Please help: Using a Verizon 7 EDGE in a GSM market with new SIM?

How do I get a Verizon S7 Edge to recognize a new GSM SIM? I want to use it on another carrier, and Verizon says it's not SIM-locked/carrier locked but when I put in the new SIM, it's not working.

Factory reset didn't work. Would an Odin flash work? IF not, what would?

Thanks. Not sure if I'm asking in the right place.

Moving Pictures from One Album to Another?

Does anyone know how to move pictures from 1 album to another?
Example: I take a pic of my truck and then that pic automatically goes to the album named camera, now I want to move that pic from "Camera" to my album named "My Truck"

The other Note series I could just hold the pic down and then move it or I could select the pic and click menu and select which album I want to move it to.

I appreciate any help I could get.

Micro SD card write protected - Facebook prime suspect

My phone is rooted. I am using Lenovo A7000 phone with AOSP 6.0 by Risma Ermaya.


I have formatted my SD card as internal storage using the default feature of marshmallow.

Few months back, I started facing the issue of Facebook and Messenger updates. Whenever I used to update my facebook or messenger from the playstore, these apps stopped opening and used to crash. But after I used to restart my phone, these applications ran fine. A week ago, I installed instgram for the first time in this phone. Similar thing happened with it too. After installation from Google Play store, it did not open. However, after restarting the phone, everything went well.*


Yesterday, I was updating facebook, I got the error 403. I cleared up data of my playstore app after forced stopping it, removed all my google accounts from the phone, and rebooted the device. After rebooting, the error was still showing up in the playstore. Feeling frustrated, I forced stopped Google Play services framework application, cleared it data and rebooted my phone. But, the problem was still there.


I have got into deeper trouble now. My microSD card has become write protected. I did not remove my SD card at all since months. It is of sandisk brand and has class 10.*


I cannot take screenshots. I cannot download any file from chrome browser. I cannot download images sent to me by my friends through whatsapp.*


I cannot even copy one file in its folder to another folder in the memory card. I have tried using the default file explorer and Solid Explorer application. I have just 587 MB remaining in my phone. However, I can access any file I want to. My videos and music are playing just fine.*


I am also able to delete any files within the file explorer, so that I can make a nandroid backup of my files in TWRP. Even TWRP does not allow me to delete my music and videos within the SD card. What should I do to fix this trouble? I do not want to format my SD card as it has lot of important data. Even if I connect my phone to my PC and try to copy the files, the process hangs after few seconds and Windows explorer hangs which is displaying the content in my SD card. I am running windows 8.1.


I have also tried unmounting and remounting my sd card using the in built feature of Marshmallow, but this trick still doesn't solve my trouble.*

I have also tried clearing cache and dalvic from TWRP but still no progress. I feel that facebook is the culprit because while clearing cache in TWRP, it gives the error that it could not clear cache from com.facebook.katana folder.

LG GPAD 7 410 LTE: Confused about installing Cyangenmod

I've been working on trying to get Cyangenmod installed for several days now, off and on. So far I haven't bricked my Gpad, but have had some harrowing issues -- like the Play Store no longer works, and I have no internet browsers left on the gpad. But no matter, I have an SD card and have been transferring apk's and other files that way.

Anyway, I think I am close, but not quite there. Currently the status is I have root access, I have Flashify and Titanium Pro and TWRP all installed on the phone. I have the latest Cyangenmod .img and .zip files for my tablet model (installed in internal SDCARD folder). I tried pointing Flashify to the .zip file I downloaded and it first asked if it should copy the file to a "Safe" location -- I said sure, go ahead. IT returned with an unsuccessful message. So I thought "screw it" and just went ahead without saving it. At this point it appeared to work, I saw the "DOS-like" scroll of text with a volume-button menu of options. I just chose reboot, and the tablet rebooted -- but nothing was changed. Still have the LG and ATT screens, no Play Store, etc.

So obviously I chose something wrong. What is it? I don't know how to use TWRP first if needed, I was trying to Flashify the Cyangenmod .zip file first and then start looking into TWRP. Do I need to do something with TWRP first?

At this point I don't know enough to ask the right questions, but need some kind of boost to get Cyangenmod running on my phone. Any help appreciated.

Galaxy note 7 (Canadian) Exynos F/FD discussion thread

I'm just going to leave this here. The title is pretty much self explanatory. This thread is for all of you from the great white North who could not, would not settle for the locked down Snapdragon 820 W8 variant.
Have fun!

Sent from my note 7, my pixel C or my oneplus 3 depending on how I'm feeling!
