This app shows that it is using 17% of my battery. I have tried freezing, uninstalling, and denying root access to it, but still shows up as taking that much battery. Anyone know how to stop it from draining battery?
I was rooted on 5.0.1 using pingpong root, but don't recall that app draining any battery.
That's tmobile's root checking app, I think the only way to stop it is to disable or uninstall all the tmobile bloat, all of it.
Maybe then it will go away.
Also report and diagnostic info needs to be turned off in settings / privacy and safty.

i ahve the same issue, did you fix it ?
Use titanium to delete it you don't need it
is an APP?, a custom rom ?, a root program ?

If you havent figured it out yet, try opening up titanium backup app and select the magnifying glass at the top to search and then type in com.tmobile.pr.adapt and freeze or uninstall from there. That worked for me.

Is an app is on the market, Search for titanium backup, download, open up app grant root permission, click backup/restore, find it on the list, Hard press on it and click swipe left, and click uninstall, restart phone
then i can "unroot" with out problems ?, cause am not root

So you're not rooted and you're having this issue? That's strange, yeah I really don't know how to get rid of it in that case. Maybe you should try downloading samsung smart switch software to your PC and use it to reset your phone, hopefully fixing the issue. Did you try that yet?
Unrooting as far as I know can't be done without doing a factory reset or flashing the stock factory image through Odin, so it's better to just try using smartswitch first. Just make sure to back up all of your data on your PC first, because I think smart switch may wipe your storage.

Yeah try using smart switch. It will take longer but it is more recommended. Also, I recommend you backup any files you have on your phone before using smartswitch because I don't remember if it wipes your storage or not.

ok, i root to unlock, then i reinstall stock firmware throw odin, reading what you say am still root, smart switch fails (cause i am root ?), how can i unroot safe ?, cause smart switch fails
I'm a little confused. So you tried smart switch and it failed? That means that you either are rooted now or were rooted at some point. If smart switch fails then the only other way is to Odin the stock firmware which will factory reset and unroot your phone. If you're familiar with Odin just download the stock tar file from the first page in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3144105
First boot into recovery pressing volume up+home+power and do a wipe data factory reset from there (assuming you have stock recovery). Then boot into download mode pressing vol down+home+power while phone is off and Flash stock through Odin and you will be factory reset and unrooted for sure as long as your device is a T-Mobile s6 edge 925T model. That should make your com.tmobile.pr.adapt battery drain go away as well.
Keep in mind that the tar file in the link is the stock 5.1.1 firmware so it will update you to 5.1.1 if you weren't already. Also this will wipe your data for sure so back that up to your PC before you do anything.
ok, i change computer, and smart switch works, how ever com.tmobile.pr.adapt still there :/
Hmm I'm really not sure after that honestly, I thought that would fix it for you. I've only had the com.tmobile issue while being rooted so I really don't know how to get rid of it without root and using titanium. Maybe someone else can weigh in and offer some advice..
TB only works to delete /remove if your rooted.
Pp.
ok, i fix it (i guess), first i reinstall firmware throw smart switch (fails on windows, so i use my mac), then i install Package Disabler (play store), and i choose all tmobile apps, including com.tmobile.pr.adapt, all with out being root, at the moment my battery improves a lot, 98% baterry on standy after 2 hours (1 % per hour), and before, like 10% per hour

I have S3 with a problem. Stock.
It doesn't have "settings" option anywhere. Also can't pull down notification bar.
I guess to solve it is get new software, how do I go about that?
I did try factory reset, didn't help.
Any help appreciated.

Settings is in your app drawer and in the pulldown menu (It can't be deleted so it's definately there).
To open the pulldown menu, swype down from the top.
To update the software, you need either Kies (pc) or in your Settings (OTA).
Is this a new S3? What version of android? If you place the phone in landscape (within an app or browser) can you swipe down? If you can, then you might have a digitizer issue. If you can't, then it's a software issue and a factory data reset might fix it.
setting is and will always be there
unless you hide it...
if you still can't, post a screenshot
in landscape it doesn't work either
not sure which version android it is, cant get to settings
factory reset did't help
I was thinking odin, which is better option odin or kies?
when i connect phone to pc, it connects as media device, can i still use odin or kies?

You can flash it back to stock using Odin and that might resolve your issue. Stock firmware can be located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968625. There are some basic instructions there. If you are unsure about the process, there are multiple threads on xda about flashing back to stock. Remember to do a full wipe after flashing.

You're placing the phone in download mode first, correct? Try a different usb port on the computer and reinstall the s3 drivers

So last night, I guess my phone was trying to download and install security update from samsung and failed. My battery died later cause it was low and after I recharged my phone and turned it on, my phone literally took a crap. Everything crashes even settings. Cant send a text out. Bluetooth wont turn on etc.
Now after I back up my photos somehow, what would be the best way to restore to keep root and CWM?
Settings-restore?
dl note 3 os then flash with CWM?
Thanks guys.

It's possible during your update critical files were missed do to power loss and were replaced on reboot? I unfortunately was not able to get passed the bootscreen to recovery or the system itself. So i was forced to divert back to stock firmware and start from the beggining. So if you run into any more issues you might start there. If you kept root all should be well i believe. :good:

[Q] P605 Towelroot, then Titanium Backup, now my Statusbar & Task Manager are gone
Hello Guys,
i couldn't find anything specific in the forum yet. I really hope you can help me and i can explain it right (i'm from germany)
I successfully rooted my Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 LTE with Towelroot yesterday. I was super happy, Knox was still 0x0 and Status perfectly official.
I just wanted to install some apps that needed rootaccess and kick some bloatware off the device.
So today i installed Titanium Backup and even before i backupped everything, i wanted to get rid of "ChatOn", Businesweek+" and "NY Times". While i was at it, i also removed "Samsung Galaxy App purchase" (sth like that?). I thougt it was the one, that gets you into Samsung App Market, just to show you some cool apps for the galaxy phones?
And that was it. I wanted to freeze the rest with greenify.
Just when i searched for it a few minutes later, i realised that my statusbar was completely gone. Nothing happening when i try to get it down with my finger, its just gone.
Same thing with the task manager, i can press the home button twice, and theres samsung voice but if i hold it pressed longer, no task manager shows anymore.
After i found one Person with the same problem online (no solution) i also checked for incoming calls. They are not shown on the display anymore when the call is happening.
Long story short, i guess it must have happened when i deleted stuff with titanium backup (without backing up anything, so stupid, i know...)
Because everything was fine yesterday and all morning.
What is the best way to solve this?
Flash the original Firmware via Odin? What would that do to my Counter? Flash something else? I never planned to do any of this so that is where i get a little scared. What happens, when i try to connect the device to Kies?
Or should i rather unroot the device and try to get a new one? (I basically bought an extra insurance, so i technically even get a new one, when the displays broken etc.)
Oh and i've already did the cache wipe in recovery mode an multible reboots.
I know it must be so annoying to have people do something without obviously knowing exactly and then ask about it on the internet ...
but i would be so happy if you could give me any hint what to do.
And again, sorry for my english!
Why don't you try to flash the same stock ROM as the one you have with Odin ?
I think this would put the things back to square.:fingers-crossed:
You can find the stock ROM's here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ or here http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=SM-P605
Then restart the procedure of rooting, debloating but make a backup with Titanium backup first.

Okay, thank you very much for your answer! Then i guess i'll just try it with Odin now. Thank you very much for the links, i've already found the firmware (P605XXUCNF2)
Does it matter, which version of Odin i'm using? And i'm still not sure if this sets my knox Counter from 0x0 to 0x1 if it's a stock firmware?
For anyone elses information: I did a factory reset today and the problem is still there, together with the background staying completely black now and a constant message "KeyguardTestActivity has stopped" popping up every second.
I really hope flashing the stock ROM sets everything back to normal.
Thank you so much for your help!

No risk at all to trip Knox to 0x1 if you flash a stock firmware , I believe you have just suppressed a necessary APK !!

Hi everyone. I'm stock, unrooted and running 5.0.1. I did a factory reset and just before the phone actually reset, the little android guy said performing system update. When the phone was restored, the Hotspot and tethering toggle under connections was gone. I chatted with both Sprint and Samsung about this and both were clueless. Has this happened to anyone else or does anyone know why or how to get the toggle back? Thanks in advance.
The first time I flashed Lollipop it wouldn't access any sd card. I searched for hours to find any kind of solution but nothing worked. I wiped everything. Data, System, Cache, everything (except my sd card) and flashed Lollipop again (from the same image) and now everything works perfectly. If you have crazy problems, a full wipe and reflash should fix it.

This is a fairly well known tool for all galaxy phones. It has an option to enable all toggles that are hidden by default:

Right..
The 'setting' is there under settings..
BUT, the OP said that there was a 'toggle' in the pull down notification bar.
I cant remember seeing one there, untill I MSL'ed the hotspot turned on. Thats when I started to notice..
Was it ever there in the first place???

My apologies. I've been calling it a toggle. The "setting" for hotspot and tether under "settings" is what disappeared. So without it I couldn't even get to the actual toggle that turns the hotspot on. Under connections, it just went Bluetooth>Airplane Mode. But the setting was there before the factory reset.
Did anybody figure why the settings is gone. I did the same the same thing for my mom phone hot spot there. I search for hot spot on mine and it can't be found. I did the update and the msl hack and nothing.

I would suggest to do a factory reset in recovery to try and get it back.
And if that doest work, then I suggest to Odin flash the BOB7 and see if it comes back without an additional factory reset.
good luck..
Heres what mine looks like..
I took the OTA update and factory reset twice in recovery.

The OTA made it disappear, and the factory reset put it back. On my mom phone no affect.
My problem started some months ago, when a friend tried to root my phone, he told me that he rooted it but every app that checks for root told me that it wasn't rooted and i couldn't use apps that needed root also, the downside to all this is that i couldn't use apps that do not allow root, like the banking app, or Pokemon Go, but i used the phone like that for some months until last week when i decided to try and fix it. I thought that if i flash a stock firmware everything should be fine and the phone should be as new. On the phone, it says that the model is SM-N910F(behind the battery), in the settings it also said SM-N910F, so i tried flashing a rom for this model at first and it kept failing with me not knowing why. After trying different thing and googleing some time, i finally noticed that in "Fast Download", it says that the phone's model is SM-N910P, so i started searching about this, i didn;t understand why there were 2 different models on my phone, then i found out about searching my IMEI on imei.info, so i tried it and here it was SM-N910C, i had no idea what all this meant, but at this time i already got stuck into bootloop. Eventually, i found this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/help-sm-n910f-sm-n910p-bootloader-t3299285 and did what cam_bob22 said, it worked, i finally flashed the firmware on my phone and it worked, i could use the bank app, pokemon go, everything was fine except the fact that i couldn't select or change my mobile operator, when going to mobile networks, the mobile operators options was greyed out and couldn't be pressed(i want to mention that i did have service and that data worked but the internet would work only in roaming and i couldn't get 4G). So i tried updating the software from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 like it was said in the instructions and hopping that this update would fix the issue, but unfortunately for me after the update i somehow lost service completely, the signal sign was in the shape of a triangle with no bars, and the mobile operators setting was exactly as before.
So far i tried going back to 5.1.1 but besides the Hands Free activation that i can't make to go away, i still can't use the mobile operators setting and my data only works with roaming activated and doesn't get 4g. One thing that i forgot to mention is that the IMEI with the 5.1.1 firmware was of a samasung Galaxy S5 not a note 4, i checked it on imei.info.
I was wondering if there is any way for me to go back to the OS i had before my friend tried to root my phone, when it said in the settings that it was SM-N910F and everything worked as it should have.
Thank you for reading and i really hope someone can help me.
@robert11arad
There is no way to go back unless he made a backup. Which is why you should always do this before you flash anything.
I'm not sure if this will help but you could try flashing a international custom Rom after you have correct firmware. But if your phone is a Sprint version, you'll have to use a special data fix and kernel.
What firmware did you end up using to flash? Was it Sprint? If so, and you use gsm service, try flashing my Gsm stock Rom for Sprint phones. It's in post 2.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...t/05-15-17-debloated-deodexed-rooted-t3607029
You'll first need to be on current marshmallow firmware. So flash firmware with Odin first, then install Twrp with Odin. Then install Rom with Twrp.

No, the network operators is unlocked but there's still no service, when i try scanning for an operator it just stops with no message, and nothing happens.
I forgot to mention this, but before all this happened, I made a back-up of the phone with smart switch, is it possible to get back to how it was using that? And another thing is that when using the backup, it only restores music and photos, no contacts, no apps.(From what i've noticed so far)

You would have needed a system backup with twrp.
What country you in? What network you on? What firmware you on?

Ok. About the best advice i can give is, because your on pure Sprint Rom, something is messing up with csc or something.
All i can suggest, is maybe try updating to QC1 with Odin and then try flashing my gsm Rom. Which is essentially just a tmobile rom.
And if that don't give you the function you you need. Then maybe try an international Rom.
It's hard to say what the last person did to the phone.

Also. You stated your phone first showed as a 910f. So maybe flashing a international F rom, will provide the correct csc settings for your phone to work. Only problem your gonna have, is because it's Sprint hardware, you'll have to pair the Rom with a kernel that'll work and some lib files for data.
I can help you by putting together some files to flash. But the main question would be, Do you want a stock note 4 Rom?
Also before any of this happened, do you know what firmware you were on? Marshmallow? Lollipop?

I would really appreciate if you helped me put the files together cause i have no idea how any of this works, i'm new. But i wanted to ask, is there any chance for thia to brick my phone?
When it had sm-n910f on it i couldn't update it after 5.1.1, when i pressed update it wouldn't do anything.
And yes, if possible i would like it to be a stock firmware, but if it is not possible i don't mind using something else as long as it works properly.
Thank you for all your help, i don't know what i would do otherwise.

Well, first, let me state,about bricking device. I have to state that it's not impossible to brick. But after hundreds of flashes never had problem. These devices are hard to brick. What hard bricks a device is messing with boot loader and partitions that shouldn't be messed with, like trying to unlock lte bands. But just flashing roms is fine unless you flash a Rom not for your phone and it over writes wrong partition.
All snap Dragon note 4s have the same layout so all you need is correct kernel, csc, and some ril lib files to get data working.
Now, mine main worry is that the phone is still unlocked,because I don't know what possible changes were made to it.
But with all that being said,I'll move on. With another post.

Before we go too deep into this and upgrade and stuff. I'd like to just test a custom Rom on your phone and see what works.
So what firmware are you on right now?
5.01, 5.1.1, or 6.0.1?
I'm gonna take a guess and move on. You last stated you were on OG5 which it's 5.1.1. So if that's true, let's try the following.
First I'm gonna assume you already used Odin to flash that firmware. So now we need to flash Twrp. So download this on pc https://eu.dl.twrp.me/trlte/twrp-3.1.1-0-trlte.img.tar
1 . Put phone in download mode. Open Odin and plug in phone.
2. In Odin options make sure everything is unticked except Reset Flash Counter.
3. Now click on AP and select the Twrp file.
4. Flash it. Let it flash until it states it's completed. Once done. Unplug phone. Pull out battery. Put back in and boot to recovery by holding power+home+vol.up
5. Now you should have Twrp. Just reboot phone so we can continue to next post.

Ok, here you go. If your where we left off, you should be on stock QC1 and have Twrp installed.
Just download this file, boot into recovery, and install. This file will delete dalvick/cache, so phone will take a few minutes to boot up.
I actually recommend before flashing, you do a factory reset in recovery then install.
Anyhow here you go. Let me know if it fixes what your looking for. If not, my only others option is to install a custom n910f Rom. I'll gladly walk you through if need be. But try this first.

Alright so i just tried it and when starting my phone, i can't even set it up because i keep getting a message that com.android.phone has stopped. After about half an hour of trying to start it, i finally managed to get to setting and to app manager, there i looked for com.android.phone and it was nowhere to be found. Apart from this i noticed a N with some signal bars where my phone signal should've been and i didn;t get the hands free activation anymore, but that's all...
