[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
hey guys, this is my first time i would say i bricked my phone. i need someone to help me my phone has been in 'coma' for nearly 2 days now.

so this happened when i try to apply this mod http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1306044 and after i carelessly copied framework-res.apk to system/framework using root explorer without setting the correct permissions, my phone automatically shuts off and try to restart but it failed, it stucked on the big sony ericsson logo and 'sony ericsson' text.

i have pull out the battery hundred times and try to reboot my phone normally but it didnt worked it still stucked on the sony ericsson logo.

so can anyone help me please... :(:(

what tools/application should i get to fix this?

first of all, i dont want to wipe/lose/factory reset my phone memory data because that would make my phone contacts gone which i never ever want to happen. so please is it possible to backup my contacts somewhere else if wiping is the answer at least??

okay i took a lot of time to type this and hoping someone give me an answer :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] YBS14881:
Hi, what is your model no? and you rooted it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
i use sk17i mini pro as mentioned above and yes it is obviously rooted
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Congratulations, you have felt the power of customizing Android for the first :D

Actually, one way to fix this now, is to get back to fully stock firmware.

The second way would be to unlock bootloader, install a custom kernel, enter recovery and use Fix Permissions option. Unfortunately, not all Recoveries have this, only some versions of ClockworkMod Recovery. I have used many kernels on my LWW and only some of these included this option and I can't remember which one had, which not.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
actually, i have been in android customization for so long already when im still using my sold lg optimus one a year ago. i have flash a custom roms and kernels on that phone a lot of times so im not new on android customization at all.

i stayed away from customizing my sony ericsson phone cause its a bit different and hard here espeially when it comes to unlocking bootloader and that stuff :D

back to the real topic, so what tools do i need to get back to fully new stock firmware, remember, i cant boot my phone.

and how about my contacts, messages, will it be gone? omg i dont want it to be gone. please help me to make my phone boot normally without nothing lose especially my contacts

someone help me asap please, i feel bad for my phone just sitting there cant boot and cant do anything. its been 2 days i didnt use my phone!! :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
If contacts is too important for you and you have no backups, then go for the 2nd way - Unlock bootloader and install a custom kernel, which offers the Fix Permissions option.

I will check the Update Service, if Repair option will erase user data or not, currently updating my phone.

EDIT: Yes, removes all data.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
okay okay i got a good news, i got my contacts backup month ago using smscontactsbackup app.

alright now, what if contacts is not important anymore and what is the 1st way?

btw how about flashtool? can i flash a new stock rom without wiping data, i think theres an option for that. but im not sure if its possible to use flashtool while my phone is off
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
If you can access flashmode, then your okay. Just flash stock firmware.

Will check Flashtool option.

Yep, you're correct, Flashtool has option to not wipe user data.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
nice. btw can you tell me step by step how to access flashmode using flashtool to flash a fresh stock rom?

i havent use it in a long time.

most importantly, can i use flashtool while my phone is off??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Flashmode - Turn off phone, connect USB cable to your computer, hold down Volume DOWN button and connect USB cable to your phone.

Flashtool guide is in my tutorial.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
i cant find your tutorial. link?

this will do? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928343

or maybe i should try what this guy says?

"Follow this guide External rooting guide but in steps 5 and 12 instead of "rootxperia.zip" use "mini_mod_v1.8.zip". Once you have phone fully booted I suggest to install CWM recovery mode (you probably don't have it now) - CWM installation file - run install-cwm1.cmd and follow the onscreen instructions. Then you will be able to enter CWM recovery via volume down button during booting."

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
i followed your method. i flashed a stock firmware using flashtool via flashmode it says flashing completed. and now i want to boot my phone. it still stucked on the green se logo and 'sony ericsson' text. darn :(

edit: holy ****! my phone is now booted normally and none of my stuffs is gone :)

thanks so much for helping.

but root is gone. that shouldnt be a problem. thanks again
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Nouatik:
You should probably get a backup app and backup your stuff or either root again and install CWM and backup that way:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] UchihaDareNial:
Well he forgot to tell you that the first boot after every new 'fresh' flash required a little time for the phone to boot because it create cache at the boot animation...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] maso321:
which guide did you use i i have u20 model and mine is stuck on the white sony screen i cant boot into flash mode cause the phone turns on as soon as i plug it in to the comp i just baught this phone i wasnt even gonna touch it but it only has 2.1 and i cant install anything i have no sleep so i need to know if this neo tutorial will unlock my phone 4 hrs and still on the screen its prolly gonna die soon

plz help me thanks in advance gents
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] loCe45:
Actually, i think you could've salvaged your phone without the need of flashing it... If you had access to CWM, you could've put framework file into zip file and flash it with CWM. It helped me once when i got stuck in bootloop after failed installation of a mod :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Izzy Stinson:
its very easy to recover your phone if you got bootloop or stuck at sony ericsson logo. dont sweat.

first of all you need a stock .ftf firmware downloaded. any .ftf stock firmware .58/62/42 or whatever as long as it is stock.

then download and install flashtool http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351309

then put your downloaded .ftf firmware at c:/program files/flashtool/firmwares/"your downloaded .ftf firmware"

then open flashtool and click on the lightning icon. and choose flashmode.

then press volume down button, while you do that connect your phone to pc using usb then flash the firmwares. then boom your phone back to life

Forgive me if this has already been mentioned but I just read this,

The 900 also comes pre-loaded with the Tango version of the Windows Phone operating system, which offers a number of tweaks designed to improve the speed performance of the system, although the Lumia 800 is hardly slow either.

[Nokia Lumia 900] 92GTA:
Ummm, my white 900 does NOT have Tango, even after the Zune update.

Perhaps they are updating to Tango prior to release in your country? I hope that means the update will be very soon for the rest of us.

I am going through mic issues.

I had a mic problem with my first S3 during phone calls. I couldn't do anything about it everyone was saying they couldn't hear me.

(The sim I am using is an British UK O2 micro simcard that I used in a iphone 4, cheap samsung, and samsung S2 previously with no problems at all.)

I then returned the phone to the T-mobile shop retailers, they said it was rare and not a common fault.

My new one is doing the

exact same thing

, I didn't update it nor is there a new update.

Can someone please help as I am lost. Thank you.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhruvkataria:
I thought I was the only one facing the issue :) . The handsfree using the wired headset is completely faulty and the other party can hardly hear you . However sometime it works.

I tried some options ..

1. Dont insert the wired headset in the middle of the call it wont work.

2. Insert the wired headset and then dial the number - this seems to work most of the times

3. Accepting the call while the wired headset is inserted - this seems to work.

Not sure what the solution is - anyone able to resolve it ?

I have same issue. Other party doesn't hear me most of the times clearly. They say that I sound like i'm using speaker mode and I'm walking in the room with bucket in my head.

I used some kind of phonecall recording app and from there I can hear myself quite clearly. Maybe it is related to service provider?

Now switched to gsm mode only to see does it make difference.

microphooooone hole

I have a solution guys. Use left hand when phone call or grab it just for upper part. You are covering small hole for microphone.

I have like 1phone/year and never happened to me that i cover microphone hole when calling. With this one I have to stay focused to dont cover.... Its getting better but samsung engineers terribly overlooked this.

I phone like 4-5 hours per day, so i have habit to let phone just touch my hand and pretty much dont hold it at all. But when you hold it right hand your below thumb area of hand get to cover microphone hole....

and this is when someone else looses my voice over phone....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
There is a microphone at the bottom and one at the top. How are you holding your phone? No matter what I do, I can't cover them up during a call.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedge:
Same here, cannot uncheck 'noise cancellation'

Wired headset only works when call made first, then audio plug inserted, even with BT disabled.

Multiple headsets mics not working that are known good headsets tested on other phones.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javm:
I have played with recording a bit lately (due to another issue of noise in audio recording) and I found that the upper microphone is disabled during a call from some reason. It is used in other video/audio recording though.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ishaycc:
if I'm not mistaken the upper mic is working solo when ur on speaker during a call.

when u use the ear peace the buttom one is the main one and the upper one is for noise cancelation.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javm:
I only tried on speaker and the upper mic was definitely not catching anything - if I placed my hand over the bottom one, there was no sound from my side, even when I was talking directly to the upper mic.

Not sure whether it is a feature or a bug (there were some reports that the mics are switched by mistake on the software level) but if it is a feature then it is rather unfortunate one as it is quite common to hold the phone at its bottom.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eseregin:
You right, thats the reason for upper microphone - do compare signals from lower ant top, and eliminates noise (that coming more from top) from voice (that coming much more from low)

Other reason probably is stereo sound when making video...

PS

Comon guys, it is almost impossible to hide microphone with hand, left or right - does not matter. You should have palm from soft material as balloon to hide it 8-) Otherwise it is hardly possible by mistake, even if you try it is hard to do it

Is there a way to make the capacitive touch buttons auto dim with the display controlled by the light sensor?
[LG Optimus 2x] tablighs:
Good question... never thought of that..

So far for what I know there's none such app. but I think its just a matter of an app that can read the light sensor and adjust touch light accordingly. And it has to be o2x specific app.
[LG Optimus 2x] grimmyrippy:
Search 'optimus 2x touch key lights or touch key light' on market

http://waveboy2u.wordpress.com/2012...ngerbread-and-android-4-0-ice-cream-sandwich/

upgrading depends on what rom you want to use and if you are rooted or not?

your third part is not really a question by I guess you mean does it work? and the answer is yes they should work fine.

Benefits well you get all the new changes, downside is as there is no offical release most of the roms are still buggy

OP, what are your speeds? Sounds like you're falling for some serious marketing speak. The T-Mobile branded SGSII has 42mbps HSPA+ radio compared to the 21mbps HSPA+ radio in the Galaxy Nexus. Real-world speeds will be a bit lower, that's just how it is.

Also, the Galaxy Nexus doesn't have a "4G" icon. When its connected to HSPA+ you'll see an "H" icon. It'll be connected to the exact same network. Its just an icon.

I understand that. I just though the gnex was 42mbps hspa. I'm getting 3-6 mbps real world whereas before I was getting 9-15
