[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] WraithBlade993:
Good Morning All,

I did a search for this but didn't come up with anything specific so apologies in advance if it does exist somewhere. After a long time owning an S7 under Verizon service I finally took the plunge and Rooted him. Works Beautifully so Hat off to the Warriors. I see that Flashfire can Perform backups and restores without having to utilize a custom recovery.

My Question is has anyone tested Backing up and restoring on a Verizon S7? If so can you provide Experiences, results, what paritions/items listed in flashfire backup was performed on, Workarounds if needed and of course Failures. If it is more advantageous to flash a custom recovery instead of using flashfire. Which one is preferable i/e TWRP/Clockwork Mod. Please excuse me as the last time I had rooted and romed an android fully was my Moto Droid. (LOCKED BOOT LOADER ON THAT ONE "Safe Strap used" :mad:)

Just to be clear again this is for my Rooted Verizon Galaxy S7 Debloted and Lag fix applied.

Gratsi me Android Familia.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] CVertigo1:
FlashFire is the ONLY recovery that can be used other than stock, but not as a replacement to the stock recovery. The backup and restore feature is amazing on the S7, but you need to have it installed/operating first. I mean that if you do a backup and wipe the phone, you will need to re-root and install FlashFire before being able to restore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] WraithBlade993:
That makes sense. Really so Clockwork and TWRP cannot be used? Prob because the bootloader is still locked right? Like I said is been a minute since I've been through the entire Process.

If flash fire is the only viable method other than stock, obviously that will be my Choice I may try the Stock too.

Additional Question about items to backup. The items/partitions marked below that are marked protected. will the restore perform without errors since they are marked as protected? Or are there specific Items only that should be backed up besides system and data?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Blade22222:
I just use normal and have restored with no problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] KB!:
I was curious about this as well... Thanks for answering.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] brandon79:
ok i see some of you are using the backup restore feature in flashfire but when i do a normal backup i deselect internal storage but the problem is that it keeps repeating over and over again listing the partitions see screenshot i know my explanation isnt very clear so is this normal or am i doing somethinv wrong. and this is on a rooted galaxy s7 verizon on nougat firmware

Edit: restarted phone and it works now

Hello. I didn't get the 3.5.5 update but directly got 3.5.6. Now I am losing network in sim 1 every now and then. I see this is a known issue and was fixed in 3.5.6 but I am still getting it. Any idea how to fix this?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makorus:
Completely re-flash the 3.5.6 and wipe everything before doing that. I've absolutely no issues with OOS 3.5.6. :)
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sajalkmitra:
I got it through OTA update. Should I factory reset?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makorus:
Hi there

I'd recommend to download a fresh full 3.5.6 ROM (check the OnePlus 2 General forum, I saw it there) and start from scratch, that's what I did. Hope it helps!
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sajalkmitra:
Thanks. I will try that.

[SuperSU] Viesuliss:
Hello people.

So i got a custom recovery (TeamWin project). I disabled OEM Unlock on purpose, because i thought it wouldn't show the red line up in the bootscreen.

After trying to reboot, it wouldn't reboot, and i can't go into Recovery mode. I can't install any custom firmware too, because i've got the OEM Unlock set to "off"

Can someone please help, i can't find a topic similiar to my case, where i've bricked my phone and have no idea what to do.

Thanks to all those who are tying me to help <3.
[SuperSU] mr.natural:
As long as you can get it in the download mode you can use fastboot with a PC.
[SuperSU] Viesuliss:
It doesn't recognize my device. I have tried every single tutorial found on google and still can't seem to unlock my bootloader.

Can't flash recovery nor the official stock firmware.
[SuperSU] mr.natural:
If you are on Windows you have to install the right (usb)driver.
[SuperSU] Viesuliss:
No luck with that. I installed. Restarted my computer and device.

Went in to download mode and nothing shows up.

Look and ask on the forum/thread of your device

I will post more pics from him as soon as i will receive them.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Alexander13:
Welcome to the world of Android updates.

The company releases the update in waves to unlocked phones.

If your devices is carrier specific it goes through your carrier first and then it becomes available for your device.

Well i jiat got it from repair. And before it was carrier specific but now they installed some poland firmware on it so i think its not carrier specifix anymore. Does that mean faster update?

I did not participate to the beta program.

Currently I'm Slovakia after reading this thread I manually checked for updates and it is currently downloading a big update. (1291.19MB)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] igor.brasildroid:
Yes.. VERIFIED, the Nougat (7.0) for BTU is now OUT for everyone!

Just checked the Samsung OTA Server and it shows up both versions for S7 and S7 Edge (G930F/G935F).

The UPDATE is the same Beta Program User's received, they only got it a little bit earlier than everyone but its the same they already have/should have on their Phone probably.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bolvaron:
do you have a link to the OTA-Server?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] igor.brasildroid:
I do have a Link, but it can't be use to download Firmware.

It can only be used to check the lasted info about released firmwares and builds for your device.. which can be any Samsung device, in every country! But with that INFO you'll then be able to Download the Firmware thru SamFirm which can be found here on XDA.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Bolvaron:
isnt Samfirm discontinued?

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ameel:
Hi guys,

I'm here looking for answers. Any ideas how to upgrade HTC 10 (taiwanese version, not locked to any carrier) to Nouget/Android 7? There hasn't been any OTA updates for a long time. I have stock rom (non-root, non unlocked). Is there any official release whatsoever?

I tried following the manual instructions here http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-10/news/

It reboots to download mode, but update software gets error when trying to 'update signature' after a few seconds only. Basically gives me 'ERROR [155]: UNKNOWN ERROR'.

Phone gets stuck with the blue bar fully loaded. Nothing works until I restart the phone using power + volume down for about 20 seconds.

This takes me to 'htc download mode' which tells me that file /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/2PS6IMG.zip File NOT FOUND. i then just hit 'reboot' to reboot to normal OS.

Ideas please?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Jadraker:
Hi,

I've the same device as you and I converted it to US unlocked and I'm enjoying Nougat since that. Did you changed CID and MID to USA?

Please follow these three steps and you'll be enjoying Nougat quickly: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70275461&postcount=2
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ameel:
Thanks mate. That seems like a load of trouble, considering I'll have to root, get a license for sunshine, etc. I wanted to stay as legit as possible with this phone. In any case, thanks for the reply. BTW, does Nougat SERIOUSLY improve battery life? What are your observations?

Is there any indication that HTC will or won't support Android 7/Nougat for taiwanese phones? It's pretty hypocritical that they still haven't IMO (may be unrelated, but for me the main reason I bought the HTC 10, while I was in Taiwan, was to support Taiwan).
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Jadraker:
It's confirmed that Nougat will be available for Asian and European editions of HTC 10 but when is the question. Another reason to change to USA rom are others updates. It's almost sure that Android 7.1 or future releases will be available to USA devices early than the rest of the world.

It's not necessary to root indeed my device is not rooted and the bootloader is an official one.

About the update I can say that battery last a little more (4-5%) but the main difference is the performance of the smartphone. It feels more responsive opening apps and the double tap back button to change between apps is very nice in terms of multitasking. Also night mode is a good enhancement and the ability to reply using notifications too. It feels like a modern OS unlike Marshmallow that for me is old for 2016 devices. Just my opinion.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ameel:
Thanks mate. Much appreciated. However, you do need to root in order to use sunshine right? So it's a no go for me for now... I've emailed HTC to ask about intentions and dates. Let's hope they reply.
