[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] galaxynote2:
Right now the seller says that he's awaiting response from his provider, I hope they'll give it to me without charge. There's a Samsung Store here, and they even promote the Note 8. But they don't even have a case for it so I doubt they would have an S-Pen, but I'll contact them if my seller doesn't have one. As you said, even as a "gift", you can't import anything without having Grade 3 tributary (or taxpaying?) identification code, named CUIT here. As I'm a student, I don't have one yet so It's impossible to me to get things outside of my country. Thankfully the situation is different than two years ago (even with that code, you wouldn't be able to import anything). I really appreciate your intention btw!

That's the second thing I did. I've tried all the 6 tips and none of them made a difference. Heck even without the tip is still malfunctioning. It's like something being stuck inside, but that's impossible since I didn't replaced the tip since the day I bought it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] j_hansen:
why don't you try and go down to the Samsung store there and show them the problem, if you do that and are polite about it they might just organise a new pen for you

If your seller will not solve isseu, just buy new S Pen on Ebay:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] alher591:
are you using a case that has a magnet? Magnets are known to not play well with the spen
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] galaxynote2:
Well thats way too old lol. The restriction was deleted in 2016-17 by the actual president. However, I'm unable to import it as I dont have a tributary code because I'm a student. I may have to contact Samsung here, but I'm pretty sure that the pen would cost me up to $150 if I get it from Samsung Argentina.

I'm not using any case with a magnet, I'm using a silicone case.

__________________________________

Fun fact is that my device now won't recognize if the S Pen is inside, resulting in a heavy battery drain and a constant alarm saying that I've lost the S-Pen. Same thing happened with the Note 5 when you broke the internal switch by inserting the Pen backwards. The thing is, now I don't know if the problem is the S Pen only, or the S Pen/Note combo. So now I really need a little help here:

I want to know how does the device recognizes the pen inside: is it a mechanical switch like older Notes, or an electronic sensor?. If it's mechanical/physical switch, then I'm done. It's broke, forever. If it's a sensor, it may stopped detecting the Pen because the pencil itself is broken, so If I replace the Pen only, it should be good.

I've seen JerryRigEverything's video about how Samsung made the Note 7 waterproof. Since the N8 S-Pen is the same as the N7 one, I came to the conclusion that the S-Pen holder is the same too. As you can see in this video at 3:19 mark, there isn't any plastic switch, but there's a cable coming from the upper part that snaps on the motherboard. I'm assuming that's the sensor. If I'm right, then my device is fine as I wouldn't be able to break that sensor. I don't know. I'll have to try a new S Pen and see what happens..

Building Your Own LG Theme

I've been able to fine tune the themes over the past few weeks and have been able to colour the settings icons on the main settings page as well as putting a background behind it. I've also been able to theme the switches initially getting over a problem of the 'off' switch not showing. Here is some updated screenshots of a green/grey&blue theme.

I've also attached the updated blue & red theme from the initial post. I've not fully completed this yet though as I started to concentrate on the green/grey&blue theme as I preferred that.

Anyway, I tried SNN Ver 2.o off of this site and it wouldn't upgrade. Any help from anyone before I start looking through site. Just looking for direction and a helping hand before I fry my MDA.

You will need to make sure that your phone is unlocked before you can proceed with any upgrades to wm6

Check out the Wizard Wiki also - lots of great info

Remember - you are on your own, you are responsible for any issues with your phone. But, if you read the sticky posts here, and on the wm6 wizard board - the directions, while extremely detailed - are right on.

Read, understand, and when you are ready to proceed - do not skip a step, and if the directions tell you to flash something, or upgrade something twice - it is for a reason - do it twice.

Good luck
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Loudaman:
mucho thanks

Much appreciated. Don't know if phone is unlocked, but like you said ... will read everything twice. Thanks alot. One more thing ... can you guide me to info on how to find out if fone unlocked ... or how to do so. Once again, thanks. Looking forward to using the info.

actually i bought the phone from ebay and it didn't come with sync cable its 8125 from at&t is there another way to unlock it somehow maybe. Please help me
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] S.V.I:
You can't upgrade without the usb cord and a computer (you can, but it is far more difficult.

First you need the USB cord

Then You need "Wizard Service tool" Type that in to the search engine on this forum.

Then read the stickies (the ones at the top of every forum) related to the wizard

hint: Faria; Dr. Puttingham.

Then search wor the "Wizard service manual" which will explain how your the wizard works and has IMPORTANT information for you in case you screw up and have to put your Wizard into bootloader mode manualy. You can still recover even if it looks really bad.

Then you need the lockwiz tool that works. I'm not sure that the wizard serice tool will unlock the phone, I did it the hard way before discovering it.

Then you need a version of WM5 that has a hacked IPL and SPL 1.5.xxx (you willl find that in the upgrading and modifying thread on the wizard forum

Once you downgrade; you can use the WST(maybe) or Lockwiz (most likely) to unlock your device (you may have to run it twice or more if you are not paying enough attention)

After the phone is unlocked you should upgrade back to the 2.26 version (Tmobile rom)

Then you should know how to flash roms by then.

Getting the thing unlocked is the difficult part. The cooks make flashing easy. You will probably not be able to yse your device for about a day while you make sure that you follow all the steps making sure that you get it right.

also read all of the directions well. I know it is a lot of information and can be hard to swallow. idoubt that you will "Brick" your wizard. It might seem that way at times; especialy while you are flashing the rom as it take a long pause sometimes right in the middle of it and it's scarry. You should be able to recover just fine. (I have a TMo MDA and it was built far better than I think HTC intended to build it)

Lastly. Take the plunge when you are confident that you have all of the tools, Information, and contingency plans (such as the 2.26 version of tmobile rom)

Word of advice while you are looking for an upgrade: All ROMs have "issues" so if you read all of the posts on a rom that looks good to you, you will see that a lot of people are complaining, asking for improvements and so on. This is what you should use to chose what you want to put into your phone. If you start a thread "which is the best Rom? expecting that the information will come to you; you won't get far. I know that my "join date" says one thing, but I have been looking at this forum since august off and on to see if I should even make an attempt or open my mouth before I figured out how things work here. Heard a preecher say once "God helps those who help them selves" and while I'm not partcularly religious, I have to agree with that kind of policy.

good luck, and don't panic if something unexpected happens; in about a half hour you will figure out how to fix it... unless you panic and loose your head.

Some dude was threatening to "throw (his) phone into a wall." :D That's not very productive.;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zabardast_1:
To unlock through lokiwiz02b tool,it must have direct physical connection between phone and pc via Activesync. Although,its possible to Activesync with BT(BlueTooth),but not sure if unlocking is possible,according to my understanding,it shud be possible,as all the data can be transfered and all the info can be exchanged via BT,there shudn't be a problem,but as I have never tried it myself,I can't be sure,its certainly not possible to flash a Rom with BT.Rom is flashed in Bootloaders mode only,and in bootloaders,Bt doesn't work,so flashing of rom is only possible via usb cable connectivity.

Cheers!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Myrddin Wyllt:
Everyone keeps saying "the USB cord" when the actuality is, "A(ny)" USB cord will suffice. Any USB to 5-Pin (Mini B) is fine. You should be able to score one from a local electronics source for less than $10 US. Considering their value to you (being able to use ActiveSync, being able to flash the phone), I'd say it is a sound investment in your future fun with the phone.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mr Hofs:
Without s-off you cant downgrade firmwares, not sure what that specific user is about but he is not flashing full ruu files or firmwares. Those will fail 100%

And there is no 4.41.401 firmware number. The last nougat firmware is 2.41.401.4
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Dark Sector:
It could be a typo.

I'm going to give it a try tonight and provide a feedback.

Thank you all.

And S-ON and Unlock Bootloader is mandotory for roll back marsmallow.Try my way and Relock Bootloader
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mr Hofs:
But you didn't flash a lower firmware or ruu than the firmware that's on the device already ? Because that's impossible with s-on. You can only downgrade firmware with s-off.

Did you install a lower stock backup?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Dark Sector:
I believe I'm doing something wrong which is why nothing worked for me. This is too much to do for a simple roll back and i don't blame you guys for it.

Remember the old days when all you had to do to install a ROM is root and place the ROM into a micro SD card.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mr Hofs:
I actually already assumed it would not work because you can't downgrade firmware on s-on devices. That specific post is in many ways impossible. Or he has a s-off device and wrote it wrong or he is just making stuff up.

---------- Post added at 11:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

If you want to roll back you need s-off and a MM ruu. That's the easiest way. What are your specs now.

Can you give the output of "fastboot getvar all"

Don't paste the serial and imei.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] frostnicko:

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mr Hofs:
So you are flashing partitions that are locked on s-on state. I just don't believe this downgrade method because you simply need s-off to downgrade firmwares.

That's all i can and will say about it.

Since i'm going to need to pay money to s-off the smartphone, i have taken it to a guy who is willing to roll back the firmware to Marshmallow for 10$.

He probably have the license.

Yeah, folks always believe downgrading will only work on S-OFF devices...

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Kaesberg:
i have a tmobile Z2 i bought online and was not able to unlock it. It is very clearly a tmobile version but when i tried to use the unlock from tmo it say i am not eligible for an unlock i then called and they said the device was not sold by tmobile then called moto and got the same story. as of now i stick in an att sim and it does nothing only works on a tmo sim. any advice on how to carrier unlock this device.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TheLooq:
T-Mobile devices require usage on the network before an unlock is allowed. Sometimes they will allow an unlock without use on the network, but since you did not buy the phone from them that most likely will not happen.

What is the error message you are receiving? If it is the device is not eligible, than it is in the server database and you should be able to unlock it after you have used it on the T_Mibile network.

If however you are receiving an unknown error, than the phone is not listed and you'll probably never get it unlocked.

Either way, it might be easiest to return the device to the seller if you're still within the return period.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Kaesberg:
Well even if I cant unlock it yet I have a friend who would be willing to use it for sometime and let it get time in on his account. The phone was already in use on the original sellers account so I thought that was enough. I will slap this tmo sim in it and give it some time it's the device I plan to do development on. I have a z2 from at&t so that my daily and this one can get bricked for all I care. I want to support the Z2 community

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] cr2:
OK, now i got it. It seems that you are forcing the CPU info BOOTROM mode, which allows a direct USB-SERIAL upload of the XLOADER into CPU SRAM, which initializes the SDRAM and loads FASTBOOT info SDRAM. After that you just use FASTBOOT for flashing the stock firmware.
