[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Guntram:
Hello together!

I can't post in the Development Section, that's why I ask here (related to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1916419).

I'm on Linux 12.04 and added /etc/udev/rules.d/80-flashtool.rules:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0fce", SYSFS{idProduct}=="*", MODE="0777"

Starting as normal user, drag-dropping the downloaded file (DL via torrent), gave countless red alerts with:

So I ran

sudo ./FlashTool

and DragDropped the .ftf, excluded baseband and waited for the resquest to put the device into flash-mode, which I did (green LED).

Then the error occurs (complete flashtool log follows):

Any ideas, what this is about? Does "checking header" refer to the tft or to my phone?

It's a german, non-branded U25i, successfully unlocked with flashtool (x10flasher_lib/fastboot.linux).

Maybe the file is corrupted? Can someone send me the HASH of a working file?

Thanks for help,

Guntram

"Check drivers" yielded:

but I assume, the driver thing is only Windows-related. Am I right?

[edith]

Ok...it seems not to be ROM-related. I tried the "relock"-ftf, which failed the same way...

Any hint on what might cause these problems?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Guntram:
I tried it now on another computer (Ubuntu 11.10 64bit, this time) and I do get the same error!

Is there somebody out there, who can help?

Did I miss to setup something on the phone (USB-Debugging is turned on)?

same here, xperia u, linux mint based on ubuntu 12.04
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] uao:
where is the problem

hi, sadly using windows there are no problems. and I would love to not use windows for it.

it is related with flashtool and ubuntu 12.04.

flashtool was fine with my x10 mini pro and linux, but it is not working with xperia u. also the mtp is a pain.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Guntram:
Virtual Box Windows under Linux works like a charme :(.

So the phone is "nicely" connected, but the flashtool doesn't work properly :(.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] uao:
Updated flashtool to linux version 0.9.9.0 and now it works great
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doctor_droid:
Are u entering flashmode by pressing volume down and power key??

If yes then its wrong

Download official ics ftf from development section of ur xperia

Download flashtool

Install flashtool

Go to c/flashtool/drivers

Install drivers for ur xperia

Now switch of ur phone keep it aside

Go to flashtool

Click thunder icon

Select flashmode

Select ftf

Check no final verification

Check exclude ta

Click flash\start

Now it will ask u to connect ur phone in flashmode

Press the volume down button, keep it pressed and connect to usb

U r done wait for flashing
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Smiff2:
error flashing. aborted.

think i have same problem as OP.

using Mint11 (ubuntu 11.10 64bit based) and flashtool 0.9.8 as i can't understand how to get libusbx working for flashtool 0.9.9

btw is disabling final verification dangerous?

i'll have to try virtualbox i guess, scared of this as more to go wrong with usb access.

update: followed this guide

(stupidly i can't include links, but its on ubuntu forum)

ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2084266

installed libusbx on a laptop (running Mint 14 KDE btw, needed gcc 32bit libs to compile it), flashtool 0.9.9 worked. yay.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axdavies:
My Nexus 7 was updated a couple of minutes ago (through the OTA) and after it was complete I headed to Google Play online (on my computer) and my Nexus 7 wasn't listed as a device. I am able to read emails, install apps etc. on my Nexus 7 but it just doesn't show up on my devices. Any ideas or how to fix this? Thanks..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve1time:
I had the same problem I sorted it by first trying to see if I could log into Google talk, it failed so then I went to accounts and removed my Google account from the device then I rebooted and added the the account again then I was able to log in as normal hope this helps ya.

To stop my Google Play from stopping whenever I tried to open it, I had to remove the Play apk and odex from /system/app and replace with the apk I extracted from the full 4.1.2 system.img.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logic_:
Sounds like you removed from your device from Google Play, as many did before you, by clearing Google framework. Just waiting a bit would've fixed it just as well. Aside from not seeing your device, your emails aren't pushed to it either for a while, it only does a man refresh when you open it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelvinator:
Hi, anyone knows how to push apk app taken out from system into our note 2?

I found the lost screen recorder apk in one of the system dump.zip after extracting it, I tried moving it into system/app and changing permission and installing is still not successful!

Am I doing it wrong? How then will be the right way to do it? please advise? Thx in advance... Really love to have screen recorder function as advertised by samsung
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Normally you would push to /system/app make sure permissions were correct and then reboot, you do not need to 'install' it.

but you might need an ODEX file as well as the APK
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelvinator:
Reboot

Hi, ok so just place the apk plus it's odex files in system/app , change permission and reboot it will be install correctly? :laugh:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelvinator:
Hi, I did just as you mentioned.. Reboot still screen recorder remains not install tried to install it then ... No luck still...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
its highly likely that there are other files that the apk needs in order to work, can you upload the files you have?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itayab:
Hi,

I have Galaxy S i9000 (SGH), running version: 3.0.17 Semaphore ICS 1.2.6 stratosk@semaphore #195, with AOKP M6 3.0 (Android 4.0.4).

I'm unable to use the phone - its getting shut down automatically every few mins. I can only turn it on if I take the battery out.

I've also tried to use a different battery - same issue..

I'm afraid that I won't be able to change the kernel since the phone is unable to stay turned on for more than 5 minutes... (Please note that when the phone is turned on, the "SAMSUNG" logo is shown, and then after a few seconds the screen turns black for a second - and then the Samsung logo is shown again.)

** However I AM able to enter into the 'Recovery Mode' and install a new file if needed.

Any suggestions on this issue?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
If your phone is a Vibrant SGH T959, best use this forum

you can get a rescue kit from My Android Collections and or a solution from My Android Solutions

But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.

There's a tutorial for this feature in the motion settings, you're not actually supposed to touch the screen to trigger it as it works using the proximity sensor.

I see a few sec delay after i cover my hand over a phone and screen info , is it normal ?cause i have custom Rom. In the tutorials section when i cover my hand screen goes on without delay

[HTC Desire S] deltateam:

[HTC Desire S] djomla43:
Hope u boot the rom lol you r wlcm :D
[HTC Desire S] vanogrid:
Hi, deltateam

I just finished S-OFF-ing my Desire S, HBOOT 2.00.0002. It took me 3 days for all the reading, searching, trying and failing, etc. :D So I think this might be of use for you.

The link for ENG HBOOT in the method you're linking to in the first post, is outdated. So here's what I have done:

I used this method. But here is some additional info.

After completing step 8 I found that I can't root it with SuperOneClick, so I S-OFFed it with Revolutionary first. After doing this you should have a S-OFFed device with HBOOT 0.98.0000 (or 0002, depending on which RUU you chose to downgrade to).

You can now successfully root it with SuperOneClick. Do NOT restart your phone. Restarting it in Recovery is not needed.

The next step links to the same method you linked to in the first post but as I said, the link there is outdated. So I found this post. It's basically the same thing but it has ENG HBOOT attached to it and it's the same as the one from zumodrive - I compared the md5sums. :cyclops:

After completing step 10 and restarting to bootloader you should now see that you have S-OFFed ENG HBOOT 2.00.002. You may want to flash the recovery again as (most likely) Revolutionary flashed its own recovery.

Also, you can still boot the old ROM, which you used for the HBOOT downgrade but of course you should flash new ROM soon. You may also update the RADIO to more recent one as the old RUU downgraded it and the Fallout ROM doesn't have a radio included.

Good luck with the ROM and I hope this helped ;)
[HTC Desire S] deltateam:
@seashady thks

it is very nice tutorial ;)

when i flash my phone again

the new radio is still up date, i dont have to install it again?
[HTC Desire S] vanogrid:
No, you don't. It will be still up to date. :)
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
Ah, you mean after flashing a new ROM... OK, misunderstood the first time I read the question.
[HTC Desire S] deltateam:
thks
[HTC Desire S] vanogrid:
Sorry for the misunderstanding. Yes, this is what I meant - an official RUU Rom will change the RADIO but if you update it after that and flash a new custom Rom, it will stay unaffected (i.e. "updated").
[HTC Desire S] Aleeksandar85:

Hi.

Does anyone know how to disable this nerve-wrecking thing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] srynoname:
I am wondering if there is anyone interested in bringing transparent "SD-card" encryption to the Galaxy Nexus. On Android 4 there's already encryption for the data partition, also the Galaxy Nexus is using MTP for mounting the "SD-Card" on Windows. So using an encrypted "SD-card" on Windows or somewhere else shouldn't be a problem, as transparent encryption shouldn't affect MTP? So this would lead to the following ideas / requirements:

1) We need an option to disable mounting of the internal "SD-card" when an USB connection is established or else everyone can simply read the content, as the encryption is transparent.

2) Encrypt the "SD-Card" in a transparent way, mount it on boot.There are already implementations of transparent encryption, e.g. LUKS Manager. Use the data partition (encrypted by Android's built in encryption) to store a mount script that contains the password to mount the encrypted "SD-card"

3) Optional: Split the "SD-card" in two partitions, leave one unencrypted so we still have a partition we can use to store backups done during recovery etc.

Anyone interested in doing this?

Did anyone receive OTA update this morning? I woke up at 5 in the morning and saw I had update on my S3.. I try to upgrade it but it failed because my phone is rooted and it gave me error something with the key on the CWM.

Let me know if someone else had similar update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ycats:
I think it's LI3..........it's been appearing on many phones for the past week.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
The only OTA that is being pushed out right now is LI3. If you are stock rooted you will not be able to accept it if you have a custom recovery. If you do accept it (with a stock recovery) you will lose root.

To manually apply the update to a stock rooted phone (and maintain root) follow the procedure posted here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] secondskin:
I applied it and I'm stock rooted with custom recovery and I did not loose root.

I simply lost my custom recovery which was easily fixable by reflashing it.

I would like to know what update includes though. Is it just the security issue mentioned a few weeks ago about internet links being able to reset your phone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
It has been discussed many many times on many many new threads... you can find more info here, that security issue was mas hysteria and Samsung issued a official note that there phones have been patched for quite some time now.
