[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] The Phone Company:
Excuse my ignorance, what is BTU? I am with O2, what benefit do we get from flashing BTU, no bloat apps?

Also I haven't yet accepted any updates, if we do, and realize for example we want to Re-map the Bixby button can we backtrack with this Firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] TheLoverMan:
So doing this did not trip Knox ?

Hey [MENTION=1755691]nintendolinky[/MENTION] :)

I'm sorry if I've spammed you! i sent a message to you via PM but it isn't showing in my sent messages so no idea if it sent or not.

First off...you seem to live where I work (West Yorkshire) small world eh! Ha.

Anyway, contacting you to see if you can tell me the exact steps you followed to flash the BTU unbranded FW on your Vodafone S8+ as I have the exact same phone and want to do the same thing.

I've obtained the FW from here:

https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955F/BTU/download/G955FXXU1AQDG/130954/

And the Odin software from there too (3.12.7) are these the files you used to get to the XEU FW you currently have (according to a post I saw of yours on here)?

Also did you follow the steps from sammobile (link above) to update the FW including not setting a secure pin before flashing?

Final question, do you also get OTA updates?

Cheers! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] sheppy1:
Sorted mine now! I have a Vodafone UK SIM locked device which had the VOD CSC. I flashed the BTU G955F (S8+ April FW) from Sammobile and setup the secure PIN and flashed the CSC_OXM file and NOT the Home_CSC file along with all the other apps via the latest Odin version.

Upon completion of the flash I was presented with a bizarre german message which seemed to be referring to the UK SIM I had in the phone. I simply hit a button which looked like it had "restart" in the name and then the phone rebooted, wiped itself and then booted into a UK ROM.

Instantly i was presented with the latest July ROM update which wasn't available within the stock Vodafone ROM (hence me wanting to debrand and flash a BTU ROM) and my CSC shows as XEU.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jamespbk:
Hi guys,

Will installing this firmware remove the annoying 'Sim1/Sim2' icons that occur on the DUOS (SM-G950FD) model?

I always need to use the micro-SD slot so will never use a 2nd sim, making the icons very annoying.

Thanks

Sorry to bump a thread do you have this somewhere I can download?

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Adiwilko76:
Not unless your phone is unlocked

You can flash XEU firmware through odin but your device must be carrier unlocked because if its locked to EE carrier or Vodafone or another carrier then flashing XEU or BTU unlocked firmware will brick your device guarenteed. You need to try a different sim card to the one your device currently uses and if it accepts it your device isn't carrier locked but if it asks for an unlock code its carrier locked. You can get devices unlocked for £10-£20 and once carrier unlocked you may flash XEU Great Britain/Ireland firmware or probably better Samsungs own CSC code BTU Great Britain. Sorry for the long winded reply but want to make sure you follow the correct procedure. Here's the link for the latest BTU Unlocked firmware for SM-G955F

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coremania:
If you root with magisk there's an tethering enabler module, I'm not sure if it's made for your issue, but u can try. Otherwise

as I told you dark rom runs fantastic. I'm running dark with ElementalX kernel a bit underclocked and DNA infected theme, rooted with magisk. Gives me a great performance/battery experience with my 6p. Everything works absolutely great. Give it a try, if everything else fails.

Hi:

Got a Coolpad 5560S that, simply, refuses to be recognized by Windows. Have been online searching for/trying 'fixes" that don't remedy the problem. Is this something within the phone or a Win7 problem? [Coolpad 5560S--Kk 4.2.2]. Have tried cache reset and factory reset. I rooted the phone and wonder if doing so could the problem? Am at wits end here! Is anyone able to help?

[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dishe:
I just picked up a refurbished Moto E2 (Surnia) for ATT/Cricket, and I rather like it aside from the limited internal storage. Would love to flash a ROM that allows adoptable storage via SD card, but read some things about Nougat roms having issues with bluetooth and other little nagging bugs on some ported devices. Would love to stick with Marshmallow or anything stable enough for a trouble-free experience. I'm not necessarily looking for latest-and-greatest, if this phone shipped with Marshmallow, that'd be good enough for me honestly. Just need to move past Android 5.1 here.

Should I try to dig up an antiquated CM13 rom image? Seems like official links have been pulled in honor of lineage OS. Is LineageOS stable enough? Should I try that first?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MercilessSinner:
Basically you have an AT&T device, which is unauthorized for bootloader unlocking, therefore flashing any custom ROMs is impossible. You're pretty much stuck with stock 5.1 firmware.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dishe:
Oh well that just stinks. I already had a VZ Moto E2 that I've been using in GSM thanks to the tweaks for that, but was annoyed that I'm stuck on 5.1. Had an opportunity to grab the xt1527 for 99cents refurbished at Cricket, and figured I could replace it with this one and flash Marshmallow.

Fantastic. Now I have two Moto E2's with locked bootloaders. :P
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dishe:
Wasn't there an official 6.0 ROM that Moto released in markets other than US? Would I be able to flash that on my Xt1527 with a locked bootloader since it is an offically signed ROM, or will it reject?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MercilessSinner:
Short answer, I presume it's not possible to flash the firmware released for a different phone variant, the phone's CID must correspond with its designated firmware.

I'm not 100% sure though, never had a phone with a carrier locked bootloader.

my tablet is stuck in the download screen of the note 10.1 TWRP recovery rom and its been like that for over 15 minutes.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You aren't making sense.

Samsung devices have download mode and recovery mode.

Which one are you in? You can't be in both, it's one or the other.

What were you attempting to do when this happened?

[General Questions and Answers] xf0:
I meant the download screen isnt making progress even though I plugged it into a computer and downloading it.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Are you in download mode and are you connecting to Odin on PC? If so, what are you trying to flash?

[General Questions and Answers] xf0:
TWRP recovery ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Ok, it's obvious that you don't know what you are talking about or anything about what you are trying to do.

You aren't answering my questions with the right information. I'll try this one more time and if you can't answer my question sensibly then I guess I'm done trying to help you.

TWRP is not a ROM, it is a tool that can be used to flash ROMs on your device, it is not a ROM itself, it is a custom recovery.

I'll ask again.

Are you in download mode (volume down+home+power) when connected to PC? Are you trying to flash TWRP on your device via Odin?

Or are you in TWRP recovery(volume up+home+power) when you are connected to PC? What do mean it won't download? Are you trying to flash a ROM? TWRP doesn't "download" anything. TWRP is for creating backups, flashing custom ROM zips ad other custom .zip files, or connecting to adb, TWRP has other features but these are the main features used by android enthusiasts.

[General Questions and Answers] xf0:
I meant when I go to download mode and open ODIN on PC it takes a long time to download then fails. I am gonna try to flash again but pay attention to log.

Also TWRP download screen was a typing mistake .

Are you sure that the TWRP you are flashing is for your model number?

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] bigben14:
hi,

i just installed the last beta version of OOS (beta 14) and my phone was previously rooted.

when i instaled the update, i reflashed super SU and when the phone booted up i had TWRP and SuperSU flashed but all my apps said the phone wasn't rooted (superSU showed me the message about SU binary not being installed or whatever).

i then uninstalled SuperSU and rechecked and all my apps said my phone was rooted. what did i do wrong? i am thinking that this is a temporary root without SuperSU so i would love it if someone had a solution and coul help me
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ar.sam175:
Try to flash the superSU.zip once again without clearing cache .....it would work

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] federico50:
Hey guys!

So here is the thing. Today I woke up with the official nougat update (yohoo! right?) but after I updated and the phone restarted and turned on, it starts rebooting. Time after time. I tried wipe partition, wipe factory reset, I tried safe mode, nothing worked. I pick one zip file who said to be a "rom" but it was fake, now i have no OS in my phone. Just the TWRP recovery.

OK, so I downloaded the good file from sammobile about the marshmallow rom, but when I try to install it with Odin, it says "sw rev check fail device 4 binary 3". (I suppose it´s because im trying to downgrade).

Anyway, what should I do?? Greatly appreciated for any help :) right now the only thing I can do with my phone is play with the recovery and put it on Download mode.

Thanks again!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
Don't use SAMMOBILE, get the file from here: https://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s6/general/guide-links-files-update-root-restore-t3366862

Check the MD5 to make sure that you got a good download, then try using Odin again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] federico50:
Thanks a lot Koop! In my current situation, should I download QB1 TAR File or -QA2 TAR File?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
Try the latest which is QB1, but no guarantee that it will work for you. Downgrading is always tricky.

If it doesn't, don't panic. In the worst case, the Nougat TAR file will be available in a week or two at most. I'll upload it once it comes out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] federico50:
Thanks I´ll download and try now, then I will tell you what happened in an hour or two (my internet is slow lol) thanks as always!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] federico50:
It worked man!! Thank you very much!!

I do have another problem, that is I don´t have the Hotspot or the activate or desactive button for mobile data. And I have a constant message on the notification panel "Checking device status".

Any news about these?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
Make a backup first, if you have TWRP. (See my thread.)

Try this: https://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s6/development/zip-reenable-hotspot-t3first4

Try going to Settings, System Updates, Update PRL and Profile.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] federico50:
Which one should I download? for ROM with init.d Support or without init.d Support? (sorry if this is a silly question)

No luck with updating PRL and Profile, it says that it can´t update because "no connection" with both but internet is clearly working and the nougat update its downloading again.. Weird.

By the way the Nougat download finished and I tried to install it but no luck. The phone still restarting so im going back to your rom!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
It is not a ROM in the usually accepted sense, it is the stock image file. If you follow the thread and Root your phone and install TWRP, you won't get the Nougat OTA again. The downside is that if you later decide that you want Nougat, you'll have to manually flash it, but that sounds like a better solution for you anyway.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] federico50:
Sorry I think you misunderstood me, i was asking which one of the two files in your thread I should download (sorry if this is stupid but i dont wanna mess it up more)

Sure that sounds like a better solution :)

The drag and drop step will add original META-INF folder into jar, nothing more. This is not a mandatory step. You can skip this anyway for system Apk/Jar. Because system Apk/Jar doesn't require signing.

[X2 General] mirfatif:
NOTE-1:

I'm not a developer or something even near to that. All information provided here is copied from different internet sources like this & this & this and many others.

It's according to best of my knowledge and I'll not be responsible for any harm to you or your device. It works perfectly for me. You may try it on your own risk.

Save / backup your data before continuing. Whole device will be wiped.

NOTE-2:

If you have a custom recovery, install Stock ROM (v2.1.0.13 or v2.1.0.12) instead.

If you don't have a custom recovery, you may get one here or here.

If your device is bricked and can't boot into recovery or bootloader mode (read here what it is), proceed.

NOTE-3:

Given firmware link is v2.1.0.13 for device 059V782. There are some variants of Nokia X2DS (other product codes) which were officially updated from 2.1.0.11 to 2.1.0.12, so they dont support version 2.1.0.13.

Make sure your device supports 2.1.0.13 by googling your product code (written on back of device, see by removing back cover) or you may get in trouble. In case if you need 2.1.0.12, download it from some other link and follow the instructions given here.

NOTE-4:

Hard-bricked devices (with no buttons working, no Download Mode) may also be recovered by this method but with a slightly different procedure.

QFIL can also be used instead of NCS, but NCS feels a kinda little bit official way ;)

REQUIREMENTS:

A PC with Windows and uninterrupted power supply. (I used Dell Inspiron 15R with Windows 8.1 and 10).

A USB data cable.

Fully charged phone, soft-bricked at maximum i.e. no recovery, no boot accessible ;)

STEPS:

Download and Install NCS to your PC.

Copy

UserGroupsConfiguration.cfg

to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Product Support Tool For Store 5".

Download Firmware and extract to "C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Packages\Products\RM-1013".

Launch NCS > Product Support Tool for Store 5.

At Sign-In screen, click Work Offline.

Disable Automatic Product Selection.

Go to File > Open Product and select RM-1013.

Click Programming > Recovery. Downloaded Firmware must be listed there.

Click Start and follow instructions. DO NOT INTERRUPT FLASHING PROCESS OR IT MAY HARD BRICK YOUR PHONE LEAVING IT USELESS.

Wait a few minutes and done. You have a newly purchased phone in your hands if all goes well.
