I recently got this issue when rebooting I get this message saying "Android is upgrading Starting apps" I flashed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/development/rom-xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-0-t3094423
What it could be? anyone??

The ROM you flashed was described by the dev as for the G920F/l single SIM. What is the model no of your S6?

I don't know how but I was able somehow revert back to my stock rom and get rid of this problem.
I have SM-G920F

On S5 this happened when you flashed modded SMS application, generally it happens on deodexed ROMs. It is only annoing but no really issue.

So wait, are you saying I had this issue only because I flashed deodexed rom, is this normal for those kinds of roms?

Only some applications do it, I had this experience with modded SMS - disabled SMS to MMS conversion.

I looked up the problem and some people bypassed it by swipping up from the bottom(sounds werid I think they might mean the status bar) and going to settings enabling WiFi will bypass it.
Edit: oh your on stock right now,vi think it might be a bad flash otherwise you need to ask your tablets official forum, this looks like a problem only they can fix if its on stock. Sorry for the misread.

[Q] Rollback to Kitkat 4.4.4 from Lollipop?

I've updated my Note Edge (italian, 100% stock) to Lollipop few days ago, but i really don't like it, i think it's the worst android version i ever used (i hate, a lot, how the lockscreen works now).
Is there any safe (and maybe easy) way to reinstall Kitkat 4.4.4?
i've found this guide searching with Google:
http://androidsigma.com/how-to-downgrade-samsung-note-edge-from-android-lollipop-to-kitkat/
is it ok?
thanks in advance

I did it just the way the guide says, download your official Rom for you phone from sammobile, then use odin, its pretty straight forward, if you get into a bootloop, just wipe cache and it should boot.

you did the downgrade starting from an original Lollipop rom?
because my phone is non-rooted and 100% stock now, with the Lollipop rom that i received via KIES update.

I have the SM-N915T the version from tmobile, but when i bought it from a third party (brand new and unlocked) it did not come with the tmobile rom, it was the one from trinidad and tobago kitkat 4.4.4)
so i downloaded the lollipop Rom for Tmobile, and it worked fine, but i did not like all the bloatware from Tmobile so i decided to go back to kitkat, so i downloaded the kitkat version i had before, downloaded it from sammobile
checked usb debugging in developers settings, then put the phone in download mode, opened odin, click on PDA and selected the kitkat rom i had downloaded from sammobile, everything went fine, after everything completed, remember to wait for the PASS message fro odin, do not disconnect the phone unless it says PASS, after that the phone just boot looped, samsung logo, then samsung logo. So i booted to recovery and cleared cache, after that the phone booted just fine. So basically that is what i did, no problems at all, just make sure you download the Rom for yous specific Edge Model.
i've succesfully downgraded my phone
after the flash with Odin the phone was bootlooping, but with a full wipe (data and cache) everything was ok
now i've disabled automatic firware updates and i'll stick to KK 4.4.4 till Google new updates to Lollipop and the awful head-ups notification system.
thank you very much!

Hi,
I am having bootloop issue even after I clear with cache and dalvik from the recovery. I flashed with ODIN(N915GXXU1ANK4_N915GOLB1ANK4_MM1.zip) from Lollipop 5.0.1 as mine is Singapore unit. Anyone care to share their experience on how to recover from this.....

This is how i did from lollipop rollback to kitkat CWM > wipe data/factory reset > wipe cache partition > advance > wipe dalvik cache > turn off phone go to download mode > odin start to flash kitkat (SM-N915G Singapore)
The way I recovered this is factory reset instead of clearing the cache. Now running Kit Kat and very much happier...

Thanks for the suggestion. It worked as I went from Lollipop to Kit Kat. Much happier, especially considering the camera button on the edge panel for both selfie and normal mode. makes life a whole lot easier
I have a Verizon edge but everytime I try to flash back to kitkat with odin, it says it fails. I've tried 2 different files but neither seem to work. Are there any other methods or any other place to get the file from other than sammobile? Lollipop has killed my love for this phone. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Who knows.

If you know the baseband number of the verizon 4.4.4 Stock ROM, my T Mobile one is N915TUVU1ANK3, you can search for it on https://www.androidfilehost.com/
Downloads much faster with none of that stupid gimmicky pricing.
This phone really shines on Kit Kat. if only Samsung put just a little more effort in maintaining the features of Kit Kat on Lollipop. I really do like the face lift of Lollipop but I'll take the ergonomic Kit Kat that takes full advantage of the Edge any day.
hi guys, im using note edge, sprint N915P, with 5.1.1 but my fingerprint have problem. I would like to downgrade to 4.4.4, is that ok or any suggestion i need to pay attention? I heard that the phone will be null, lost imei if we try to downgrade, is that real? Thanks all

Never heard the IMEI thing before. Doesn't even make sense to me. Just download the stock 4.4.4 ROM for sprint via Odin.

Yeah I got the same error message attempting to move from the firmware for SM-N915P (5.1.1.) to SM-N915FY(5.0.1.) though I've seen a few people talk about the fact that you can't go backwards now.

If root can even be obtained this might be an option, otherwise your probably out of luck

Root has been obtained @ShapesBlue
Nobody has created a ROM for i535PP users yet(the i535 roms run but no wifi/data). And you're correct about having to use safestrap to flash it.If you're comfortable with a bash terminal you can try using one of the various tools found around here to modify the stock rom. If you're not then I'll see what I can do this weekend and try to get something for us i535pp users (after a day or so of testing)

Flashing via safestrap appears to work fine on my i535pp. The only issue I ran into was wifi not working with roms meant for the i535. And sorry for you having to receive an email for that.

Its cool. Good to see safestrap works on the prepaid version also

I'm not sure what a bash terminal is unless it's the same thing as the terminal emulator. I tried using that rom that's called paulpizz or something like that. I used some other rom to. The paulpizz one always failed to install even after downloading it a third time. The other one i can't remember the name but it installed but wouldn't start at all. It would just go black and bootloop and goes into stock recovery for some reason. I came across the nf5 module when i found that paulpizz rom on the goo server they hosted it on. So i got the module and i figured if i were to flash the module over the i535 rom that it would fix the wifi an data problem but never got an answer because it always failed to start up properly and would just bootloop into stock recovery. Ugh Verizon is making things so difficult with modding lol. As of now I'm just using xposed to get at least some theming in and tweaks. I couldn't get any deodex program to work. Whenever i used the deodex files and pushed them to the system of apps and framework, it would restart and just stick on the Verizon logo. So i had to flash the firmware to fix the problem.
When i was on 4.3 with this phone safestrap worked and i got the wifi and data sim error. Now that i got it replaced I'm running the kernel of July 22 2014. Everyone was saying I'm out of luck but i came across kingroot and got the most recent version and it worked. I have root. Installed safestrap for 4.4 and it runs fine but can't get any custom roms to boot. I only managed to find one 4.4 touchwiz rom unfortunately

If you're going to try flashing an i535 rom and then the i535pp modules let me know how that goes, can't test as I won't be able to do anything till the weekend. If that's the case then there's no need for roms for the pre paid version. Cyanogenmod was also bootable but very buggy.

I'll let you know how it goes and thank you. How is it that you were able to boot CM? From my understanding being that the bootloader is locked and has Knox for extra security to make the unlocking like impossible. But a genius came up with safestrap so we are able to use some custom roms but the down side is that it has to be the same Android OS and has to be a touchwiz based rom. So how are you getting lucky with all this? I love CM and I'd pick CM over any custom rom any day but i gave up an lost hope of ever getting CM because of the locked bootloader

Safestrap 3.75 had support for AOSP roms (wifi/data didn't work for them either) and 4.0 dropped support for that (there is currently no point). Read the thread for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2797314
Ok i wasn't using safestrap 4.0. I had 3.75 B05 which i thought was the latest version they had. I'm updated to 4.0 now and about to test the modules on the superlite rom
Update: i have tried the super lite rom using safestrap. The boot animation won't work during start up. When it gets to the welcome screen it freezes. It still does it even without applying the nf5 module. It freezes and will keep popping up that system isn't responding. System just keeps freezing and prompting me to wait or force close. So not sure why my s3 has a problem running it but yours don't

I'm running the stock prepaid rom, not superlightrom, sorry if there's any confusion there.
When I tried out superlightrom (quite some time ago) it appeared to work fine (excluding wifi/data and nagging about no SIM card being inserted, nothing like what you're describing) and I went back to stock.
Oh ok. Well it seems that the prepaid version or the s3 in general is dead. That's unfortunate

There is a few things u can do. Custom ROM and Kernel and recovery. Which I prefer to do. If you just want to remove the bloat download titanium backup

https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/development/alexis-rom-1-0-feel-game-sound-01-04-t3349944
Just tried the Alexis Rom and same thing.. stuck on boot. I reinstalled Alliance hoping for diffrent results.. can text message but no audio during a calls.. ugh! Back to stock again lol..
Provider - Telus
S6 920w8
Stock Android version - 5.0.2
Stock Kernal 3.10.61-4808800
I am using TWRP v2.8.6.0 and am wondering if the version or kernal may have anything to do with getting stuck on boot with almost every ROM i've tried to install..
My procedure when installing a custom ROM is to do a factory reset from TWRP (i dont do data or format because there is no sd card slot to store my rom or backup image), install ROM, clear cache/divik, reboot to system.
Any Ideas??

Reflash any ROM giving you sound issues and then flash either hacker kernel or arter kernel as they are the only two compatible as far as I know. Once you have flashed arter kernel and then rebooted your phone. Reboot your phone back into recovery once more and then flash this https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4Gyz91x5k7gc2NBS2N5TFQwY0k/view?usp=drivesdk it is the call audio fix for our devices (925T / 925W8)
(920T / 920W8)
Just make sure you DO NOT FLASH THIS BEFORE DEVICE REBOOT AFTER FLASHING CUSTOM KERNEL. Or you will get into a bootloop and say this doesn't work. (Your system needs to build with kernel settings first)
Here's a step by step I hope helps.
1. Flash custom ROM
2. Flash custom kernel
3. REBOOT
4. Set up ROM.
5. Reboot into recovery.
6. Flash call fix.
7. REBOOT
8. Profit.
Hope it helps you and welcome to making your phone truly yours.

Another reason why you are not booting is because you are on 5.0.1
You will have to update the bootloader to MM 6.0 first in order to use 6.0 custom ROMs this can be achieved by flashing any of our latest Canadian firmwares. (Does not matter what company if you are changing FW after.)
ALSO you can use the advanced wipe settings on TWRP to wipe everything but 'internal storage' that is where the ROM is downloaded.
I had alot of issues installing custom ROM's.. so i decided to upgrade and install OEM marshmallow 6.0.1 then re-root my phone. It worked.. I'm running Griffin ROM atm but will play around with other roms now that i have a good idea of where i went wrong.

I do not. However I always have mobile data running, maybe toggle yours and see if it sends. Some of the new ROMS have incorporated a tweak that auto toggles data to recieve pictures and send them. Griffin AFAIK does not have this tweak yet so when sending MMS you need to manually turn mobile data on and off.

Constant reboots / freezes following OTA update to G920FXXU3DPDP

Hi. My Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) got an OTA firmware update to G920FXXU3DPDP the other day, since when it constantly freezes or reboots within a few minutes of booting up. This even happens if I boot into safe mode.
The handset is running the stock ROM, not modded in any way.
Before I take it to the local Samsung Support Centre, could I ask:
1. Is anyone else having the same problems? I'm not finding much when searching the web.
2. Is there a way of downgrading the firmware without having to reset (and then re-setup from scratch) the handset? I've got a copy of the previous firmware (G920FXXU3DPBG) from sammobile.
Cheers.

Hi C.C.
This S6Edge report seems very similar to yours.
He successfully was able to make a backup.

Not that I know, in special, as it seems, you are not rooted neither has a custom recovery.
Nice regards.
