* As the head says... Can any type of theme (mdpi, ldpi, hdpi, xhdpi...etc...) be applied via Theme Manager?:confused:

* What'll happen if I flash wrong type of theme(if any...) on my Galaxy_Fit?

For cm7 choose only MDPI/LDPI themes as HDPI ones make glitches all over the phone...

But for cm9 and above there are very few MDPI themes and none for LDPI afaik...so use HDPI there...i use always HDPI themes on those roms...and they work jus graphic quality is degraded...it means u cant get whole feel like HDPI phones...

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Senrir:
Hi.

I have no idea why but I am getting random turn offs of the screen at times.

And when I push the Power button (Just push, kinda like unlocking the device), Everything seem to get reactivated, like the note just wake up from boot.

Started noticing it after installing a N8000 rom (which is not for N8010). Right now Im using a N8010 rom and its still happening.

Is it possible to be caused by an app that needs root access, like GMD Gesture Control? Since Im getting the "Granted permission" for it everytime the note gets "reactivated" (as stated above)
[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
I was following a tutorial on here about rooting my HTC Evo 3D Rogers, everything went smoothly, except I accidentally typed a wrong command and replaced ClockworkMod Recovery with the boot files... I know I am f***ed.... But I want to know is there anything I can do to hard reset or even replace the boot files if any of you guys have the files? When I boot my phone now, it just loads the HTC welcome screen and goes straight into the ClockworkMod Recovery...

Please, I am so worried about this... Hopefully you guys can help me out...

EDIT: I can still get into the HBOOT by volume down + power button.. hope that helps..
[HTC EVO 3D] ian888:
have u tried flash another ROM by CWM...??

or can u stil enter fastboot from HBoot...?? try flash firmware from there...

sorry if i'm wrong.... just trying to help.... :o
[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
I'm not a pro at these things, but I can tell you that I can still open up fastboot,

I just need the original boot files and instructions on how to overwrite my mistaken ones and I think I'm good...

Would you be able to hook me up with those? :l
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
What's your hboot version and are you s-on or s-off right now?

if you made a backup before doing this you should restore that in recovery. If not then download a rom and flash it in recovery. You might need to flash the boot.img seperately in fastboot if you are s-on
[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
In my Evo, it says:

Shooter_U PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT- 1.53.007

eMMC-boot

And also, which rom should I download and how do I flash it in recovery? As I said before, I'm quite a noob at these kind of things :l
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
Does it say locked or unlocked on the first line? If its locked just run an RUU. This will get you back to stock.
[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
It says unlocked, I unlocked the phone then accidentally changed the boot directory onto the clockwork recovery program ( I assume it overwrote the files )....

I've ran RUU twice and came up with Error 15... (It's the RUU Sprint one though).
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
First of all your phone is gsm model so don't ever try to run a sprint ruu. That's cdma. Get a rogers ruu. And you have to relock before running ruu

Sent from my shooteru
[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
I ran one but it failed so I don't think it mattered too much.

Would there be a link for me to follow the instructions in relocking my phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
Put your phone in fastboot. The command to lock is "fastboot oem lock" ( without the commas )

Look here for ruu

[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
I've gotten the RUU, and you're saying....

I'll put phone in fastboot, plug usb, run "fastboot oem lock"

And where does the RUU come in?

Again, sorry for my inexperienced towards this :/

EDIT: I've relocked my phone but none of the RUUs found on the site seems to be working...
[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
Update: Finally found a RUU that worked after I relocked my phone, thanks Eminem for helping me!!! You are the best! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
Glad you got your phone working :)

just make sure you dont run a wrong command next time :p
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
Can you post your solutions on here so other can know too.

I understand most new users don't read threads, but there are those few who do and knowing where you got the RUU to solve your issue would help them a lot.
[HTC EVO 3D] beasaw:
Alright,

1) I booted into Fastboot, and relocked my phone with the cmd "fastboot oem lock"

2) After relocking, I restarted and went into fastboot USB and ran a RUU found in

http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Shooter (be sure to check the version numbers and the branding of the phone, pick the right version is very important!)

3) Phone should take some time to replace all the files and once you restart it it's all back to normal :D , you can then once again unlock it as you wish.

[HTC Rezound] clmowers:
Im having a problem with my internal SD cards. Im able to see it via Root Explorer and access write, delete all that good stuff. Now i have my music on this internal and when i open PowerAmp, it tells me that its not mounted. Also, when i hook it up to a pc only my external shows up. This just started happening not sure why. I looked under the /mnt and the emmc folder is mounted. Any advice at to what i can look at to fix this
[HTC Rezound] clmowers:
ok I have figure it out!! What i did was boot into recovery and did a USB mount in recovery of the internal SD. Windows came up and said you need to format blah blah blah. So i went and did a quick with the fat32 file format and everything was good again. the phone is able to see and use it and also comes up in Windows. :) Who would have thought a windows computer would have fixed a linux issue(ok wasnt really a linux issue but still)...i guess pigs can fly lol
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Your internal card? Did it not screw up your phone? I thought (probably assumed) a lot of stuff on the internal was necessary for operating the phone normally.
[HTC Rezound] clmowers:
The rezound has a built in 10GB "SD card" separate from the system stuff which is on a different chip or partition(not sure which) which is like 2gb in size

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warbuff:
If it came with 4.0.4 then it's probably already rooted since ics was never released for the desire z.

Do you think there will be an update to Android 5.x for the Xperia Z?

Been chatting to sonys customer support, but they just say that they don't have an idea about the update plans.
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
This question is so absurd... The devices isn't even out yet and now you're asking for an update which doesn't even exist yet for android in general? Jellybean 4.2 isn't even stable yet now android 5 is already being questioned?
[Xperia Z General] cooltranier13px:
I agree with this. Buy a phone for the software it currently has, not the updates it's going to get. If software is that important, root or Nexus.
[Xperia Z General] theindievisual:
/thread

post this question again after IO2013 (assuming klp gets announced then)
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
Just for the sake of answering your question here's a video clip I archived a week ago to just so I would have some claim on sony if ever they would decide to discontinue support for this device prematurely...

I just zipped it because xda won't allow me t o upload video files.

Still I think this question is still absurd.
[Xperia Z General] hebbe:
please, tell me why this question is absurd? just because a device isn't out yet, i'm not allowed to be interested in its future? don't you think sony doesn't have roadmap for their devices? do you think, they just live day by day? don't you think they are planning the support for their devices for years in advance?

and it isn't like the xperia z is their flagship, and android 5 is faaaaaar faaaaar away? and is it really forbidden for a device with an age of half a year (then) to get an update to the newest os? do devices have to stick with the os they were originally equipped with?

when you by a windows 7 pc, and you ask if there'll be an update for windows 8 for this device or if it'll be updateable, is this absurd too?

i didn't ask something like "has anyone gotten android five on his xperia z already?"...i just asked if there is a *chance* we'll get an offical update to android 5 by sony for their first supersmartphone-flagship.
[Xperia Z General] djq:
im sure it will be able to get the android 5 update but you are asking questions not even Sony knows when android 5 is coming out so how are they suppose to answer something they have no control of when it gets released.....
[Xperia Z General] hebbe:
they don't even exactly know when their own device will be released...;)

to state it clear once more: i'm not asking for a *date* android 5 will be available for the z.

i'm quite sure sony doesn't know WHEN android 5 will be released, but i'm also quite sure that sony knows if they will be giving android 5 support for their flagship, and if this device has the capabilities to run android 5.

once again: i do not want to know WHEN android 5 will be out, WHEN there will be an update for the z, or HOW to get the update. i'm just interested if there might by a chance that there'll be an official android 5 for the xperia z SOMEDAY.:laugh:
[Xperia Z General] Zlatan9.:
coupled tankemp

nobody know this buddy:)
[Xperia Z General] Ambroos:
Whatever comes after Jelly Bean will be available for the Xperia Z. They have no reason not to, when it comes to the market it'll be the most powerful Android device there is. It'll remain high-end spec-wise for a long time.
[Xperia Z General] SmallsXD:
If i bought a PC in '08/'09 I wouldnt have asked Dell/Acer/HP if it is updateable to Windows 8. Bad analogy. Its absurd because customer service reps are not engineers/developers/business managers. The next version of android hasnt been annouced, feature rumours havent even started as far as I know. Pretty sure no manufacturer has even gotten a SDK or some other taste of the next version either or else they would have been "leaks" and speculations about what's new. The Phone is a 2013 High end device and as expected would the very LEAST get the 2013 Release of the OS. For all we know it could be JB3 4.3.1 lol
[Xperia Z General] hebbe:
:D

this sounds promising. hopefully android 5 will come out this year.

i remember i've heard some rumors that android 5 will be announced in q2/2013.

thanks for all your answers.
[Xperia Z General] hebbe:
this is really a bad analogy. :laugh:

but it's most likely that android 5 will not be released in 2016!
[Xperia Z General] techguyone:
I suppose a better question would be (and I don't know the answer) I'm hoping some long term Sony owners might know though.

How good are Sony at updating their phones? (not saying fast.. just if they do)

Looking into their past is it likely that a new Android OS release of some lets say... 9 months after the phone is out would be updated onto this phone is likely or no.
[Xperia Z General] Ambroos:
Very. I mean, every phone they release gets at least one major version update and most higher-end phones get more.

The whole 2011 range started out on 2.3 and got an update to 4.0.

Most of 2012 started on 2.3 and is on 4.0 now. All phones that started on 4.0 and all mid+high-end phones from 2012 are getting an update to 4.1 and probably 4.2.

Sony is doing pretty well with updates. They've gotten faster too.
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
My point here is Sony only promises 18months of support for every device they released and if ever there would be only minor revisions between those 18 months then there won't be any official android 5 in Xperia Z.
[Xperia Z General] StellMonkey:
It's likely to get "android 5"... Xperia Z is a supersuperphone :D
[Xperia Z General] Amritttt:
They will release xperia z with 4.1.2 and there is no exact date for 4.2 the os which was released months ago so what do u guys think when will the xperia z users will get keylime update which is not released. This ie the only question which bothers me otherwisr the phone is ****in amazing:)

Sent From My Galaxy S3
[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Expect at least 2 major releases for Xperia Z as a flagship device. Since it comes with 4.1.2 and will be updated to 4.2 in its first month - i'd say it'll get at least two updates after that - especially with Sony's lastest efforts to support dev community etc.
[Xperia Z General] Soldier Blue:
I don't see what is so absurd about op's question. IO2013 is like two months after general availability of this phone, then you'll probably see key lime pie at end of q3 or something so maybe a six month difference.

So absurd no, but probably stupid since no one has the answer to that - even Sony. If they release an upgrade thats fine but why would you want to run OEM versus stock? First thing I'd do if I bought the Z would be to wipe off the Sony customizations and build my own.
[Xperia Z General] the1onewolf:
Yes.
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
I'm not really a fan of AOSP so I would choose a modified stock than AOSP ROM. I prefer lot's of customizations :)

If I would have wanted AOSP I would have gone nexus. So yeah I buy sony phones for the Camera, Bravia, XLoud, Music Player, Keyboard, messaging etc.

Well yeah it's all different on each person.
[Xperia Z General] ethan3686:
also even if its not updated..you always have the custom roms with great support from sony.
[Xperia Z General] Justinchi:
I actually think this question strikes to the heart of Sony. How far does Sony look ahead as far as OS update when it comes to its devices? We don't need choppy excuses why "this device cannot be updated" and then developers end up getting it to work flawlessly. I think the question is, "How long is a device's OS update life cycle with Sony?"
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
That comment only applied to the Xperia Play device. But I think they do have a real reason for this. Just that they don't wanna open it
[Xperia Z General] Justinchi:
ONLY the Xperia Play? How about other 2011 devices and some 2012 devices are losing support too. Anyway, my point is Sony hasn't shown long term support for ANY device as of yet so this thread question is valid.
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
Check the document included when you bought your device. It says there sony will only support phones within 18months period from release.

Other Xperia 2011 devices did indeed get updates within 18months(Major and Minor ones) except Xperia Play so yes they indeed gave proper support. Just not sure about 2012 models but I seem to notice some jellybean updates rolling on some 2012 models?

Here are the list of firmwares released by sony at least on my 2011 phone which is Xperia Pro within 18months.

Android 4.0.* = Froyo & Gingerbread

Android 4.1.* = ICS
[Xperia Z General] Justinchi:
Ah I see. Ok so 18 months is a device's life cycle With Sony..hmm
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
For the arc s they did a GM to ICS updated, they looked at a JB updated but said it could not be done due to the lack of RAM. I'm running CM10 atm. But I think RAM could be a problem with the Sony ROM as it needs all the Sony software on that as well. Since the Xperia Z is pretty max out in terms of specs this should not be a problem any longer.
[Xperia Z General] Justinchi:
It better NOT be a problem.
[Xperia Z General] gstrn32:
I don't know how Sony is recently but the reason that i'm on this forum at all is because of they were slow to update the X10 from 1.6 which is what it was released with when everything else had 2.1 looking to move on to 2.2. my wife's captivate was on froyo while the offical version for mine was still donut. I got sick of waiting and it was good i did cause it was more than six months before an offical update came out... TO ECLAIR. Now i know that's ancient history but following that logic that question is not that absurd.
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
Indeed

---------- Post added at 02:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 PM ----------

Well I can imagine. Would have been pissed of as well. Luckily for me I had a desire at the time :)

Anyway after the the X10 debacle SE did this big mea culpa and made the 18 months update promise as well as open up to devs and be more open. I have to say I was not disappointed when I bought the Arc s. The Arc S is a SE device and I don't know how Sony is going to handle stuff, but they must be totally mad if they don't give decent support as a bad rep is the last thing you need in this competitive market. That being said, stranger things have happened :)

as a side note the Sony tablet S (September 2011 - October 2012)

Did receive an mayor updated HC to ICS and some say that it will get an update later this year to JB.

[Xperia Z General] dragon632:
This is a meaningless topic. Even if sony don't offer the update of android 5 or future version, you can also replace the OS which you want after making the device rooted, it is the superiority of all the android devices.
[Xperia Z General] MadManMark:
Sony's updating history isn't pretty, but its definitely improving, hopefully it will keep on doing so, and if what they say is true about them now focusing more on high end devices that should mean less releases this year, so their resources wont be so divided and they will be able to give us the consumers an improved deal with updates
