[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BiduBR:
Hi Dears,

I have extracted the partitions from an LG K10 using the method posted here.

Now I got all mmcblk0 partition in bin files format but I can manage how to mount this files or extract the data.

I tried from windows and from linux but no luck.

If I inspect the bin file in linux with an Hex editor I see a lot of data inside but inspecting the same file in windows only 0´s show.

Can someone help me in this ?

Tks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sflagg73:
I was thinking of keeping my Note 5 and sending back my S8+. I'm not overly impressed so I will wait for the Note 8. For someone who does light browsing, email but plays games like Game of War that works this device to death to run. What would you recommend for root process and ROMs to install to accommodate my typical usage? I have heard over clocking helps game play, is there a version that has a button to do this or is it a headache? I haven't rooted anything since Note 3 so it's been a while but I can follow directions with the best of them. Thank you in advance for any help.

What is the problem you have?

I just go to official Magisk topic and download Latest Magisk (version 12.0), flash it through TWRP (i'm using 3.1.0-0) and when the phone is on go too Magisk Manager at Play Store and install it.

After going through that, it just works... :silly:

I have read recently that CTC verification now fails due to unlocked bootloader, as well as it's other detections like root.

I read on the Netflix/root thread on XDA (sorry don't have link. It was on main page this past weekend) where several people mentioned that.

I'm trying to find out if relocking bootloader , can I keep twrp and root (magiask) ?

I tried magisk and supersu+suhide.

You can flash the newest Resurrection Remix.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] IAmLasher:
I was recently gifted an S7 Edge that won't seem to connect properly to my PC. It had Marshmellow when I got it, and after some tinkering, attempts, to root, and some bootlooping, I ended up flashing Nougat (g935vvru4bqa2 from Sammobile). My PC can't seem to read files from it (before AND after tinkering). Samsung switch asks me to put it in MTP mode even when it already is, and on the rare occasions I've gotten the memory to show in windows explorer, all the files have no name and I get an error message when I try to open them. I've tried reinstalling android drivers several times to no avail. This is concerning for a few reasons but primarily because I have no way of backing up my phone currently. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: Interesting development. I hadn't tried the phone with another computer for some reason. It is working fine on my laptop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jolly_roger_hook:

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] x10Mark:
Was waiting for the pre order item and here it is; MDR-100ABN

It was already a fair price for what you get without the headset, but now I'm sold and pre ordered mine. Often the xperia's get an expensive pre order item but when the promotion is over they barely drop in price at all, so either pre order or wait up to 6 months before you are in the sweetspot again price wise.

What do you think of this promotion?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] martin042068:
Pre order with Headset MDR-100ABN

Sounds like even a better deal. What company did you preorder with or did you go through Sony directly?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] x10Mark:
I went for the best service webshop in my country, because pre order prices are all the same while usually you pay a premium for their service so not a hard choice.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] shineyads:
I have reached out to Unlocked-Mobiles to see if they are doing this promotion, will let you know when I receive a reply. I think Clove will be doing it from reading between the lines on another query they answered for me.

1&1 in Germany (and another company, think it was called OS?) have opened up preorders and say that all orders up to 31st May will get the headphones for free. They are giving a phone delivery date of June.

Sony UK preorders have opened and they are throwing in the MDR-NC750 earphones as a promotional item.

Bit gutted by this, as the Bluetooth headset the Germans are getting are worth over 3 times as much - if you're going to over a promotion to various countries then you should really make it the same product, or you're just going to invite complaints!
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] x10Mark:
Damn, feelsbadman.

I'm ordering mine in two days, when the pricecut kicks in for a certain carrier and I'll be able to get 10gigs/month for two years long for a total of 100 euro's, including the mdr-100abn with my phone.

I never thought I'd ever buy a subscription, but it's simply cheaper when I do the math...

749 xzp & 8 euro a month for 500mb pre-paid.

Or

409 xzs & 17 euro a month 10gb subscription. (2year)

Wonder where to spend all those gigabytes on, I could get half of them full maybe but all 10? :eek:

But who knows what the future brings.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] kamalaggi:
Does anyone know if Sony Germany ships to the UK.

Im thinking of pre-ordering from Germany just to get the headphones.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] figo_rulz11:
Also would they honour the warranty in the UK? Plus you'd get a two pin charger not UK plug
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] kamalaggi:
The plug is not important as I already have one for my Z5 Premium.

Sony do a EU warranty so they should honour warranty in UK.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] shineyads:
According to the terms and conditions the headphones are only for the residents of Germany, so even if you do get the phone shipped over, you won't be able to claim for the headphones (you have to send your receipt and claim separately, they won't come at the same time as the phone).
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] figo_rulz11:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] XxCyberHackerxX:
I was wondering if any firmware is available to I can get rid of the retail mode. I'm sorry if I posted in the wrong fourm. I'm aware that the phone doesn't have cellular capabilities I want to use it as a wifi only device
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] henrybravo:
"Received a demo S8" oh really? Maybe ask the store from where it was stolen from, they probably know the process to take it out of retail mode. If you bought it legitimately then it's the sellers responsibilty to provide a working phone. Is the wifi-only mode because the IMEI is blacklisted? I guess you don't live up to your username. Just kidding.

I googled it, there are pages and videos that tell you how to remove retail mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] djxn40:
Go into development settings and turn off demo mode.. it's that easy ...

Settings...

About phone...

Tap build number until it says unlocked...

Then back out to setting

Then development settings

Then go down and turn demo off
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] henrybravo:
I think he's talking about retail mode which is a totally separate thing. There's a Samsung Retail app and a code you have to enter.

Hello there

I also have a GS8 + demo unit and would like to know how can you remove or flash a new firmware ??

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Mysticales:
Wow.... Its amazing all these Demo phones getting stolen and sold already.

I am not blaming anyone who buys them on Ebay... but realize this. Once the stores send it in, the new blacklisting methods on carriers share among the carriers. Once its listed. Account gets flagged saying you have an unauthorized device. After that, they suspend the account till you put a clean IMEI.

I know AT&T and its network sister partner services do this for sure.

I would say those who buy this from ebay as a Demo device, or from Craigslist. Ask them for the Invoice receipt or proof of purchase. (Claim in case of warrenty issues) if they stutter or make up an excuse. Realize its a stolen store phone which will get tracked. They may not go after the small 100$ or entry level phones but the high end galaxies and iphones... they sure will.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] XxCyberHackerxX:
That's very true. I go mine from eBay and will ask for the original invoice. If Samsung ever came asking for the phone I would give it to them :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Skander1998:
*facepalm*.

These are demo units, they are built with no IMEI or any of the cell antennas.

These are bought to use as WiFi only devices usually.

They are not blacklisted stolen units, those are completely different (and do exist a lot on eBay).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Mysticales:
o.0 Where do you work at? Cause the "Demo" phones "I" get are fully functional from samsung. Then I install the retail demo software on it, which has the password. It syncs up with the demo software for that phone and off it goes. I can disable functions, protect it from hard resets and even open it all back up again.

Yes, they quite so have an IMEI.

However in fairness. If you have a wifi only S8 "demo" unit. Please share the screenshot of it showing no imei in the about phone info area.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Skander1998:
All demo units in Qatar and MENA region are like that (in Samsung shops), I'll get you a screenshot when I go out sometime.

It will show IMEI 0000000000

Here is an example demo phone http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...198937?hash=item3d3ac81fd9:g:HyUAAOSw9OFZE-Kz

The back will have a NOT FOR SALE sticker without the usual IMEI printout even. Just a SRN

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Jimmmycrackcorn:
I've been having this problem the last few days. It started with Allo messages playing for two seconds then stopping. Now it's happening to YouTube videos I watch. So frustrating.

Found this thread over on Samsung community forums: https://us.community.samsung.com/t5...rd-id/GeneralDiscussion/thread-id/2913/page/1

Sounds like lots of people are taking their phones back for exchanges. Might be a bad soldering connection on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] joeyvanhummel:
Have you restarted your phone? Fixed the issue for me, so I think it's just a software-related bug. Plus, it only happens when I open games or other media when I have music playing (for example.)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Jimmmycrackcorn:
multiple times....and I did the USB audio routing option. still doesn't fix anything.

only thing that gets the speaker to work is pressing HARD on the back cover of the phone about two inches above the speaker....and if that's the only thing that makes it work, it's gotta be an internal wiring/soldering issue

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 AM ----------

next time it happens, try pushing on the back cover of your phone....about an inch or two above the speaker

see if it comes back on
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] joeyvanhummel:
Man, do you think it's both a software bug AND a hardware issue, both causing similar problems?

The S8 really is a great phone when it works, but it seems to have a lot of infancy problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] firedjj1:
Think I found the solution.

Okay. First of all, thank you everyone for reply to this thread. I think I found the solution to the audio cut off problem. Every time when the audio goes off I just gave the phone a few Taps against my palm. So far, this method worked out pretty well for me.

The method I used was to held the phone by the top ear piece area and aimed the speaker area and just slapped it against my palm for a few times.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Jimmmycrackcorn:
what a horrific "solution"

I have done similar.....press my finger hard against the rear panel...right above the speaker grille on the bottom of the phone.

so clearly, it's a hardware issue with wiring/soldering in the internals.

Here is a thread on the official Samsung foruns with LOTS of people complaining about the same: https://us.community.samsung.com/t5...rd-id/GeneralDiscussion/thread-id/2913/page/1

I tweeted that thread to Samsung and Samsung USA....no answer from either
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Jimmmycrackcorn:
I'm slightly shocked more people aren't complaining about this problem
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Skander1998:
Because your phones are defective and defective phones (out of the total number sold) represents a tiny percentage.

Just get a replacement.

Some of the comments on Samsung forums make it look like a software issue. If you restart your phone and it works again it is a software issue and the "tapping" thing is just a placebo.

If it was hardware (bad connection), rebooting would do nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] kick069:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] DJs123:
guys sorry to inform that it is most probably a hardware issue since only few customers including me are facing this. If it was a software issue then more customers will come up with similar complaints. Bad luck we may all got the same batch of faulty phones.

The reason why i am saying is that i started the device in safe mode and the issue is still there. By tapping right above the speaker clears the issue and same vice versa while playing if tap above the speaker the sound again cuts off meaning to say IT'S AN HARDWARE RELATED THING

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] stilldoogle:

It only happens to me from the phones speaker. Bluetooth and aux output are perfectly fine
