Our XDA Thread is closed for funny reasons. Someone claimed rights about PNG files from Samsung based ROMS. What a bad thing we did uh! We spending hundreds of dollars, and unlimited time for this special project. We don't care about a few stupid PNG files. We are amazed how XDA staff did this mistake. Whatever.

"hundreds of dollars" - hehehe lies, plain bull**** all they do is COLLECT $ from ads and downloads
"unlimited time" - unlimited time to copy paste from others work ??? moving from one firmware to another is not taking much for one person, for couple of them even more
and well giving credits when taking someone elses work should be obligatory so either they constantly refused to give it or the reasons are other than they say
anyways i will wait with releasing stock+ untill those pro's will release thir version to do not get a copy pasted by those pros

They're still devs trying to produce good roms for the I9000 community. Shaming them shouldn't be allowed, because they're still providing something good and are actively contributing to our device. There are people in these forums such as @darkknigh_t and myself who appreciate their work and for providing stable and fast roms for the community.
Respect their work and what they do, shaming and disregarding their work is just low.

They ran into some accusations over some .png files they used for the camera, which were the stock SGS4 images. Someone else claimed that the camera pngs were theirs. They didn't know that it was someone else's. It couldn't be sorted so the links for version 3.0 were taken down.

and it is not a rare here on xda that someone takes others work and 'forgets' to credit - maybe the png was not the only problm with gamerz - idk

Yet another S6 Active (G890A) Root Thread

According to my search on this forum, it's been at least two months since root of Galaxy S6 Active was mentioned last, so I thought I'll try again...
I am trying to figure out if there is a way to root the phone now? I tried KingoRoot, Towel Root, PingPong, King and nothing worked...
Would the phone get bricked if I try the rooting via Odin using the files for the regular S6 (G920)?
Is it possible to just flash CyanogenMod and thus get both the rom and root that way?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Subbed, I would also like to know

Is upping a thread a thing on this forum?

Great question! We don't want to brick our new Galaxy S6 Actives either!!!

Want rooooooooooot

Far as I know, there has been no news regarding root for S6 Active.
There is a group of people trying to put together a bounty for a S6 Active root, but the problem is nobody is really sure how to properly setup the bounty

Yet another thing that confuses me....why is the edge and active so different from the normal 6. Why would there be any reason for the internals to be changed besides maybe moving some stuff around so it fits right. I am so happy I decided not to get the active even though I learned today that it has 1000 more mAh than the normal/edge which if I would've known that at purchase I would of gotten it... I feel your pain guys. It is even worse that it is an ATT Active of all things, :/

Agree! Android really is different without root.
I have had my G890A (S6 Active) for just over a month.
This is the longest I've ever had a non-rooted Android phone since my first HTC many years back. It's frustrating!
The phone's nice. It's got the bigger battery, a bit tougher, and not too large (but I *am* tired of "demo'ing" the phone-in-a -glass-of-water trick for friends already .
I like the promise of durability, but chaff at lack of root, and the personal tweaks that I took for granted on my S4, my S2 and other rooted android phones. . .
;-(

Well I think one of the question is whether it is actually any different from the normal 6 from the root perspective? Has anyone tried to use 6 firmware on it?

I'm in the same boat. I got a good deal on Swappa for this phone and love the hardware. I'd love root to remove bloatware, install xposed modules and remove ads. This phone has huge potential but falls short.

Might have figured out a way please PM to skype IMPORTANT!

Hypothetical question.....

I have been seeing posts recently of someone sending in their Nexus 5X for repairs, and getting more RAM in the phone. Hypothetically speaking, would it be possible to take the Samsung Galaxy s8's screen, and put it on the Nexus 6 ? How difficult would that be ?

Ram and emmc chips are one thing... The panel of s8 would require a whole new redo of kernel with drivers to support it. Not only that they don't match hardware and ribbon cable wise. Not only that Nexus 6 is very close to end of life so doubt anyone would even do it even if it were possible.

You know, of course, that "Senior Member" is a meaningless title since you only have to post 100 comments to "earn" it In any case, many people don't understand how the hardware works, they only barely know how to unlock the bootloader on a Nexus and flash TWRP and a custom ROM. By the time one would be done doing all the hardware and software modding he'd need to fit a Galaxy S8 screen on the Nexus it'd be more worthwhile to just get the S8

Let's put it this way: it'd actually be easier to get a Galaxy S8, learn from scratch (as in with zero coding experience) how to break Samsung’s Knox and related security features, forcibly bypass any bootloader locks present and port a custom recovery like TWRP than it would be to make a S8 display work on a Nexus 6

But it still comes in black right?

Would a Toyota Camry windshield fit on a Dodge Charger?

Hahaha......Okay okay......*face palm* I had a feeling this is the response I would get. Honestly, I have been a member of XDA for years. And as one of you already pointed out, I'm one of those "senior members" that has learned how to root, install a custom recovery​ and a few other things. I posted this, because I really have no idea how some hardware works on phones compared to computers. I have worked on laptops and desktops for years, and some of the hardware in laptops is interchangeable, and others, is not. But hey, at least I made a few of you laugh, right ?

Samsung likes to release so many variants of one device that even swapping a screen from one model(TMO) to a model(VRZ) may have a ribbon issue. I have always been partial to the _Samsung Round_ screen but, i am not THAT partial. I have gotten mics.,loud and ear speakers to "line up" and "fit" as a way of replacement or out of pure curiosity.

First full review, check it out...

Is it possible to rename thread, all the reviews, or something like that. ? Be nice to have all the reviews in one thread.

Believe me or not at some extent I don't believe on all what said on review website after all this is all business and not charity people, many website are getting huge amount of money from company to make other company's product (or their own product) look better or worst, small issue they can make it big or small. it's up to you to what extend you believe on them
But for sure I not paid by anyone nor a reviewer, I am having Galaxy S7 and Sony A6000 DSLR camera with 30mm Sigma F1.6 lens so as soon as I get my OP5 I will publish pics from all my devices for you to compare.

I am still waiting DxO mark to say something about OP5, but I don't think OP5 will be in top 5 slot, without OIS and small pixel size sensor

You know what man, you're out of line and I'm going to give you some advice. This type of attitude is not what this site is for. Keep scrolling if it bothers you so much. No rules have been broken. Before you try to police threads for no reason you should re-read the rules yourself.
If this is the type of thing that you plan on bringing to the table with regularity you may not be around long out here, nor will anyone offer support for when you need it. And one day you will. We all do, myself included. So you may wish to consider being nice to people so you don't get a bad rep for being "that guy" that no one wishes to deal with. Trust me that's not a fun place to be. No one wants to be that guy.
Remember this is a fun hobby we all share so there's no need to spoil things and take the fun out of this for people when they've done nothing wrong. He's made a thread in a relatively inactive section regarding something he felt like sharing that he found helpful. There's no harm in that at all. It's kind of the backbones of the site if you think about it.
