Did N915F works well for AT&T network?

I want to buy this model to replace my iphone6 plus on AT&T LTE network

But does this model works well on AT&T LTE network?

What VPN if any works well with the Amazon Fire Stick?

Is it possible to add a working VPN on the firestick? I was going to try IPvanish for a month until I noticed that once you sign up and pay for that month you are tied in for a longer period and funds auto deducted. I just want a pay as you go sort of thing if it's not free of course.

I want to be able to use all my addons on Kodi not just a few due to the ip limitations. :good:

Odin flash didn't end well, can't flash :(

My phone came from CPW in the UK. Generic unbranded ROM version:

So I downloaded an O2 specific (my network) from Sammobile as below:

I turned on OEM unlock in Dev options and started upgrading via Odin 3.10.6. It failed and soft bricked not suprisingly. Got it all back and working using Samsung smart switches emergency recovery.

Can't see why it'd fail, it's stock firmware. Anyone had success in flashing via Odin? I tried again with Odin 3.09 but now it won't flash at all.

Any ideas?

Note 5 charger doesn't work well with Tab S

I have both the Note 5 and the Tab S 10.5. I usually keep the Note's charger in the living room and use it for either the Tab S or the Note if I need quick top off. The Tab S' charger is upstairs for overnight charging. With the Note 4's charger (my previous phone) both devices charged fine. I've noticed that since switching to the Note 5, its charger does not charge the Tab S very well. With screen on it actually looses % rather than gains it and with the screen off charging is extremely slow. Using it's own charger the Tab S charges at its normal rate. The Note 5 also quick charges fine on its own charger.

Just an odd thing I thought I would mention. Has anyone else tried using the Note 5's charger on a different device?

GPS stopped working well after Root & TopNTP

Hey everyone. I have and SM-N9005 on lollipop 5.0 build number LRX21V.N9005XXUGBOB6.

Now i rooted the phone and decided to see if I could get my gps to lock on faster with TopNTP app.
I think that after that my gps has had problems. It locks on really badly, or barely locks on to any satellites, doesn't know where i am with any precision.
When I use it for driving directions it doesn't follow me any more and only manages to update every 10 seconds or so catching up to where i am or even never managing to get a good position.

Now... What have I tried:
- Downloaded GPS Status, tried downloading AGPS data
- Reset TOPNTP to backup of original gps settings
- Reset through *#9009# of gps
- Even opened up the back of the phone to check that the cables were attached (they were) and lifted up the pins that attach the motherboard to the antennae just a little so that the connection would be stronger...

But nothing. It seems to get worse every day.

Is it something i f'd up with TopNTP? Is it the root? Is my hardware failing?
CAn anyone lend a hand?
Thanks in advance
