What I really want is a holster!

Hopefully Seidio comes out with their line of Diamond products soon.

Until then, I'll stick with my Case Logic...

That one is quite expensive compared to this:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] Ximoon:
Same here, bought the Diamond in July, and after four months in my pocket (not hard bitten in any way), the pouch is cracking on the corners... Not too bad yet, but it won't last centuries, so I advise to think twice before buying that one. Too bad, it was exactly the type of pouch I was looking for, and I found none (yet) so thin, complete, and nice to my taste. Still looking.

Case for US Diamond

I picked up a "Body Glove" for my Diamond that has the slightly thicker battery (US unlocked) from a local mall Kiosk (Verizon, I think). The phone fits nicely in this case with a mag catch and swivel belt clip.

It's the "Rally Universal" model.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] colonel:
seems such a waste getting this expensive device and then buying a cheap case not made for it.

I find thats its always worth paying for something well made, for convenience, protection and ownership satisfaction.

Noreve, Proporta and Piel Frama are the best, but very expensive (proporta is slightly cheaper).

If you want quality on the cheap, you can't go wrong with PDair. Very nice cases in aluminium or leather and flip or book.

I always buy PDair cases on ebay. The diamond flip leather one I bought for £10.99.

I'm looking for a case for carrying my (European) Diamond on my upper arm. My arms are on the skinny side, so the arm band needs to be fairly adjustable. I've seen some on Ebay, but I'd like to have some other suggestions, please. :)

Thanks for the link. I lost the original HTC case so have just ordered one of the Beyza cases as they look very nice. I found a seller on ebay with them at a more reasonable price in the UK.

Trying to return previously rooted SM-T713 to stock. Downloaded the original ROM T713XXU1APD9_T713XAR1APD9_HOME.tar.md5 from here

https://xdaforums.com/tab-s2/development/stock-official-t713-stock-firmware-t3392404

Also got Odin v3.10.7, and latest USB driver from Samsung. Device is correctly recognized on COM3. Per various instructions on web I load the .md5 file in the AP section of Odin and hit "Start". The process goes through mostly smoothly but fails at the very end

The device screen reads

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
Update: while investigating the "FAIL! (Auth)" part of the message I read that Sammy does not let you install firmware that is older than the original firmware on the pad. So I tried XAR-T713XXU2BSA1-20190314170324 instead and it worked, but not the tab gets suck at the pulsating Sammy logo. The recommendation is to reboot to recovery and do a wipe/factory reset but I can't seem to get either the power button alone, or home + power + volume up to work. The only thing that seems to work is Power + home + volume down to get to fastboot. Argh!

After the firmware is flashed the Android logo and blue screen come up, it says "installing system update", gets to about 12%, then "erasing..." for a few seconds, then reboots to system, and gets stuck on the pulsating Samsung logo. Suggestions? I have tried re-flashing several times, and it is always the same song and dance.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
Have tired half a dozen ROMs from various sources: XAR-T713XXU2APK6-20170109153313, SM-T713_1_20180216210827_n6ema2bn6h, XAR-T713XXU2BSA1-20190314170324, T713XXU2APJ1_T713XAR2APJ1_XAR, XAR-T713XXU1APD9-20160510111333. With the exception of the latter they all flash with Odin without issues but then the device goes into a bootloop. An initial blue screen appears that says "Installing system update", but that gets only till about 35% after which it switches to message "erasing" and the tab goes into a reboot only to get stuck on the pulsating "Samsung" screen. I have tried erasing NAND, flashing TWRN, and what not, to no avail. I can't get into recovery and the power button does not work either. Would be grateful any suggestions, otherwise this is going to the ewaste bin.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sliding_billy:
The one I used the last few times I needed returned to stock has the same date as one of yours (20180206) but a different name both in the original XAR zip (XAR-T713XXU2BRB2_T713XAR2BRB2-20180206) and the extracted .tar (T713XXU2BRB2_T713XAR2BRB2_HOME.tar). I do not remember what site I got it from, but it took about a half day to download.. That was probably about a year ago. If you have somewhere that I can upload it to, I can put a copy of one or both there. Otherwise, you can at least search Google by name of a known working file.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
Thanks, I found the file on samsung-firmware.org. Says it will take 3 hrs to download. At this point I am not too hopeful, but will give it a go. Thank you for the tip!

P.S. For completeness sake, the link to this file is https://samsung-firmware.org/download/GALAXY__Tab__S2__/45bx/XAR/T713XXU2BRB2/T713XAR2BRB2/
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sliding_billy:
Good luck.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GroovyGeek:
Alas the behavior of this known good ROM is identical to every other one I have tried - the system update proceeds till about the 35% mark, then it switches to a message "Erasing" after which the tab reboots and gets stuck on the pulsating Samsung logo. I guess it is going to the ewaste bin.

Edit: finally successful in getting past the Samsung logo. Per instructions from another thread got into recovery, wiped data and cache. That did not resolve the issue on the first try, but after a couple of cycles of flashing firmware and wiping data + cache things all of a sudden started working. Not sure why or how.

One important note that is far from clear online is the process of getting into recovery. It often stated as "press home /vol up/power" which does NOT work. The correct process is

1) press vol dn / power /home

2) as soon as the screen goes black release vol dn and press vol up while continuing to hold the other two buttons

So there is no clean way of downgrading from Nugot 7.0 to Marshmellow 6.0?
[Magisk] darkensx:
Hi not sure if this is the right place for this.... i have a Samsung SM-G9650 semi-stock magisk rooted with kilabit's kernel hence "semi stock" running Pie... unfortunately my phone doesnt feel like playing nice out of box with verizon based straight talk sim and in my area *Cough* N.H. North Country *Cough* at&t barely works signal wise and t-mobile is non existent as far as MVNO goes anyway... getting to the point :laugh:

My phone wont connect Data to 4gLTE but will connect to 3g (affects Data only calls,mms,sms work fine) I was told by a few people it possibly a APN issue but for some odd reason my phone refuses to save the new apn i create it lets me click save but it never shows in the apn list.... now the question is it possible to edit apns-config.xml in /system/etc without messing up magisk or whatever negative thing happens if system gets modified as /system/etc appears to be mounted already as rw also would an adb pull then edit the file then push back be less risky?

P.S. If this is in the wrong section would an admin kindly move to the most relevant section thanks.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
You might be seeing /system/etc as rw since you already have a Magisk module that's mounting files to it (systemless hosts would be my first guess). That could also explain why the app is having issues trying to add a new APN (because of the magic mask).

Your best bet might be to create and use a Magisk module.
[Magisk] darkensx:
Hmm.. if that requires any programming or coding knowledge im S.O.L. lol i have little to none of it on Android or anything really.. im actually kinda surprised there is not a module already to handle editing apns incase of something like this if it was a possibility to begin with..
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] iamMG:
Hi all, I have been facing a really weird problem for the past few weeks. Sometimes all of a sudden, my phone screen completely turns black, and the buttons (as well as the alert slider) stop responding. There is no indication whatsoever that it is NOT switched off. However when I try calling it from another phone, ring can be heard as if my phone is working fine. I don't understand where the problem lies. Any suggestions are welcome.

I am rooted with Magisk 19.3, Riru-EdXposed 0.4.5.1 Sandhook, Riru-Core v19.5.

Edit: Android Pie. OOS 9.5.10.GM21AA

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] NighthawkXL:
Same problem here when opening quite a few apps. Issue didn't start until I updated to Android 10 (and rooted), on a converted T-Mobile variant. Wonder if that is the source of our problem. I'm sorely tempted to use the MSM tool and go back on TMO's Android 9 (and pray for a official update to 10). Unless someone can find a solution to this, rebooting the phone every time I want to open certain apps is a real pain.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mookiexl:
It definitely is a A10 issue as I too have started to have this issue when opening games and ram extensive apps. A workaround is to open the game or app in split screen mode and once the app has started you can switch back to fullscreen mode or start the app from recents. That has worked for me 100% of the time. The 10.0.1 update seemed to make it worse because you have to reboot the phone to escape the black screen were as at first you could use gestures to escape the app.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] NighthawkXL:
Good idea using split screen, I'll have to start doing that for the time being. I moved over to Open Beta 3 and the issue is still there and worst as with 10.0.1. Hopefully OnePlus can nail this bug soon. It's turning a otherwise amazing phone into a headache.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Spec-R:
I have the same problem. Running 10.0 rooted. For me, this has only happened when opening Youtube Vanced. One clever solution is to enable "Quickly turn on camera" and doublepress power if this happens. This launches camera and returns the screen to normal.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] cantenna:
Experiencing this too, it does seem to be related to certain .apks, how bizarre is that? Really don't want to re-flash as I am encrypted... Can you dirty-flash with an encrypted system and not loose any data?

I reflashed through TWRP and all data was fine. I'm encrypted too.

Hello

I need to use my Galaxy J510F with the Dexcom G5 Mobile app (it's for connecting diabetic sensors via Bluetooth).

The problem is that Dexcom only supports Samsung J5 [SM-A530 Model Only] (Android 8.1.0)...

I can install the app on my phone but I get a message that it cannot run because it's not supported in this phone model.

I want to ask if there is something to do, to fool the app that this is the compatible model, or maybe flash it to another version...

FAQs

I'm getting the "The current image (boot/recovery) have been destroyed and can not boot. Please flash the correct image or contact customer service to fix it." Error, what should I do now?

Flash the vbmeta using this command :

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

I'm getting the "Invalid sparse file format at header magic" Error, does that mean that the images are corrupt?

No! Just ignore the error, if you get the "Finished" message it means that the image has been flashed without any issues.

Can I cross-flash images?(CN -> IN & vice versa)

Some users have reported that the images can't be flashed due to different partition sizes, proceed at your own risk!
