Security Error

I use Xperia Ray 4.0.4(.587, Stock ROM, Rooted, Locked Bootloader). I never tried to Unlock my Bootloader but i got error when i try to open TrackID. Today i flash ThilinaC walkman ICS U4 mod by using CWM as your instruction but after flashing i get same error on TrackID.

So i get Security Error on Download Music Info.

I have no idea why happen this....

Sorry for my Bad English.

Thanks in advance..

What if im going to unlock my bootloader again? Still working working?

Sent from my WT19i
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] shyam4ever:
Why you need to unlock the boot loader? I have stock firmware .587 with root privilege and everything is working fine. You only need unlocked when you use custom karnel. If again unlock the bootloader then it will stop working again because stock Track Id application not works with unlocked bootloader.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] botski:
I got it now mate, so im stick with locked bl to work download music info.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DomusX10:
with official unlocked bootloader, track id works, music info don't. It's because with official method lost DRM privilege.

Then, users like me that need unlock bootloader for use mod ROM like that I use, and mod kernel, for the moment this problem not solved yet.

I've try to relock bootloader but, I need unlocked bootloader for use my rom...then, the problem persist. Credential manager, track id are present on my ROM, but music info don't work.

Then, conclude thinking that is a small price to pay.

If you come to understand "what flash and where" to get back the DRM working, I'll be happy...thanks anyway for sharing this solution.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] webvitek:
RE:

Flash .ftf and unlock bootloader via testpoint - then you can flash the custom kernel.

That method saves your DRM keys and warrianty. Stock Track ID and Music Download should be work after that.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DomusX10:
I know test point method, but it's very dangerous...and the guarantee is lost however, or not?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] TheRisingDragon:
dead

dead phone after flash with a custom kernel :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kratellismorru:
Confirmed Working

Ok, Before I Was Able To Test This, I was on official unlock bootloader, so to proceed, I did

1. Flash Stock ROM (Including Kernel, Exclude TA) using Flashtool

2. Flash The Xperia_Relock,ftf (Unchecked Everything)

3. Restore Using s1Tool

- (To know if your bootloader locked, Identify your phone in s1Tool, then check this line

RUNNING S1_LOADER VER RXXXXX

IF the R in your loader version is small, then your bootloader is unlocked, else it is locked.

-Download music info confirmed working after following these steps.

-I will post a screenshot later (I have 2000 Songs, I think the preparing window will take a while)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ™ God ™:
Can you detail it? RESTORE USING S1TOOL??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kratellismorru:
Instructions

oh, so I guess you understand my first two instructions then,

the third one, Restore Using s1Tool,

After the first two steps,

1. Make sure your phone is turned off

2. Run s1Tool

3. Click Restore (Right Side)

4. Connect your phone to your computer in flash mode

5. Done

- If you see "RESTORED" then you have succesfully locked your bootloader

- Else, check the loader Version for details, because I had a hard time figuring it out how to lock the bootloader again ;)

EDIT : Screenshot Included
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ™ God ™:
so you will get drm back?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kratellismorru:
Answer Unknown

I do not know what exactly happens, but the old TrackID and Download music info (Walkman) now works for me with no hassle at all,

But for me, either the DRM is back or not, I am happy with the results of this method. :laugh:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Darkfunnyguy:
Does the smartphone need to be rooted in order to install the CWM please?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Darkfunnyguy:
Can you tell how to flash the ThilinaC walkman ICS U4 mod in CWM step by step please?

I have copied the ThilinaC walkman ICS U4 mod zip file to my external card too.

I relock my Xperia phone and installed new firmware via sony pc companion but the problem is I lose the CWM in order to flash the ThilinaC walkman ICS U4 mod so how is this done step by step please?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xhanafix:
@darkfunnyguy heres the step

1.root your phone

2.Install x-parts from playstore

3.ull eventually have cwm

Have fun with custom rom or moded accessories for locked bootloader
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kratellismorru:
UPDATE

Ok, so I think i made some new progress with this method of fixing download music info,

I unlocked my bootloader again using test point method, and installed Zelly Cream Rom from gaga.u20

Followed the instructions again(first post), except the second one (Pranav110089's walkman). instead I used Till-Kruspe's walkman port and tried the tests to see if drm is BACK again on the phone

old TrackID - Working

Edit Music Info - (NEW Error - Unsupported Software Version - No Album Art Found)

Download Music Info - To Be Tested...

I'm not sure how to fix the Edit Music Info Error, but it seems that If the second error will be fixed, the Download Music Info will work.

EDIT : Finally made it to work!

FYI : I have unlocked my bootloader using the official method, then relocked it, and unlocked it again using Test Point

Operations Made :

1. Install ThilinaC Walkman (old TrackId Working)

2. Flashed Till-Kruspe's Walkman (Walkman FC)

3. replaced SemcMusic.apk Manually from Till-Kruspe Walkman (replace, then reboot)

4. Took SemcMetaDataCleanup.apk from Pranav110089 Walkman and placed it on System/app (replace then reboot)

5. Done

how can i make it work with mod walkman player? non xperia device.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bejunk:
annoying....

hello dear solution-provider :D (dev),

there is one thing thats annoying me:

everytime i have get the music info & covers its all good :good: BUT if i restore a backup, or flash the rom new / or whole new rom,

music info and covers are lost :crying: ... @ now I'm using this solution: get the info and cover by sony's musicinfo app-->then i go to id3tag editor (from play) there u search the track and u have to edit it(write in infos?!),and save it , while the semcmetadatcleanup writes the infos to [somwhere]:confused::confused:

so my question is: why semcmetadata cleanup dont wirte the infos directly into mp3-file also the cover??? missing permissions?

is there a way to mod the apk to do this??

2nd thing: i seems as semcmetadatclenup is confused when there are more than 1 track with no album name (like music[b'cuz its on ur music folder on sd:)])..so if u get the album art, save, get another album art for 2nd track which is also with no album name in id3-tag (so album is shown as music), save, the previos track gets also this album art (and all other tracks in 'music'-album.. )....

i think semcmetadataclenup is confused by tracks with same or no album description, but the annoyingest thing is that it dont save the file info's directly to the file..:crying:

hope somebody have a solution, and thanks for reading..

peace, bejunk

I've had this phone for 1.5 months now flashing daily never had any problems until three days ago my battery charges so slow that I can't keep my phone charged it's even draining while I have it on the charger! I know one ONE time I couldn't find my Samsung wall adapter so I used my iPad charger but the voltage is the same and its at 2amps so it can't be the culprit can it?? :( any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Oh BTW I wiped data, both cache, /system, fresh flash, fix perm., baterry stats, all of the above and still dies slowly on the charger... maybe I need another cable? Iddk :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BubZX:
I noticed the same thing after I wiped battery stats. I reboot while charging fixed it rite up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lt.anthonydelgado:
I'll see what happens and report back
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lt.anthonydelgado:
Ahhh still draining :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nabbed:
I think I charged my battery once or twice with a nexus 7 charger (2 amps). I didn't explode or anything.

Go to a sprint store and ask nicely to test their own battery. See if maybe your battery died (don't discharge this type of batteries below 10 or so %, that damages them over time and the capacity is reduced).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lt.anthonydelgado:
Also thought I should mention I have all sync support off..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lt.anthonydelgado:
When you say test their battery do you mean just to check if it charges? Maybe I should go with my charger and all? But honestly I can't find my s3 wall adapter I'm using my Epic 4g Touch adapter lol!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lt.anthonydelgado:
I read somewhere a LONG time ago that sprint would send new batteries to customers can anyone confirm??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Sprint will give u one at the store under warranty. Samsung will ship you one, even out of warranty, as they warranty the batteries for 18months vs the 12 for the device itself. Or so said the guy at Samsung that sent me mine for my E4GT last week

And haha how stupid of me not to realise that lol thanks mate :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Gin2JB is just gingerbread themed to look like Jellybean. It works well and gaming is smooth although I do experience bad lag on some games such as the amazing Spider-Man. Not sure how it compares to NXT as I've not used it.

Regarding link2SD, I got everything linked eventually by persisting but then saw that my 1.5GB partition was somehow full which I didn't understand. I don't get how apps could take up over 1.5GB so I decided to move everything back onto the SD card and try linking them again. Don't really know what I was thinking. This led to the phone displaying and having less than 1mb internal storage which meant I could barely do anything. I moved 2apps to the SD card from settings to free up some memory but I don't know why it did that as I already moved them to SD using link2SD.

Anyways, my problem currently is why my whole 1.5GB is being filled up? Why is it taking that much storage?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzNTypeR:
Less than 1GB partion? Oh Dear.. My partion's 2.5GB and its fine. Im running a 32gb SD though and my phone decided to move all of my apps back to internal storage.. Sigh. And I dont think its booting up anymore. >.<
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
I had a 2GB partition on my 32GB SD but this 64GB card is causing problems without a partition.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Is it normal for a 1.5GB partition to be filled up using only link2sd?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzNTypeR:
Well, My partitions 2.5GB with only 0.9GB space left. So I think ive used 1.6GB alone. >.< I only have 404 apps altogether according to Link2SD (Including System Crap)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Thanks for the reply. Looks like i need to make my partition bigger then.

On a slightly related note, why isn't TB restoring my missing apps with data? It either fails or says the batch restore is finished yet i have nothing. I just need tetris and bruce lee as they can't be had from the play store

I was recently on TDJ's Darkside Rom. I decided to flash the Infamous Resurrection. I followed the instructions Wipe Flash etc. However when I rebooted almost all of my apps are still there and then they start force closing like CRAAAAZY. I know I can go and "fix permissions" however I want a FULL CLEAN INSTALL. The other rom was giving me weird issues and I am ready for something else. I use TWRP. What's up? How can I do a system wipe and cache wipe and still have most of my apps? This doesn't seem right. How can I fix this? Thanks sincerely for any help given .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] arcblade851:
You need to write your data, or "factory reset", because your apps and stuff are kept in the data partition, not the system partition. Just do the factory reset, wipe system, cache, and dalvik, and then flash again.

You could disable sync in settings. This app may be of some use. If your device is rooted, you can use a root uninstaller app (as mentioned) to remove it (or you could simply delete it from /system/app/ - root still required.)

Hello Members

Where can I buy this adapter (photo attached) other than ebay, in the UK.

Will it work correctly with my Note 2, as I'm going to use it to run an external USB DAC convertor, and need the extra USB power plug to power the phone and the DAC.

Failing that can, I get one made? Or make it myself from best quality audio grade USB cable and connectors?

If it's possible to make it, is there a specific wiring diagram for this OTG adapter + USB power plug that works for current Samsung smartphones?

Any help, or links to traders, and directions would be great.

Regards
