[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozo012:
Hey Guys,

I noticed something strange with my phone this morning and it has gotten progressively worse throughout the day. Has anyone encountered something like this? Originally this started off with a large set of vertical green pixels (as seen in the first picture). Then a further degrading of this with purple blotches as seen in the 2nd pic, and I'm pretty sure my display is dead now as I can swipe up and feel the haptic feedback but can't see anything on the screen.

The phone isn't bent in any way so I'm guessing that the connection inside the phone went bad. I know a repair guy who is pretty handy but I want to see if anyone knows what I am up against.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
My phone is under extended warranty and I had the same/similar issue.

I didn't see it happen but my screen was dark and I could not get it to display anything.

I shipped in and they sent a replacement.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5.1:
Hello definitely a hardware issue. At least I already seen this before and the screen was dead. My wife used to have an LG G2 and it displayed those weird purple smudges all over the screen after one of our daughter crushed it walking on the device.

Do you eventually sit on chairs with your phone in your back pocket?

Good luck...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozo012:
I'm definitely not under warranty as I bought this 2nd hand off eBay. Was someone's phone that had the Google Account lock on it that I bypassed.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eric214:
I wouldn't buy a phone 2nd hand off Ebay. I hear to many bad things. Use Swappa in the future brotha!

That is most certainly a defective digitizer. I'm guessing a stress was placed to the digitizer at some point or heat/cold maybe?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozo012:
Bought it for $400 in Jan 2016 when it was 3-4 months old since someone didn't know how to bypass the Google Factory reset lock. Most other 128GB were going for $650+ at the time. Ebay/ Swappa would have ended up in the same place regardless. I don't blame Ebay for this experience but I have not bought many phones from them regardless. At least 6+ purchases on Swappa and all have been great. Taking to my local repair guy who I trust very much who quoted me for $195 to do the work and replace the board which is worth it to me.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozo012:
This ironically has been in a Supcase Unicorn Beetle case since day 1. I am guessing that the phone being on the larger side of my front right pocket definitely has pressure put on it which likely caused this.

Thanks a lot, I've been running the DBT / German version on my US T810 for a while now since it gets updates first and just got Nougat OTA. Recommend all users use the manual kies update here and get 7.0 right away: smoother, better multi tasking / split screen and adds reading mode/blue light filter. Also has April 1 security update.Will post on battery life later once it settles in but Samsung really delivered on this one. A major reason for tab s3 just went away (at least for a few months).
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Daruniafx:
Thank you [MENTION=4190491]Extreemator[/MENTION], I flash it with Odin and is working incredibly.

It is fast, stable and has a very nice UI, comes with Grace UX installed as the main interface, so the order of some options is different. The floating windows have two options, the first is the traditional Samsung split windows and the second is the native implementation of Nougat.

Until this moment it has working great, without lag, will have to see how the battery performs on the next days. The fingerprint reader is not fast and effective as it should be, but it does its job.

Just a reminder, for those who come from an NOT samsung rom (aka RR or LOS), it is necessary to clean caches after flashing the rom, otherwise you will have constantly crashes. You can access to the Samsung recovery by using this key combination: Power + volume up + home

Edit:

I have an USA región tab, but German work very well. When SC arrive I update it.

I flashed SuperSU from this thread

Initially it didn't work (or maybe I did something wrongly​). So I flashed SuperSU from this thread

It ended in a bootloop, but I flashed the first SuperSU again and it worked.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] acupunk:
Can I flash this in twrp? Or do I need to use Odin?
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Daruniafx:
Only with Odin.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] acupunk:
Thanks. Will it wipe data? I'm on a us rom. I assume I will have to replace twrp afterwards. Thanks for your patience. I'm relatively new to Samsung flashing.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Daruniafx:
Yes it will wipe all your data. Make sure you have a backup of your data and extract your sd card just for precaution.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ashyx:
HC, flashing zips not intended for your device just because it says nougat in the title?!

I'm not surprised it didn't work considering you also flashed the kernel for that device.

Lucky for you supersu made a backup of your stock boot.img and restored it the second time you flashed the correct zip.

Next time I suggest you get it from source not from some third party thread.

From what I understood, that zip works in both S6 and Note 5, so it didn't seem a device specific kernel. However, i already knew the risks and how to recover my device in case of brick.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Masteryates:
Dirty flashed using Odin from stock 6 initially but 7 was really laggy. :eek:

After a factory reset performance is better but still not as smooth as 6. Will give it a few weeks before I think of going back.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Daruniafx:
It is necessary to clean caches after flashing the rom, otherwise you will have constantly crashes or bootloops or laggy. You can access to the Samsung recovery by using this key combination: Power + volume up + home, then chose clean cache.

If this don´t work try to flash Marshmellow official rom, then Nougat and finally clear caches.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] andyroidking:
I did a clean install wipe everything including internal storage. Then I installed your TWRP. But when I try to install the beta Super SU I have no Wi-Fi. If I install the stable Super SU I have no brightness display control. Any ideas what is happening?
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Daruniafx:
I have the same issue after install twrp and stable Super Su, probably some Samsung Gift to everyone how root the Tab S2. I will try with Magisk.

Edit:

Confirmed with Magisk everything work like a charm.

You misinterpret it, the fastness is the same, or there are some particular issue with your tablet. I flashed it over 6.0.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Swarovski Swizzle:
No because the T810 and the T715 use Exynos chipsets while the T713 use Snapdragon. Afaik it's not possible to do what you want to do because of the different hardware.

(please correct me if I'm wrong though)
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ashyx:
No not possible, but I don't understand the reason for the question anyway?

Why not just use the correct firmware?
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] :
Because it's not there yet. And people can't wait.

Afaik there is no update for the Qualcomm powered 2016 models there yet.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] andyroidking:
I haven't had 5g working for the last 2-3 updates. I usually only use the cellular south (xar), so it didnt phase me it didn't work on the German.... All is well so far other than that. Once I got rid of some bloat this Rom is running fine. Actually Samsung has done a fantastic job with their ui. Also I'm very surprised we got 2 android version upgrades at all on this 2 year old tablet. They usually abandon us.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] acupunk:
Really? Is been working fine for me until this update. Any feedback on how to fix 5 ghz wifi would be greatly appreciated.

"Cellular South Inc. d.b.a. C Spire[1] headquartered in Ridgeland, Mississippi, is the sixth largest wireless provider in the United States and the largest privately held wireless provider in the United States." Probably an old alliance with Samsung. They push stock US updates through that name.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Blars1206:
Has anyone else noticed the battery draining incredibly fast while on a call? My battery went from 81% to 67% after a 15 minute call. The battery doesn't go down anywhere near that pace during any other function I've used it for so far. In fact, if I don't make or receive any calls, it lasts all day. I checked battery usage and it was only at 2%, which is definitely not right and there was nothing else showing up under usage that could have been the culprit. I've had the phone for 1 1/2 weeks now and it is definitely the only time it happens.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] skyfox99:
What network?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Blars1206:
Sprint
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] skyfox99:
Check how strong your coverage is. Sometimes weak signal will drain your battery considerably faster.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Blars1206:
Someone else mentioned that as well, but I had full bars even it happened. What's even more weird... When I only have 2 bars, the battery drops less while on a call. It's the strangest thing I've come across on the phone. I love everything else about it and I'm going to keep it regardless. I appreciate your input! Hopefully someone else has this experience and can find a cause. I thought I was very knowledgeable on Android and had seen everything since I've been on it since the original G1 (which I still have lol), but it's a new one for me. I also don't get the complaints about the camera...I was in the backyard taking pictures today, just test it out, and it's definitely better than my S7. Anyway, thanks again for taking the time to respond and help with ideas and if you think of another one, let me know!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electricpete1:
I am currently stuck for 45+ minutes at the google reboot splashscreen (4 colorful spinning dots that eventually should turn into the word android once reboot is complete).

I followed an update procedure that I have used many times (last done November 16), although some of the files involved are somewhat old.

Starting from November 16 update for Marshmallow:

1 - Fastboot-Flashed that March 2017 factory image for Marshmallow (yes, there is still a Marshmallow... I dont' want Nougat yet). Flashed all partitions except data and recovery.

2 - Reboot directly into TWRP (I believe it is TWRP 3.0.2... I haven'te changed it recently)

3 - In TWRP: Flash superuser BETA-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550 i

4 - In TWRP: Clear space from app/system by deleting foreign language directories (to make room for xposed)

5 - IN TWRP: Flash xposed xposed-v79-sdk23-arm

6 - In TWRP - initiate reboot to system.

7 - As system rebooted, I entered my PIN.

That's where I am now. Note I never saw a screen for "optimizing apps" that was expected. I

Note I never rebooted to android system, so I'm not sure which step caused the problem (it was a method I developed to update quicker although in retrospect rebooting each step to check would be smarter).

I have some ideas of what to do eventually: (retry my flash one step at a time)

BUT, I don't know how to do anything with a phone that is stuck on the splashscreen:

* It does not respond to key combination on/volume-down (which normally goes to fastboot)

* When plugged into pc, it does not respond to fastboot devices

* There is no battery pull option on this phone.

What to do next to get control of my phone... let the battery run out on the splash screen?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electricpete1:
Hmmm. Weird. Just held power-on and vol-down and it took me briefly to a different screen (android?) and then promprted for PIN, then back to splashscreen.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electricpete1:
I kept pressing that combo and eventually did get into fastboot.

Now I'll flash again.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5.1:
Hello. Not sure what caused your problem. Also, i don't use Xposed...

Just a heads up... Your SuperSU is really really old. Just use this one:

https://download.chainfire.eu/1021/SuperSU/SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip

Good luck...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The version of SuperSU he used likely was the cause of the bootloop.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electricpete1:
I reflashed the system and then flashed newer files:

SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip

xposed-v87-sdk23-arm

(with a reboot between flashing SU and flashing xposed).

Everything booted up fine.

Problem solved.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofir786:
I've not really dealt with the dual sim model before but you should try the usual. Such as carrying out a factory reset, if that doesn't work you can use smart switch to reload firmware, if after all that it still doesn't work then it might point to a fault with that sim slot.

If it is under warranty still you will need it repaired, the issue is pointing to a hardware fault.

[Touch Cruise General] isv51:
It has AutoFocus so you can take macro photos with it, but it's not the best... i've seen on mobile review or an other site lot of macro pictures i think pictures of flowers or something else...
[Touch Cruise General] mattxda:
excellent, thanks. Hopefully it will focus ok. Out of interest, can you override the autofocus and do the focusing manually ?

cheers all
[Touch Cruise General] isv51:
I don't know if i understood what you mean... I hope this is the right answer:

You can't manually focusing with a mobile phone. For ME "manually focusing" means to focus an object or something by rolling the objective on the camera.

I don't think that you mean this... Can you specify it more?

Edit: Here's a macroshot: Macro HTC Touch Cruise
[Touch Cruise General] Jimbo9:
AFAIK only LG Viewty has manual focus. It means it enables you to focus on object of your choice (near or far) while with autofocus you sometimes must have a little luck for an algorithm to choose the right object to focus on.
[Touch Cruise General] mattxda:
ahh ok, cheers for your help. Hopefully the auto-focus will be quite good :)
[Touch Cruise General] robinVerdegaal:
I think it'll work just fine, it'll autofocus perfectly on macro distance.
[Touch Cruise General] nahguam:
He probably means something like on the Hermes where you have a little slider to switch between normal and macro shots.
