[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tarequae:
Hello everyone,

Just wanted to pick your brains on a very unusual problem I have. So my phone is a galaxy s6 but I really don't think it makes a difference here. I installed a range extender at home and can't seem to have Twitter Videos load when I connect to the extender. If i connect to any wifi router directly, it works. On mobile data, it works. Note that over my range extender, Snapchat works absolutely fine and instagram loads videos with no issues. It seems that everything on my phone works like a charm when connected to the wifi extender except Twitter videos!! Tried everything, deleting cache and data, uninstalling and reinstalling....but nothing changed. Videos load anywhere with no issues except on Twitter. I am using the official Twitter app. Same thing happens when trying other Twitter clients. I have also upraded the extenders firmware (I'm on a d-link DAP-1720). If you've got any tips for me, please do share. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] JeffDC:
Does sound strange, particularly if the range extender's filters have been left alone/none installed, and it is being used as an AP? Brand?

If you are using it as an AP, recheck your main routers filters, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tarequae:
Thanks for your reply Jeff. I'm using a d-link DAP-1720 as ny range extender. Not sure which filters to check in the main router as i am not a network specialist but ill give it a shot
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] JeffDC:
Tarequae, 1) is the D-Link 1720 setup as an AP? I believe if you have it set to AP, then all filtering, etc, goes to the main router. Well, it does on mine, I'm using an R-7000 as one of my APs. and an R8000 as my main2) What is your main router?

So far it does have the initial 'feel' that it is the 1720, as you said earlier, you can Twitter through the main . . . so see if you can set the 1720 as an AP and see what happens.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Garoto1973:
Hi! Former Note 4 owner here, about to switch from One Plus 3T to Note 8. It has been a sweet ride with the OP3T but I am getting Note withdrawal already ! I just realized I buy (and lose) cheap styluses (styli?) every other week as I spend a lot of time editing pictures on the fly for our home business FB and IG ads.

Have a simple question:

In my country we have 2 variants available, N950F and the Korean N950N. almost same price, gladly both Exynos which is what I want. However, I would like to know if there is any advantage for any of them regarding system updates timing from Samsung, security updates and the like. Also, any chances of Oreo being rolled out for one of them earlier than the other?

I dont feel a need to root at the moment although just in case I would like to know if there are any major differences or ease of doing that for any of them . I did some research before posting the question and looks like N950F has more dev support but correct me if I am wrong.

I just need to decide on this "XDA world problem" to pull the triger. No one I know understand my conundrum and they look at me like I am from Mars.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] myechophone:
Updates will be released in tandem. One after other. So not much delay
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
950N , yes I said it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
Lol...you might as well give OP a reason why you suggest one over the other :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
It believe you have better color options and memory?plus made in Korea. LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
n950n = no possible OEM jail time issue. F's are a hit or miss. Uk seem ok but the rest of asian and Oceania seem to have the dreaded 7 day jail time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MrElectrifyer:
Really? Why is there no possibility of "jail time" on the SM-N950N? Kindly elaborate.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
because the OEM unlock is there by default. My first attempt at a note 8 was a dual sim 950F and OEM unlock was not there. Not being able to root/flash twrp for 7 days and possibility of jail time every time a new rom or csc is flashed is not my cup of tea.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MrElectrifyer:
Well then, that makes me better appreciate my 256GB SM-N950N.

I was on the lookout for the 256GB SM-N950FD 'cause I wanted a globally unlocked, Multi-CSC supported, and unbranded bloatware-free Exynos device with support for OTAs. The Dual SIM support is a welcome added bonus. However, never came across a 256GB version of the SM-N950FD, only 64GB version, which I'm not willing to settle for, especially as I plan on keeping this device (my first ever Samsung Smartphone) for the next 5+ years (unless something a whole lot more useful becomes available) and I'm using it more and more as a full-fledged Pocket PC.

After you've rooted, do you always clean install via Odin in order to install the monthly security updates? Or how do you update the device? Please and thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
for monthly updates, no need to be rooted.

If you root then chances are you have twrp and probably are on a custom rom. the dev which makes the rom will update their Rom(monthly?) and then just flash that in twrp.

only thing you need to do is maintain your bootloader and modem up to date via odin. never flash these 2 firmwares that might be provided within roms or as seperate files as they are almost always for n950F.

I too have a 256gb version and it has been nothing but smooth sailing!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MrElectrifyer:
Thanks for the information. I don't have a custom ROM (frankly, I really like Samsung's feature-packed stock ROMs), I rooted so that I could switch the CSC to the Canadian Fido CSC (FMC) to enable WiFi Calling and also native call recording. Unfortunately, haven't figured out how to get either of those working yet, but also using Magisk root for other handy root applications like Titanium Backup, DisableService, etc., all while keeping Safetynet happy :)

In this situation, how would you suggest I do the updates without losing system data? Is there a way via PrinceComsy Odin? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
updates meaning CSC ? just flash the note 8 CSC pack from tkkg1994

you can also manualy extract the files to your device(dont forget to set file and folder permissions after. I acctualy post updates for the Canadian xac region file in that dev,s thread so he can incorporate them in his flashable zip.

Regarding csc options for wifi calling, unfortuantely Fido is Rogers. they blacklist foreign imei codes. meaning that you need a device sold by them which is total BS.

this is the only "downside" of having a non-carrier branded device
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MrElectrifyer:
Thanks again for the information. Sorry for not being clear, I meant entire firmware updates, like the security updates and the upcoming Oreo update. How would you flash them on the SM-N950N without losing data? I once attempted updating via Odin with HOME_CSC of the SM-N950N in the CSC slot, but it factory reset my Note 8. I then re-attempted with the HOME_CSC of the SM-N950W (the Canadian Note 8), but Odin threw back an error. Again, I'm not on a custom ROM, only changed the CSC.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
stock csc firmware will wipe your fone at first but once its changed then it should not wipe after. it wipes when carrier/region is switched. flashing stock firmware from an F device to a N is not going to work.

logically is you flash the next korean full firmware update(bl,ap,cp,csc) it shouldint wipe. anyways if i remember right once csc was switched on your 1st attempt then it shouldint wipe on your subsequent tries. only thing that dies wipe is when sim triggers region to change.

if you have trwp then flash the CSC pack. it won t wipe that im sure of.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MrElectrifyer:
So given that logic, it would always wipe my Note 8. 'Cause after flashing the official SM-N950N (SKC) firmware via Odin (which makes it now the SKC CSC), I again changed CSC to FMC via [MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION]'s CSC Selection tool. Attempting to flash future updates would again trigger a CSC change from FMC to SKC, right?

I understand and can confirm that. However, that's used after flashing the official firmware updates, which results in a wipe in Odin as it's changing from FMC back to SKC, if I understood correctly. I'm looking for a way to avoid the wipe when doing the firmware update.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
just don't flash csc part in odin next update. always use the CSC packs. of course since you flash AP then you have to reflash twrp each time and prolly have to format storage?

but all things put aside, you really should try his Iron man rom! make a trwp backup of your current state incase you want to go back.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] itsmohsink:
So what about SM-N9500, the last update I received had Android January Security fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Maroc_Specops:
I jave the F edition.

Never went to jail. Flashed over 30 times different roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
you are part of the 1%

maybe not literally 1 per cent but alot of F owners have had issues with "jail" time. there is a whole thread dedicated to the OEM unlock issue.

---------- Post added at 04:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 AM ----------

your on chinese snap dragon. totally different beast.

not sure if that makes updates come faster or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
n950n just got an update 1 day before the Fs.

the rest are trailing at lest 10 days behind.

so id say the update speeds is:

Ns

Fs

U's

0's

W's

time = X quantity of space... lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Garoto1973:
Thanks, I think I will go with the N version although the F looks ok too, N is sold by Samsung itself here so I feel more secure. Great discussion guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
i went for the N for the easy root(no OEM unlock issue too) and the 256gb
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Pure+:
Is development for the N version any different? Like fewer rom options and what not, or pretty much same as F version?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
usualy F roms work for N versions.

As F roms are more popular, there are inherently more of them.

if rom dosent include bootloader and modem, then that F rom should work on the N version. (if aroma install, simply dont choose to update BL and CP)

---------- Post added at 06:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 AM ----------

yes.

if its a snapdragon to an exynos then double yes
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Pure+:
Cool thank you for the info. Also was wonderi g if you'd take a look at this, I found supposedly a 64gb sm-n950n but I wasn't aware they made the Korean model in anything less than the 256gb variant. Does this thing look legit to you?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
yes the N950N was also made in 64gb.

ask the seller to give you the full model number on the box.

Ever since the latest update, the speaker will only work for about a minute or two after bootup. Most the time after bootup it doesn't work at all. Resetting the cash in recovery will make it work for those few precious minutes. Factory reset, no go either. Until this is fixed I cant make or receive calls/use any media or that app will crash. PLz Help.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salamonadam:
Hi,

I have an LG G4 H81022b. I bought it used from e-bay. It was working fine, the battery was a little weak, it wasnt new.

An update to Android came out, but while updating the battery was very low on power and the update got interrupted.

Currently any time I want to uninstall an app the phone crashes and restarts. Cannot login to skype, crashes also. Sometimes when I want to join a wifi it crashes also.

According the system information it has android version 6.0, Kernel version 3.10.84.

I am not in IT, if any other info you might need please let me know and I check. Is there any way to reinstall Android on the phone?

Factory reset did not help, the same errors were present.

Please let me know how it could be fixed.

Thanks and BR

Adam
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinkec27:
So I have an S3 neo and it is about 3.5 years old and it has been starting to drain battery pretty quickly and I thought maybe it just needed a new battery so I had two laying around,one was dead but the second was perfectly functional so I put it in the phone and it is still draining,and I tried these batteries on a Galaxy S3 and they worked fine.

And now I had the batteries charged to 100 percent and they would drain in literally half an hour where I can usually get let's more than half a day. And it charges at let's say normal rate when using the phone while charging,and when it is idle it charges a bit too fast than usual.

What can I do? This is really bumming me out,and could it be because I set it to performance governor?

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] TK3950:
I brought this up in a similar thread, but I'm getting pretty desperate for information now. I am trying to root my recently acquired HTC 10. It's running 7.0, and after trying a guide myself, Bootloader mode now reads S-On, Unlocked, and Modified. I have unlocked the bootloader using the HTCdev instructions. I have tried flashing, from Download Mode, the latest TWRP pme from here. In fact, I've tried every .img listed there. After some searching, I tried the four versions found here as well (for future reference, 2 versions of 3.2.1-1, and 3.0.3-10 and -11). My searches recommended trying 3.0.3-6 or -9, but these have vanished from the internet. All .img files I've tried produce the same result. 1, Flash succeeds. 2, I choose "reboot to recovery mode" or call the command through adb. 3, the phone shows the HTC logo with red disclaimer text beneath it. 4, the phone reboots on its own. 5, the same screen from 3 shows, HTC logo + red text. 6, the phone reboots back into Bootloader mode.

Does anyone have any suggestions, or is anyone able to find the TWRP 3.0.3-6 or -9 PME versions somewhere?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Quick question would be what region,device model etc... Need more input... Have you tried shutting down device, holding volume down and power button,booting to download mode,reboot to bootloader and then selecting recovery? Twrp-3.1.0-1-pme.img worked fine on my Nougat device(US/Dev Version)...I'd try running an RUU for your device/region from download mode just in case something got messed up somewhere... then retry flashing Twrp
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] TK3950:
Thanks for the reply.

I have tried your reboot method, but I've never tried an RUU, not sure where to even begin with that. Nevertheless, according the manual with this phone, it is an HTC 10 M10h (intended for use in EU). Is there a different image for the EU version, or is part of the process different? I didn't see information in any guides to distinguish that.

Images below. WARNING. I forgot to scale the images down, they're quite zoomed-in.

I noticed in one of these photos, it says 'pmec' at the end of the model info. Using that, I looked up a TWRP pmec image, which seems to have flashed properly now. Thank you [MENTION=5345690]Wonders_Never_Cease[/MENTION] for the guiding question. Hopefully the rest of this works out as planned.

EDIT: Thanks for the help there. I had no idea that I would need a different TWRP, pmec instead of pme, in order to get into recovery on this model. Everything has been installed and rooted now. Thank you so much for the help.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] nonnaryplayer:
Hi,

My OP5 worked like a charm with Resurrection Remix 5.8.5, but recently my pin was randomly unrecognised, and I solved it with lock key files suppression. I ended up to restore a backup but got a bootloop, that occured with every rom I tried.

I had bootloader unlocked and magisk flashed.

I finally managed to flash and boot Resurrection Remix 6.0 (after wiping every partition), but at every reboot, when in twrp 3.2.1.0 (also tried on 3.1.1), I'm unable to mount data partition. Also it doesn't ask for my pin as it did before all those reflashing. The rom seems to have no issue (except some bugs).

I tried reflashing twrp without result and deleting internal storage is working so far as long as I don't reboot. I found some threads with similar problems about Oreo's related roms but I don't know if they are related to my issue.

I'm currently on RR6.0, bootloader unlocked, twrp 3.2.1.0 and no root, and encrypted by default.

Do you have any idea on this ?

Thanks for your help.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TheMadScientist:
I Apparently read incorrectly, I thought you meant charging off your laptop not the laptops charger itself.... Normally laptop chargers are 15 to 19 volts which is way to much but again I am pretty sure the devices fail safes would kick in and limit charging....
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
You could, it should still limit the charging rate to 15W.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] the_scotsman:
Nope, it depends what the voltage is. Your statement is correct if the voltage is either 5V or 9.6V, as those are the voltages used by the phone.

But laptops are usually way more than that. And if OPs one is higher voltage, it's going to kill the battery and potentially cause cause it to swell up and expand.
