i could see the possibility of that happening to the battery though, funny story i have my uni with its original from the box when the device was first released battery and needless to say its old, ive had it shutdown as high as 85%.

i was cleaning the garbage room in the building that i work at and i found a creative zen PMC (the one that ran windows) battery looks very similar to the uni and amazingly this device was still sealed (for 4 years!) the battery life was extremely bad on the zen and i was trying to work it back up the same way as i did for the uni, and like i said the battery looks similar and had enough visual, battery life and pin placement similarity's one day i go to use my zen and the screen stayed white, i never thought much about it but i kept trying to exercise both battery's, one day when i had the zen charging in a back yard i heard a pop and sure enough it was my zen's battery all i did was charge it in the ways consistent to trying to bring back some of the life of the batt & sometimes the pin trick as it can be done on more then one device and it was as i've done with other pocket pc phones,laptops and mp3 players and ive never brought the zen outside except for two occasions and it popped thankfully with no one around so do heed the warnings its not a often thing but we don't want anyone to get hurt

you might have to get a new one last time i tried that with a nextel battery it never worked again so you might have to look at ebay or another battery source, go for a 4800mAh one! :D i am and i cant wait for it to show up and hope that it will be as high capacity as i hope
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] wuzy:
Well, whoever is the idiot that wrote in the wiki that over-discharging li-ion battery can explode I had it removed months ago. Plain stupidity, nothing more.

Li-ion can only explode if under extreme heat or through manufacturing defect *cough*SONY cells*cough*

The taping pin trick to recalibrate battery worked great for me btw.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] evilv:
Funny things happened in the battery department since the last time I posted here about batteries. I have had three new batteries and none of them worked properly. The first one I got off ebay and it seemed to run out even quicker than the two year old one did. After a few days, it seemed to not even charge up after eight hours so I sent it back. I then bought another of a different type from a seller on Amazon and that behaved in the same kind of way - the Universal just ran out in no time. It also seemed to take a full 8 hours to charge up which was unheard of with the original battery. I was most annoyed and phoned the company who sent me a new one the next day. Same old story.

By now, I began to wonder if the problem was in the Universal or at least WM5 and its perception of the battery voltage, so I did the tape over the pin trick and discharged it fully, then removed the tape and put it on charge.

Guess what? It was fully charged in three and a half hours and it has been running since 3.30 AM this morning made a couple of five minute calls and sent three texts. Now, 16 hours later the battery meter is at 75%.

I don't pretend to understand what is going on here, but I now suspect that the problems I have been having were about the WM5 system trying to apply old assumptions about the meaning of measured voltage for an old battery to new ones with slightly different characteristics. Why would flattening a battery make it charge up in the normal 3 and a half hours rather than 8? And why would having done that to a brand new after market generic battery allow it to perform so differently in terms of its run down time?

I still have the spare amazon dealer's battery - they didn't ask for it back, so I can perform another experiment. In a couple of days when I am happy that this battery is working as it should (I think it probably is now, but I need to run it down and see how it behaves) I will swap in the other new and previously not working battery without the flattening business with the taped over contact, and see if it comes back as normal. I think it probably will do and that will mean that the problem I have had is one of WM5 not knowing how the new batteries work regarding voltage and capacity. I suppose it is possible that a generic battery might have a slightly different voltage than the original so this may be the cause. If the undrained new battery doesn't perform properly when it is put into the Universal, then I will know that the new batteries need to be completely drained which sounds ridiculous. If that was typical, the makers would have warned users about it in the packaging.

I'll keep you posted.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] PalDragan:
Discharge via electro-motor

Just to add my experience here,and add a stupid question.

I have 2 batteries,one was going off at 20%,the newer one at 2-10%,depends what i am doing on the device,if nothing then at 2-3,if i play music or do any other operations on it - at 10%. So i tried one of the discharging methods i read about somewhere,with a little electro-motor or led,even better. I discharged both of my batteries 2 times with a electromotor,being obvious that this motor could not discharge the battery TOTALLY,cuz it requires much more power than a simple led. The newer battery works the same now,but the older one - refuses to charge AT ALL. When i plug in the wall charger,it turns the device on,but after 2 seconds when it should start charge the battery and the orange led starting to shine-it turns off. On usb-it won't even start the phone,all i get is red light blinking fast (the LED). So beware and watch out. You can lose a battery. And.. if anyone has possible knowledge about if there is a way to make this battery charge/work, erm erm , don't hesitate - i'm ready to experiment til exploding the battery :)

EDIT: after some more searching,i found a solution. I zapped my battery with a 9V battery,connected + to + and - to minus - ,with 2 wires,and held it like that for 2 seconds. Immediatelly after this,i tried it,and it is charging :) battery was showing 10% when the OS booted. Hurra :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DaKing:
.....

man just wanted to tell u that i did what u said and when i opened the status of the battery it was unknown but it turned off after 5 min ( at 96% ) nthing happened what should i do now am for my next step ( putting the battery in the freezer lol )
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] ihsan777:
listen dey dont explode while being completely discharged but they do leak out and become useless after being discharged with motors and if they are overcharged they do explode but not like dat shown in youtube but just leakout with a little smoke and nothing more than dat as i said these batteries are almost imposible to over charge unless and until the circuit inside the li-on polymer is broken someway or not working and the real use of these li-on batteries is like the batteries on laptops and note books coz its the same thing u can completely charge ur uni and let the charger in while u work on it at home like people do it with there laptops and unplug it wen u r on the go so u will have 100% charge wen u leave ur home and to prove it once u charge ur uni to 100% and dont let the charger out and keep charging and wen u touch the bak of uni it will be cool rather dan warm while it was getiing charged to 100%. the reason is dat once its charging is full and complete the circuit inside the batery stops the charger from charging the batery anymore and gives the charger's dc power directly to the uni instead pf being getting charged just like in laptops
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gazeko:
Hello,

so my sister droped her phone in water and gave it to me to repair it. Because it didn´t boot up at all I cleaned the motherboard with isopropanol. After this I charging worked but I was still stuck in the powered by android screen. (The phone tries to reboot every 10 seconds or so). I did flash twrp and could save all of her data via mtp. After that I tried to flash a custom rom, a stock rom with samsung smart switch and a stock one via odin. It always did work but the phone is still stuck in the powered by android screen and wont boot up :confused:

Is there anything left I can do or is the phone lost?

Thank you very much for your help!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ragazzza:
Looks like too much mess with hardware, do youself a favour and do not mess with it anymore and get a help from 3rd party service (not samsung ofc, they would charge you a hell of a lot)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gohan040:
Sounds really familiar. I do repair phones for my work and a customer with a custom ROM had the same problem. I also tried everything, custom ROM, stock ROM, update, downgrade, etc... Nothing worked. Keeps rebooting. In the end a mainbord swap was the only solution. I'm afraid , especially after water damage , this could be the case with your s6.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gazeko:
Hmm ok I already thought so, I just wanted to get sure. Thank you for your help!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vforvlive:
Last option before going to 3rd party sercvice....

Put the mainboard in rice for 24-48 hours and then check again!

it worked for me on my old Note 3;)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ragazzza:
true!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gazeko:
I already bathed the mainboard in Isopropanol for 48 hours. There shouldnt be any water left by now :( She will probably sell the display and buy a new phone because a new mainboard would be to expensive.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] MWFD:
I just took the update to Nougat and I hate the little window that comes up when I receive a call on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. On Marshmallow, I had installed an old version of the Google Dialer ( v 2..05.07_rc4 I believe) but I am having trouble disabling the default dialer on Nougat. Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the default Samsung dialer on Nougat and use the Google Dialer (any version)? Or am I wasting my time?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] fbroce:
re dialer

I didn't like the all white dialer in Nougat so I installed the material dark theme and that made both

the dialer and drop down menus look better. I would like the pixel dialer or something similar however

the one's I have tried (apk's) crashed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] MWFD:
Do you know of a way to make the notification drop down tray dark? Every theme I try doesn't change the notification drop down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] fbroce:
re notifications tray

The quick menus are dark however the notifications are not. I notice now the blue led notification doesn't seem to be

working either. Short answer no.

I did get the led notifications to work after adding an app (light manager). I expect if I erase and reset it would work but

I don't want to do that at the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Antonius138:
There is an updated version of Google Phone that works on S7E Nougat. Search for "Google Phone 4.1.135571529-nonnexus" on apkmirror. It might not be the most current version (which is 8.x) but it still works and might not be as whacky for you as the Samsung dialer. Please note that you need to also download the Google Contacts app, because if you want to disable the Samsung dialer you are actually disabling the Samsung Contacts app as this is the actual "phone" app that shows up in your app drawer. If you want to disable the Samsung phone and contacts apps make sure to not disable any of the apps listed as "phone".

Hope this helps!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] MWFD:
So then which apps do I disable to get rid of the Samsung dialer and contacts apps?

Also, what version of Google Contacts do I download?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Antonius138:
I disabled "Contacts" com.samsung.android.contacts the one with the orange icon and just that app only. I then downloaded the most current version of the dialer and I then downloaded Google Contacts version 1.6.20 which is the most current version.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] MWFD:
Great! Thank you.

Were you able to get search results working in the dialer? That seems to be the only thing I'm lacking. Otherwise, this is awesome. Thanks again!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jrkruse:
Nope that won't work and no missed call notications
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] MWFD:
Is there any newer version of this dialer that syncs with contacts? Right now, the "contacts" portion of the dialer app shows every contact I've ever contacted ever rather than the customized list I have in my separate contacts app.

Thanks!

I've seen some posts about updates to official Nougat failing, so I decided to upload the update.zip to get to Nougat. I'd like to note that I didn't update using the update.zip method, so let me know if anyone runs into any issues. Hopefully this helps you guys out.

1) Make sure you are on official NON-ROOTED PI3. Also, make sure you enable any disabled packages.

2) Create a folder on your SD card named fota.

3) Download this zip and rename it to update.zip, then put it in the fota folder you created.

4) Turn off the phone and boot into recovery-volume up+home+power at the same time.

5) Wait a minute for the dead android to go away and recovery finally boots, then select update from SD card. Select the update.zip.

Here is the Odin files for PI3 for those that need it. G930VVRU4API3

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] CVertigo1:
The best advice I have is to Odin all four PI3 files, but not Home_CSC. It will give you the cleanest install and take everything else out of the equation. I'd backup everything with Smart Switch first, then restore it all after updating.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Adaken13:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] CVertigo1:
Probably not, but you are welcome to try. If it doesn't work, then flash back to PI3 and update from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Crsdr37:
Also if you use package disabler pro like most of us. Ensure you go back into there and enable all bloatware you can re-disable after the update goes through

I think it's not reasonable use that tool just to avoid bootloop.

Better will be underclocking to 1440MHz or lower just to avoid overheating.

For your problem extract that file from stock fw kdz and replace it. Then set underclock in kernel Adiutor
