[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drinkypoo:
Yeah I've used the smb built into ES but I prefer to use the smb functionality built into the Linux kernel to using libsmb, which is what's happening when you use es file explorer, or pretty much anything else with built in smb browsing. I also don't care for ES file explorer's interface. Of course, open manager doesn't have smb support...

I have figured out the mtp/msc stuff some time ago.

anyway, pretty much all the kernels have a recovery, some of them have too many recoverys in my opinion :) so it doesn't really matter. but if you use fastboot boot boot.img then it boots without installing. I don't know if this works for anything but recovery, like if you could boot a kernel this way, probably not. I like command-line stuff. I do use flashtool's gui for ftfs though, of course.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtjecs:
a little off topic..

what should be the sequence..?

from stock..,

nandroid BU, flash pre-req stock ROM, unlock bootloader, flash custom ROM,..?

- or -

nandroid BU, unlock boot loader, flash pre-req, then custom ROM..?

will i lose root access when i unlock the boot loader.?

thanks...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drinkypoo:
In my case I reflashed with a stock ftf right after unlocking, and then installed a kernel which rooted.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtjecs:
..?

so it's nandroid BU, unlock boot, kernel, stock ROM then custom ROM..?

a few more question..

will i lose unlocked bootload when i flash rom..?

is kernel also included when you do a nandroid BU..?

sorry.. just a newbie...

thanks...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drinkypoo:
you have the sequence right, I don't know if nandroid backs up the kernel. I would guess no, but I could be wrong, and hope I am.

you don't care anyway. you can reflash back to a stock kernel. just make very very sure you never flash a cdma to a gsm or a gsm to a cdma. a, at, i are all gsm... if you do that you need testpoint reflash as far as I know.

you should also do a titanium backup, that gets you all the apks on your system now, handy for restoring any games on your current rom that aren't on your new rom.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julian280:
Well, you can unlock your downloader at any time, by IMEI method through Sony webpage or through alejandrissimo's testpoint method. It is permanent, so it doesn't matter if you change Rom or kernel, it will remain unlocked forever ;), and if for whatever reason you have to take your phone to carrier for warranty, it will appear locked for Sony (I already did it, and they didn't void my warranty)

Just follow the steps I gave you, it's not that complicated. You can flash first the Rom or first the kernel, it doesn't affect anything, except when you change android version (GB to ICS or something), then flash the kernel first and then the new Rom.

Flashing a rom doesn't change the kernel, so if you're on DoomKernel and "A" Rom, you can switch to "B" Rom and stick to DK, IF IT'S ON THE SAME ANDROID VERSION.

Also you can change kernel while keeping the same rom

And respecting to nandroid backup, it saves everything but kernel, baseband and some sections of internal memory that you should not worry about. That's why you're able to restore a backup with the same or other kernel without any worry ;)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtjecs:
thanks for the replies..

i'm looking for ways to unlock the bootloader and relock it.. and it seems that the DRM keys will be gone once you unlock.. then there's another post saying that you can do the test-point method to unlock the bootloader...

i can't find a tutorial where i can unlock/relock the bootloader without removing the DRM keys..

or is it not possible..?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julian280:
It's possible..... through a paid method. I unlocked my bootloader thanks to alejandrissimo, a well known, very knowledgeable and trustable member here at XDA. He does the procedure with the testponit method using s1tool. What he does is to patch the TrimArea, and consequently, the bootloader in order for it to accept entering fastboot (flashing custom kernels) and removing SIM-unlock by the way. It takes less than 5 seconds to do it, but you must be REALLY CAREFUL when doing the testpoint, cause if you touch the wrong point you could mess up the device forever. Don't mess up with making or buying "special custom wires/cables" for it, I just used a clip, folding it to make a "U" shape and placing each end to connect corresponding points ;).

It appears locked to carriers, I took it to fix the camera and they didn't void my warranty, so I think they didn't realize it was unlocked and you don't need to relock it. See the original "relock bootloader" thread by blagus ;)

Also, this is the only mehtod that doesn't erase DRM certificates, so you can have OTA updates safely, unless WotanServer and Omnius

Just search the web for a picture of it and you'll make an idea of how easy it is. Alejandrissimo will give you proper instructions on how to do it and he is really pacient :). Also there is a chance of it to be free.... I don't know cause I did this like a year ago, so....If you decide go to http://unlock-bootloader.com/

---------- Post added at 12:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 AM ----------

I forgot....... if you live outside USA, it's probably that your country has "mobile number portability" policy. It means that you can take your phone to carrier for "repairs" claiming to been experiencing "low call quality" or "sudden reboots" and they will give you back with the bootloader unlocked. If you country has this law, obviously you can take it exclusively for unlocking, but the carrier can say "we do not count with the means for performing such operation" or something (it happened to my mom in Colombia, and I have known of such cases in other regions with the same policy, like Chile or the European Union), so the best is to take it for a COMPLETE REVISION to get this done.

It will take 3-8 days to get your phone back, and of course you must take it there unrooted and with all the bloatware, so a nandroid backup of your original state will be priceless. CWM will be disabled when unrooting.

To prove if it's been unlocked, just try to enter fastboot. If the blue led lights up, you're done!!!!! (not always it appears the "unlocked bootloader allowed=yes" state after unlocking. It depends on the android version and some other things to show it, so dont worry if it doesn't show up)

This is a long wait process, but it is free and totally worth it if you're outside USA, so you shuold give it a try if you don't want to pay for it ;)

Hello there i was wondering is there any chance of changing the s3 korean firmware to european .

Next week i'm getting a korean s3 but i really want to change the firmware

Now I have a s2 that was 250s and then i changed it to i9100

Well i googled and searched in xda forums but i didn't found anything about it

Is it possible to change the firmware with flashing the korean kernel for it . Or the radio chip stuff is like mars and venus
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UrbanDrawer:
No, because your phone doesn't have the same hardware with International one.

True . Still I bought gt-i9300 lol so that is not a problem anymore . I have a question again . What is the advantages of having branded s3 between unbranded s3
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
Not much? If you're rooted anyway. Not gonna get updates early if you're branded. But custom roms sort that out.

No noticeable difference when it comes to actual usage
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enkhtwshn:
Again a personal question . I used CF-root for stock kernel on my gt-i9100 because syiah , philz seems to lag . Did on my i9300 too . I understand that they have more battery life , but overclocking them leads to fast battery drain , is that right? So i prefer staying stock. Well i don't play with my phone , i play with my gtab 7500 more
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
If you don't need the extra performance, no need to overclock. I did it for the heck of it then realised I don't actually need it so went back to stock. Overclocking does lead to faster drain but some kernels also provide under volt support so they kind of negate each other in terms of battery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enkhtwshn:
So undervolting could save battery in theory? I heard it destroys the battery even the phone in whole .

Heard too much stories of dead phone because of undervolting and overclocking. Because of idiots putting overclocking and undervolting on maximum. But they just dont know what are they doing.

Thanks a lot . Sorry for so much bothering
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enkhtwshn:
Question again . If i undervolt my device should i do battery calibiration or just leave it?

That's amazingly vague. What area51avenger is trying to figure out, is if you tried flashing a ROM meant for the quad core version of the One X (code named Endeavoru), which can be real bad news. If you can figure out what you flashed, and tell us, it would be helpful.

But the fact your screen still comes on is good news. Try to format the SD, and you might have to install TWRP again, but I don't think it will be that hard to get you fixed.

That's good news. Its the proper version of PA for our phone (EVITA) rather than the quad core varian (EVDEAVORU).

I'd try to reformat SD first, as already mentioned.

If that doesn't work, you can re-install TWRP a couple ways:

1) Flash using fastboot. You will find a fastboot flashable version if you search the TWRP thread (posted by another user). http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1677447

And the original cause of all this may be very simple: you may have forgotten to flash boot.img using fastboot, after flashing Paranoid Android. This is mandatory if you are hboot 1.14 or higher, and S-On.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Wubbz:
1. Install TWRP - You can find the lastest version here

Once you've downloaded it put it in your adb/fastboot folder. In your adb/fastboot folder shift + right click > open command window here.

Type, adb reboot bootloader, enter. Now that your phone is in the bootloader and says FASTBOOT USB.

Type in the cmd that is open, fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.2.0-evita.img, enter. This should install the newest TWRP recovery.

2. Now make sure that pa-evita.zip and a copy of the boot.img from the zip as well as the gapps.zip for the rom is in your adb/fastboot flolder.

type in cmd, fastboot flash boot boot.img, enter. Now on your phone goto BOOTLOADER and hit the power button, scroll down to RECOVERY and hit the power button again rebooting your phone into TWRP recovery.

type in cmd, adb push pa-evita.zip /sdcard/TRWP, enter

type in cmd, adb push gapps.zip /sdcard/TRWP, enter

3. From TWRP.

Install > navigate to the sdcard/TWRP > pa-evita.zip > Swipe to confirm Flash > Wipe Cache & Dalvik > Back > Home

Install > navigate to the sdcard/TWRP > gapps.zip > Swipe to confirm Flash > Wipe Cache & Dalvik > Back > Reboot System.
