Back and mulit/folder key Function - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, Trying to figure out how to enable the back and multi/folder key function on my SM-G928W8 S6 Edge+, running custom rom such as Sick as Hell ( the best!!!!), TekHD and a few others. Everything installs smoothly and runs fine but the keys. Tried on both the 5.1.1 and MM versions. I've noticed that during the initial boot up with the Samsung logo, the keys flash for about 1 sec then nothing. Looking around I can not find the file location for the key function, build.prop or key.layout???? Browsing the forums I ran across "how to build a custom rom" All great but still its like reading Klingon to a deaf child.... Hope I've given you enough to go on. I'll flash anything on any device!!!!! thxs

[Q] motorola defy does not start

Hi ..
I had updated defy to the latest cnmod nighty version. ( 110410 ). Eveerything was working fine. i played with the phone for the entire day. video acceleration was awesome and played gt racing.
Suddenly there was problem with wifi connection. I decided to restart the phone. Choose the reboot menu . and now the phone is stuck with the moto logo on startup. Nothing happens after that.
When the bluelight blinks after the android menu , when I press the down button , I get android bootmenu v1.0.5 (By cynongen defy team and galaxy) ,
i was not able to do anything from here. It has these menus :
1)Boot : boot is set to 2nd init
2)cpu settings
3)recovery : in the recovery menu , If i choose latest recovery or stable recovery , I get error in /system/bootmenu/script/recovery.sh (Result: no such file or directory) , and when I choose stock recovery , the phone restarts and is stuck with an exclamation mark )
4)tools: I could understand what to do here.
When nothing did work , I pressed both up and down button after changing boot to normal. there i cleared some cache or something , cleared everything that I could.
After all this my phone is in the same place. A moto logo on startup.
Please can someone help me . This is my first android phone and also the first costly phone I bought and I did something nasty on the first day itself.
i am a normal end user who knows nothing more than gui.
thanks in anticipation
hey
flash a stock 2.2.2 with RDS from bootloader
you gonna need latest defy drivers for windows plus a stable froyo i guess
google this "how to unblick a bricked defy"
let us know what you do and what changes
are you sure this is a case of bricked defy. I had read in many places it is very difficult to brick defy.
its not bricked
but that is what you need to search for to get the solution
i did so too
What "Natsikap" said.
Clear Data/Cache.
Flash Official Froyo 2.2.2 using RSDLite, Use your region correct Froyo (If you are from India use SEA15 Stock ROM -Get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Motorola_Defy). Everything will be Stock normal. Read everything in the wiki before you flash anything, esp read the "How to get back to Normal in case things go awry" part you will save yourself the High BP!
thanks all for your support.
i have installed the orginal manufactuer android froyo
and flashed it later with cynogenmod 7.1 for defy. The latest stable one that was released yesterday
One more question:
Should I unroot this cynogenmod .. so that I don't mess something.
congratulations
you sorta came from behind and am sorta left behind
question: does the 7.1 have any wifi issues? working properly?
tell me so i can make the jump too
thanks bro
sorry for the late reply..
no it does not have any issues.. at least i could'nt find any.
wifi was working like a charm. used it for around 2 hours ..
Couple of questions..
1) i don't lke the menus flying into the screen. How can i change this animation to the normal fade animation that came with original os.
2)should i unroot my cynogenmod should that i don't cripple it while playing with settings or someother way.
Do not unroot CM7. Make site you make a backup in recovery, that way if you mess something up you can just restore it. As for animations, go to settings> cyanogen settings> display, you should be able to change the animations. If not try spare parts app.
Swyped from my MIUI Defy
i have defy plus.....i havnt rooted it ...its working on original 2.3.6
my phone is starting but power button not working.....when i put it on charing lock screen comes to life but touch not working..
sometimes it remains on moto logo
please help

910F lags at 5.1.1 and after downgrade

Hey guys,
after flashing the 5..1.1 rom my Note 4 started to lag at the keyboard after typing few letters or reading the website or in menu.
I use the N910FXXU1COH4 software. The worst part is that it happened yesterday. I havent got lags before (never ever).
Now I've got also lags when I downgrade to 5.0.1
Do you have any idea why this happened? My phone is ofc rooted and I've deleted most of the useless (for me) crap out of it like Instagram, NFC etc.
Do you have this kind of problems with your phone?
Thanks for reply.
I had the same issues you've stated after flashing a 5.1.1 Sweden rom with ODIN.
It lagged like crazy while other aspects were buttery smooth.
After a factory reset and a re-install with ODIN (just the way I did it- not saying it's the correct way of doing it) my phone is running as it should- super quick, smooth and as a Note 4 should be.
So I'd recommend full-wiping and then re-installing the 5.1.1 tar via ODIN.
I've also rooted now too with no issues.
Good luck.
I've got also problem in games. Sometimes the animation just freeze for about 0,5 s and then it runs again. It happens everywhere. And I've got it from yesterday. Dunno whats the problem...
I'm having lags and stutter too my friend, but i'm gonna leave it like this for now and wait for a proper release of 5.1.1 for my country instead of frankenstein mix it like i did now.
If that does not fix the lags im going back to 4.4.4 and never upgrade it again.
Guys, this problem is quite strange.
I've downgraded to 5.0.1 and then to 4.4.4 and every time Ive got lags on keyboard and TW. My phone started to freeze for about 0.5 s - 1 s. Its very annoying and I dont know how to deal with this problem. And it scares me ! Cuz knox is [1] and the warranty went for a walk I guess so i dont know what to do now...
Have you ever this kind of problem with your phone? Even the downgrade did nothing. Before flashing the 5.1.1 system it was fine. Now going down and wiping whole system gives me nothing ;(
Please help! I dont know what to do now...
On cyanogenmod 12.1 works fine. The problem is I guess with the touchwiz systems...
On 5.1.1 touchwiz is also overheating now :/ maybe thats the problem?
So the problem looks like this : After flashing the Swedish 5.1.1 system it all started up.
I can see it in:
1) Games - when it randomly freezes for second
2) Keyboard - after hitting multiply in letters typing something like asidiasjdasijdsaid -> it sudennly stucks and then after about 1 s the button ive smashed shows up in the text message with the lag3
3) touch wiz - after swiping from homescreen to another screen just dont answer and after about again 1s it changes
4) the top bar - with wifi, sounds, brightness, clock, battery etc) also goes down with lag - I swipe with my finger and after 1 second - it react.
5) sometimes it shows the grey suqare at the bottom "Phone is in factory mode" - red letters. It shows only for a while and suddenly disappear.
I've changed every rom now - from 4.4 to 5.1.1 and its still broken! On the Cyanogenmod it works just fine. Something might be broken but I dont know what. Also in cyanogenmod the only game i play have this lags. Other things works fine.
Any solution, what can i do? everything was ok before flashing the 5.1.1? Ive got the EFS folder backuped via TWRP
// EDIT
So - after I've found the backup which I've done just after buying Note I've restored full system (EFS, cache, system etc) and it helped. I guess 5.1.1 flashes makes that my Note 4 had a very bad day.
You can close the topic. My advice is to always have backup ! Glad Ive done it before.

Navigation keys not working on marshmallow-SM-A500FU

Hi, I recently got an A5 (2015) that hasn't been used for a while. It had lollipop on there so I updated it through OTA to the newest version and after that the recent apps and back key stopped working. I tried factory resseting, reinstalling the newest version of the firmware through odin, and now i rooted it and installed Aryamod ROM (note 7 port) and still no change. Only thing that fixes it is going back to lollipop, but i do not like that firmware because its buggy, laggy and outdated. Does anyone know the fix for this? Thanks for your help in advance
I apologise if this is a well known issue or something, but I couldn't find a solution through search or google. Also sorry for my fails in speaking English
EDIT: I also noticed that the phone gets stuck in sleep. Sometimes it takes really long for the screen to turn on, and sometimes it won't turn on at all and i must reboot the phone by holding power and volume down keys. Not sure if this is relevant, but it sure is annoying.. Currently running aryamod with hadeskernel v2.0

SM-G928F (Galaxy S6 Edge+) No lock screen method

Hello peeps!
i had a s6 edge+ for a while now and i tried different roms on nougat and marshmallow. I like the marshmallow roms better (NOT NOTE 7 OR 5 PORTS) but when i try to set a lock screen like pin or fingerprint it should be under lock screen and security, here it comes, it ISN'T there and i searched the whole settings menu so i thought: "it might be this rom?" so i tried installing another rom (fully stock from sammobile) but still no luck... maybe one of you guys could extract your settings menu from marshmallow and give a link so i can inject that into my system in the hope that would would fix it? or is there another way to get that menu back into the settings?
thx in advance
see y'all later peeps! cheers

Hardware keys not working after flashing

Yesterday I boughten op2 immediately unlocked and flashed, but instantly my hardware keys won't work anymore, also tried going back to stock nothing works. Anybody have any ideas?
See if this thread helps you in any way
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2205998
You need root and need to do the opposite of what's said in the thread. I used it to disable HW keys when I flashed pie ROM. ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP OF THE FILES YOU'RE ALTERING
