[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanky:
I have an xperia arc s lt18i, french version, that i bought in canda for use in europe/asia. As far as i can tell the firmware is generic, non carrier branded, but does have a lot ofmbloatware i cat remove such as canal+, games downloads, warner vod, etc. about 8-10 excess things i want to get rid of. As such i have a few questions regarding possibility of flashing a different firmware (official sony) without rooting or bootloader unlocking.

I found a british firmware and a german firmware. For others in my situation, which firmware has ithe least firmware from all of them, and alo gets the quickest updates, and will be the quickest ics update? Im not sure how android updates work, i know carrier specific firmware always is more delayed, but for generic firmwares is the release date region specifc, or do they get st same time. If not sll together, then which region is best?

If i flash a different generic sony firmware, will i then be eligible for ota updates? I am currently on 0.62, but for the uk and german versions ive only been able to find 0.42. Can i jsut flash this and then do ota/pc companion update?

Ive never done this rooting firmware flashing stuff and im coming from an iphone, so i do want a bit of simplicity. Want to have a firmware i can flash once, and then forget about it knowing its the best one.

Would appreciate any help as i need to do this in next cople of days before i leave.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluxgfx:
To answer your question really simply.

You'll have to root your phone before you can remove the bloatware. What does that mean?

You'll have to downgrade to firmware .42 or .58. Then use the SuperOneCLick 2.3.3 or Flashtool to root it. Once you've done that with either the UK, US/CA firmware you'll get the OTA update to .62 and your update will proceed normally. You'll end up still having root and then you'll be able to remove all the apps you don't want.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanky:
Ok thanks. So one option is to remove bloatware manually through root. I actually dont mind if theres one or two things like for example lets golf, and one ormtwomother things, but mine has 8-10 useless icons taking up a whole screen. So what i was wondering is If i dont want to go for the root method, then which sony firmware is best in terms f minimal bloatware (i realize it wnt be 0) and quickest updates.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluxgfx:
All the generic firmwares I've tried for the Sony Xperia Arc all have almost the same bloatware. Letsgulf, canal+, bbc, etc.. There's about 8 of them or so in each one.

I've tried the UK, US, Nordic, HK ones samething... variation on each. So your still stuck with the same problem either way. Also depending on the firmware there's a few hidden process that shows up in running services....
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanky:
Thanks a lot for clarifying! That then makes it wirth it for me to root and remove all the bloatware. I just wanted to make sure because i wanted one stable firmware before i started using the phone, and then stick to that and official firmwares. Cant be bothered with all the backups and restores. So ill try root with yiur method and see how it goes.thanks again for your help.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluxgfx:
Note to self... it's not my method... it's the method that from the other POST in the forum. Cheers.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BluechipJ:
Yup. Unfortunately, every single firmware will have apps despite being generic. They have Sony apps such as Let's Golf and others. There's no way to remove system apps without rooting.

In the past, "i" firmwares get updated in the following order: Nordic (since Ericsson is Swedish), German, Hong Kong, UK, Asia, North America.

You don't lose OTA updates unless you modify system files like the Home.apk, notifications, widgets, fonts, etc.

As for backing up, frankly, most programs are one-click. Titanium, Sony Ericsson Backup & Restore, etc. Don't be lazy.

Flashing and rooting are also dead simple and have been since the X10.

[Milestone XT720 General] tojejo:
I had a problem with my touchscreen in my Motorola Milestone xt720. I found it out becouse few areas of screen didnt respond. So i bought the Isopropanol and i washed every single part carefully. After drying and putting parts together it still was the same, additionally I noticed, that when pushing the screen near the ear speaker the touchscreen behaves otherwise, or works as it should. Than i took the parts off again and watched the tape. It was torn (or broken). Than i ordered new digitizer on Ebay. After replacing the digitizer and connecting parts again it doesnt power on, and even do not enter in bootlaoder mode. I think the LCD or any single part isnt connected wrong, becouse phone should vibrate and give sound while staring. What can i do with home remedies? Thank you in advance for the answers ;)
[Milestone XT720 General] pakpaker:
If you were the one who did the assembly yourself, you should be aware of ESD. Have you tried reconnecting the old digitizer? And this time, ensure that you are shielded if you weren't (ESD straps). ESD can turn your unit into one real brick, so be careful.
[Milestone XT720 General] Similya:
i think you have bought a different digitizer that is not compatible with xt720,

there are similar digitizer with milestone xt720, like;

motoroi xt720 - looks the same but different hardware.

moto xt711 - looks the same but different hardware.

moto xt701 - looks the same but different hardware.

or maybe you have bought a damage digitizer. :-(
[Milestone XT720 General] tojejo:
@Similya: I dont think so that digitizer is wrong, becouse it looks not the same at the visual point of the front but 100% the same from the back while watching the touch paths, and the tape with connector. Anyway there is not any other looking like my stock on ebay (mirror effect, and other button icons on the top), and the seller got ~99% positive grades with comments reffering to the "Milestone XT720 Digitizer Auction" as "It fits well and works great", "A++ Grade. Fits fine and working.", etc. So i think i have chosen the good one.

@pakpaker: I dont know what is it but i will google about the ESD, i hope it isnt too late ;/

And i cannot connect the old diditizer couse i threw it to the trash after comparison to the new one. Should it start when i just disconnect it and run?

edit: ok i know what ESD straps are, but i was replacing some parts in phones without it and everyone works fine ;/ and the digitizer looks more like the 701 / 711 one but everyone who is selling them says that fits to 720 and customers who buy it gives positive opinion and comment like "it works well". So what is going on? If it is not the proper one, shouldnt it start but just digitizer does not work?
[Milestone XT720 General] Similya:
just to make it sure, just bring your phone to a cellphone technician for a better check up. just avoid touching the chips and board. it might catch an ESD from your body. ESD can damage the cpu, ram and all CMOS chips.

by the way, what rom you are using.?
[Milestone XT720 General] tojejo:
I was using stock rom 2.1 + root and some mods :p

Ok i will try to find someone but just cant believe that ESD may cause any damage. It has very high voltage, but extremaly low current, so that charge may not pass over any integrated circuit. I think it is only balancing the charge between item and hand, and those ESD straps protects technician against high current from other items which are working atm ;]

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
It works on the Thunderbolt because it has SVDO for simultaneous voice/data over CDMA 3G. The Galaxy Nexus doesn't have this to my knowledge. Its a limitation of CDMA and the chip used.

An SVDO chip set is needed. The galaxy nexus does not have that chip for the CDMA radio

Hello everyone, I recently purchased an Atrix off CL to use with the new straight talk BYOD plan. I know I can find a cheap laptop dock off CL or ebay or what not and I know it's limitations but my question is:

Since I have to change the data settings and all that, will the dock work without it knowing it has to tether or however it acts when connect to do the dock? I don't know the behavior of the dock fully or what it asks and I haven't seen anyone ask a question just like this. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

When you conect to the lapdock it checks for data plan (assuming your wifi is off)

If your wifi is on however it just starts normally and you can browse and do whatever you want.(on wifi only)

There is a way to get it to work with cellular data without having to get a bigger data plan but I haven't personally tried this method but I'll send you the link.

As for buying the lapdock heres a good site to go to :

[HTC Inspire 4G] azndan2:
Hello, I am trying to help my friend unbrick his phone.

All I know is that he was trying to use a one click root program and after several reboots the phone would no longer boot. It vibrates three times and flashes an orange light.

If I plug the phone into my computer, clockwork mod recovery with the words "ace hack kit" will show up. I tried wiping data, cachce, etc. and installing Android Revolution HD.

On my computer, if I type "adb devices" then it will show H13142452345 recovery.

If I type adb reboot bootloader the phone will vibrate three times and flash the orange light.

When the phone is plugged into my computer during the blinking orange light, then my computer says "device drivers not found for Qualcomm MSM"

I have also tried booting the phone with the sd card and SIM card removed.

Can anyone help?

Thank you.

**************SOLVED******************

The problem was that my volume buttons were broken. Once I destroyed the ribbon cable connecting the volume buttons to the motherboard, the phone booted up just fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
First, you shouldn't have used a root program that does not support your device. The only efficient rooting method to the moment is the Hack Kit. Anyway. Try reverting your phone to stock using the hack kit. You shouldn't have wiped data also as you have probably disabled USB debugging. If you can't revert it to stock with the hack kit, then your best choice is to hit the IRC channel and ask for help. The guys there know the business and might be able to help. Hope you.can sort the issue out.
[HTC Inspire 4G] azndan2:
Thanks. I'm not sure what program he was using to try to root the phone, my guess is that he was using the ace hack kit because the recovery on his phone says "ace hack kit" on it. Thanks for the tip on going to the IRC.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Hunt3r.j2:
You've bricked it, I believe the phone is now in Qualcomm's Diagnostic dload mode.

Confirmed, you're in Qualcomm's Diagnostic mode.

My suggestion is to try and find a PD98IMG file that flashes everything to stock, use a clean FAT32 sd card, put it in the phone, and then try to see if it'll flash it when you press volume-down and power. Apparently that should give you five vibrations, then after 5 minutes, press volume up to let it vibrate once, then spend about another 10 minutes before pressing volume up one more time.
[HTC Inspire 4G] azndan2:
Thanks for the reply Hunter. I've tried a variety of button combinations and methods to try to get it to boot into the five vibration green light mode. Unfortunately, no matter what button combination I press I can only get it into 3 vibration orange light mode.

[HTC Rezound] SmithO77:
I installed Setcpu everything was working great till I lowered the the minimum Frequency to around 700MHZ & I checked the "Set On Boot". It started to reboot the phone continuously I went back unchecked the "Set on Boot" which helped but when I go back in Setcpu it would reboot again.

I tried setting the frequency to the max & it would freeze & reboot quicker. I tried putting the Setcpu safemode in the root of the sd card but it didnt do anything.

I uninstalled SetCpu & updated the RUU on my Rezound it solved the reboots & it seemed everything was running as normal until when the phone was auto-syncing the phone froze for about 10-seconds then everything was back to normal. I heard about flashing the .zip file but I don't know how & I'm not installing Setcpu again to find out.

I'm wondering if the freeze had anything to do with the SetCpu. Everything is deleted once you update the RUU so I don't believe there should be any left over files from the SetCPU. I'm not sure if there on my sd card I was thinking of formatting the SD.

It would never freeze like that before I installed the new update but I never did have Setcpu installed once I got the phone. So I'm wondering if this problem lies with the Setcpu or the new RUU update for the Rezound which is 2.01.605.11?
[HTC Rezound] ο χάκερ:
Probably SetCPU, if you tweak the setting too much (or putting it in awkward settings) it can create errors.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Might have to do with which kernel you are running. Some kernels, such as dsb, play better with certain cpu apps. dsb likes Antutu CPU Master.
[HTC Rezound] richii0207:
Hmm could be something on the user side like kernel or perhaps if you installed a bad downloaded stock rom because I have have been using setcpu since day one with no errors on stock kernel on any rom. If you had a kernel installed prior it may still be installed which allows the cpu to ramp up to unstable speeds such as >1512 mhz.

Even if you were to try set an OC kernel to stable speeds, it will always ramp up to highest speeds, even higher than set. All in all, I would recommend to reflash stock kernel and made sure to flash boot.img which is most important. Hope this helps!
[HTC Rezound] ο χάκερ:
eh, dsb hasn't given me problems with SetCPU.

[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I only use setCPU, I have all the other ones too just about but they are all uninstalled because they usually just don't work as well, I use incredicontrol for undervolting, and that's it. Dsbs works with incredicontrol too... The kernel could be the issue and not the app but who knows :D
