I think flashtool might work...just download the ftf file and flash it using flashtool.

but i have 4.1.B.0.587 kernel.

in this tutorial is only 4.1.B.0.431 Stock Firmware.

i'm downloading 4.1.B.0.587 Stock Firmware now,so, i need only flash this FW and that's it or i have to flash kernel again?

Please help my guys!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] abcdjdj:
You have to flash the entire ftf file of .587 just as you would flash the .431 ftf. No changes at all. Also, kernel does not contain the system folder(ROM) but contains only the ramdisk and zImage binary. The system.sin file in your ftf package actually contains the "system" folder. Anyway, it is just safer to flash the entire package. Good luck!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] arvarobert:
that means,i need to flash first the kernel and then the FW,correct?

but my phone has already the kernel inside,i can turn phone on but stocked on bootlogo and have to remove battery.

:confused:

So...:crying:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] predatOr:
Just flash the ftf :banghead:and your phone will be fine
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Abhinav1997:
Just flash the ftf and that's all nothing more to do:mad: :banghead:!!!!!!!!!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] abcdjdj:
Just place your ftf in firmwares folder, start flashtool and select the ftf from the list and click the flash button! Don't uncheck any options there and press flash. Then connect your phone in download mode and done! Don't worry about the kernel and all that stuff. Flashing a stock ftf should take care of all the problems in your phone.

Press thanks if I helped.:laugh:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alpha Psi:
Is there a way to disable the GSM radio? Turning on airplane mode does not disable all radios.

I'm pretty sure this is a hardware problem since the phone has been through a wash and rinse cycle. Upon bootup, the back of the phone on both sides of the camera heat up. Teardowns show this to be the location of the amplifiers. Any attempts to flash a radio succeeds but the rom does not stay, i.e. the baseband is unknown. However, everything else works: screen, wifi, BT, etc.

Is there any way to ensure the cellular radios turn off, either temporarily or permanently? Using the test mode does not turn the radio off either.

I am running the stock 4.2.1 OTA update. No mods.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] acloh0411:
go to phone app, type *#*#4636#*#*, tap phone information, at bottom there is a button "Turn off radio".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sdobron:
Airplane mode does in fact turn off the gsm radio... Try restoring factory images via fastboot. Maybe that will fix it if there isn't hardware damage.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyb0rgb0rg:
Tried searching and all I found was an unanswered post from 2011.

How do I add keyboard dictionary languages to AOSP based roms? (miui.us and norwegian in this case.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratatattata:
Settings -> Language and input -> Settings icon right of "Android keyboard (AOSP)" -> Input languages.

In Norwegian that is:

Innstillinger -> Språk og inndata -> Innstillingerikon til høyre for "Android-tastatur (AOSP)" -> Inndataspråk.

Hope it is the same for you as it is for me, and best wishes. :P
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyb0rgb0rg:
Hi.

That's for setting the language I guess. But my ROM only contains the dictionary for US English. I want to add the missing dictionaries.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratatattata:
The system language is correctly in that menu too, but then you haven't pressed the settings button next to keyboard languages. See screenshot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyb0rgb0rg:
Thanks again.

I don't know how to be more specific. My ROM does not contain the dictionary I want. The question is not whether I can select keyboard languages or not, but as the topic states: adding a language. Not selecting it.

Edit: Example: I select English and Norwegian. Only the English keyboard auto corrects or makes spelling suggestions.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratatattata:
Hmm, the only solution I know is to select highlighted menu below. Accessible by pressing the button highlighted in the previous post, but as you have already selected multiple languages, I assume you know.

May I ask what ROM you are using, and if you could post a screenshot of your menu or something? :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyb0rgb0rg:
Rom is miui.us and it looks pretty much the same as yours as it is aosp based.

The language selector shows most languages and they are selectable but the Rom itself has probably been cleansed for this kind of bloatware. ;)

Question is, is there a way to sneak in some kind of language file or something?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratatattata:
I guess there is, but I think it is far easier to install a custom keyboard. SwiftKey free is available on Play Store, and SwiftKey flow beta is available on their site (also free), you can search on xda. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abandoned-Trolley:
Is there an app out there that allows this kind of folder behavior on other launchers?

The launcher used in question is the 360 Launcher and upon opening a folder it splits/rips the homescreen apart, it's a great effect but something I've not seen in anything else. Just wondering if there is a hidden gem of an app out there that allows it.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] JFDee:
Some background info:

I'm the author of PPP Widget which is an app that enables mobile data connections on Android devices with USB host capabilities - even if they are WiFi-only.

It turned out that many Android devices have the drivers for 3G sticks already on board, included with the stock kernel. The one large exception are Samsung devices ...

I started to provide the missing drivers as modules (mostly "ppp_async" and "option" which depends on "usb_wwan"). That worked well for some Google devices and also for Samsung devices running ICS, using the source packages from

http://opensource.samsung.com/

In their JB kernels though, Samsung enabled the "MODVERSION" option. Furthermore, compiling the modules with the officially recommended toolchain resulted in a different "module_layout" checksum than in the modules provided in the firmware.

This prevents using any additonal modules on the devices. "insmod" refuses to load these modules.

The only explanation for this problem is that the custom device configuration provided in the source packages does not match the configuration of the device kernel.

This is the case for all GT-P31xx and GT-P51xx models as far as I can tell.

My take is that Samsung is required to provide the correct kernel configuration under the rules of the GPL. Maybe anyone else wants to contact Samsung on this behalf; I already did several times - still waiting for an answer ...
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ketut.kumajaya:
That's the reason why I build everyting from source including the GPU driver and lost exFAT support http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1859227 and the boot image result http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1855700 .
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] JFDee:
Unfortunately, replacing the kernel is no option for end users. The modules I provide are going into a folder on the sdcard, and can be "insmod'ed" from there with no problem - once their magic string and the "modversions" are matching the kernel on the device. The latter is the wall I'm hitting ...

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] JFDee:
I have received a reply from Samsung. They have updated the JB open source package for GT-P3110, GT-P5110 and GT-N7100 (which previously included a config file from 3.0.15 for a kernel version of 3.0.31 !!).

Unfortunately, the modversions of the compiled kernel are still different and incompatible. I have replied with these finding.

Waiting again ...

BTW, the only recent kernel config consistent with the actual device kernel that I have found is for the GT-N8000 (3.0.31). So it is possible to provide a matching configuration.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] mars83:
If You will start to work with kernel I'm willing to beta test with my P5110. Only issue for me is that I need to know what 3G dongle to buy (well need it anyway so would prefer an advice from someone who know something about it). I'm living in Poland and Ireland (once here once there) so I can even test LTE modems (well donations here, myself can spend up to ~50€ on 3G one) because in Wroclaw, Poland I heard it's quite good, also I got H+/H on SGSII here. While in Ireland signal is not THAT strong due to fact most of places are quite remote (except Dublin, Galway etc). Hope I can help in either way :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] JFDee:
This is what I wrote to Samsung concerning the botched configuration file provided with the latest GT-P3110 kernel source:
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] davp:
The GT-N8010 is also in the same situation you describe - config for 3.0.15 and jb stock kernel at 3.0.31, can't build working modules for stock.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] JFDee:
davp, there seems to have been some activity at the Samsung open source center after my messages.

I suggest you make yourself heard as well. Use the "Inquiry" button next to the package download link in the table for your device.

To be able to add working modules to the device, the kernel configuration for the source has to be 100% compatible. It does not matter if any closed drivers are missing as we don't want to replace the kernel - but all those general debugging config options should be correct.

BTW, there is a history of similar issues:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1123643
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] JFDee:
The kernel source for the GT-P3110 has been updated once more, and this time they have fixed the configuration.

With the latest JB update we can actually build working modules for the current firmware.

I confirmed this to the Samsung people and reminded them of the other devices in need of this fix: GT-P3100, GT-P5100, GT-P5110, GT-N7100 and probably more (like the GT-N8010).
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] mars83:
So for now we might get stock kernel which will support 3G modems via USB OTG? How about other kernels such as CM10.1?

I'm looking for good 3G dongle then :P Any advices?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ketut.kumajaya:
Additional kernel modules for stock JB P31xx (tested) and P51xx (untested), contains:

- usb_wwan, ppp_async, and option module for PPP Widget

- dns_resolver, md4, and cifs module for cifs/samba filesystem support

- sunrpc, lockd, and nfs module for nfs filesystem support

cifs.ko not working on P3100 JB 4.1.2 (stock rooted)

Hi ketut.kumajaya,

I'm trying to use cifs.ko but i get:

/system/lib/modules # insmod cifs.ko

insmod: can't insert 'cifs.ko': unknown symbol in module or invalid parameter

I have:

/system/lib/modules # uname -a

Linux localhost 3.0.31-1084989 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Mar 25 14:53:07 KST 2013 armv7l GNU/Linux

I tried other cirs.ko with same result.

Can you give me some clues of what can I do?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] ketut.kumajaya:
Try insmod in order:

insmod dns_resolver.ko

insmod md4.ko

insmod cifs.ko

If something goes wrong, see the kernel messages using dmesg.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Albertum:
Great!!!

That's the solution.

In my Tab 10.1 4.0.4 I'm loading (different kernel and different modules, of course):

insmod cifs.ko

insmod md4.ko

insmod nls_utf8.ko

So I was not thinking I should use a different order.

Thank you.

[HTC Sensation] Sgt.Incontro:
Its incompatible with the Sensation, due to driver issues with the Adreno 220. (Hence why the One S isn't officially supported either.)

Apparently you can let it run by editing your build.prop, but it will still freeze frequently.

We need to wait for an update from Rockstar - which may not even come.

like many others i have read many threads about how to unlock bootloader,root and flash recovery for wildfire s A510e marvel,which had the OTA update to: android 2.3.5

htc sense version 2.1

software number: 2.26.401.3

and yes i have managed to unlock bootloader as well as i have managed to root the marvel,but encountered after that, the difficulty of entering the recovery,or better said,the impossibility of flashing a recovery (CWM,RZR,TRWP) to it.

right now,i have got the bootloader unlocked,it has S-ON and has got HBOOT 1.09.0099.and i'm on software version 2.13.401.3.

it has got superuser installed and after reading some threads,it seamed usefull to me to install busybox and total commander from the playstore.

the most common thing i have encountered by trying to flash recovery,or a RUU,or adapting something with adb shell,was the "permission denied"notification,when i used adb,terminal emulator or whatever.

so i looked deeper into the busybox menu,and looked at all the applets and googled "busybox menu", and i have compared them and i noticed that the flash_lock and flash_unlock options are missing in the busybox menu on my phone.

i guess this has something to do with the S-ON security-thing,in combination with the bootloader version 1.09.0099.????

now i was wondering,if there is a way to give permission with busybox,maybe in combination with total commander (which is usefull for making read only to read and write) and make it possible to flash a recovery.

perhaps by adding the flash_lock/flash_unlock options??? and then it would be possible?...i don't know...

i am no expert,i have just read a lot on the forum and figured out this option,but i have got no idea if this will work,and i was wondering if someone more expert could answer this question.

Hello everyone I have a questions about OTA.

I recently rooted my phone (n7100) using exynos-abuse and installed spenboard switcher by copying the .apk in the /system/app folder everying is working fine but now i get an OTA notification, download goes without any problem but install fail (tried 3 times).

I don't think the root itself is the problem since i got an OTA after rooting but before the installation of Spen board switcher without any problem.

The status on the device is still normal so i'm wondering if the installation of the .apk can be the problem (i made a try after removing the .apk but still no succes) is there something I miss ?

First of all discussing fraud is against the rules here on XDA, however, I have to say, I can't imagine why anyone would take a good phone and try to fix a bricked one they have to send back - you'll be charged by AT&T full price if you don't return the bricked one. Nothing to be gained here.
