[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tailgunner9:
If I install G955U1 firmware on my AT&T S8+ will I still have VoLTE??? It is a Sim Unlocked AT&T phone Branded!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Elem3nt0:
Ok so the phone i have is/was actually a G935T, and had G935T firmware (BRC1) even though it says G935A on the board inside the phone. I tried to flash a different firmware, foolishly without turning off FRP, or turning on OEM, yeah im dumb. I ended up being stuck with the SBL error upload mode and couldnt even get back to download mode no matter how many times i tried, eventually i learned about EDL mode and took the phone apart and shorted the TP and re programmed the phone etc. and got it back to download mode.

Everything i flashed would always be successful in Odin, however nothing would ever boot past the looping S7 edge boot screen and recovery on every single firmware would also loop and ultimately give me kernel panic errors. i began to suspect that maybe i left something unplugged inside so i took it apart again and tried to keep the heat shield pressed down a bit more (since i had to open it up to access the test point) as i assembled the phone back together. No more kernel panics, but the boot looping was still present. I have tried G935T, A, P, V and U firmware and all of them do the same thing. Ive used the proper PIT files.

To make things worse, i flashed Oreo without realizing that i was putting my bootloader in handcuffs. To make things even MORE worse, i used a tool which claimed to convert an odin archive to be ADB enabled. now my device boots and says S7 edge etc, but then immediately goes to SBL error upload mode. Recovery still loops. Whats interesting though, is that since i used the converted archive, my device says exactly this in download mode:

ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)

PRODUCT NAME: SM-G935A

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

FRP LOCK: ON

WARRANTY VOID: 0xffffffff (0x0)

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE fffffffe

RP SWREV: B-2 (-2, -2, -2, -2, -2) K8 S8

SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE

IDDQ: G(25), S(7) mA

CPU SERIAL NUM : 0X1b9cea13

Fused open loop voltage: 1030mv

Any help would be much appreciated. Its going on nearly a month now trying to get this thing to work. I dont care about warranty, i dont care about knox i just want my phone to work....i cannot find any information about test device, how to go back to system status official or how to properly reformat all partitions that effect FRP or whatever the hell is locking me out of it. Also i am now not even able to flash ANY firmware because it keeps failing saying something about aboot fused -2 and none of the firmware i have will successfully flash. Im stumped.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Forsh:
Hi,

I've been offered a cheap unlocked refurbed V30 H931 variant and I was wondering if it will work with Mint Mobile (T-mobile) out of the box or if I should flash it with H932? My SIM is already activated and working on my phone, i'll just be swapping it out of my old broken phone and into the V30. Also, I travel to europe a lot (mainly the UK) should I flash a different firmware before I go each time to ensure I have the best radio and can connect to 4G service? My old phone is a UK phone and I don't get US 4G with it irritatingly.

Thanks!

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Forsh:
Is it likely to work with T-mobile/Mint out of the box? Is there anything you would recommend I do to improve signal/performance with T-mobile/mint on the AT&T variant phone?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
AT&T H931 is locked to AT&T. You'll need to Frankenstein it to carrier unlocked US998. Many are running US998 on T-Mobile.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I'm getting an unlocked 931 tomorrow, and will be trying it on mint mobile. If it's unlocked (as the seller says), I think it will work on t-mo network. It certainly has all the LTE bands needed (except 71 unfortunately).

I'll post back if it works or not.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I can say that the unlocked 931 I got works on mint mobile. The LTE signal isn't very strong but the download speed is good and everything else works fine. Really like the v30, what a nice phone.
[General Questions and Answers] MarylinC:
Hi there.

Please could someone suggest how I can migrate all the data from a Galaxy S5 with a broken screen over to a new Galaxy S5 which is the identical model.

The broken phone is not locked and internally is working normally but after being dropped I think the LCD has gone so badly that I cannot make out anything on the screen. It still seems to respond to any touch input OK.

If I could see it I would have simply used Samsung Smartswitch which is installed on both phones to transfer everything. However, without being able to see the screen I can’t find it in the apps to open it.

If I could remotely get the phones desktop up on my PC maybe I could open the app from there. With Smartswitch open on both phones I could see on the new phone where to tap on the old on to make it start the transfer.

Does anyone have any suggestions how I can either open the app remotely or maybe suggest another way to move everything across.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you have or can get USB debugging enabled on the device, this tool should work well for you.

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2786395

If you never personally enabled USB debugging in the system settings on your device, then it isn't enabled, which means you'll have to get it enabled somehow. There are few ways to get it enabled even with the broken screen, but it very much depends on exactly which model number your S5 is. Look in system settings>about phone>device info>model number or system settings>about phone>hardware info>model number to find your model number, or you can remove the back cover and look behind your battery to find the model number.

I'll try to help as much as your device will allow me.

But first, tell me exactly what kind of data you want to transfer.

Do you mean the usual user data such as pictures and etc..?

Or do you also mean the user settings, info for their various logins/accounts, banking info and deeper more personal or even system info?

Does the user have an active Samung account with the broken device registered in their account? If so, you can try transferring via their Samsung account.
[General Questions and Answers] MarylinC:
Thanks for replying Droidriven.

The exact model number is SM-G900F.

Just to clarify, it is my brothers phone that is broken and he and I both have the same model. The new phone is also the same model which has been ordered but has not arrived yet. It should arrive either this morning or Monday.

However, for the moment I can at least try things out on my phone first. On my phone USB Debugging is off by default so I am sure it has not been enabled.

As I said previouly, the touch screen seems to respond because I can still answer calls simply by knowing where to swipe. I know where the apps button is on the home screen but obviously I cannot scroll through the apps to find the settings icon.

I am hoping to transfer as much as I can including apps and user settings, texts, etc.

My brother has not registered for a Samsung account.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
To enable USB debugging, you can try using one phone as a guide to go through the settings menu. On the broken phone, using the working phone side by side while copying the exact motions and touchs try navigating to system settings>about phone>software info>build number(or wherever build number is located in your device settings, it varies), tap 7-10 times really quickly on the spot where build number is located on the list, if you get it right, you'll enable developer options, from there, using the other phone as a guide, go to system settings>developer options>USB debugging and enable it.

Or, try this tool to get USB debugging enabled while in download mode, and then use Odin to flash TWRP custom recovery instead of the stock firmware as described in the guide, you don't need to flash the firmware, just TWRP if you choose to do so while you are at it, TWRP can be used to backup and transfer the data but involves flashing the other device with TWRP also.

http://www.99mediasector.com/enable-usb-debugging-locked-phone-without-access-setting/

Once you get USB debugging enabled there are options:

1) You can use the tool I linked you earlier.

2) You can use adb to backup the data that you want to keep then use adb to transfer the data to the new device, adb works through a command terminal on PC and requires no touch input, you can do everything by command line if you find/know the correct commands to do what you need, as described in the link below, but you can ignore the stuff about unlocking your bootloader.

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/general/guide-phone-backup-unlock-root-t1420351

3) You can flash TWRP custom recovery via Odin and then use TWRP to backup the data that you want to save and then flash TWRP on the device the data is to be transferred to then use TWRP on that device to restore all of the data that you saved onto the new device, if the device that is being replaced via warranty is the exact same device and will be used by the same person, you can completely backup everything on the device and then completely restore all of it on the new device. Just verify that your bootloader is not locked before you flash TWRP, it won't work with a locked bootloader.

4) You can try using Samsung Smartswitch on PC.

Those are just the options I can think of off the top of my head, there may be some other ways, it's just a matter of what you are comfortable with or not.

If you are comfortable with one of these options, I'll try to help you through whatever you need or don't understand. If you choose the stuff that involves flashing the device(s), I need to check some specifics about your device(s) before you do so and I need to be certain you understand how the flash/backup/restore process works in order to make sure that nothing gets messed up or lost/wiped during the process.
[General Questions and Answers] MarylinC:
Thank you so much Droidriven. The new phone arrived this morning and your idea of using smartswitch from my windiws PC did the trick.

I only had to touch once on the broken phone to trigger the backup to my PC which worked a treat. After that everything else was plain sailing and the new phone is all set up with all the data intact.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Good to go, glad to help.

I thought it might, I just wasn't sure about whether USB debugging was required by SmartSwitch, I have never needed to use SmartSwitch so I'm not familiar with its ins and outs.
[General Questions and Answers] MarylinC:
No, USB debugging isn't required on smartswitch.

My brother is like a kid with a new toy now that he has his phone back with all his stuff restored and working.

Thank you again.

Hello

I was able to update my SM-T320 from CM13 to CM14 by downloading CM14.1 (20192101) and the Gapps on the sd card...Everything went well

2 days ago, I saw an update available, and downloaded it

FROM

the tablet (Lineage OS CM14.1 from Jan 28,2019)

But now when I click in install, I'm not sure what to do next

It takes me to Recovery Mode, then I select "Apply update", and then my choices are:

-) Apply from ABD

-) Apply from Emulated

-) Apply from sdcard1

I don't know what to select, and I can't find the downloaded file in sdcard1

Thanks

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] French_guy:
How do I update TWRP? Should I just install the latest and greatest, or is there a specific procedure to follow?

And how do i know which version I have right now?

By the way, when I boot by pressing power + vol up, I get "Cyanogenmod recovery", with the following options:

-) Reboot system now

-) Apply update

-) Factory reset

-) Advanced

Does that mean I do not have TWRP installed at all?

Thanks

Yes. Replace CM recovery with latest twrp using fastboot/ Odin/heimdall.

How should I proceed?

Thanks
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] French_guy:
oK, so I google it and found how to install the latest TWRP for my tablet with Flashify

Apparently, everything went well..........

Now, I go back in Settings>About tablet>Lineage OS Updates

It says LineageOS 14.1 Jan 28,2019 and I have an "Install" button

So looks like I still have to do a manual Installation, which I did

And it worked...........

The only thing that still doesn't work is Netflix: i can login, browse, select a movie, but when I want to play it, i have the Netflix red screen and it keep saying "Loading" !!!

Thanks

I'm having tons of issues with the wifi.......when streaming from my server using VLC, i have disconnection every 5 minutes or so....................VERY PAINFUL !!!

Is this a well known issue? What is the fix then? Is there any specific adjustment to do somewhere, or install a specific driver (my wifi is strong, I'm using an Orbi mesh system)

Should I try to reinstall the latest and greatest version of the ROM?

thanks

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] superduper:
if you have 4 bars in 2G mode, then nothing is wrong with your reception level. 3G mode is completely different from 2G mode all together. having 2-3 bars in 3G mode is perfectly normal. 3G coverage is week in general. You have nothing to be concerned about really.

In my situation I was having 1-2 bars in 2G mode and 1-2 bars in 3G mode. (Polaris). Also, in 3G mode signal frequently was degrated to the level where radio would automatically fallback to 2G mode and stay there. We have practicaly entire HTC range at our disposal. Every single HTC phone that has been manufactured Himalaya inclusive. As soon as I have noticed week GSM signal on Polaris, I have checked few others for the same issue, namely:

Kaiser, Wings, Niki, Excalibur, Cavalier, Himalaya, Pharos, Hermes, Trinity, VOX, Herald and few others.

Also, please note: Kaiser, Wings, Niki and Polaris were running indentical radio: stock standard 1.58.21.23. we keep our handsets consistent accross the board as much as we can.

Kaiser, Niki and Wings produced excellent reception quality results with full 3-4 bars in 2G and 3+ bars in 3G mode.(UMTS 2100 and HSDPA).

I have tested on 3 GSM networks in total.

At the same time, Polaris demonstrated very concerning results in both 2G and 3G mode. (see above).

That is why I have decided to further investigate this issue.

After flashing Murata PPAS radio, Polaris receives 3-4 bars in GSM mode indoors, full 4 bars outdoors, 3 bars indoors and 3-4 bars outdoors. This is perfectly in line with other phones based on the same hardware platform: Kaiser, Niki and Wings.

I hope it helps.

P.S. At this stage I come to conclusion that there are Polaris handsets that have issue and others that have not. No matter what radio they being flashed to. This is perfectly possible if manufacturer replaced some electronic chip in newer batches of phones. This is common practice for mass production. Therefore we have conflicting reports in both polls.

bottom line is: if your Polaris has no issues with GSM reception after non-Murta radio upgrade, then it will likely to keep good reception level with any radio.

Murata radio seems to address the issue with support for specific chip only in handset and will not improve reception level for every single Polaris out there.

Please accept my appologies for such a long winded post. :)

No need for apologies :) well it gives me a better feeling that my Orbit2 is not really that bad, though I remember I had better reception in original state. Currently I'm trying to figure out why TomTom does not get any satellites. I have updated latest data with QuickGPS and chose Built-In GPS...

took about half an hour to get the initial first gps fix... but from then on, it gets the first fix within 3-5 seconds... nice

Ok here is my story... I bought a Cruise but the first thing I did was to unlock it (without testing it before!). So when I tried it I thought "what this piece of ****... the reception is so bad!!" but thought it was normal so I was already thinking about selling it on eBay :D Then I found this forum....

I've just flashed it with Radio_Murata_PPAS_1.58.21.23 and it works like a charm now, so thank you very much!

Murata radio is a life saver for wm6.1..awesome full 4 bars reception...highly recemmended for anyone have reception problems after updated their radio ..awesome :D
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] SecureGSM:
Just to clarify on this issue with low reception for some Polaris handsets:

Manufacturer has replaced some micro electronic components in some batches of Polaris.

Stock standard radio 1.58.21.23 and others has no support for those new components and therefore new handsets suffer low reception level issue.

1.58.21.23 radio Murata has support for new components included and maintains backward compatibility to earlier shipped handsets.

this radio will not affect ( improve or otherwise) reception quality for phones in older batches.

P.S. Radio is genuine.

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] shumilica:
Thank you for the great discovery. This Murata thing is working! I wanted to go with this device to the warranty, but i said to give this a shot, because my TC had the same simptoms discribed (only that i tested in GSM, i use 3g only for net).

Where i had signal between 70-80% (2-3 lines) now i have 100% (i use this percentage because i have batterystatus program that tells me in percentage). Where one hour ago my TC didn't discover any signal now it has 70% (2-3 lines).

I tested with dslreports.com/mspeed before and after:

GSM/GPRS: 29kbits before - 40kbits after

3g: 141kbits before - 200kbits after

My device information:

ROM VERSION: 1.25.405.1 WWE

ROM dare: 12/11/07

Radio Version: 1.58.21.23 (it writes the SAME version i had before, no murata no nothing)

Protocol version: 25.65.30.04W

I have to mention one thing: on my box (the box with the htc touch cruise in it), where it has the bar code, it writes Rev. A (from Revision A). I think maybe all devices with revision A will benefit from this radio and other revision not... please specify what it writes on your package.
