[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
It seems that the carrier change could of installed something or added some carrier settings from another carrier.

Somehow you would really need to make a 100% clean firmware flash, so the phone would forget all the changes that were made previously.

Now instead of doing factory reset from settings as you did, do it from the recovery menu by choosing "Wipe data/factory reset"

I tried one version of Odin, then when it didn't work, tried another one and so on. Odin may not make a difference, but the way you flash and firmware. In my case with Patched version I saw the change I needed. Other times, the regular Odin does the job :)

Another method(can try it as last resort)

Usually to get this, I would install a firmware that is completely from another country, for example: France(SFR-I think), UK(BTU), Germany(DBT), Russia(SER) - the firmware of course needs to be for your G975F model, after flashing to that country's firmware, you would then flash back to TPA that you need. Forgot to add that for this you may need the Patched version of Odin. Also make sure not to install fresher firmware from another country as you would have to wait until a new TPA firmware is available. I see that most firmware are ASE7, so get it(from the EU country of your choice)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
If I'm flashing the firmware from one of the EU countries, should I take out my sim and put it back in at the welcome screen, or flash the TPA immediately after it goes to the welcome screen and then put in the sim? I'll try that as a last resort after flashing between the EON and TPA a couple times later on tonight.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
So the idea here is to make your phone really forget all the tweaks or settings that were applied by the sim card you had previously. You can flash with your sim in and see what happens. After flashing on of the EU firmware, your phone will boot to welcome screen. I would suggest you skip through all the setup and go to home screen. Then check the SW version and make a note of it. Then put in the sim while still there. You may see some messages pop up at the bottom of the screen "sim refreshing" or something like that(your sim CSC may or may not be included in EU firmware) if phone is applying the settings. After putting the sim in, check the cell signal and go to network settings as well to see if your phone recognized the sim. Then restart the phone and check SW version screen again, to see what has changed. After that, flash TPA firmware(I would reset the phone from the recovery and remove the sim). Then IF you have to flash second time to TPA, do it with sim in.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
OK, I'll be trying in a short while, I'll get back to you and let you know how it goes and whether I encounter any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
Also, can you recommend a good firmware to flash for the EU, I'm seeing a lot of the carrier varients for them. I'm guessing I'd need an unlocked firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
For example BTU is the UK version, so you can try that. If you like to tray something from Spain, or Italy, you can do that too and yes, you need unlocked firmware and example I gave you about BTU is unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
I tried BTU & DBT, after flashing it still showed as TTT. I tried flashing them several times so far.

This was the DBT version: G975FXXU1ASE7/G975F

OXM

1ASE5/G975FXXU1ASE5/G975FXXU1ASE7

I'm flashing the TPA again right now, but it doesn't appear to be working.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
1) Which Odin have you used to flash?

2) Do you have another sim card that was in the phone previously? - Try flashing with that, even if it doesn't have service.

3) For example the other phone that gets updates which has TPA in the SW version. Did it also have a previous carriers sim card in it?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
I'm using the patched Odin.

Both devices were set up without sim cards inserted. I'm now about to flash it with the sim card in.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
I too, setup my unlocked S10e without sim card first, then my flashing journey to TMB began :) Basically I flashed few times and it was still not TMB. I then flashed the firmware XAA that my phone came with, then at the welcome screen put in T-Mobile sim card. Phone recognized it and told me to restart the device. Then the job was half way done. I then flashed TMB firmware and my phone became TMB in the SW version and TMB/TMB/XAA(mine is single sim unit)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
Flashing with the sim made no difference. On all attempts after flashing the phone still registers as TTT, even when inserting the sim after it doesn't prompt me to restart the device, only to select the sim. Not sure whether it being dual sim would matter. I've flashed multiple times so far the different firmware, being the DBT, BTU, EON, and TPA. I've done the factory reset from the menu, from the recovery, and even cleared the cache from there as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
It feels like you are flashing firmware, but it doesn't really flash it. At least this is what I thought when I couldn't make it happen for a few times.

Download app called "Phone Info - Samsung". This app will show CSC of the firmware and the active CSC as well.

Read the page from the screenshot(couldn't paste the link for some reason) and try dialing few codes as suggested on this page. Dialing: *#272*IMEI number# doesn't work on all firmware versions.

You can also get another sim card from a different carrier to force the phone to apply it, then you can put yours back
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
I've tried dialing the *#272* but it doesn't give me the option to change the csc, so I'm guessing it isn't a multi csc. I've tried a lot of those suggestions, the only option to change it would be to root the device and then change it, which I don't want to do. With Phone Info, the CSC shows TTT as well if I remember correctly, I'll run it again when the phone powers back on.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
So the only thing you can try is getting another sim card possibly from a person and this way, your phone will re-apply carrier settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
We only have two carriers in Trinidad, and I've tried both, so I guess for now I'm stuck with just flashing the updates.

The firmware CSC code is XEF and the active code is TTT. Should I try flashing the XEF without the sim and then flashing the TPA, and then insert the sim?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
Try the Phone Info app on the phone that gets updates and compare the info. If you can flash XEF, that will be good and see what the firmware looks before you flash to TPA
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
I don't have the other device on me at present, I'll have to check it tomorrow, I'll try flashing the XEF and see what happens.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
XEF seems to be France :) Right, you might as well flash to that XEF. I wonder how could it be, that TTT is the SW, the firmware is XEF and some parts of the firmware are TPA
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
Tried flashing the XEF and it still shows up as TTT, I feel as though it's not actually flashing the firmware, cause nothing changes.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
Flashed with sim or no sim?

If you flashed without Sim, did you try putting Sim at the welcome screen or when you are on the home screen?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
Flashed with the sim on this occasion, the other flashes were without the sim, and it doesn't prompt me to restart the phone after I insert the sim.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
Option 1: Wipe data in recovery, flash XEF (select regular CSC, not HOME) without the sim. After flash, let it restart and go to welcome screen. Skip through setup and go to home screen. Check for the SW ver. Then put sim in and see if anything is changing

Option 2: Is the same, except you put sim card in when phones gets to welcome screen
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Gdefreitas:
I wiped from both the settings and the recovery, even tried clearing the cache and then resetting again, I flashed the regular CSC on all the attempts as well. Even after trying the ones from all the different regions, it still showed as TTT, so when I inserted the sim at any point, it didn't prompt me to restart the device, it just had the menu to select the sim. I'm out of ideas as to what to flash again, because I've tried the XEF, BTU, SKR, EON, TPA and none have made any difference, it simply shows the same TTT SW version.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
Interesting.... I guess you can easily check your other phone using Phone Info app and compare the firmware CSC, Active CSC and Available CSC codes and see if any of them match your carrier's csc. Also try to locate another person who came from another country for a vacation and try their sim card on your phone. All you need for the sim to refresh the data. Once the data changes, then flashing with XEF or TPA and then putting your sim should do something.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] TorxT3D:
Ive had this phone since day one, and i can atest that after a past update the phone started overheating and shutting down when downloads write to the phone and the phone starts an update, it'll shut down in the middle of an update.

Then recently the phone overheats and shuts off when im recording video, and of course when im updating apps. I have to put the phone in the freezer or fridge just to keep it from shutting off in the middle of a crucial update.

I've come to the conclusion, either the phone cant handle the clocking up during tasks, or theres something with the storage chip. Anyone else having this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] iceepyon:
Have you tried wiping the cache partition in Recovery Mode? If that doesn't work then I would recommend that you backup your device and perform a hard factory reset. If that doesn't work then your device if faulty and needs to be repaired
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] TorxT3D:
I've done everything, reset, cache, odin reflash, wrote to sd cards instead, turned on/off power saving.... same thing, it overheats and shutdowns especially if its hot outside, i cant do anything with it.

just wondering if anyone else has had this issue, started happening after a system update a while back, found that kind of funny and convenient.

interested to try a custom rom, but dont know if i can even modify this latest firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] iceepyon:
Have you tried performing a Hard Factory reset on your device? If this happened after a recent OS update then that might solve your issue.

Hi there, Imma Newbie in here, not so advanced in techs and etc...

Couple of days Ago I did an update on my GOOGLE PIXEL of ANDROID 10 Beta, has lot of issues but part of them is already fixed and I kinda like it... Anyhow this post is about totally different thing

When I did my last update of Google CHROME on my GOOGLE PIXEL Cellphone which is working on ANDROID 10 BETA, all the videos that I am playing with the CHROME browser get STALLED when I try to REWIND / FORWARD them.

For Example : I go to one of the online movie website, I turn movie and if I want to rewind it it gets stalled...

By the same time any other browser (Firefox, Opera) play the same video without any kind of problems, thats why I think that the problem lays in CHROME

TRIED TO FIX

So I did the following procedures : cleared cache and cookies, search content, browsing history, storage and etc... Tried to installing the older version of CHROME and it didn't work as well cause in PIXEL it is BUILT IN application witch can not be downgraded... restarting the phone couple of times and etc. Nothing worked for me

Please try to be able to help me to resolve my Issue

Thank you in advance

P.S I also wrote a feedback in Google Store indicating the problem but no response yet...
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] scottfree1:
Magic earth, Google maps/|earth, Maps.me all find gps location quickly with no issues. But Waze and Sysgic (the 2 nav apps I prefer) cannot find/use gps location data, every time you open them they ask you to enable location services, and link to the setup page where everything is on and appears normal, toggling the settings has no effect, clearing data fall apps launcher/maps etc. no effect. GPS locator free finds my position no problem, GPS Satellite Stats says "gps disabled". Also clicking "maps setting" under applications leads nowhere? any ideas?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
There is no hardware GPS in 3rd/4th gen HDX devices unless equipped with the LTE chip which is rare (you'd know it). The mapping services that show your *approximate* location are likely using Google's fused location service which uses known AP coordinates to estimate actual device location. It works well if near a known AP; completely useless in areas with few/no APs (eg: rural navigation). Service also uses known cell tower locations but that's obviously irrelevant on a typical HDX.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] scottfree1:
Thanks, had an old hdx and though it could stay useful re-purposed as a gps :(

Any thoughts on external bluetooth/usb gps's?

I have tried bt tethering to my phone in hope of accessing it's gps but apparently the sharing of a dozen or so numbers between 2 devices is to difficult for me, or is it them? Either way it's NO GPS FOR ME!

If I can find a cheap GlobalSat usb I might do that, I'd hate to an Another obsolete device (gps) to my collection when I already have so many obsolete phones and tables that (in theory at least) should do the job .
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Not worth the effort given low cost alternatives. Several have tried including one guy who had a custom mount on his motorcycle is put in a full-fledged effort over several weeks. In the end he had to go with another device. Note you'd have to go the bluetooth route as HDX does not support OTG; usb port can only be used for charging and tethered communication.

Best attributes of this device are the crisp display, general responsiveness with a custom ROM and form factor for reading. Decent audio too. If you can work within that framework it makes a nice gizmo even by today's standards. Push it in another direction and things start to get ugly.

I bricked the first one of these I had hard, first time ever I could not recover from a f'd up flash. So it's been a while, but I seem to remember getting root but not getting any further with the bootloader being locked, and no way to install custom recovery twrp/cyanogen??
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Bootloader is now unlockable (has been for awhile); you can probably recover the "bricked" device if stuffed in a drawer somewhere. Battery deterioration is now the Achilles heel of these 2013-2014 vintage devices.

---------- Post added at 12:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------

Be aware 810 equipped HDXs are 4th gen models that are unlockable and stuck on FireOS v5 (some builds can be rooted, albeit unstable).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] scottfree1:
Well it was bricked so hard you got nothing, no fire logo, no recovery literally a brick. I asked the company I bought it from if they had any idea how to fix it? Sure we know how to fix it, we're liquidating and we've got dozens of these laying around, just send it back and we'll replace it, well that "un-bricked" it no problem.

I see there is a new guide posted "How to root and unlock the HDX for noobies" last time I tried it was piecemeal with multiple boot/root/rom guides bouncing you all over the place, and in a I know better brain fart moment I followed a "delete file x" instruction when I know "rename file x" probably would have saved my ass.

And btw I remember why bt gps sharing with my phone didn't work, the frickin fire will not connect to my LG G3 with a "sorry you bt is not compatible message". But I found a work around (sort of). Setup my LG as a wifi hotspot and using gps tether, connected the fire with gps tether's "wifi hotspot" and enabled "Wifi NMEA". This ends up with "Receiving location updates" in the notifications, this gets me half way with Sygic finding it but not Waze :(
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
There are two general approaches to unlocking a 3rd gen HDX bootloader (linked below). 1-Click is by far the easiest but requires a Linux or OSX host (Windows is not supported). The "noobie" thread is a nice complication of the 'manual' method complete with screen grabs and helpful guidance.
