i9506 does not start after flashing a custom ROM (worked before with cm 12.1)

Hi guys,

today i tried to flash another custom ROM. I had running a cm12.1 build to that point. However after successfully flashing ROM][16-08-15][GT-I9506][5.0.2][PORT] Darklord Galaxy S6 v3.0 for S4 using the latest philz recovery, my phone wont do much more than displaying the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo. I can boot into download mode or recovery. But the rom wont boot. Any help is appreciated. Not sure what infos you need, so plz just tell me if you need more info to help me.

thanks akku

Think twice before unlocking...

Online chats have said it does not void your warranty, but when you go to

Motorola.com --> My Stuff --> View My Stuff

It says that your warranty is voided, and I'll bet Motorola wouldn't hesitate to go by that when you have an issue. Wait until there's a clear cut answer, or unless you are 100% sure this is what you want to do...

Before i forget! (how to bypass and erase the new security in android 5.1.1 )

Sorry for my english, im very excited and i want to share this because i dont know exactly what i did.

Guys i found a way to pass the android security (gmail account), I dont remember all the steps because i spent hours and hours but the trick is :
1.- Recieve a call in the first screen
2.- Try to save that contact
3.- Choose an "exchange account" (add any - NO GMAIL-)
4.- Try to share that contact
5.- Choose the exchange account previously created
6.- It will be opened the gmail app
7.- There go to settings
8.- Choose "general configuration"
9.- Wala! General settings will be prompted
10.- Activate developer options and disable OEM UNLOCK
11.- Go to fastboot and type fastboot oem unlock
12.- Thats all!!!!!!!

Running Script on boot before user apps load ???

still on kitkat 4.4.4 here! :)

Hi guys im searching for a way to start a mount-script BEFORE my user apps load up on boot ?

I already got the install-recovery.sh method to work , but its not good , it loads after boot and after other apps have started.

Scriptmanager method is the same , runs after all other apps have started.

the problem i have is that right now im using the app "folder-mount"which is good for some folders like "dcim" BUT it also starts a good time(5 seconds) after the homescreen.

until then another app which i want to write its folder to the sdcard2 has started before it and has already written its new logfile to the internal emulated sdcard, the "foldermount" mounts afterwards and the app can´t see its own log anymore

this is a major suckage , so i search for a way to mount the folders BEFORE all my user apps load up !

please help me thanx !

Want to install latest stock rom before I dump sprint

I get horrible signal all over the San Francisco area. Inside my home half the time I can't even make a call. Before I just give up on Sprint I thought I'd try installing the latest stock rom and whatever updates it has and see if that helps.

Can anyone tell me where I can find the latest ota update for the Sprint note 4? Would prefer to keep it rooted.

And if anyone has any other suggestions to improve the signal on the phone, I'm all ears.

Thanks

Why in the hell is T-Mobile getting a Stagefright patch before vanilla h815?

I just dont get it. The device manufacturers always want to blame the carriers for patch delays. So here I am sitting on my international H815(eu) figuring since this is a broad scope device it will get the update before the carriers specific devices. Then today I see T-Mobile's model is getting a stagefright update. WTH?!!? Anyone got any good insight on whats going on here?

How long you guys think before we have a flashable Android 5.1.1 Zip for N910F?

Since Android 5.1.1 is already out for N910F how long do you guys think before we see a flashable Zip with root from one of the devs?

I haven't seen anybody even mention anything about this so hence thought I might as well ask the question.

I know we can flash using Odin etc but it is a very cumbersome and confusing process especially with all the different BL, AP, CP CSC files for the different models.

Sorry if it is a stupid question

Bootloader unlocked and tampered flags set to true even after flash; unlocked before

When I got my OPO, cm 11s, I unlocked the bootloader and rooted. In preperation for 12.1, I flashed the cos 12 factory image and basically left it, waiting for 12.1. Today I installed 12.1 using the stock cyanogen recovery, and then wanted to root it. (all drivers are set up properly) I tried fastboot oem unlock but nothing happened, phone didn't get wiped; it just said task finished, 0.0 seconds. Then I did fastboot oem device-info and it returned "Device tampered: true" and "Device unlocked: true". So it thinks the bootloader is unlocked, even though it's not. And so the oem unlock command doesn't work. How can I reset the flags?

Things to do before repairing (ROM, backups)

Hi,

my GPS stopped working so will have to send it to Sony to get it repaired.
Now I rooted the phone and installed the debloated 5.1.1 ROM.

Is it necessary to install the original firmware for warranty reasons?
And if so, how do to it most easily?
And is there a way to once getting it back I can easily obtain my current ROM with all APPS again?
I did a TWRP backup, and Titanium Backup of all apps, but I fear I will have to redo all the steps of the rooting procedure right?
Or given it's based on Sony's rom you think I can send it in as is?

THanks!

Things to consider before rooting

Hi
I have a G925I (indian version) and i am contemplating rooting my device


Is there anything I should be worried about except knox trip. , Fingerprint scanner works after root?

I have rooted all my phones and the best performance only comes from custom roms.

My phone on stock rom gives me terrible battery life and runs hot on normal usage. Have factory resetted twice but nothing changes.

I have attached a screenshot mentioning the build my phone is running.

Thanks in advance!!
