So basically from what I read there, no way for free unlock and retain DRM.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Follow the instructions up to the point just before patching and tell me what it says please?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolaisugly:
if you unlock the bootloader NEVER UPDATE OVER THE AIR this will brick the phone.

The're 2 ways to unlock bootloader

1 via Sony web site but this only works for non branded phones,

2 is to pay if you use a service with setools this will unlock bootloader and make phone SIM free.

Xda member jinx13 offers this service contract him for more info.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
If SETool can unlock any handset I'm not sure why the S1Tool wouldn't, has anyone confirmed in the thread it doesn't work for the Arc S?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolaisugly:
Since my bootloader was opened the setools has been upgraded to setools2 which now covers more phones but not sure which.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navras1719:
I'm sorry but what are you refering to ? The process that involves opening the backcover under the battery ?

Some additional info, it's not carrier branded, not sim locked...and using the service code in the dialer says bootloader unlockable : yes
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Should have had this done already.

Ok I'll just try to unlock it however I can, the only way actually considering, from what I heard, that test point doesn't work for lt18. I'll take my chances and use the official way. Thank you all for helping me once again
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
I don't know why just don't try the S1Tool for reasons stated on my post before last. The worst that's going to happen is that it won't work.

Sent from my CM9'd Ray
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navras1719:
Will try that first

Before trying the S1tool with test point I kinda did some google searches first and I noticed that some people that attempted this couldn't get the phones to boot up again, so I'm not very eager to try it out just yet...need some more infos or at least a confirmation that it actually works for arc S (LT18) models.

Also, is the test point the same for LT15 and LT18 ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navras1719:
So I finally had the time to work on my gf's phone and I almost broke it I think :)

I installed the whole show, drivers etc, checked unknown sources and usb debugging, when I attempted to flash a LT18i firmware I always got a error, and after the phone would become a soft brick, wich I solved with the update service from sony. After flashing, the flashtool would always give an error at the end and would say opperation aborted. So safe to say it wasn't pleasant :)

Update service would flash the most recent version of ICS wich really but really makes the phone laggy, compared to build .62

So after this I found a generic US version of build .42 flashed that (it worked without any problem), rooted it using zerg rush, then updated OTA to build .62

So I didn't need to unlock bootloaders after all. But anyway, I got what I wanted, a .62 rooted build, and I most certainly won't be touching it any time soon again :)

Wanna thank you again for all the advices and links provided.

Is it becase of window 8 enterprise cause i was using it when its happens?????

im beginng you plz HELP?

im tired of flashing roms and waiting to charge and getting no result
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
I do greatly oppologize my friend as I would like to help if I can, but I really do no understand your problem. Maybe you can try to explain your problem again and maybe I and others can understand and try to help you out.
[HD2 General] Aslan Nourazar:
tnx im trying to say that when you hspl your phone or trying to flash MAGLDR on phone you puting usb cable in tri color mode ok

and then you starting.in the phone tri color changes in the black screen that there is a loade bar and HTC word on in it.my phone newly is not showing that HTC words on that level is that ok now?and my battery is not calibrating with any battery calibration app when i try to calibrate in 100% it says your battery succesfully calibrated with 3%or 5% or 9% but nothing changes again when i recharge my phone again when battery indicator reaches to 88% suddenly it jumps to 100%/

i just wanna know Windows 8 enterprise can cause to it?(losing HTC words or calibrating battery bcoz my os was win 8 enterprise when i encountered with this problem coz im dont have this problem before in win 7 or win XP

:rolleyes:
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
OK I can not be for sure because I have never flashed that WP8 ROM but it sounds like they just changed the graphic for the screen and it does not have the HTC in it. So I would say you no real worries there. Now as for your other problem with your battery charging it is probably a bug in the ROM cause I know the WP ROMs have always had battery issues of all kinds. It could be your battery too but the only way to test your battery and see if it is the ROM is to flash to stock Windows Mobile and see if you still have the problem. Hope this helps man.
[HD2 General] Aslan Nourazar:
thank you my friend for answering me but i didnt flashed wp8 on phone my pc os was microsoft windows 8 enterprise and i flashed a nand android costum rom on phone (Typhoon CM7 Android 2.3.7 v3.8.8)im not using wp and wm i dont like them they are use less to me.and this issue that im talking about(not showing HTC Words on loader bar in black screen in phone when flashing MGLDR Or Hspl Or Task29) happened when i was in windows 8 enterprise running os on my pc that i pluged usb cable in usb port and when i was trying to hspl the phone i saw HTC words lost in phone but loader bar is fine loding well and thank to god phone is not bricked and stilll works preety good and battery issue happened after this problem(losing HTC WORDS) so when im calibrating with (battery calibration app from market)it says succesfully calibrated by 3% but nothing changes(when phone indicator reches to 88% suddenly jumps to 100% and im not able to use that 12%).now im able to flash any roms nand and sd android it works well but battery wonts calibrats .

[HD2 General] Zejsters:
Bro Using Windows 8 isn't the problem i guess...

Because i also use Windows 8 on my PC..

Btw Are You Using The latest HSPL4??

And If Yes..

Try Going Back To WinMo 6.5..

Remove The HSPL..

And Then Try Again Flashing HSPL 4...

Good Luck... :victory:
[HD2 General] hellrokr:
try with a different battery once if you have. i've seen battery behaving weirdly when its about to die.

I've personally never calibrated a battery, and it always has given me true batery life. So I don't think you need to calibrate it.

Try with a different battery once and post your results.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Sorry again for misunderstanding you, I know that member Zejsters said it should not be Windows 8 causing the problem because they use Windows 8. But I disagree, you said that both of your problems did not happen until you switched to Windows 8. Plus it is much descussion of several things not working correctly on Windows 8 that worked fine on Windows 7. And I am not just talinkg about stuff for the HD2 but all kinds of programs.
[HD2 General] Aslan Nourazar:
no my battery life is so well i charged it fully yesterday and used a lil bit internet and chatting and recording taking pics and games but to day now it reaches to 9%

my issue is to deleting batterystat.bin and recalibrating battery is not happening with apps.cause im not able to use that 12% it charges only 88% and then shows 100%with same rom i calibrated this battery and work fine led turns to green but it still charge till reaches to 100%.now after this issue i saied apps wont calibrate it says could not calibrate or you calibrate it before after deleting app and re installing it it say your battery succesfully calibrated but.... same things again 88% only

[Miscellaneous Android Development] romulocarlos:
Hi.

Sorry if I'm posting something wrong / old or already answered, but I don't find anything about my situation.

I have a Xperia X8 with custom ROM, GingerDX. Now I'm moving to a new phone, and it don't have any type of custom rom, Cyanogen support, or even a device near to it, to try porting a ROM.

Following this guide, I cook a ROM to suit my needs.

But, obviously, some nice features from GingerDX/Cyanogen are missing. I don't wanna go to ICS, I just wanna some features and a very clean and small ROM.

So, I'm asking where I can get information about porting (or create) specific features from GingerDX/Cyanogen to my device. Not a full ROM, only some of these features are:

Fast copy and paste

Keyboard lights control

Number of apps in recent list

Long press menu to open a search

Long press back to kill an app

Music control even with phone locked (next song / previous song by holding volume keys)

Shutdown menu (restart, recovery, etc)

Notification power widget

Clock to show 00:00 instead 00h00 (is a 'h' in the middle)

Contacts to show format number 0000-0000 instead 00-000-000

Compact carrier label

Center clock on lockscreen

Notification focus

Music volume not attenuated by notifications

And some others I don't remember. I know, will be a hard job, but I'm not affraid to learn. If I made my own custom ROM, I beliave I can install these features... I just must have a start point, and some sugestions from devs to do this (i.e: remove unnecessary resources like languages, images inside apks, HDPI and LDPI images and codes). Maybe if you point this for me, other users can use the same to install these features on their phones without Cyanogen support.

Or another strategy to make a good custom ROM, even without Cyanogen offical support...

Thanks a lot!!

but nothing happens !

i'm going crazy, i'm so shure it's a easy thing but it just doesn't work for me hahaha ::silly:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Antecz:
It doesn't work, cause the guide is for phones with hardware buttons (2011 Xperias), You should hold Volume Down button while connecting yours phone - I'm writing it with my U already ICSed ;)

And btw, if you are getting problems immediately after flashtool starts doing its job (especially during the flashing of partition-image.sin), open ftf with WinRAR etc. and delete partition-image.sin - it's not necessary for SW to work and probably it will solve all of your problems ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rapier07:
Hi. When it asks to connect the phone, switch your phone off, press the volume down (-) button and connect the usb cable. Also be sure to install the flashtool drivers from the flashtool installation directory first :)

I don't see a thread about this in our forums. I think we need a thread to upload the latest versions of svoice so we can use it while running custom ROMs. I would put a download link but I need to put it in my drop box first. I'm busy at the moment of posting this though and only have a few seconds. So it would be helpful for someone to post the latest version.

I agree 100%. I pulled the app from a ROM and tried to put install it into mine, and even messed with the permissions but cannot get it to speak back to me. Fully functional otherwise, just no voice.

I did a nandroid of my stock SGS III ROM but I can't find a way to pull the apk from it. Titanium says there is no data in the cwm backup. But there is. Oh well, I can live without it, or at least until someone else figures it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] abissel22:
Okay. I found the initial release s voice (Called voicetalk.apk) on the internet. Install this as a regular apk if you want (it works fine for me like that but a little buggy.) I've heard it works better if installed as a system app though. Let me know if its still buggy as a system app and I'll lull a jellybean version of this apk from an official jellybean toutchwiz rom if it doesn't work right.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bias_hjorth:
Hi forum

I'm loving browsing the web with this tablet but so far every browser I've tried besides the Opera Browser zooms into the content and cuts away almost any background leaving all pictures blurry and fussy looking, especially on sites made for a lower resolution than the tablets own resolution.

Changeing zoom level, text size or auto resize does not fix the issue as this only changes text and not images. Nor does user agent to desktop.

The only browser that displays the content exactly as my computer is the Opera Browser on which all webpages looks just right as well as all images displayed tack sharp eg. 600px images is in fact 600px and not 1280px.

Is there a setting I've missed on this tablet or can you recommend another browser like the Opera. I'm loving the interface on the Dolphin Beta but it's the same issue.
