Hey Guys, I'm having to RMA my first Nexus 6P because the bluetooth and wireless modules seem to be malfunctioning. I've already got the new device, but using the built in "Set up nearby device" crashes on both phones at the password entry portion. I've set up the new phone without an account...

Is there any way to unlock/root without losing all data on the device? I have a warranty replacement but my defective phone won't do the Sync to a new phone and I can't pull all the data for my apps because I'm not rooted.

Soft-Bricked Phone with important data - Any way to dump the onboard storage / data before doing the factory reset? I know I used to be able to get an ADB shell when working in either the download or recovery, but that way before the locked bootloader. Is there any way to try to dump the data...

Any way to restore just recovery? I made the mistake of trying to push TWRM because I thought I was on my unlocked phone. I think it can be fixed by flashing the default recovery back, but I don't want to do a back to factory and lose the data on the phone. Does anyone have a pre-made just the...

I notice you never took the time to read my initial post. I don't want stock. I'm looking for the 4.3 OS stock or otherwise without the locking bootloader, and as a default everyone in the Devs boards / ROMs will instruct you to wipe everything while flashing...

Yeah, hold on while I search every parse through 30+ pages on each rom thread to see if I can get away with a dirty flash rather than just asking if anyone has had any luck dirty flashing. Your attitude is the exact opposite of what XDA used to be. Rather than being a jerk why don't you actually...

Ignore palmbeach... he obviously has nothing better to do than troll these forums and insult anyone that doesn't dedicate their entire life to hacking android devices. As for being stuck on stock, since the device is over a year old and most devs have moved to other projects, it's likely this...

I've been perfectly happy running 4.1.2 Stock and custom rooted and frozen, and now Verizon is trying to force the 4.3 OTA down my throat. I'm looking to upgrade to match the current build numbers and firmware and run under the radar of Verizon. Anyone have any suggestions/experience on methods...

This is the definition of irony. Apple throws a fit about patents, when they stole the entire first apple OS from Bill Gates on the PC platform. They then cried foul when Win95 came out using design elements that they had stolen and rushed to market to claim they were 'created' by apple...

The razr would be better if it wasn't locked down. Samsung seems to like to encourage development (for example, the odin and test package leaks that happen when upgrades to os stall at the wireless provider.) and thus my next phone will probably still be a Samsung. Sent from my SCH-I400 using...

Try a different cable. I was having the same problem on the Samsung Continuum and it turned out that the cable was working for power, but not for data.

I had the same thing happen to me a month ago, but it hung on the verizon screen instead of the samsung screen. Seems our stock dumps don't contain the information to do DNS resolving. If you notice, the WiFi and 3G are both out, because you can't get DNS to work properly. I feel like if we...

The rep told you that you could change back to the other plan within 30 days of changing away from the plan. Tell them to submit an inactive pricing request and you can get your plan back :) Sometimes it pays to work at a VZN call center ;)

I just got a shiny brand new Continuum when the radio fried out on my old one, and I'm wanting to do pre-activation and post-activation dumps to try to figure out why the radio disables itself on a stock rom flash (i.e. if you brick.) Phone info: SCH-I400 SKU SCHi400zkv FCCid: A3LSCHi400 I'm...

This is the only bit of truth in this entire post. I work at a Verizon call center, and they've stated the only thing they will ever do to rooted phones is throttle their bandwidth, unless they are part of a botnet or some DDoS that could take down the system. Stop with the scare tactics...
