[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkenobi69:
I rooted my Verizon GS5 a while back using Towelroot. I turned off all the bloat I could find but I still have pretty bad battery life independent of what I do with the phone. I can have it sitting on my desk and it will be down to ~20% on the commute home not having touched it or I can use it periodically and be in close to the same situation. Using various battery tools, it appears to me that this is not a problem with a specific app and appears to be just how the phone works. Not using anything, the battery drops at a rate of 7%/hour so 5am-4pm (11 hours) will be close to 80%.

That said, I was thinking a different kernel, an upgraded ROM (running KitKat 4.4.4 currently), or a custom variant might be a good option. This is my only phone, so I'm not inclined to just jump in and start flashing it right now. If I could get help narrowing it down to a couple options, that would be great!

Current options I'm considering:

* flash Blaze or Avalon Kernel or something else on the unified kernel list

* upgrade to Marshmallow, Lollipop, or Nougat

* flash to CM or some other custom ROM and kernel

I was wandering where the option to turn on video calling is? when i make a call, it has the buttons "Video Calling" or "One-Way Video" but when i tap them, it say "Video unavailable when 'Video Calling' is turned off" but the settings for video calling is like non existent and not where it is when i look at forums for the att, tmobile, verizon versions. I thought the xfinity mobile version was basically the untouched samsung s8?
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Questions & Answers] BHarris:
I had used TWRP to install SuperSU to root. This seemed successful, but a day or two later the phone had powered itself off, and on power-up loops displaying the tiny red "Custom binary is blocked by FRP Lock" message. The phone will boot into download mode, but won't enter recovery mode.

I tried repeating the install of TWRP using ODIN 3.12, but now that fails. Tried installing factory images (\BL_G550T1UVU1APF1_CL8180604_QB9902404_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 etc.) w/ ODIN, and that fails too.

Is this an indication I don't have the latest image files? ODIN messages below:

Reviewing other threads I found a not that talked about installing only the "AP" file using ODIN. That seems to have worked. :)

Custom Binary Lock

The same happened to me: i have not found a complete solution, the closest i get to anything is; i put the On5 in Odin3 v3.12 and select the AP option and putting the recovery.tar file and running it. it goes good till its done and the result is Custom Binary (recovery) blocked by FRP lock in green letters. but still no success. i have tried trwp recovery, the home.tar file, each file by them selves and having trouble. i may not be an expert at this type of programimng but i pick things up quickly if there is any solution to my problem please let me know. thx............ by the way i have also tried kies and wont connect to it as well

I did all the same as you and have the same problem. Everything was fine till the phone got restarted.

XDA HEEEEEEEELP!!
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Questions & Answers] Drunkpilot:
You need to reinstall the firmware using Odin. Then, when you root again, you need to make sure you have oem unlock and usb debugging on in the developer options. Not having those on and rebooting when rooted cause the custom binary problem.
[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] IkerST:
I was wondering if rooting and installing a custom ROM will be very risky. I had previous experience with my still working s3 mini. The question is: is probable that it can have a fabric imperfect?? I had 1 month using it, and I hadn't any problems.

Make sure power saving is of in order to start Dex
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] www.aspcdoctor.co.uk:
Constant restarting of DEX

Hi All,

So I went and got myself a Samsung Dex to go with my S8.

To begin with I put on a new Rom which was not de-bloated so it would work making sure all the samsung apps are installed.

Once I did this (time consuming restoring apps etc) plugged it into the DEX it comes up the lovely boot screen on the monitor then instantly states ''UiI Has Stopped'' then restarts to show the login screen.

But then keeps restarting showing the login screen over and over until you remove the S8 which then goes back to normal on the phone. I have force stopped Samsung Dex app cleared cache - nothing :(, cleared cache on sytem ui - nothing :(

Wiped Dalvik cache etc in TWRP - nothing :(

Can anyone help or have any suggestions?

I really do not want to do a wipe of all apps that has been restored and start again

please advise, thanks in advance

Same problem here.

Same problem here. Using Note 8. Ordered dex earlier this week. Recieved today and can't get dex to come up. Zero power to dex. Tried several C chargers including the one that came with it. Tried various HDMI cables. Sending this one back to Amazon Monday and purchasing another one from Best Buy.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] hard12figureout:
I thought my Dex was faulty. It would not work no matter what i did. I tried everything. I finally took off my ultra slim case for shots and giggles and it worked perfectly. My case is thin as hell But it still kept decks from working. If Dex is not working for you try stripping your phone down to when you 1st got it and try it
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kbhasi:
Well, the solution for me seems to be just using a different HDMI cable between my monitor and DeX Station.

That is, because my problem seemed to be that I had to hold it in my hand in order to get it to connect. When I did, putting it down on the floor (because I'm running a temporary setup due to some home renovations) would cause DeX to close and drop me back into Nova Launcher on the internal display.

In fact, I am typing this post within the Samsung web browser in DeX. Pale Moon wouldn't run at all within it, and Firefox Focus would only run in what I call "phone mode" (fixed window size, but with options to switch between portrait and landscape orientations), those are without "DeX Labs" enabled. Argh, I wish Samsung allowed the "blue light filter" to be used within DeX instead of only on the internal display

Oh, and I'm actually using a Note8, but found this thread in a web search while troubleshooting my problem earlier on
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] pumafeet:
i have done something similar, bought a new Samsung monitor and wireless keyboard and mouse from PCWorld, upgraded to S8 then bought a DEX for around £50 from Ebay, Samsung have said it has a genuine serial number but so could another million of them. But it works as it should for a period of time then monitor goes blank. Its charging, the fan works, it works on phone when i remove HDMI but I'm not convinced its genuine Samsung?????

---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 PM ----------

I did the same as I got a message from the Ebay seller with that as a suggestion and as you say thought there is no way thats gonna make a difference, but unlike you I was right it did bugger all and it still does not work right.

Gutted it did not work

next option coming up???

Same thing to me, works for a few seconds and the screen goes black
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] blayzertrayl:
That's pretty much the same with me. It's as if the phone has no Dex drivers or the Dex app itself. The one thing that does work from the dex station is the plugged in mouse. The cursor appears on my s8 screen. But no Dex desktop springs up whatsoever.

I've got Gear VR ..and my S8 booted into everything Samsung (& oculus) VR automatically without any fault. Just doesn't to the same for Dex!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] limyc:
you need to use original charger and CABLE! I tried all cable and charger all not working, then I use both ori charger and cable and it work like a charm!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] limyc:
sorry my dex work for a while then failed again... seem like its not enough power to power the display....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] George Nashaat:
To make the dex work just put the phone on the dock and remove the charger cable the dex will take the power directly from the phone and you can put the charger later in the dex to charge the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] player911:
My KSWNG unit from Amazon is flaky. This one actually requires Power before it will load DEX. If I just plug it in without power, I only get screen mirroring.

I also can't charge and use the USB at the same time. It HAS worked before, once, but never again. If I plug up my USB mouse, it works until I also connect power, then the Mouse disappears. Since it requires power to launch Dex, I am forced to navigate using the phone as a touchpad. I have a BT mouse I could connect up. I am on Oreo CRA9 beta, so I am not sure if is 100% the adapters fault.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Stonewolf:
You NEED to use the original cable and charger unit (fast charger) which came with YOUR PHONE! Not the DeX Station! Just connect them to DeX! And you DON'T SEE any setup, icon whatever on your phone - once connected with the HDMI cable between the DeX and the monitor, phone screen will remain BLACK! And you should see everything on the monitor. I have found out that same DeX Station is working brilliantly also with Huawei Mate 10 Pro (apart from S and Note series).
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] snooginsguy:
I was having tons of problems with my DEX station and Note8, and I was using the stock charger etc. I uninstalled Action Launcher, and it seems to have fixed the issue. (I did uninstall a few other things that I'd installed recently, but Action Launcher was consistently installed the whole time I was having issues with DeX.) Might be worth a try to get rid of any 3rd party launcher and see if that helps. (Skype for Business was also one I'd uninstalled, so if you have that it might be a good idea to uninstall and check.)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Stonewolf:
Ok, I forgot to mention the original state of the phone - original stock rom, everything stock.

DeX Not Working, Not Even Charging

Hi All,

I have recently bought a DeX station, and it is not working, not even charging, regardless of what chargers I use, currently I am using the S8+ Fast Charger, which, when I dock my phone, DeX doesn't launch, let alone charge my phone.

Furthermore, I have tried using my friend's fast charger for his S6, when my phone is plugged directly to the charger, it fast charges, but when I plug it through the DeX, it does not charge the phone nor power the dock.

Has anyone ran into this issue before or have a fix for it?

Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] whatfield73:
I have an SMOS 4K Dex Station. It's been working great with the S8 to put DEX on my monitor. Yesterday it stopped working. The phone goes into DEX mode when put into the dock but the monitor stays in powered down (nothing connected to HDMI) mode. The dock lights up like it's connected and powered. If it helps, it also started not going into DEX mode if the power cord isn't plugged in.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tech81:
Solved (for me)

This may seem silly, but I had the same problem...turns out the video cable had come loose from the back of the monitor. No monitor, no DeX. As soon as I reseated the monitor cable, the phone kicked into Dex mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] nesgcmx:
Hi, i have a similar problem, my dex station its not working properly, it only "works" when i put the phone upside down but by that way usb ports stop working. I think is a sofware problem. Because before i was able to use the dex station with the same cables and monitor. I hope we can get an update from samsung to correct this issues very soon.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LuDi_GliSa:
LG G3 D855 (rooted, installed twrp recovery, was using Fulmics rom)

While i was normally speaking on phone it suddenly turns off. It wont turn back on, only LG logo shows and after that it just stops (black screen, wont recognize charger). I cannot access to twrp recovery because phone turns of before i could get to the recovery.

I have tried to pull out battery and back in and noting happens all the same. Also i have tried to charge phone after putting battery back in the phone, but it charges for few seconds and again same no red light, black screen and wont turn on.

I have another LG G3 and i have tried another battery but noting it is same. Battery form the phone that dont work, work in another LG G3, so it is not battery problem.

I have tried to connect phone to PC and i can hear sound of plugged device, but on the phone is all black no sign of turning on, so i can not access to my files on phone.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

And also tried tutorials like this :

1. Take out the battery

2. WITH THE BATTERY OUT OF THE PHONE AND NOT PLUGGED IN, press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds.

What this does is it drains all the power stored in the phone and takes the power source away so the phone can fully reboot and refresh the power cycle.

3. Replace he battery and plug in the phone.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

If you could help me I would appreciate it

Uh I almost forgot I have noticed that when I turn on other phone with battery and than fast put that battery in this one it stays on logo just a little bit more.

Hello Guys,

I want to buy a new PPC with built-in GPS receiver.

I have a Prophet (XDA Neo) and i think its performance is

very well. Iam using at a clock of 286Mhz and it is stable.

so my question:

Which is faster - XDA Orbit with 260 - 286 Mhz oder the new XDA Orbit 2 ??

thank you,

[Touch Cruise General] nickbro:
Orbit 2. It has a 400+ MHz processor

With overclocked Prophet to 286 you are close to Orbit 2 but... Orbit 2 has the biggest avantage which is the 128 MB RAM. And this... really makes the different.
