[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayyfries:
Originally, my galaxy S6 began to stop fast charging, and began charging extremely slowly. I bought a wireless charger, and it seemed to work fine. However I logged in to my Snapchat account on a different phone while I was trying to find a charger for the Galaxy. Since my phone is rooted, I was locked out of re-signing into my account on snapchat on the Galaxy S6. So to get into Snapchat I thought I could unroot it by using the Super SU app, but now my phone is stuck in a boot loop. I'm trying to reflash original firmware in ODIN but every time I plug my phone in I get "USB device not recognized" and nothing shows up in ODIN. I just took it to a repair shop and they replaced the charging port for me, and I still get this error. Is this a software thing or did the shop screw me over and my port is still broken (I looked at the port inside and it looks brand new. Maybe they messed up the installation?) I don' think it's FRP Lock, since in ODIN mode it says "FRP LOCK: OFF"

In ODIN Mode i'm given this:

ODIM MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SM-G920T

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

FRP LOCK: OFF

Secure Download: Enabled

KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x030c)

RP SWREV: B:4 K:3 S:3

And Volume Up + Home + Power gives me:

KERNEL REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:3 BINARY:2
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S10e:
Is it charging when connected to a wall plug?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayyfries:
Yes, but still very slowly.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S10e:
If I were you I'd give it to another good technician and tell them everything from start to bottom and let them handle it.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayyfries:
Yeah, just did that. Hopefully he just reassembled it incorrectly the first time.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brenner650:
Correct me if I am wrong, but you are trying to flash a version of kernel that is older than the one currently on the phone, and I have never heard of a successfull downgrade.

Why dont you try emergency initialization through Smart Switch, with sn of the phone, it will flash latest official fw version for that phone.

Afterwards you can root it again, because it will prolly be stuck on logo with official fw.

In case u need help with Smart Switch, i made instructions, so you can check threads created by me in my profile.

When you finally manage to have an operating sw on the phone, you can access USB settings by dialing *#0808#, try changing settings there, but remember original one in case its needed.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayyfries:
I just got my phone back from the repair shop today. Even after replacing the charging port twice, It still is not recognized by the PC. Even when using your method of emergency initialization through smart switch, when I come the part where I have to put my phone into download mode and connect it to the PC It is still not recognized.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fOmey:
Restore your phone to factory settings using Samsung smartswitch.. download link is located in the sidebar on the right, download the windows version and follow the prompts.

This should revert your entire phone to the stock experience across the board, rom, kernel, bootloader, modem the whole package.. if it's a software issue causing your problem this will fix it.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BaTarrY:
Unless it's a real hard brick , but I hope not.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fOmey:
The beauty of android is its extremely difficult for the end user to "brick" their device.. 9/10 it's as simple as flashing stock firmware to resolve any "bricks".

The problem his having is most likely related to his boot.img, supersu asks if you want to "restore a backup".. I'm guessing he said yes, now his stuck in a boot loop.. it's actually a very common problem. I believe I have been in this situation once before.. To be honest I reject any option's to restore any backups that supersu prompt me to from that moment on, never had any issues since.

This issue can easily be solved by restoring a TWRP backup (kernel specifically) or even flashing a new compatible kernel entirely.. however I highly doubt he has any backups otherwise I'm sure he would of tried this already.

However if he does have a kernel zip currently on his device I highly recommend flashing it before restoring using a stock firmware. Otherwise booting into recovery mode is always a option, throw a kernel zip on the SDCARD, flash that and it should resolve this problem. ODIN is another option.. by doing this they may be able to save user data as a factory restore will result in all data being wiped in the process... however this particular user doesnt seem very experienced otherwise I'm sure he would of tried the following already so flashing stock firmware I think is the best option, fool/full proof method. :p

When i choose a picture as a wallpaper, it onli appears in the middle of the screen. It doesnt appear on the top bar (the start menu area) or the bottom bar (near softkeys).

what i wanna do is make the picture fit the entire screen, or at least make the bars opaque-ish so i can see the picture. I think the pictures will look much much better that way. Is there any way to do this?
[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
try editing the picture with paint (or similar) to size 240x320.

if that doesn't help, i've no idea what else to do.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exoitus21:
Hey Guys,

I've come across my limit of knowledge during the past days.

I purchased this new phone, "Samsung Galaxy S 7".

When I look up the "About phone" option in "Settings", it says, that it's a SM-G930F with android verison 6.0.1.

I couldnt find ANYTHING according to my Build number, which says: MMB29M.G930FXXU1BPIA or that my Smart Switch says, that the software version would be PIA(VZW).

But when I go into Download/Odin-Mode there are the following text lines:

ODIN MODE (HIGH-SPEED)

PRODUCT NAME: SM-G930V

CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL

SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL

FAP LOCK: OFF

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

RP SWREV: B4(2,1,1,1,1) K1 S3

SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE

So, both informations are dividing from each other, because the first says it's a SM-G930F and the second says it's a SM-G930V, except that both have in common, that they say system status is official.

But, my problem is, as you can see, it's still marshmallow that is installed on my Galaxy S 7 and in my settings there is absolutely no possibility to update my phone to nougat.

I've tried several things via Odin like installing: Stock firmware for ADB, Nougat firmware for ADB, Stock firmware for VZW, Nougat firmware for VZW

But just nothing worked out.

Most common issues I had with Odin were: "sboot.bin FAIL!, recovery.img FAIL!, Complete(Write) operation failed.", depending on what kind of files I tried to apply, like pit file, AP-File, Home_CSC-File, etc...

Even if i tried to solve it with the most common troubleshoting methods i could find on google, there would be another issue, like a never ending story.

I also tried applying a firmware with recovery mode but there it says: E: "footer is wrong” ,followed by “E: signature verification failed", even if my SD-Card has never been encrypted.

I dont have any idea what to do anymore,

so i would extremely appreciate some help of a pro, who can tell me, what to do exactly.

Thank you!

*EDIT*

I managed to unroot the phone with the verzon nougat firmware but now it won't let me use the phone with a diferent SIM-card than a Verizon's and I'm going to return the phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b0rgsen:
Hi,

I'm facing the exact same problem.

Which Verizon firmware did you use to unroot your phone?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b0rgsen:
I managed to flash the latest Verizon ROM (SM-G930V_1_20170330100826_87cd9631jd_fac). Now it is obviously branded and I always get a message (after reboot/after ending airplane mode, so everytime the phone connects to a cellular network) that I'm using a non-verizon sim card. Nevertheless, after manually adding the APN, everything works fine, no SIM lock.

Edit: it works even better with this stock ROM w/o branding: updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=EF06A1ED34EB11E7963AFA163EE8F90B
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidarif:
Same Problem

Its showing 930f in my phone information

but when i go into download mode it shows 930v

cant update my phone it's still stuck in ****ty marshmallow

i would highly appreciate any sort of help.. TIA
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistavampire:
yes I get that error too, and I added the APN. it started to work but sooner or later the network drops.

---------- Post added at 09:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

you have the exact same issue as me. I suggest you review this thread, it would be helpful.

In summation, you have a converted phone. you can flash Verizon's rom if you want nougat. But that didn't help with my network issues.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OSMANATE:
Same problem

is this phone is not official what's the matter please explain
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jetbintahn:
I'm also having the OP's exact same problem? I thought the phone I had just bought off gumtree was fake. I'm in Australia and noted that the model one the sticker on the back on my device is SM-G930F, the "about" page lists it as SM-G930F running 6.0.1, odin lists the as model SM-G930V, smart switch as PIA(VZW), CPU-Z as having it having a Snapdragon processor and finally the paper instruction manual is for a SM-9300 (China) - WTH!?

I cant seem to figure out which device it was or is ha! I believe it may be a chinese device that has been flashed to american standard. Is the the core point here, are these perhaps all flashed/refurbed chinese models?

Long story short, i'm not having any problems but i want a newer OS like oreo or nougat - if I flash to say SM-G930U standard with XAA (generic, samsung branding), will i begin having network issues in Australia?

Hi

I will show how to disable FRP Lock on any Samsung device for Root/No-Root user

For No-Root user:

Go to Settings/About phone&Tablet/Build number

Tap on 5 times or 10 times

Then,return on home Settings

Go to Developper options

Enable OEM unlocking

If it don't work you will try on root

For root, download root file for your device and flash it with Odin

For Root user :

Download "DisableService" on Google Play Store

Then, allow root access and go to the section "System"

Scroll down and tap on Google Play Service

Then scroll down again and when you see "FrpService" click and wait

Enjoy

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halfsweetginger:
hello,

I have a samsung galaxy tab a.

this is a nice device but only has 8 gb of internal memory. it runs android 5.1

I'm trying to switch the internal and external sd memory. (to get more internal memory)

first of all the device needed to be rooted. I have done this, without any problem..

then I started searching how to switch the memory. I have tried different apps for this but they where not working.

after this I tried to swap the memory manually. I read somewhere this can be done in the vold.fstab file.

I didn't found this file.

after reading more about the topic I found out that the mounting for android 5.1 is done in the boot.img file.

I looked for how to unpack this file, and I'm doing this now with cygwin and android kitchen 0.224

I can unpack the boot.img but have a few questions.

1) the mounting should be done in fstab.<devicename>...... the device name is Galaxy Tab A (2016) but I can not find fstab.galaxy Tab A (2016), but fstab.goldfish and fstab.sc8830 is it possible the mounting is done in one of thes files ? (they are found in the root of the boot.img

2) what should I change in these files?

3) afther I have changed the mounting, how can I with android kitchen repack the boot.img

thank for any help ;)

best regards,

Bart

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disneytoy:
Hello!

Sprint Note 5 stock original 5.1.1. I need to put custom recovery and root. I know how to do that. I have been away from the scene for a while. Not since CM.

Should I update the OS OTA then root and ROM? Or can I just go from my current 5.1.1?

I need a stable ROM that has wifi tether, and no bloatware.

Can anyone suggest a ROM and a Kernel to Odin for my root?

I have been reading and watching a lot of YouTube but all the rom choice's have my head spinning.

Thanks!!

I think he means TOMTOM has a maximum of 10 Satellites... and if you do, I'm not sure why... I presume it's because it seems a bit silly to be connected to more than 10, as this would do nothing but consume power.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
Heyy all.. it's been awhile since I've been here and I've asked for help a few times and it seems like everytime there's something new to do in the whole updating process..

So I've read https://xdaforums.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-stock-7-1-2-root-safetynet-ok-t3617347 and it looks great.. The thing that's got me confused now is the chainfire bootsigner?

Is it possible to be on the latest version of Android with all the security updates n everything and still have a unlocked bootloader / root etc.. or am I still sticking with the old April 5th security patch? just making sure I get everything right so I don't brick myself etc..

:D looking forward to the great help I always get.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
also how does the chainfire bootsigner thing work? kinda confused with it as well..
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jhs39:
My understanding is that you don't need to be on the April security patch--just the April bootloader. You can flash May without boot looping as long as you use the April bootloader. You are right that the changing flashing instructions are confusing.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
What about June?? 7.1.2 (NHG47N, Jun 2017, Verizon) or should I just stick with 7.1.2 (NHG47L, May 2017, Verizon)

and how do I find the April bootloader?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bennyboy2120:
You can find the boot loader on Google's website for the pixels factory image, the way the bootsigner works is anything past April you have to flash a bootsigner zip. Will attach a link later in an edit after you install TWRP.

If you downgraded from N you have to have the boot loader on both partitions as O ****s with it.

If you are on the Verizon variant and your boot loader is locked I'd probably suggest O beta. The Beta might be able to find a hole early. No Promise's. I will link up the post in a reply when I get home

EDIT

https://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/signing-boot-images-android-verified-t3600606/page16

1. download this boot signer

2. When you boot temp TWRP, flash the TWRP zip and flash the boot signer

3. Profit.

If anyone came from the android O beta please clarify to me so I can help

I agree people are jerks on the forum. I'll be happy to help when I can.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jhs39:
I'm confused about that as well. I've read that it doesn't need to be flashed anymore and also that it needs to be flashed everytime you flash anything that changes your boot image. Hopefully one of the successful Pixel XL flashers will give you a definite answer on this. The Pixel XL XDA community seems a lot less helpful than other phone communities I have encountered. People are more likely to tell you you're an idiot for not doing your own research than actually answer your question.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
No I have a unlocked bootloader.. only thing I'm worried about is it becoming locked again.. if that's possible at all? I remember reading/seeing it somewhere that it is possible for the bootloader to relock itself so I just wanna make sure that doesnt happen cause well.. RIP if so lol.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bennyboy2120:
Shouldn't. Look at my edit I have shorthand instructions there now :)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
Starting with May you have to install the boot signer any time you touch boot. You do it as the last step. So a kernel or root requires you to do it.

Its no big deal, just an extra zip to install while you are in TWRP. So yea, stay up to date on the security patches. Besides the security issues, some VZ phones have gone into loops silently re downloading the ota... burning a months data over night.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
soo all im doing is flashing the bootsigner? I don't have to run any commands or anything like I saw in Chainfires thread? cause that's what confuses me is when I have to start doing stuff in adb n such lol
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bennyboy2120:
The command to first boot twrp

Fastboot boot (twrp.img)

Is the only one needed when installing twrp

After that it's flashing

1.the twrp zip

2. The bootsigner.

Also side note Everytime you flash a room twrp goes away to be sure too install the TWRP zip after the ROM install
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
so I can go right to the 7.1.2 (NHG47N, Jun 2017, Verizon) image and just do what bennyboy2120 said above and it'll work or is that for the april update still?

just confirming before I start the process.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bennyboy2120:
This process is for people after April update
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
so i'll download the latest stock rom which would be 7.1.2 (NHG47N, Jun 2017, Verizon) and then just follow everything in https://xdaforums.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-stock-7-1-2-root-safetynet-ok-t3617347 and should be good?

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] noidea24:
This means you still have to stock recovery on your device. To advance past this screen, while you see "no command" press and hold power and quickly tap volume up. This will allow you to enter the rest of the stock recovery.

Besides that, it sounds like you had a bad flash. try getting into fastboot and starting over.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
nvm think I got it?? :D

edit.. yep im stuck.. I can get it to where I can apply update via adb or sd card or wipe system cache n stuff but that's it... dunno what to do from here,.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
It gives me the option to apply update via adb or sd card and when i select adb it says use adb sideload filename
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] noidea24:
i was just letting you know where you were and how the stock recovery worked. You need to get out of recovery completely and boot back into fastboot and reflash.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Dimmizer:
how do I get into fastboot?? I can't do anything keeps looping to No Command

nvm im retarded... a lil slow i'll admit lol im stupid for doing this stuff like im not really knowledgeable but I'm trying to learn so =/
