I've just created this thread for everyone to share their favourite profiles. I've seen similar threads to this but they have been for viper4android and aren't very active. I was hoping people could share what they use for it. I'm personally looking for a rap profile especially for music like Eminem. If someone can share a good profile for that I would really appreciate it. :)

This is what I'm using currently but looking for something better for rap/hip hop music.

Can any1 tell me where's the settings options to press/click when u r in a app or home screen? Normally just either holding recent or back button.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] benwalburn:
Are you talking about the menu button? That's been depreciated for a while. The few apps that still need it have an extra button on the navbar. Home menu stuff is accessed through long presses.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] PapaWangsta:
Damn, this sucks. Yes, 3 dot menu button. I have an app doesn't show menu button.

For home screen long press all those 3 nav buttons, none working. Except, long press home button, Google now pops up.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] benwalburn:
I don't know about the app. I suppose you could use something like Button Savior to create a menu button.

What are you trying to do with your home screen? Try long pressing an empty space to get launcher options.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] PapaWangsta:
Yep, thought about button savior. Not much options.

Shoot, wish there's 3 dot menu options available at all times without rooting the phone. Bummer.

So I use the stock email app. But for some reason it loses authentication of all my accounts constantly. When it does it asks me to retype in the password. But it won't actually let me do it.

I think the stock email is the best email out there (except apples mail app on iOS). So I don't want to is another. But I have this problem too, or something similar. It's just stops syncing and the only way to get it to restart is to reboot or go to account settings and force a resync by going past 'enter password'.

I find it smoother and faster to work with than any of the third party packages. Just my opinion.

Actually I had the same problem with Outlook, which uses OSS authentication, what I did, it was to revoke all permission on my accounts, then clean the cache on the app.

Another way it's to use IMAP settings.

Hi,

I already unlock the bootloader. I see

Device is UNKLOCKED. Status Code: 3

It's not the first phone I have TWRP installed. That phone appear to be lock or something else.

61.00 (sha-130760b, 2016-08-24 12:39:46)

When I fastboot

flash recovery twrp.img

I see Okay message on my Windows cmd but I see mismatched partition size (recovery)

I cannot boot in my custom recovery partition.

Can you help me please!!!

Thank you!
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gus Ghanem:
So you get the latest fastboot from here:

https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html

The latest TWRP for Victara here: (I still use twrp-3.0.2-2-victara.img)

https://dl.twrp.me/victara/

https://eu.dl.twrp.me/victara/

You put the phone in bootloader mode and connect it, then type:

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (whatever the name of the .img file is)

Then use the volume rocker only to launch recovery.

The mismatch error is not a problem, you get it because you're flashing a non-stock recovery, but it still works.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metabsd:
Hi,

Thanks to reply to my thread :)

I already try multiple time to flash the recovery with the latest SDK Tool. I also use the same twrp.img file.

I read about a potential problem after the august 2016 update of Motorola and I have that update already install.

I think I have to flash back to a older version (if it's possible) and retry the same twrp recovery flash.

Do you know something about that possible latest patch lock ...

Thank you!

I have an XT1097 RETCA, it was updated to the latest stock firmware MPES24.49-18-7, no issues, I've been flashing TWRP and custom ROMs for a couple of years on it.

Don't try to downgrade your stock firmware, if you try to downgrade the bootloader or partition table, you'll brick the phone. Just reflash the latest stock firmware, and try again, because sometimes partitions get corrupted.

In bootloader mode type this, and copy and save the info for your reference:

fastboot getvar all

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] denson9874:
I was able to get my hands on the U.S. non carrier firmware for the G950U. The question is, without OEM unlock option, will it successfully flashed via Odin? Has anyone already tried? If so, what was the result?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] insomnia:
can you share this firmware ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] djxn40:
Yes. I have the same version. Not having the oem is like having it ticked on. So you are good to go. Would love to get my hands on that firmware so I can start testing. I also need G955U. Any chance of a link or mention of where you got it?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] denson9874:
Re: Firmware Download, Testing, and Results from Odin Flashing

I can upload and post link, which may take awhile, or you can use SamFirm ( https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647 ), which is the same program I used to download the odin firmware. I cheated by using SamMobile to confirm CSC code to input into SamFirm and the program will download the odin file and decrypt it to allow for extraction.

For instance, I downloaded SM-G950U/TMK Firmware, which is the USA variant, but, in theory, lacks the TMB system bloatware.

But to get an update to my attempt to Odin De-bloat my S8, I have a suspicion that USERDATA no longer lives within AP, instead it has its own Partition within the Full Odin Firmware, thus, meaning that simply flashing AP, BL, and CP from a Non-US Carrier firmware will NOT remove the carrier system bloatware. Until there is a Odin build released that allows for flashing the USERDATA.tar.md5, the TMB bloat remains after flashing the Generic Odin firmware. But you guys are more than willing to try a find a way to flash the firmware to change the CSC code from TMB to TMK, USC, or whomever does not load carrier bloat into their build.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] unitz0mbie:
So I can use Odin to apply any ota? I'm using an att variant with a cricket sim, and I can't get any updated and smart switch shows that I have latest version, but there are reports of att releasing an att for the device

Thanks

Thank you. I had the same issue and it was getting annoying. I had the home button turned off on always on display. I had to turn it back on then follow the tutorial and it worked. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] TomNJ3256:
I have had this update for about 10 days now and I seem to have issues I never had with this phone before. Nothing major, just annoying things like notifications for SMS not being 100% reliable, and if I use the keypad on a call it seems to add a number press when I put the phone to my ear and now for the first time, I am having trouble with my PC and my phone getting into file transfer mode. Has anyone else had anything strange happen since the update? Or am I just the lucky one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Deth527:
So far it's fixed all of my issues. With my auto brightness, Bluetooth, and my locking issues. Haven't had any of the ones you've listed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ramiss:
Late notification in Nougat can be due to the more aggressive Doze. Turn off Optimization for your sms app to solve it.

The update did solve the sensor stop working bug they introduced in the last few updates, but yeah there are quirks I don't like:

- The checkbox to enable/disable auto brightness is now buried another click deeper.

- Samsung Themes are now not fully compatible with this Samsung Nougat update. #genius

- Status bar font is too small and weirdly tall.

- In optimized mode the lock screen disappears after 3 seconds. It's useless and there isn't a setting to increase this.

- the notification slider theme is horrendously difficult to read. Font is too small, locked to black on white text. It needs to go back to how it was.

On the flip side, the App drawer now auto sorts alphabetically. Only took them this long to solve that!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ratman6161:
Interesting...but I'm not seeing most of that. What do you mean by "optimized mode" for the screen? In the display settings under "screen mode" I've got:

Adaptive display

AMOLED cinema

AMOLED photo

Basic

i'm set on Adaptive display. In the Screen Timeout section I've got it set to one minute. I put the phone down and timed it on my watch. the screen dimmed at 50 seconds and turned off at exactly 1 minute....so seems to be working unless I'm looking at something different than you?

Status bar font doesn't look too small to me but of course "too small" is subjective. Still, my old eyes are not as good as they used to be and I can read it fine without my glasses on. Tried swtiching screen resolutions back and forth between max an 1920x1080 and didn't notice a difference between them, just to see if it was a resolution issue.

Question I always as after a major OS update: Have you done a factory reset? I have not yet. I usually run it for a while as is and do a reset when I get some time. But in the past i've seen a reset cure any number of issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] pool_shark:
I've only noticed 2 things wrong.

No keyboard vibration feedback when on a call.

After google play services updated my gmail emails not coming automatically. Removing/adding my google account fixed that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ramiss:
Its not optimized mode for the screen. Its Power Optimized Mode (go to the settings battery menu). My comment was for the "lock screen" dissappearing after 3 seconds. This is the screen that pops up when you turn on power and BEFORE you unlock the phone. It shows summaries of notifications... for all of 3 useless seconds.

I have not reset the phone and refuse to unless something in the OS simply cannot be resolved. Just like I'm not going to reformat my Windows PC drive if a program has a bug. You should reset your system/dalvik cache. Although that should be done automatically during the update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ratman6161:
I too don't reformat my Windows PC to fix a bug. But I do do it after a major OS update such as Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 for example. No, you don't have to but...

I have changed my font to Samsung Sans and it changed in the messaging app with no issues. I'm using Samsung's default messaging app.

Honestly I'm having zero issues since the update. I did a factory reset following the update. I realize we shouldn't have to do this but I do it after every big update just to be sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gregcapps:
It really boggles my mind all the problems people are posting about. I have had ZERO issues and have not done a factory reset at all.

I couldn't get over how broken Nougat is on the Note 5 so I just went ahead and upgraded to the S8+... Absolutely 0 issues with Nougat on this device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MatroxD:
Same here! I'm pretty shocked.. Mine is smooth, and I have yet to reset either..

But then, there are a ton of units in circulation.. Especially after the 7 fallout..

Hmmnnn.. It'd be nice if they released the 8 early(that just popped into my brain)!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] rpoitras:
It's not just changing the font. I changed mine to Samsung Sans as well and it worked fine. My issue was in the Messages app, in Settings -> Font Size, if I tried to change the font size it wouldn't stick. The font was a tad small so I wanted to increase it one level. I realized last night that once you're in the Font Size menu the header is just plain white (at least on my phone) so it looks like there is no way to back out. I was using the back button which probably cancelled the edit. I tried again but clicking the blank header and now it's working. Am I the only one who sees the white only header? All other menus seem to have the header describing the screen with back (less than) symbol, e.g. "< MESSAGES SETTINGS" but it's missing on the Font size menu. :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ramiss:
Not sure if this is your issue, but many interface issues, including unreadable white headers, stem from the fact that Themes from prior Android versions (even Samsung Themes) are NOT fully compatible with Nougat. If you attempt to re-apply your theme then you should get that warning. I had to apply a brand new theme to solve my header issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] rpoitras:
Yep, that was it. I now see Cancel and Done in the header. Thanks!:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rolfsted:
Gmail broken.....google play broken, phone broken......too bad
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] skunkle88:
I just discovered you can change font size within the actual message. Use the 2 finger pinch to zoom in and out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rolfsted:
Just got an update to the Nougat update....so we'll see.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
Wouldn't take that if I was you because I guarantee you it's a way to prevent the CFautoroot from working on your phone if you want root..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rolfsted:
Poop
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ramiss:

[LG Watch Sport] Iceman248:
Yea, that'd be so awesome.
[LG Watch Sport] krabman:
It's surprising as I said, more so now that I've had some time with the watch because it's actually pretty good. I get all day battery life, the watch does a decent job of keeping track of my gym time, I find the assistant useful since I mostly use it to set timers, alarms, various simple things play well on the watch that would have been an assistant search or activity on the phone. Lists, notes, recipes, all work well on the watch. An example would be grocery lists, it's nice to walk through the store while simply glancing at the watch instead of pulling the phone.

All similar to what I did with my previous smartwatches but it all works better here due to the combination of (more fluid) hardware pushing the GUI, AW 2.0, along with the rotating crown to quickly scroll. It's not a huge difference but for me it's pushed smartwatch use into a place where I put my watch on in the morning because I want to, not because I tell myself to use it. My day now includes getting schit done with it, before it really didn't.

Anyhow I hope you gents can pick one up soon. It's so dead here I've stopped checking to see if there was anything interesting to learn.
