[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] dlads:
Glare - Nope nothing to do with the case, i've had a case on and off the phone since day one, iceview, tech 21 and dbrand skin, all the same problem, wiping it clean helps but it's still an issue, not sure on sappire, but i've read somewhere that it is prone to smudges more than glass.

When to buy - I understand what you mean about waiting for a period of time, but the last thing i need is to be month or so into a contract or the start of a new phone for me and then another is released, it'll just annoy me, you'll never catch the perfect moment to buy a phone as there is always something better about to be released, your only decision is if it'll still retain it's quality for the vast majority of time you'll have it for, kind of the sweet spot in a way, never an easy decision, sucks about US providers doing that, here in the UK i never pay for the phone, the one plus would be my first ever.

"but I won't stop you from believing what you will. :cyclops:"

??

I'm not alone in this, please hit google and find out for yourself, or actually compare this with a previous device, be honest with yourself and avoid being biased because you still own the HTC 10, i'm not mental :D I've had a lot of phones and I work with phones all the time, going back to the early 90's, the glass on the HTC 10 whatever it's made out of seems to be more prone to smears than other devices i've had, this is my belief yes but I am not alone in this, I've done some testing in this regard with an iPhone 6, S5 and my 10 and a HTC m9, got them all out and took a pic of a window with some light shining through like beaming, all took good pics but the HTC 10 certainly had some glare not apparent on the other devices, even after a swift cleaning the HTC showed some glare, this is the reality of the HTC 10 unfortunately i'm not sure why but it certainly exists in certain shots.

anyway, going a little off topic here.

I've decided to get the oneplus on launch day, so come the 27th i'll be buying the 128GB variant, not sure on a colour now, also EIS is enough for me, i've seen the pixels camera which is absolutely mind blowingly good (bought this phone for my daughter) and they only use EIS not OIS, so it isn't going to be an issue.

Good times :) just need to sell my HTC 10 now :( unless i have a birthday coming up in my family

thanks mate :) I didn't think i was making it up ;)

I shall. Unless I see an 11 I'm the flesh and fall in love or see don't horrible about the 1+ I don't like I'll be fine. But yea I'll let you guys know for sure..

I'll probably be happy and smiling, for me If I can run Zelda the Windwaker and half life 2, it has a beast of a camera, better battery and it's not a surf board sized phone then I'll be good :)

im just worried about the cam quality in htc 10 with lineage/aosp roms...and whether it supports manual controls (api2) in lineage or not.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] comstockload:
Very impressed with the OnePlus 5. If I was shopping for a new phone now it would be the 5. The unrootable U.S. version S8 and Samsung's ongoing commitment to shafting the developer community make it a no-go for me. The all glass U11 with its squeezable sides ..... uh...... not going there either. I'll keep my HTC 10 for one more year. It will likely be my last HTC phone. I'll be ready to buy a OnePlus 6 then. That's my $0.02 keep the change.

If I don't go for the 1+5 that's pretty much what I'll be doing.

Hello

Is there any program/driver that allows for WPA2-PSK TKIP security access using WM2003 1.72 ext 1.66.165 on XDAII? Current o/s only allows for WEP (or unsecured). Perhaps Funk Software odyssey if anyone knows...(do not want to upgrade ROM as everything's working nicely thanks anyway)

(Finally bought a SDIO wifi card and it works perfectly just need access to secured network too.)

Does anyone find a working method with this model ?

I have tried different ones but none is working, even downgraded the firmware to the oldest one I could find.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
Be aware that a certain method will not work with every model, even the same model it may work with certain builds only.

Samsung continues update security patches to fix loopholes that people are using to bypass FRP, so when posting a working method, please be specific: what model and build you did bypass successfully.

Since no one has the solution, I search and find this method.

The firmware must be downgraded to PH3. Current firmware is QA4. This is for US firmware; other regions with the same version might not work.

This method use Talk Back to open Chrome, then download Google Account Manager, Quick Shortcut Maker, then ES File Explorer.

You need Samsung and Google accounts to use this method . When TalkBack is ON, double tap to open, use two fingers to roll up and down.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
Can you tell me where to find that version? I'm assuming that I need to flash it with Odin. Is that right?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
https://samsung-firmware.org/downlo...0, Wi-Fi)/9z98/XAR/T280XXU0APH3/T280XAR0APH3/

This is the version works with TalkBack method. Make sure you are familiar with the touchscreen when Talkback in on, which requires double tap and two fingers to roll up and down. As usual, you always flash firmware with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
There's is a simpler way to bypass FRP on this device.

No need for a Samsung account or to downgrade account manager.

1. To activate accessibility mode just press HOME key 3 times.

2. Follow the tutorial until Chrome browser is opened and the Galaxy apps site is opened.

3. Type Browser in the search field and download Samsung Internet browser and install it.

4. Open the browser once installed and search for QuickShortcutMaker. Download it.

5. Tap the Bookmark icon top right in the browser, cancel the pop up then select HISTORY then DOWNLOAD HISTORY.

6. Install and run QuickShortcutMaker then follow the rest of the tutorial.

Seems like a very expensive solution for something you can do for zero money. You can buy an SM-T280 on eBay for less.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] xapobilo:
Chrome doesnt open anymore due to security reasons. is there any chance to bypass the FRP lock ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
Just downgrade to earlier firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] xapobilo:
Thanks for your quick reply which gives me the hope to fix the problem. With the informations i've found i am now a bit confused and not 100% sure if i am going the right way. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I assume i would need to download the T280XXU0APH3_T280XAR0APH3_HOME.tar.md5 with almost 2GB, then mount it to Odin AP slot, then run it and it is it?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
That's correct.

re help on sm-t280.

i guys how are you?

my sons messed around in their tab and my wife forgot wich mail she had created for the tab and now...zip...cant use tab for schooll.

can you guys help me...just flashed to old firm and sttill cant unlock.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
Press HOME button 3 times at the first page of setting to turn TALK BACK or Voice Assistant ON, then watch the video.

Draw the L to turn on global setting then follow steps to get the Chrome browser. You may to try the L many times.

You have to tell what you did, otherwise nobody has no idea how to help you. Many users did not follow steps properly, that's reason they failed.

This bypass FRP is a piece of cake if you do it properly.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] RenVilo:
I have the SM-T580 tablet and FRP is on. Downloaded android 6.1 (US) and manage to flash it but it did give me an notice about "PIT" but flashed 100% in odin. Tried to follow your video but as soon as I click on Chrome it says for security reasons I can't access it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
If you are able to downgrade to Android 6, then it's not impossible to unlock FRP.

Here is alternative way and faster:

-Download Quick Shortcut Maker 2.4 and Google Account Manager 6 , then save them in your SD card.

-Use Assist to open Google Search page, then type My File

- You should see your SD card, open the two needed apps and install them.

- The rest is the same as other method.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
I'm hoping this method is still viable, the downgrade method. I recently came into some samsung tablets that were crytpo erased but are still frp locked. Hoping to salvage them. I tried a method for auto enabling adb, involved downloading a firmware and then using this tool to remake the firmware which was supposed to 'auto enable adb' didn't work for me. I tried obviously just flashing the firmware and that was successful however, still frp locked. I couldn't find the exact firmware mentioned above. Is there a way to see what firmware i'm on from a locked device? I haven't figured out how myself if there is. Open to any suggestion at this point. Looking over this lot of 30 + tablets
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
It will always be viable because Samsung don't bother updating this device.

However there is any easier way that doesn't require messing about downgrading.

You will need the combo boot image though or an adb enabled boot image.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
Hello, glad to see your reply. And you seem to be talking about exactly the method I tried.

I followed this guide here

I used this firmware T280XXU0APC5_T280XAR0APC5_HOME.tar

I used the tool and made the adb enabled file to flash

flashed with odin, it was successful, however, i am unable to access the device via adb after flash...

perhaps there is a step i'm missing?

---------- Post added at 07:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 AM ----------

After flashing the adb enabled firmware and the device reboots and i plug back into the PC, it just shows up under {Portable Devices} as Galaxy Tab A (2016) I do have the Samsung drivers installed.

Willing and able to give the combo image you are talking about a try if you can point me in the right direction.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
[MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] Still looking for that combo image. I'm a little apprehensive to download some thing's i've found when looking. Any chance you can suggest one you know works? Thanks in advance.

On lunch break atm. I'll give this a try this afternoon. Thank you.

lol I put that last line about "is this too new" as a mild joke and give you a nudge. I was pretty sure it was old. Just like most of this stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
[MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION]

I'm starting to think something is wrong with this unit lol.

I flashed the provided boot.img without issue using Odin 3.13

NO errors, flash successful.

It rebooted on its own, debug pop-up did not show.

I read your instructions about booting the device while it was plugged in, gave that a try.

no pop-up. even disconnecting and reconnecting the cable does not illicit the pop-up.

I've made sure i'm trying usb 2.0 ports not 3.0 in case that would be an issue. no joy

I tried win10 ver 1803, 1809, and a a machine with pre-release on it, again, no joy.

---------- Post added at 01:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:08 PM ----------

I'm wondering If I might need to actually upgrade to a newer build to get this method to work, is that a thing?

Have you actually installed the USB/ADB drivers on your PC?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
Yes, I've tried the direct from Samsung and the universal adb drivers.

I know that works, because if I go into Recovery, and choose update from adb, then run 'adb devices' on my PC, i get my
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
I suggest you factory reset in recovery then boot without the cable in then plug in the cable after it boots to the welcome screen.

Also I'm sure this will work with any firmware, but if you choose to update, update to APH3.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
Factory reset from recovery - complete

reboot without device connected - complete

connect device - complete

pop-up - No joy

wow, I noticed a red-x on the charging icon when plugging into PC,

ran over to Regular charger, plugged in, confirmed no red-x

back to PC, plugged back in, No pop-up,

checked Device manager, - Shows as adb device, look back at device

POP-UP CITY *****ES!!!

frp tool worked like a charm. thank you so much
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
No probs. Glad you got it sorted. ;)

Cable would have been my next suggestion, wonder if its a bit dodgy, but strange it worked in download mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
To be clear. I didnt change cables. I just plugged into a charger once and came back. Same cable. And it worked. Your guess is as good as mine.

how cereal is the threat of the Trojan:Win32/Occamy.C detected by windows defender in the frp bypass?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
I wouldn't worry about it. Its a hacking program so it's probably just a false positive. I have several anti malware and antivirus programs running and none give a warning.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] killerskincanoe:
Well, I kept it around long enough to wipe my devices, Both Malware Bytes and Defender were screaming about it. I could care less, just don't want any ransomware, as they claim this is a Trojan I let it be removed after I was done using it. Thanks again!

Also on a work computer so I don't want to take any un-necessary risks.

I have a Samsung tab A(SM-T280) and I'm having issues with the FRP unlock. Would someone be able to give me a hand please?

Solved t280?

Hello guys...it seems your son's are quite similar :silly:

Did this method work?

I've been bashing my head up from site to site to remove the frp...now's the school's back and he's gonna need it.

Please reply.

Sorry. I no longer have access to that file.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ElroyJx:
I was able to get around FRP without a combination file or ADB access on T280XAR0APH3.

I'll try to list what I did:

Turn talkback on (Tripple press Home key)

Open talkback settings (Draw L on screen)

Scroll down to privacy policy and tap to launch the browser.

Turn talkback off (Tripple press Home key)

Using chrome, search and download:

An app launcher apk (note 8 launcher or nova launcher)

Account manager for android 5.1 apk

Frp browser sign in apk.

Get into Gmail:

While in chrome, goto a website

Select any text, choose share and pick Gmail.

Add a non-google account like outlook.

Let your email sync.

Pick any email with text.

Make a selection, long press and choose web search at the top (grey bar)

You should now have access to the google search bar, use it to access the file manager (type my files)

Navigate to downloads where all the apk files were downloaded.

Install the launcher first then open it.

Now open the file manager again then install the account manager apk and the browser sign-in apk.

Last:

Open the browser sign-in apk and tap the three dots at the top right corner, choose browser sign in.

Enter a working google account and login.

Reboot the device and continue with setup until you reach the home screen.

On the checking connection screen, I toggled airplane mode on then off from the power menu to make the skip button available.

Hope this helps.

Combination

I am needing some help... i think I am doing this right. I used a combination firmware and believe I am in developers mode. From here I do not know what to do next. I need to turn off FRP. Can someone help me out please.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ashyx:
It's quite simple on a T280 you only need the boot image to enable adb and an appropriate frp reset tool.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] GastonC:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Balze:
Hi everybody,

first of all I would like to thank everyone who helped in finding out how to get rid of FRP in the SM-T280.

Sadly there are only very few informations on the net that realy help.

I can't get mine running.

Even the try to install TWRP fails with a "Blocked By FRP Lock" notice.

I learned from this thread, that it should be very easy if you have the "boot image to enable adb and an appropriate frp reset tool".

I'm not able to figure out what exactly to use.

I_ve got the feeling, that ashyx is not willing to post it here public. And I can understand this!

The FRP is created as a tool to prevent stealing. Thus helping peaople getting around it has a bad smack.

I appreciate the work of ashyx. And i wonder if it maybe helps to offer a bill to get the inforamtion via private message.

Thanks for all the effort!

Hello brothers, i need your help its been a while since i stopped using my MI3, i want to use it only for gaming but i'm on miui kitkat really outdated version.

so i'm wondering what's the next procedure to update to latest roms (of course i will update TWRP first), but what do i need to flash first or i don't know. if i can recall there was a time when you had to flash a rom to merge the 2 systems which i think i did and went back to kitkat miui but now i don't know what to do in order to get to the latest roms.

so if somebody can help me out with the steps i appreciate it very much.

I followed this guide to root my GS7Ehere.

It was lagging a lot for me after following the recommendations, so I did a factory reset. The issue remains now that whenever I turn on/off my phone the boot animation is still the "custom" animation, not the stock Verizon animation Is there a way to recover it at this point?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Danhack000:
Hey mate, are you still rooted? Did you do a factory reset using Odin with stock firmware? What method did you use ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] pottoparktavius:
I figured it out. I did a factory reset through the phone and then through Odin and the custom screen is gone. Thanks though!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Danhack000:
Yup you go it, that's the way to do it. ??
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] XxLordxX:
Hi,

Could you please add a [SOLVED] tag to the title? It would help a lot :).

By the way, the reason why you needed to flash stock back again to get rid of the custom boot animation is because the boot animation is in the system partition of your device, while factory reset will only wipe the data partition of your device, leaving the system modifications as they were.

All the best,
