AW: [Q] so-02e root problem

Why root? Debloat, adblock, exchange security, data backup & restore, adblock, there's totally plenty of reasons to have stock rooted as well. But yeah, wait and STFU it is.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nagato Yuki:
I agree with you, in addition reason for rooting for me, it is to change the fallback fonts and sync the system time.

I just try to live with unroot one, it's hard for a moment, however, I am still satisfied the stock ROM.

And I am also waiting for "just root" without unlocking bootloader.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fhsieh:
Update:

Japanese Xperia Z (docomo SO-02E) has been rooted.

Rooting exploit by goroh_kuh, EasyRootingToolkit by huhka. See instructions here:

http://blog.huhka.com/2013/03/root-xperia-z-so-02e-rootingkit.html

Caution:

By rooting, you will void warranties you have with docomo.

The tooting toolkit is still new, so there may still be unknown issues

If there are any problems, you are on your own in fixing them

Compatible with both 10.1.D.0.317 and 10.1.D.0.322 firmwares.

Enable USB debugging and Unknown sources. Run runme.bat, and follow screenshot instructions.

This is root only, it does not unlock bootloader and does not wipe DRM (BE2 still works after rooting)

From 2ch:

Running the root script may cause your FeliCa/おサイフケータイ to stop working. Deleting or renaming \data\usf (a directory created by the rooting script) reportedly fixes some FeliCa programs (such as モバイルSuica), but this has not been extensively tested. Additionally, the おサイフケータイ app will report "Services in UIM/USIM card are not available because the function is locked or inserted UIM/USIM card doesn't support the services."

Other Docomo-/Japan-only services (infrared, 1seg, etc) appear to still work correctly.

For further updates, please check huhka's blog, goroh_kun's twitter, xperia-freaks.org, or current SO-02E rooting thread on 2ch.

[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhtbrink:
It's all about what you want to pay for. LG phones are relatively cheap for the functionality they offer, but the build quality might be lacking somewhat.

For the prices at which LG currently offers their Optimus L series, it's certainly good value for money.

If you want more features, such as higher screen resolutions or a faster processor, you might be better of with a different phone, either by LG or a different manufacturer.

A general rule of thumb is: when something is cheap, it usually feels cheap. Having said that, it doesn't always mean it's bad quality.

Compared to the Samsung Galaxy S2, the LG Optimus L series is built a little less well, but it does offer some functionality the S2 doesn't have, like NFC. I'd advise you to take a look at what you expect of a phone, then determine a budget and after that, search for the phone that fits your specifications and budget best.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pedrofigo:
Hello Members of XDA,´

I am about to buy a new smartphone. So far I own a NEO and must say that until this moment I am happy with it but is time to buy a new one. For some reasons so far Sony keep satisfied me that is why I have some doubts on changing from Sony to other brand.

Now the big issue: Xperia S or Galaxy SIII?

Besides all arguments my only issues with Xperia S are:

Battery is not removable what in case of malfunction in battery I can´t replace it.

Not able to expand memory.

For me both phones cost the same so: Xperia S or Samsung Galaxy SIII?

:confused:

Thanks for your help and comments.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ponhei9502:
Hi. It depends on what you want to use the phone for. The Xperia S is more of a camera/music phone while the s3 is more of a "hacker" phone with a good processor. The s3 have a bigger screen size while the xperia s has a higher pixel density. So it's really all about preference. What do you want to get out of it?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pedrofigo:
Thanks for your reply.

I am aware of the differences between the 2 phones.

The S3 screen is very close to be to bigger to me. On the other hand the Xperia S have a nice camera and I also believe that the Xperia will handle very well all my major needs. Don´t forget I won a Xperia Neo and must say that until now Xperia Neo does everything I ask him to do so the 1.4 processor in Xperia S should be much better.

The major issue is the opportunity I have for the same price choose between S3 and Xperia S. After some days the opportunity is gone.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ponhei9502:
No problem.

I have the Xperia S and personally i would rather have the s3. But thats just me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sirence:
The battery is actually pretty easy to take out, you just have to remove a few screws and it will void your guarantee.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TheFirstFishy:
Sv: [Q] Xperia S or Galaxy SIII?

I would say S3. Not due to the nice plastic design, but due to bigger screen, faster updates and just better spec in general.

The S3 can still take some decent pictures and still got sd card and a battery you can replace.

Somewhere around..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pedrofigo:
For me S3 will cost only 210€. This a promotion from my operator.

Xperia S cost 230€.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] yw2012:
S3 has stronger battery and faster update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] HellRoot:
Sv: [Q] Xperia S or Galaxy SIII?

S3 without questioning..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] red.leader87:
I Love my xperia... But If cost is same I'd suggest s3... More development, support, hardware, difference in camera isn't that much to justify reason to bend xperia's way.. Having said that I prefer xperia s build... The s3 feels fragile and less like a piece of hardware.

Just my opinion...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] revan17:
This is really a no-brainer. If design is not more important to you, than S3 all the way.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ItBankRock:
I own the Xperia acro S, but if I were you I'd rather get the S3, my dad has one and I tried it, it was really great and smooth!

S3 because:

- More developers means more ROMs, kernels, hacks, etc.

- Better chipset, quad core CPU and quad core Mali GPU for ultimate gaming experience. I played my dad's S3 and it was very smooth, Asphalt 7 was flawless! My Xperia runs Asphalt like sh*t! :(

- Better screen, I know Super AMOLEDs are oversaturated, but hey, according to my experience, it was great! IMAGES WERE SO SHARP AND CRISP!

BUT if you're not a gamer, you're just a normal man who wants a stylish cameraphone, go for the Xperia S.

But man seriously, buy the Xperia Z! Or stay with your current device first, save money, then wait for Sony's next flagship with Snapdragon 600 chipset, or wait for official release of HTC One or Galaxy S4

That's all I can say, good luck man!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hellonasty:
S3 a faster update and XS don't have update!!!! Sony forget people... spend your money for nothing!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Member90:
Where u get that information? Bcoz sony already announce XS, XGo and XSL will get JB in the end of March..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nrdl:
Easy: S3

And if Xperia has locked bootloader... Don't even think about it.

My opinion.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pedrofigo:
I really appreciate all your comments.

After almost 2 years with my Xperia Neo just ordered my Galaxy SIII…was really tending to Xperia S but…

Just hope I don´t regret my choice because after all this time with my Xperia Neo I must say it was the best phone I had.

Thank you all

Then go back and read it all again.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e6bwhiz:
This is happening on an HTC Desire Z (A7272) with Android 2.3.3. A few days ago I was unable to input the pattern to unlock my phone. It wasn’t that I was putting in the wrong code or anything. The problem is as my finger slides over the pattern “buttons” the bottom three buttons don’t register. It is not that the bottom portion of the touchscreen is dead. It shows a green line connecting to the tip of my finger through the button. It just won’t turn the button green (or red for that matter).

I performed a complete factory reset today. It didn’t fix the problem. The only way for me to unlock it is to slide the keyboard out and have the pattern screen turn sideways. It then allows me to input the pattern. I took a photo of what is happening and attached it to this post. It shows that my finger has slid from the top center button, through the center button and over the bottom button. You can see the green line there, but the button itself doesn’t register it. I have also recalibrated the touchscreen after the factory reset. I’m out of ideas. There was no obvious cause of damage or anything (like dropping it). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi.

I've had several tries formatting and installing ARHD30.1 restoring my previous using NAND backup, until I finally managed to install ARHD30.1 correctly.

But since then, I have a notification, every several hours, of 'Damaged SD card'.

Does it refer the internal SD card or my external SD card? through the files manager I can access both my internal and external SD cards.

How do you suggest to check if it is a ROM issue or a real card issue?

Should I try installing ARHD22.4 or restore my NAND backup again, to see if the issue continues, or is there any other, simple way to check it?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch0ka:

[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
Dears,

Sorry for the silly question but i haven't enough experience in this field

what is the difference between hboot version 0.98.2000 and 2.00.002 and 7.xxx

i have htc desire s with s-off and hboot 0.98.2000 , is there a need to upgrade ?? and what will be the benefits and disadvantages ?

sorry alot , and thanks in advance
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
AW: [Q] difference between hboot versions

The hboots based on the 2.00.0002 (2.00.2002 and 7.00.1002) have an extra partition (split from the /cache partition) for /system/lib. Most custom Roms ignore this partition, so that they work on any hboot version, but some ROMs require one of these hboots (this would always be stated in the op).

2.02.0002 is the hboot version that came with the ics ruu, and has a different partition number for the extra partition.
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
Many thanks for your illustration , i really got the point

so for me as indicated above for my boot version , i have already installed ViperSaga_2.1.3 ROM and working fine for me , this is to ensure that there is no need to upgrade my hboot version ,, am i right ??
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
AW: [Q] difference between hboot versions

Yes, that's correct. When you choose to install a new Rom, remember to check whether it needs a new hboot version (if it doesn't say anything you can assume it will work with any hboot).

Or you could install a newer hboot (2.00.2002 or 7.00.1002) next time you change Rom anyway, then you won't need to worry about it any more.
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
I would recommend changing your hboot from revolutionary.0.98 to say the 7.xxx as there seems to be some issues in the revolutionary.0.98 not clearing data properly during a wipe affecting things like wifi etc.

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

― Oscar Wilde
[HTC Desire S] shetoshandasa:
Big thanks , i will proceed in upgrading my hboot :)
[HTC Desire S] amdr:
7.xxx is revolutionary version of 2.00.2002 with number higher than (revolutionary s-off) 6.xx so that you could easily flash it via fastboot. If you have 0.98 then you can flash 2.00.2002 shipped with official ics update. Some say that 7.xx have some issues with fastboot commands, with 2.00.2002 everything work just fine.

To be precise You wil not boot Sense 4 roms when using hboot 0.98 and 6.xx.
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
AW: [Q] difference between hboot versions

No, 2.00.2002 is basically the same as 7.00.1002, main difference is the version number. They're both based on 2.00.0002, which came with the ota/ruu s starting 2.x. The ics ruu came with 2.02.0002.

Edit: that's also not correct. Most sense 4 roms work with any hboot version.
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
The partition only really makes a difference in odexed roms i believe.

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

― Oscar Wilde
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
AW: [Q] difference between hboot versions

Well, odexed roms take more space on /system, which is why thantos2024 moved /system/lib to the new partition, to have enough space on /system.
[HTC Desire S] uarepeople:
I want to upgrade my HBoot. Not sure which version to go with, what are the benefits of 7.00.1002 over 2.00.002 or 2.02.0002? Will it make my phone S-ON if I do? I only use Andromadus AOSP and that doesn't require either of these HBoots but I'd rather upgrade just in case I use something in the future that requires either of them.
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
If you're s-off you can upgrade to either 7.00.1002 or 2.00.2002 (which are practically the same).

HBOOTs 2.00.002 and 2.02.0002 are the ones that came with ruus, the only way to install them (if there were any point) is to flash an RUU (and make your phone s-on).
[HTC Desire S] uarepeople:
Okay, so flashing 2.00.2002 will work and won't disturb my S-OFF? I want to be absolutely sure before I do it.
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
If you're on 0.98.x, yes. If you're on 6.98.x, it won't update because of the version number (you can still flash 2.00.2002 using the 'dd if= of=' method) .

In some cases ISPs have mac address filtering which could lead to connecting, but not being able to dl/up. Worse part is if you're not with a router but for example a dongle, they might not be able to detect the address or atleast those are the lies my ISP has been telling me.
