first i have to say, everything works fine when i was using windows 7, i have flashed many times in windows 7. but now i have some serious problem.

when i plug the device, it says hardware unrecognised, i've already tried install/reinstall all the flashtool drivers in windows 8 disable-driver-signature-enforcement-mode, i also tried gordon gate, and it still says hardware unrecognised. when i open the flashtool and try to flash something, it says NOTHING! here are 2 screenshots.

clearly it is not progressing as it been like that for over an hour now

also tried clearing cahce/dalvik to no avail

any help very much appreciated

thanks

You just need to format your internal sd card and all should be fine, it's a fairly common issue
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] xda-nat:
actually I had left it alone for an hour or so and it seems to have come back to life again..

although it has lost my security settings and all the haptic feedback has turned itself back on again

lost my swiftkey settings also it seems

piece of shizzle

EDIT: in fact it refuses to keep any security settings at all, no lock screen nothing.

lost all my texts everything, f*cking cr*p

walkman isnt working either

wondering why i bothered upgrading cant actually see any difference really other than a more colorful boot image. hoping that the battery life will improve as that is rubbish - I know it takes a while to settle.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
No No No don't format anything. That would make you loose all data and apps. Let it be. It will fix itself. Could take between 5 minutes and 3 hours. It is not an error or a problem or anything. Its just getting ready.

But if you really really need it to boot, yes you can format internal.

---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 AM ----------

I don't know why it screwed up your settings buddy maybe due to a small flashing error. Flash again and you will see the difference in the upgrade. Battery life is amazing. I can get two days if i switch off data, and 1.5 days with data always on. Plus multitasking is smoother and the camera has HDR, the Xperia Z's ClearAudio+ engine, notification toggles, a sexy new Album, blah blah. You'll find out.

Oh and you did the right thing by letting it be with the white triangle sign.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] xda-nat:
its an Xperia T I have in case that wasn't clear...

so I installed it from a zip in the end, rather than an ftf as flashtool was playing sillybuggers.

I should just go in to recovery and do so again? presumably along with the JB GApps

like I say it was working fine after the first time I did that, but when I turned it off this morning it went all manky

I would however like to keep some of my settings for the apps that havent already had their settings raped.. is titanium the best way to do that? or to move things to SD card and reinstall or something

also home button not functioning- at all

the no screen lock is a big issue as I have my work emails on there - if I lost my phone I would really get in trouble
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] xda-nat:
OK just installed the ROM zip (timin8r's one) again and its still utterly screwed.

can someone recommend a different one that I might be able to get working.

please....

thanks

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] matt4321:
Most the app stuff is on /data not /sdcard so you'll be fine, some of the data made by apps will be in /sdcard/android but there isn't much there as most is in /data/data so if you backup /sdcard/android you'll be fine, you may as well backup your whole sdcard and format, that's the solution I used and most people have been using. If in doubt use titanium backup to also backup your apps if you're unsure
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
I believe the best way is to use a ftf file with flashtool. I have not tried any zipped roms. They might be faulty. And Titanium Backup is the app to use to backup apps. Moving things to SD card is useless as they will be removed when you install a new rom. Always make sure you do a full wipe when you flash a new rom, and flash the kernel before flashing the rom.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] AndroidHoneyComb:
I had the screwdriver a few days ago, I freaked out so much because I putted Xperia T ftf and installed app's and then Reboot the device and then boom it showed the screwdriver... I was freaking out, So I went to 3 store's while the device was on.. and then later that day it randomly turned on properly.. Flash att ftf and the put back the jelly bean ftff

I tried Mxplayer but with the same result. The only player seems to work with HW acceleration is VLC. Does anybody faced similar problem?

I realized that in different threads people are asking how to delete CID, and because it's really sensitive dealing with this issue without proper and sufficient experience, I strongly recommend for for those asking about it to refer to this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2078021), read it thoroughly and feel safe.

Can also do it from within BMM if you have the latest version 0.3.4 installed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HTCFAN0923:
I'll throw my two cents on the at&t jelly bean update.

As some of you can see, I've been on these forums for a VERY long time. I've seen the forums go from basically an HTC win-mo board to the amazing place it has become today. Sadly, it seems like people seem to come here to whine more then to either innovate or at least take control of their devices.

Yes it's frustrating that AT&T hasn't released the jelly bean update for our device considering the update has been out for nearly 5 months now. But at the same time, this is XD-freaking-A! Where if you want anything on your device (short of Google wallet apparently), you cane make it happen. Root your phone, unlock your bootloader, and enjoy your phone as you want to.

I remember when people wouldn't bat an eye to dropping $600-$800 on a HTC TyTn II and it would come with 850/1900 HSPA so you didn't have to get stuck with ATT's crap and terrible support.

Lets get back to enjoying our device, and if that means going the Nexus device and/or unlocked device route, so be it. Don't let the carriers control you.

The lesson as always: less whining, more hacking!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Funny, I was just thinking along similar lines today. This board has changed a whole lot in the time I've been here. I also joined during the WinMo days, back with the TyTn II (AT&T Tilt). In those days, folks with smartphones were mostly early adopters. Sure, XDA existed long before that time, and there were even earlier adopters, by far. But back in 2007, smartphones and especially moddiing them were the realm of tech geeks only.

The smartphone world has now exploded and become mainstream. The demographic of people that visit this site is now very different. Lots of n00bs asking for one-click root solutions and video tutorials, instead of just reading and doing. A lot more n00bs asking the same questions over and over, without bothering to do any research. And asking for help without providing any background information. I remember the days when nobody would even help you, if you didn't have your carrier, phone version, firmware version, and radio listed in your signature.

So my specific peeve is a bit different (less about the whining, and more about users not wanting to learn and research). But the basic premise is the same: the user base here has changed a whole lot over time.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DESERT.TECH:
Hmm I'm not sure I follow Ya about people whining , we get sometimes a bunch of people who don't follow instructions or read any previous posts but it seems its just the normal new user issues until they get broke in. The hoxl community in my opinion is the best group around in xda. With s off and our awesome choices in many android based versions it seems any update from carriers would be a severe downgrade and at this point serves us no purpose. I guess to make long story short I'm not really sure what the point of this thread is ( no offense meant)

Think this board's bad? should have seen the hp touchpad section right before it died. There's a new thread/post asking for someone to port win7 and win8 almost every day, and it's never going to happen lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SmiLey497:
Back in the day people who bought smartphones were geeks and tech heads, plus this site was mainly HTC devices WinMo devices. Now almost everyone has a smartphone so you get a lot of annoying people on here.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
Ha! As bad as this place can get with noobishness, the iOS jailbreak community is worse because the barriers to entry are a lot lower. Pretty much everything is one-click once the exploits are found, and there's no division by handset like there is with Android. Bricking is next to impossible because you can easily recover and go back to stock through iTunes.

I haven't been at xda all that long, but I was into jailbreaking from when the 3G was released, which was mid-2008. Back then, it was only hardcore geeks and most people didn't even realize jailbreaking existed or had only the vaguest understanding of what it was. When I came over the divide last year, it had gotten so bad people thought you could jailbreak over wifi because iTunes does most things over wifi now. You would go through ten posts trying to help someone only to discover they didn't even have their iPhone plugged into their freaking computer. :mad: Plus you would have people showing up for the express purpose of arguing that you shouldn't jailbreak and that all of us were going to jail.

Everyone and their mom has a smartphone now. That statement applies to me as my mom has a Galaxy Note 2. The only thing I ever seen her do with it is look up celebrities net worth on google now :laugh:. I have never understood why would there be anyone here waiting for AT&T to release their JB Sense ROM when we have had it here for over 2 months. I'm here because I want to get the absolute best out of my phone that the purely stock experience cannot match.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thebobmannh:
Everyone and their mom has a smartphone, but not everyone and their mom comes here and talks about flashing ROMs. I expect stupidity in the forums as a whole from outsiders who just come here from a Google search, but people in the ROM threads are just as lazy and entitled. ROM threads are nearly impossible to keep up with because they're 1000 pages long and 980 of those pages are repeat questions. I'm new here so maybe that's the way it's always been but it's frustrating to say the least. If I don't come here for one day, I have 30 pages to catch up with on the single ROM I actually follow.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Wubbz:
When I first bought my phone a good six months ago, coming from 3gs, All I did was troll up until now. The first thing I found was the thread to unlock, supercid and , root my phone, for att 2.20. I found two threads that would do it, the all-one-tool kit, and the x-factor exploit. I decided to go with the x-factor instead of the all in one because i wouldn't learn anything with the tool-kit. After that I ran into the problem of no rom, recovery, and an un-mountable sdcard. I did a quick search about the un-mountable sdcard in our forums here and found the Team Nocturnal SD Fix for evita. Once that was done i had a working sd card, trwp recovery but still no rom. So i did another search and found one of the best informational posts ever, Gunnyman's quick and dirty adb/fastboot primer this got me on track to start pushing rom zips to my sdcard without having a bootable rom and also told me that i had to fastboot flash boot boot.img every time I installed a new rom hboot 1.14+. And I still haven't had to ask any question on how to do something because guaranteed 100% that someone else has asked that very same question you just have to read and read some more, the only way someone hasn't asked your question is if you've been doing your own mod work that nobody else has seen.

I'm nowhere near as active as I used to be. Cooking your own winmo roms was fun in those days. But that was in College and at att when I actually had time to learn that stuff. Generally if you follow instructions to a T, you will be fine.

I hate people who jailbreak at my school. Why? Because I'm the kid they b**** to about EVERYTHING. How do you jailbreak? Where did you download it? How do I install stuff? How do I get everything free? OH EM GEE MY PHONE KEEPS RESTARTING WHAT DO I DO?! JAILBREAKING SUCKS ITS ALL YOUR FAULT! To this I reply with "Google it you d*** a**" This being my first smartphone, I have used every peice of it. I have a girl who bought a gs3 and has yet to figure out how to put apps in folders. I can say, without a doubt in my mind. That I am the only kid in my grade with common sense for technology. I'm only in 8th grade so I pray it gets better in highschool.

That's really interesting. I always assumed kids growing up these days (God I sound old) would be friggin' wizards of technology having grown up with it since birth. But maybe the opposite is true : where my first computer required a lot of WORK to do anything with (custom boot disks to run DOOM and whatnot), nowadays everything just "works" so kids will be proficient on the basics but absolutely clueless on anything beyond that because they never HAD to do it...?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
As the father of three school-age boys, I can tell you that in some ways, not a whole lot has changed. The baseline has moved, but the divisions are the same. Everyone has a phone and a computer, but there are still big differences in how much they care about them.

The average kids (the same crowd who wouldn't touch a computer when I was their age) are uninterested in the guts and only know the basics of how to use them. And there is still the geek crowd who wants to know everything and play around with it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
This is true. I graduated highschool in 2007 to give you some perspective. The student body of my school was a little under 1000 for each grade. Of this, there were 15 of us "computer guys". Nobody else knew anything, nobody else cared.

I feel like I'm getting old, watching everyone around me. I'm a senior in college now, getting a bachelor's degree in telecommunications & systems administration. You'd be suprised to hear that most of my classmates know relatively little about computers, especially at a lower level. Hell, one of my friends who just scored a great job at target corperate IT didn't know what a CSV file was until I scolded him yesterday. Kids these days are stupid.

I know the Linux distros. I have used a variety over many years. I trust the open source community to scour the code and keep it safe in the main repositories. The XDA community feels sloppy in comparison, how do I really know some ROM is safe for my phone and information? Which is to say the ROM world has not bent over backwards to assure its community as has Linux. Yes, I want a new ROM but must the learning curve be 10x steeper than installing and using Linux? I admire patient people who wait for the pending At&t release.

I saw this post this morning and it baffled me. I decided to wait until after my hangover subsided to reply. Because you quoted me in your post I can only assume you were referring to what I wrote. If that is the case, what are you saying?

Is your post implying that I fit the "nerd" stereotype; pale, weak, hovered over a computer screen in the dark, forever alone, staring off at the internet with my jaw slightly lowered just enough to drool.... ... I wrote "computer guy", not basement dwelling nerd in my post for a reason. Like many people on this forum and in my field, I am very sociable and have many friends. I just have a strong passion for learning about computers. Believe it or not, my skin doesn't catch on fire when I step outside.

Or were you trying to justify why you might know as much as the rest of us with regards to the inner workings of a computer, even though you consider yourself a "computer guy"? I don't understand.

But I guess this point is now moot, since you've deleted what you wrote. I imagine it was the result of a long Friday night. :highfive:

I joined XDA not too long ago, but I was on this forum back when the Tilt was popular. Though I'm only about to be 17, my love for technology stems far back. I showed my non-techie friend Sweep2Wake on my One X. They looked at me and said, "so.."

While I think this is such a revolutionary feature, they didn't care. It's because they don't have the want or need to learn what they can do with the devices they have. They just want it to send texts and check Facebook. It's ridiculous.
