Issues with Marshmallow update T-Mobile Priv - BlackBerry Priv

Perhaps someone has experienced this...
Since I saw a couple of day ago that the official update was up, I have been checking the software update on the phone. Finally it came down today, and to my disappointment, it seems that it will not download.
On the blue and white software update screen (I can't get a screenshot to this computer from the phone), it tells me that an update is available, when I click to download, the same screen shows "Update available" in caps, and right under "Verification failed..."
What verification? I have never seen this error on this phone or any other Android phone I have ever owned (rooted or not). Besides leaving it alone and/or repeatedly press "check for update" what else can I do?
Already restarted a few times, just in case.

Fixed. Nothing a full reset wouldn't cure.
Now back to restore apps.

[Q] DMClient won't let me update

I've been looking and haven't found anyone with a fix to this issue.
I just got my TF tablet today (its not even rooted yet) and when i go to the update screen i get:
"The application DMClient (process com.asus.dm) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I've factory reset twice now, cleared the cache and force closed the DMClient in the application settings to no avail. It's also rather annoying cuz it pops up randomly too.
Does anybody know how I can fix this and get it updated?
i've got the same error today.
Me too...
I had the same - the only way of stopping this error from popping up was to stop the service and clear the cache.
Looking at the cache at the time of the error, I do not see any updates, so I presume that this gets buggered when the update notification comes in.
The FOTA system sucks big time and hasn't given me nothing but trouble since I owned the Transformer.
Asus should offer the firmware update on their site right away.
I just did a factory reset and will return the thing for a refund tomorrow before the returns policy expires. I've had enough.
The experience I had with this platform has been piss-poor and it became apparent very quickly that the underlying platform is Linux - if you love tinkering great, if you simply want it to work get something proper.

help! black screen instead of lock screen - nothing works

hi all,
since a day i have an extremely annoying issue with the note3 (sm-9005)
first, when it boots - it takes ca.10 minutes. stuck on the samsung animated logo.
then the black screen appears with the status bar (which i can drag down). normally i should have a lock screen appearing. but it just remains black. and in the status bar i have a message " you can now safely remove sd card" and "tap to enter knox". nothing happens when tapping those two...
can i play back an update from the SD card so that FW renews and i don't have to so factory reset and reinstall everything?
(ps. when connecting phone to a pc it shows no disks inside the phone so that if it still was locked...)
thanks in advance!

well same thing as one would do using kies, only somehow without kies. i saw in the recover boot an option "apply update from external storage" and was wondering what file could i use for that?
i have SWC region on my device...
Answer is no via above.
Firmware update is via Kies or Odin .
Alternative is custom rom via custom recovery .

UPD: after some searching i was able to unlock the device through samsung's findmomybile. however, half of the apps are missing, most of the ones which are not missing do not work, etc...
i guess not much left but factory reset. hopefully these are not corrupt internal storage problems.

Did anyone come up with a solution to this other than findmymobile? I have had the same problem with my Note 3, e.g. taking 5-10 mins to load up from power off, the dreaded black screen with the power / wifi / etc icons shown on the top. My Note 3 was password protected as well, meaning I can't get into it even with Kies. I have the latest stock firmware installed.
I hadn't installed any apps to my phone before it died, however I do recall a security update being installed earlier in the day (this looked like an official Android one).
Any ideas? I went along to a Samsung Service Centre for help and they had told me that they had seen at least 5 cases of this on a Note 3 over the last two days.
Security update ??

I did not receive any response from anyone from anywhere. So I tried on myself and started manipulating every corner. I tried bluetooth and I could backup my contacts. It was the first victory.
I restarted into safemode by holding down the Down Volume for about 10 minutes! I wanted to try calling via pc via bluetooth. Just as a blind try. Meanwhile I saw a Knox notofication I had seen before so I just clicked carelessly. Vow!! The Knox Lock Screen was there blinking behind some error messages. I tried my lock pattern but nothing happended. I tried more and more, I was thinking this may corrupt the LCD! because it was blinking and went on off rapidly.
I saw that a counter is reducing. 20 attempts left.. 19 attempt... I worked hard till 4 or 3 then some message popup saying knox may be uninstalled. I said who cares? and went on. finally knox was uninstalled. I continued manipulating other available corners of the Note 3 and after a while I restarted and vow!! It was like back to life!
I came here writing for those who are out there seeking every corner of the web for a liitle bit of information.
I backed up my stuff and did a factory reset. It seems fine now.
I suggest manipulating every possible sequence of events. It will pop up some error and then the answer may rise!
best wishes
in my case i unlocked it with findmymobile, backed up stuff to SD card and did factory reset without much further thinking.
phone works fine until today

AQF7 Update Problems

I just received the newest update (08 June) on my TelekomDE branded S8+ (DTM), you can see the exact versions in the image.
So after I updated I noticed everything being "strange". After a few seconds I understood that for some reason the RTL mode (right to left) was enabled, so I searched for that setting in the developers options. But when I found it, I saw it being disabled and even after flipping it a few times nothing changed. While doing all that I got confused by the glitched out status bar, which said 100% and 7:00, although at other places it showed the true information. I have prepared a short clip showing the whole thing.
All problems were completely gone after a restart, so everything's fine again.
EDIT: Can't provide clip, XDA gives me a network error...

Trusty Note 4 Booting Issue!!

Hey guys, I have had my Note 4 for about 3 years now and it has never done me wrong. However, things have taken a turn for the worse... I started noticing a few days ago that it was slowing down on me, I mean, really slowing down. Big lag times when it comes to swiping to open the screen, or changing between apps, and the occasional self-shut down when the battery got down to about 15-20%. I had been putting off doing a self-update for a while, and when I finally had time to do one tonight, in hopes of cleaning it up, it is now lying on its death bed
I do not think the update ever finished (my phone is not rooted) but I was desperate enough to even do a factory reset and that has not fixed the issue.
Here are the symptoms:
As I go to boot the phone, I get past the Samsung Note logo and it looks like it is about to load properly, but then I get a popup that says "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped" I hit ok and it keeps popping up again. I can't bypass it.. Then after I get passed that for a split second, another popup comes up that says "unfortunately system UI has stopped" It prevents me from getting to the home screen, in fact the screen behind it is black.
I have tried the following:
Clearing the cache partition from the recovery screen
I have done numerous hard restarts
I have gone through with a factory restart
That is where I have left off, and lost most hope, was with the factory restart. Now when I turn it on, I get past the logos and I can see in the background the page you would get as if it was a brand new phone (it says "Welcome! Preparing you device for first time use.." etc. But I can't do anything about it because I am still getting the same two popups that prevent me from doing absolutely everything!!!)
I have read about this happening and people seem to be able to fix this by accessing certain app setting and either resetting them, or clearing their cache. However, that is not an option for me because I can't get that far. I think something must have went wrong during the update...
Please help with any advice you can think of. I have been putting off rooting this phone pretty much because I was afraid of royally f****** it up, but at this point I am willing to try anything.
Thanks,
Eric
Hey guys, does anyone have any suggestions for my issue?? I am about to go out and buy a new phone, I have no idea what I can do to fix this. I have rooted it using Odin, but the popups are still occurring. I can't get the popups to stop, and they are preventing me from doing absolutely everything.
Is there anyway I can get it to go back to complete scratch? Again, I have done a factory reset, cleared the cache, rooted using Odin. I have done everything I can think of/what I have read I can do. I am willing to try anything at this point.
UPDATE: At this point my phone is on, and the only error message/popup I am getting is "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped." Behind that popup is a blank, black screen. The only option I have is to click ok, and the screen remains black.
Temporary solution that might work- Try logging in safe mode: Switch off the phone. Power it on and as soon as Samsung logo appears, release the power button and press and hold the volume down button. Release button when you see Safe Mode on the lower left corner of the screen. Try uninstalling all user apps in safe mode. To get back to the normal mode you can drag down from notification and disable safe mode.
You could also download the latest software for your model from samfirm and flash it via odin after factory reset. Could be a permanent solution.
why you just flash last frimware from sammobile,it will solve all your problems
SOLVED!!!
Alright guys, I was able to solve my problem, all thanks to this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/general/stock-tar-odin-flashable-t3250864
I had already tried flashing a fresh stock rom, but to no prevail. I saw this thread and thought, hey why not give it a shot, and bingo! After downloading the .tar file for marshmellow and launching it through odin, she was good as new! So if anyone seems to have a problem with the system ui or the process phone.android popup, I suggest that thread.

SD-card is getting unmounted temporarily after pie update

Hello everyone,
after the pie update 10.0.4.0 I am noticing a strange problem, which I am trying to figure out right now.
It began, that after waking up and picking up my phone, the lock screen pattern was enabled again (I am using the smart lock feature at home when connected to my wifi). On the phone there was a notification like "After a reboot you have to enter the pin again to unlock the phone" or something similiar.
After some time I noticed, that the phone wakes up by itself, the screen comes on and there is no carrier signal ("emergency calls only") for a very short time (maybe a second or two). After that the notification "Checking SD-card" appears. So it seems like the SIM & SD-card would have been unmounted by the system. It can happen everytime and is not related to a specific app.
What I did:
1.) I put the SD-card into my PC and checked it for corruption
2.) Disabled some gallery apps, which I installed last december
3.) Waited for the february 10.0.5.0 update
Unfortunately, without success.
Today I was able to note the exact time the issue happend again (14:51 o'clock) and pulled a logcat. I wanted to read an Focus news article from the notification tray and then it happened. Because I am not sure, if a hardware or software problem is the cause , I need your help:
It would be awesome, if someone could have a look at the attached logcat and give me some hints and advices what might be the problem.
Thank you very much!
