Well if you can live with 32 gb, change battery with a non oem, and use lollipop version, (if you care for good photos), then go for it.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbaha:
OK, never flash a custom rom, always unstable and you need to change roms every 3-4 roms which is a pain.

Never download fb and messenger, download the lite versions.

If you're so old that you still download music, get a phone with sd card slot.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funtikar:
For me, custom ROM actually gives me way better smoothness, specifically I can vouch for AICP 7.1.2(AOSP was meh).

It's just much more smooth.

I just cant ever imagine going back to stock rom kitkat/lollipop even the debloated ones, all the small details and functions have been implemented well in AICP 7.1.2..

Surprisingly some apps dont work well with stock kk or L, once I got AICP 7.1.2 ,its back on track.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkXylese:
So someone called me about 3 hours ago, and my phone just outright died. Couldn't turn it on - no signs of life, even though I had received a call just fine this morning, 2-3 hours before the random crash. Now I couldn't turn it on, and my first guess was that the battery was the culprit, though it was on charge through out the whole night.

So I pugged it into my powerbank, the phone turned on, but kept kinda bootlooping - where the "relock your bootloader pls" message would come up for half a second, followed by the phone restarting again to continue the cycle. This was without the battery charging animation - straight into booting.

After 20 or so tries to turn on it actually did, and I was able to discharge it past the point at which it crashed - most likely excluding the battery as the issue for now.

What could this be? Could it be a chip that's on its way out (as in about to brick my phone)? Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? Or maybe an app to check system stability / hardware test?

Edit: thanks to firefox, for saving the progress of this write up as my phone did the exact same thing after I locked it. My pebble watch vibrated to indicate that the connection is lost and I wasnt able to turn the screen on.

Had to plug the my 6P into my power bank again for it to turn on. Though it didn't do the glitchy bootloop this time.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] wrabbit24:
How long does your phone charge without using the fast charger? I found it quite slow without it. My phone charge from 22% to 93% needs to take 4 1/2 hours. With fast charger it would takes less than 1 1/2 hours to fully charged the phone. Is there something wrong with my phone?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] mehtamitul:

Hello everyone,

so yesterday my phone fell halfway into water.

Long story short, my phone is hardbricked, it wont turn on at all, screen stays black, no led turning on.

MsMDownloadTool recognizes my phone, but it failes at Downloading devcfg.mbn.

Maybe some has any idea ?

Thanks in advance, DasAlex
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Puddi_Puddin:
Well have you booted into driver signature mode? Have your ran the tool as admin? If your phone got bricked by catching water you might ask yourself if it isn't hardware damage.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] emuandco:
Why do you even try to fix software if you broke hardware? Why on heaven and earth do you even dare to switch it on again without drying it COMPLETELY by throwing the whole thing into salt secured by surrounding cloth or stuff for AT LEAST TWO DAYS?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mhaxx:
How can I perform a full backup of my S7?

I mean to backup the entire device to let to restore it to another S7 unit exactly like it is, everything the same (file system, icons, applications and conf, etc)

I need know the simplest way, thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mhaxx:
Is there any way to backup all my S7?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
Only way is with TWRP recovery, creating a Nandroid backup

TWRP will trip KNOX, there is no other method for a full backup
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mhaxx:
I deduce that TWRP is a kind of software to backup my device and it needs the unit is rooted (is KNOW the way I have to root my S7 flat?).

My phone is 1 year old so there's another year before the guarantee ends: does the rooting stultify my Samsung guarantee?

And what else do I risk performing a rooting? (data lost in case of root failure, more battery consumption, some apps don't work anymore, etc... in other words which side effects?)

Thank you for your support.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
TWRP is a powerful custom recovery

It does not require root, although the side effects are the same, tripping KNOX will void your warranty yes, and also stop any apps that rely on KNOX from working such as Pay, Health etc

Flashing anything custom, be it for root or recovery will trip KNOX, no way around that

You'd be better off flashing the same stock ROM on the 2nd S7 using ODIN which will not trip KNOX, then installing all the apps etc manually

Google backup might be able to restore some of the apps if you log in with the same Google account, have backup enabled on the first S7 and choose restore on the second S7

Samsung Smart Switch seamlessly transfers contacts, photos, music, videos, messages, notes, calendars and more to virtually any Samsung Galaxy device.

^^ That will help the transfer too
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mhaxx:
Let's ignore partial backupper like Smart Switch or Google one, they don't satisfy my need, that is to perfrom a complete backup (like the "image" of a PC, to be able to restore it on the same or another S7 unit getting the

100% same phone

). The only way is TWRP, you said., so now I have to understand how to proceed to limit the risks since I absolutely don't want to loose my phone/data during the procedure and I've never did anything like this.

Reading about KNOX I understand it's a sort of security solution around Samsung devices.. but how to bypass it, have I to download TWRP and it'll do everything for me?

One consideration before to proceed: my S7 is 1 year old and the battery starts to be bad, for example the phone powers off during a call even at 20% battery level! And now I can't use the phone up to 24h like at the beginning. Do you suggest to substitute the battery?

In this case, if I send my S7 to a Samsung assistance centre do they check if I tripped KNOW or it doesn't matter for this kind of operation?

What do you mean with "also stop any apps that rely on KNOX from working such as Pay, Health etc"? are there some apps that don't work after the KNOW tripping? :(

About "You'd be better off flashing the same stock ROM on the 2nd S7 using ODIN which will not trip KNOX, then installing all the apps etc manually": I haven't a second S7, I only want to perform a full backup to be able to restore my entire phone in case of S7 disruption or Samsung Assistance operation (they usually reset the unit :mad:) or on another S7 unit, without resintalling/configuring all my > 100 apps (it took 1 year to setup my "perfect" phone :D)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] slipmat100:
Without rooting your phone and doing a backup with TWRP it seems like Samsung Smart Switch combined with Samsung's own backup Cloud system is your only method unfortunately.

If you did go down the root method, TWRP back up is an exact "image" copy of your phone and contents so even if you wiped your phone completely and installed something else, you could then wipe it all again and do an exact copy of your original backup.

Some links that might be of use:

https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-twrp/

https://dl.twrp.me/herolte/

http://www.droidviews.com/install-twrp-galaxy-s7-exynos-variants-g930ffdxsw8/

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/smart-switch

https://devs-lab.com/root-any-android-device-in-single-click.html

Please note, doing any of this without knowing the steps can and will brick your phone so read carefully and decide if it's for you, good luck out there.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
You'll need to read up on flashing TWRP, for certain things you need to wipe data anyway for TWRP to work fully, not sure if Nandroid backup is one of those things, the TWRP thread is in the Exynos ROM development section

If you have a Snapdragon S7 you're SOL as it has a locked bootloader and can not flash custom anything

Yes those apps that rely on KNOX will stop working, Pay and Health and others will not work any longer once you trip knox, I think there is a workaround for health but not pay

New battery sounds the way to go, but that will also void warranty and the IP68 water resistance rating once you pop the back off

Yes Samsung repair techs will likely check if KNOX is tripped and charge you / not repair the phone under warranty

Basically there is a risk of losing everything once you start messing around with root / custom recovery / ROMs, so if that risk is too high then don't do it

And always backup your media to PC, you can do that with just USB > PC
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mhaxx:
Mine is SM-G930F, Exynos CPU.

Is there a list of apps based on KNOW which won't work after rooting?

First I substituite the battery and then I'll deal with TWRP. BTW do you suggest to substituite the battery by myself or let the Samsung assistance centre do it without risk?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mhaxx:
I changed the battery, now I could proceed with rooting/installing TWRP but Samsung centre told me that rooting cancels the guarantee.

So.. is there any way to avoid this? For example to restore the orginal ROM after the rooting in case of Samsung assistance..?

I haven't had a need to host Android files since I moved on from LG devices before my HTC 10 and Pixel, but I highly recommend Android File Host with optional FTP access on request.

If you prefer a regular cloud service, I recommend Mega. They give 50GB for free and they have an Android app as well as Windows. Possibly others (Mac?), not sure.
