[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] d1440:
Hi sorry to bother again, the Prince Cosmi Odin link is dead - if I omit the flashing step, is the phone still unlocked?

I'm looking to sell it on eBay as unlocked. As long as the buyer has no problems, that's all im concerned about.

Many many thanks

edit: sorry, I misunderstood, Im downloading the official firmware to flash. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] d1440:

Good afternoon!

As a phone tinkerer (lol) I am looking to purchase any spare Galaxy note 7 phones for any carrier!!! Feel free to respond to this message or private message me!

Thank you very much!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kendive:
I got this message to update my phone. I am gonna call verizon and tell them to stop sending me stupid messages like this.

Anyone else get this text from verizon?

I have updates blocked on my S8+
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kendive:
I am still running Build AQGL and reading all the negative posts on here about the last few updates. I think I will just stay on this build. Still gonna call the big V and be put on the do not ever bother list.

It's funny they try to scare you into updating your phone. I have never ever had an issue with calling out.

:p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] diet.tampon:
well good luck not being able to make calls to certain devices. I can't understand why you wouldn't want to be informed of OS issues like this. suit yourself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kendive:
Funny I don't have issues... If I did I would just go back to using my rooted Moto X Pure anyway or the Note 4. I always have a few phones to use on standby.

Plus there are alot of negitive posts about the updates and people wanting to flash back so why take the update. I don't see a reason.

Don't try to fix what's not broke. So far my S8+ is doing well other than we can't unlock the bootloader and root.

I will move on to another device before long that is. :good:

:silly:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kendive:
Another reason not to update... You do these updates and all Verizon does is put more crap apps on your phone... I would never buy a branded verizon phone again. unlocked is the only way to go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] nozzleman_85:
Then you don't get to ***** when the tides are turned and the unlocked versions are the last ones to get any kind of update on them. Cause lately that's what I've been seeing...the unlocked versions may not have any "carrier bloat" but they are SO FAR behind in updates (Security or OS updates)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kendive:
Don't really care about updates... If the phone works I leave it alone!!

If I was worried about it I would go back to rooting and do the custom ROM thing again.

[Nexus 6P General] ali8383:
I bought my nexus 6p on January 2015 and still work perfect with no issues except the performance , it seems cant handle new heavy apps and games , in the other hand multitasking become useless over the time so i have to clear apps frequently .

In this Thread i am looking for your advice >> should i wait for any new device with new generation snapdragon processor 845 ? to get most of the performance ?

or

buy Pixel 2 XL ?

or

wait the Pixel 3?!!!!

i will take your answers seriously .
[Nexus 6P General] TD4:
I just bought a Pixel 2 XL and it blows the 6P out of the water in performance.

Also it supports LTE-A already if I'm not mistaking even though when don't have that yet in the US.
[Nexus 6P General] epsiloon:
when the original pixel got released... the dual front-facing speakers on my 6P kept me from upgrading

and now Google released the pixel 2 with dual speakers but no headphone jack !

its like they deliberately forcing me not to upgrade -_-

.........................................................

i would still recommend the pixel 2 xl over any other device in the market right now.
[Nexus 6P General] Cmora24:
I am having the same issue, My Nexus 6p is giving me a lot of problems (battery, performance) but apart from that ,I love this ****ing phone

I don't want to spend a lot of money in Pixel 2 so, I am searching for a cheaper option

Any advice??
[Nexus 6P General] Woodrow256:
I upgraded to gs8 plus a few months ago. I hate it. Im giving it to the wife, so im going back to the 6p until i decide on a new device . Im thinking op5t. Pixel 2xl is just too much money.
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
I would still be on my N6P were it not for the boot loop issue. My battery had degraded to 90% but would still last a full day for my normal use. The N6P is a powerful, fast phone. If all you have are performance issues, then I would back up the phone and completely wipe it. Use a full image and install it fresh. Returning your phone to stock will make it perform like a new phone, guaranteed. When and if the phone finally succumbs to the boot loop issue, THEN replace it with the new best/fastest phone on the market at that time. The Pixel 2 XL is a phenomenal phone and I love everything about it, BUT I would still be using the N6P if it hadn't developed a hardware issue. I was able to use the 4 core fix to get it running and Google gave me a $155 trade-in, a $100 credit at the Google Store, and a free Google Mini speaker. I paid $400 for the N6P new (Amazon Prime day) so I don't have any bad feelings. I've had every Google phone since the Galaxy and this was the first one to give up on me before I was way past ready to upgrade. With the latest price drops on the P2XL, I would say you can afford to wait a bit and see if they drop further or offer better incentives. Cheers.
[Nexus 6P General] antmunny:
Huawei replaced my battery and USB port/daughterboard for free a few months ago (RIGHT before my warranty expired)...but you're right. the phone is painfully slow when playing certain games.

have you seen any good deals on swappa?
[Nexus 6P General] ritchea:
Until the 31st (?), Google has a trade in program on pixel 2/XL. 6P that turns on with no screen cracks is giving $144.(https://store.google.com/config/pix...gclsrc=aw.ds&dclid=CMyK-tbjqNgCFYIkhwodgksAtQ). That leaves a lot but not as much. For about two months, we've been battling that battery deterioration. It's now cutting off at 50% battery. It was a first day Google store purchase, but we're still gonna try Google support since this is a well-known hardware issue. When that fails, we'll have to replace the battery. We have $0. for a new phone at the moment. It was such a great phone----until it wasn't.
[Nexus 6P General] stankyou:
I'm moving on to OnePlus 5T. The 6P battery issue have become annoying. I have a replacement battery on the way but lets face it, the Snapdragon 810 is just an inefficient processor and sooner or later I would probably have battery issues again or worse.

I would love to stay with Google (I've owned Nexus 4, 5 & 6P) but the Pixel phone's asking price seems unreasonable vs what I use my smartphone for.

Goodbye to guaranteed software updates & support. I've been spoiled by Google too much in that regard but that's the way it goes sometimes.
[Nexus 6P General] ritchea:
FWIW, I agree with everything you've said. Wish I could afford the 5T but glad you can. I just need one more year out of the new battery then a new phone.
[Nexus 6P General] pipnmike:
I'm moving onto Pixel 2 XL. For the past few months, I've had the strangest issue with my 6p and I can't seem to solve it. The phone will shut off randomly. But it's not completely shut off. I need to press and hold onto the power button twice before i can get it to turn on again. If I leave it in that "shut off" mode, the phone gets warm after some time, so it's almost as if it's in some sort of a suspended state. I know it's not a battery issue because when the phone is turned on again, it's at the same battery percentage. I've tried multiple roms and still had the same issue. I've tried not installing any custom kernels with no luck. The breaking point was when this "shut off" happened overnight and i didn't hear the alarm in the morning. Don't want to deal with it anymore. The Pixel can't be delivered soon enough.
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
wait for a price drop of pixel 2.

when it goes down to 499$ get it.

[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] sevenoverthree:
Hey everyone- I am in the same boat. I have the US version of the M3 and am trying to root. I grabbed DC Unlocker and figured out the manufacture mode trick of using the calculator in landscape mode and using the () characters in place of *#.

Things were progressing fine but for the life of me, I can't get the drivers to load. I have HiSuite running fine, but the Huawei Android Driver pack from DC Unlocker absolutely will not install. My PC is running windows 7 x64 and it is running 100% fine. The drivers seem to have a compatibility conflict, and there seems to be no option to get the installer to run, nor is there anything in the device manager with which I can manually install the drivers, so there is no "modem" or com ports as the DC Unlocker requires. As a result, I can't detect the M3 and it seems I won't be able to unlock my bootloader. Can anyone please offer some suggestions?

Many thanks in advance :/
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] sevenoverthree:
Hello again! Problem Solved. As it turns out DC Unlocker had a second version of the Huawei Android Drivers (with a 2 at the end) that was located in their download repository. Their guide does NOT point to this file, and from what I am gathering, the old version is for XP. Version 2 installed without a hitch, so I unlocked the bootloader 5 minutes later. On to rooting and finally 5ghz... Jeez.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jmandss:
Please forgive me in advance if this question is a repeat, as I've looked and somewhat found the answer, but not 100% sure. I'm getting a new Tilt this week as a replacement due to a broken key on the keyboard and is it possible for me to copy the Rom, Radio, and all the apps that I have on my current tilt. I finally seem to have it set up the way I like it and would like to be able to make an exact image to transfer to the new Tilt. Is this possible, or do I need to Load everything again including HardSPL.

Thanks in advance,

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] fone_fanatic:
keep in mind that you will have to cid unlock and hardspl your new device because those aren't transferred over with a backup.

ALso i'd recommend removig the hardspl and cid unlock if you did them just for warranty reasons. Instructions to do so are found in a sticky'd post on this forum.
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] Riyal:
Hi guys! Just got this phone today and of course did research and stuff... I just want to ask due to the issue of getting the error

"custom binary(RECOVERY) Blocked due to remaining installment balance"

and RMM State: Prenormal

Returning whenever you factory reset the phone. What will happen if I install a custom recovery then flash a custom ROM and factory reset the phone? Will the RMM State still return? If yes what will happen? Will I be barred from using download mode again? Will my phone ever boot up since it has a custom system?

Would appreciate if somebody could answer these for me. For now still waiting for the grace period of not being able to flash lol!
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] RicePlay33:
The fact is, this RMM State will be gone if you let your device up and running during 168 hours (aka 7 days)

Once reached, in your DL mode, RMM State will be gone and you'll be able to flash any custom binary BUT!

If you flash a custom binary, format data partition or make a change in any way and then reboot before 7 days it will cause the RMM State to come back and probably soft brick your phone.. I've flashed TWRP almost a week ago. I've been able to backup my EFS (at least lol) but I've messed up something while I was formatting data, so I've ended up reflashing stock the rom because I couldn't boot re-locking me down for another 7 days..

An other member successfully rooted and flashed TWRP to his phone but when he updated the binary of SuperSu (which asked him to reboot the phone), he ended up with a soft bricked phone showing the same message ("custom balance etc..") and RMM State was back in his DL mode.

Tomorrow, that will be my 7th day since my last attempt so I'll try to flash TWRP and Magisk then wait another 7 days and then reboot. That sucks soo much but I guess that might be the key of the root magic for now..

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Dark Jedi:
How big you looking? I have a 28600 anker that has fast charge. They now have a USB C PD bank that should charge faster than reg USB to C. Have heard RAV are good also. Just putting that out so you can have a choice and compare. I do know one thing I got a 5k version for my son non fast charge. I took it on vacation in July invade we needed a smaller charger on the go. Forgot it was in the suitcase. I pulled it out last week and it still had a full charge. So anker seems to know their stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] bpleat:
I was looking around 10Ah, else they get too heavy for just me. For when my family travels, 20-40.

What's the URL/model for your 28600? I don't see any with that value on Amazon.com (oh, the 26800 for $83?)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Dark Jedi:
Yeah it's the $83 one. I got it on sale for like $60. I will say get what you need. I got the big one because it was a disney trip and we all know smartphones drain fast. Needed the power bank to last all day. Whatever you get they are very handy and not reduced to looking for a plug.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Nick216ohio:
This question for everyone. How long does the battery pack hold its charge? A week, month, longer? My main reason is power outages. My last portable would be dead by the time I actually needed it. Would be nice one held juice 2-3 months. Idk if thats possible? I live in the city. We usually have power outage once every few months. Sucks being in the stone age for 0-6 hours. Depending on what caused it and how much damage.

Heavy power consuming apps and constant usage if WhatsApp and Facebook will definitely drain the battery of any smartphone.

I just acquired a Note 8 that's the unlocked Hong Kong variant. It has a laundry list of issues thanks to the China based firmware. Is there a way to install US based firmware?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Phazonclash:
Hi guys, long story short, I decided to go back to my stock carrier ROM (Canadian SM-G935W8 variant) to get VoLTE and WiFi Calling to work. I expected it to be a very outdaded build and I was surprised when I saw it has the November security patch.

So yeah... I installed it the usual way: Flashed with Odin, then I installed TWRP, No-Verity-Opt-Encrypt and finally Magisk, and everything's working great so far

Here's my question:

When a new firmware is released, will flashing it with Odin delete my files and apps? Will the partitions be writable or will I need to re-flash No-Verity-Opt-Encrypt and format my Data partition again?

Thanks ;)
