6p and vendor images. I got to the point where I sacrifice root now just for my own sanity. My phone works for me, not the other way around.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] zphantom55:
What I do is side load the full OTA ( which you can get from the same place you get the factory images ). I only use the fastboot boot version of TWRP so that my stock recovery stays in place. Then all you have to do is boot into the stock recovery, adb side load the OTA file and re root. Then you're fully up to date without worries of your data being wiped :laugh:!

( Although if you look in the flash fire thread from Chainfire, he's working on a version that will let rooted pixels flash otas like normal ones :fingers-crossed: )
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Josh_Walker:
I think you guys are missing the point. I have no desire to ever be stock, which rules out the possibility for an OTA in any form.

What I'm trying to figure out is exactly what is necessary to make a custom rom (based on the latest OTA), work if flashed over an older build, without first somehow applying the full OTA. Or is it impossible?

On just about every other phone I've owned, we could piecemeal the files needed for minor updates, along with a custom rom. The only time we'd have to flash a full update is for major updates ( 4 to 5 to 6, etc).
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] joshw0000:
Ok, I figured it out. Just download the OTA.zip (not the full firmware), flash in TWRP, immediately flash TWRP again, and reboot.

I'm now on nmf26u.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] aholeinthewor1d:
I don't think we can just flash OTAs in twrp yet. Haven't heard of Antone doing it. There is a beta Flashfire out that I guess works to flash updates. J have it but haven't needed to try it cause I'm running PN and DU
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] joshw0000:
I've done it several times tonight. Went from O to U to V, flashed Pure Nexus, screwed up the rom, restored to O, then O flashed back to U and V.

Just flash it like a rom in TWRP RC1. Make sure you flash TWRP again before rebooting if you want to keep it.

I can not install the ROM. Sure is my mistake. I ask you something, I always have to make the wipes before the flash?

Now i use twrp 3.0.2 by decker
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] persona78:
Sorry, system was corrupted in backup, very sorry about that. I think now all is ok. I can´t try this version becasue is for 6039S and 6039A, i have a 6039Y, it have a diferent kernel. My friend with 6039A help me and it tell me that is flashing ok now.

Would it be possible to have a kernel Android 7 Nougat really stock please with just these things there :

1) Build with DPLT kernel source

2) Latest Linux version 3.18.46, is always up to date

3) SeLinux is set to permissive

4) All samsung related configs disabled (as knox, tima, restrict rooting)

With just these 4 points it could be a stock kernel and more optimized knowing that the rest can pose problem because the nougat kernel has been reviewed and corrected compared to the old version.

Hope to be able to have a core as mentioned I thank you in advance !

Hello friends

I have long been searching for a theme engine for development Roms for the Xperia M2 device and finally found it. I wanted to share with you.

I would like to mention first that before I do these operations I receive a backup

You can find the substratum application on Google Play

There will be nothing on your screen after you download it. You have to download them yourself. I will use my favorite Pixel Ui theme

If you want to change the theme you downloaded, select them and activate them by touching the pink tie. Restart your device.

I do not accept any responsibility whatsoever you do. It may take up to 1 minute to turn on the device. If you take too long, restore the backup and try another rom.

WORKING ROMS

CyanogenMod 13

OmniRom 7.0 Beta 1

LineageOS Beta 2

WORKOUT ROMS

CyanogenMod 14.1 Beta 1

OmniRom 7.1 Beta 2

I do not know anything about being new to the forum. I am Turkish. I apologize for the few mistakes I made in English.

But now i'm using latest LOS 14.1 from 4pda,can i use substratum to??.. Or I'll just get a bootloop??

You can use the LOS 14.1 20170111 version ROM on 4pda. However, you can also use Omni Rom 7.0 Beta 1 on Xda. Results from other Nougat roms bootloop
[Sony Xperia M2] Princerapopo4:
Yes!!...confirmed..i instaled on LOS14.1 latest 4pda releas and i got random reboot.

Here we go again Samyy halts the S7 N updated .... I hate to bring the bad news but I am getting pissed with sammy

well we pay so high prices for Sammy's phones to get a good phone

First, it is so loaded with sammy's interface that kills the device resources.

Second the phones freezes more than ever all the sammys phones they freeze when they are coming from Idle state

third we got the updates very very very very late .... so when some others got alreadu Nougat and they are enjoying it for so many months

sammy decides to wait and wait and wait and then in the end at a point when we are about to get rid of the device sammy comes with here we go this is you update when I am waiting for my next phone to come in shipment :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

I am kinda pissed and I am guessing this might be the last Sammy phone.

this is too much

I'm actually disappointed in Samsung as well. My biggest complaint is that anyone willing to dish out $600+ on a phone should be able to do whatever they please to customize the phone to their liking. While everyone is enjoying the international version of the S7 with the Exynos octacore, the users on the US version running snapdragon quadcore are locked down with pretty much nothing to do. I've had several issues with my phone. The phone is loaded with 339 apps and I can't uninstall them. I can disable them, but there are still services running in the background and the awesome piece of hardware doesn't even work properly because all the resources are consumed by the numerous amounts of bloatware. I get people's frustration about the phone. I've tried cleaning it as much as I can, but it doesn't matter because even with all the greenify, forcedoze, leandroid tweaks it still drains more battery than it should and the performance is mediocre at best. The only thing I can say is Samsung does a great job with their camera's. I too ended up having to buy a new phone because I didn't want to keep playing with this thing just so that it operates like I want it to. I don't even use it for gaming or anything like that. Just multitasking, social media every now and then and that's all. Touchwiz is very laggy, and I don't blame people to be frustrated. That's just my opinion though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] -Ric-:
Honestly it's your fault. You should have researched about the phone, in specific that variant before buying it. There were PLENTYYYY of sites online, Including XDA who reported that the bootloader was locked in the Snapdragon US variants.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] m0d hipp¥:
I def do my research. I'm no novice when it comes to technology. I just think if you're buying something for $600 it would be fair to have a device that works properly. Not lags.. Wouldn't you agree?

I have an international S6 that is unlocked, but that phone has spotty LTE connection due to the bands. With the S7 I would run into the same issue if I were to get the international version.

The bootloader is only a small thing. The BIG issue is the lag and resource constraints in the phone. There is no need for all the bloatware. That's all I'm saying.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] takerhbk:
Which model you use? I have zero lag

I just installed BTU rom on my Galaxy s7 and then i immediately received nougat
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] m0d hipp¥:
Well you have the 930F - exynos octacore as I mentioned above

I have the compatible one with my carrier which is the SM-G930T

I'm not sure if the processor is the only difference in the performance. I'm assuming in terms of the software is concerned, it should be fairly similar in ROM's. However as I mentioned above I have 339 apps that come stock on my phone. This includes all the t-mobile apps, samsung apps, system apps etc... Now I'm not sure which ones are the ones that are so resource heavy, but I'm telling you when I switch between apps in the background there is a delay. When I scroll through a website there is a delay, when I read news from flipboard there is a delay. In terms of battery usage, I've used greenify, forcedoze, leanify and a few other apps that people on here recommended and the apps did help, but it still didn't really improve the performance. The CPU governor is set to interactive. I know I can raise the clock to make it more responsive, but I shouldn't have to do that at the cost of my battery and life of my phone. I think Samsung does an amazing job with the hardware they provide for the user; it's the software that I believe is throttling the heck out of the performance. However for those of you that have no complaints, it seems it's because you're on the Exynos version. The snapdragon version unfortunately has more issues than just the bootloader being locked.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] iridaki:
This a flawed argument. Samsung, and any other company for that matter, sells their phones as is. You know what you're getting into, especially in this day and age. Extensive, in-depth reviews are available from even before the official release. And the $600+ you're paying do not buy customisation, nobody ever claimed such thing. Your money buys the design, the hardware, the software (as is at the time of purchase and future updates that will become available if and when Samsung sees fit) and, of course, the brand name. If you don't like it, you simply do not go ahead with a purchase. It's as simple as that really. While the "perfect phone" is an elusive dream and, yes, we all would change a thing or two about our device, buying a phone only to come here and whine about your disappointment is counterproductive and, frankly, borderline pathetic. If I had a penny for every "this is my last Samsung phone" I read here, I'd be able to afford the S8, SIM-free.
