Hello,

I present edited firmware from Vodafone DE.

Flashing Instructions: (need CWM)

0. Install full FW.13 Vodafone DE first (THX Petulinka1)

1. Copy downloaded MT15i_4.1.B.1.13.zip to SDcard

2. Flash custom kernel with cwm (Vengeance) or stock kernel .562 and do root and install cwm

3. Go to CMW and apply FULL WIPE (factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik-cache)

4. Advanced/Mounts and Storage/Format cache/data/system

5. Install zip from SDcard

6. Reboot

I removed bloatware from Vodafone DE, others apps I didn`t touch

ENJOY !!!

EDIT: You use kernels only based on fw.13, stock (you need root and cwm) or custom kernel (for unlocked BL), for example [KERNEL][ICS] Vengeance [NEO/L][1.32][18/02/13] (THX Rachit Rawat)

Sorry for my English...

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] martinusbe:
Thanks,

Going to test this as soon as i can.

Probably only by the weekend tho, little bussy
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] gencho81:
To test it is one good idea ,but How to do it is other thing.

This is only one flashable zip of the new firm.

So my question is Witch kernel to use ?I know it is ICS so any ICS based will be good,but is there stock .13 kernel to try on Neo.

Witch is the recommendet kernel from you?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] steveboss:
Re: [ROM][FW.13]STOCK&gt; 4.1.B.1.13+ROOT+BUSYBOX+CWM-removed bloatware

You use kernels only based on fw.13, stock (you need root and cwm) or custom kernel (for unlocked BL), etc. Vengeance 1.32 (included cwm) :)

i install it to try but all i get is FC com.android.phone and keyboard FC .

I flash the kernel you offer.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] steveboss:
You must install full FW.13 Vodafone DE first. I added instructions to the 1.post.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:
Why I need the zip file, what does it do?

The firmware is by Vodafone so I presume it removes the customizations (boot animation and so on) and not only bloatwares, it is exact ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] petulinka1:
If you flash vodafone fw, just wipe and install zip. You'll get unbranded fw.... Or I didn't get what's going on....

Just got this and want to root it, but I'm not sure which model it is. It's the WiFi + LTE version, but is it 5100, 5110 or 5113?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheony81:
on box or back of tablet on sticker it should say model num.

or go to setting and about device and model should tell you..
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PDADoc:
I know, but see, this is exactly where I get confused. On both the box, and in the status section and on the back of the tablet the only device number (other than the IMEI) visible is SGH-i497, but everybody keeps talking about P51xx, etc.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheony81:
it might just be different models of att..I believe like if its like tab 1-2.there are just different models..
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PDADoc:
Fair enough. Thanks again!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigBot96:
It's an LTE model, so it's going to have a different model number. For instance: my Verizon galaxy tab 2 7.0 LTE is SCH-I705, whereas the wifi only version is a p3xxx.

The Verizon tab 2 10.1 LTE is an SCH-I915 is the VZW version of the tab 2 10.1

Also, http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/SGH-I497ZSAATT-gallery

Google is your best friend.

Also.. you can ONLY install ROMS/Kernels for your model. If you use a p5xxx mod, it will brick you.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PDADoc:
1) I'm rooted now.

2) I didn't think it was unreasonable to ask why I keep seeing P51xx instead of the numbering convention I'm used to seeing from Samsung (SGH-i4xx), and I already KNOW about that website, considering it's where I bought all of my accessories with my Samsung Account.

3) *SIGH* People love saying "Google is your best friend", as though I had not searched for an answer to my question before posting my question, which, I might add, I STILL don't have an answer to. All of the searching I had done BEFORE posting my question here STILL hasn't told me where those P51xxx numbers come from.

Thank you for your response, but at least the person who answered my questions earlier didn't assume I hadn't looked. I won't ask here again.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigBot96:
I just told you. The pxxxx tabs are WiFi only.. Hardware is completely different.

I wasn't trying to be an ass, sorry if it came across that way.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrao_n:
P5113 is u.s. wifi only tab 2 10.1. P5110 is international wifi only tab 2 10.1. P5100 is carrier version with mobile data and wifi.

After the JB update, the SMS/MMS notifications either don't show up, or disappear before I can click on them from the notification pull-down.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blockberd:
Hey folks,

I am dealing with a weird battery drain on my HTC Desire. First few facts about my device.

- It is running the latest radio

- It is running the Runnymede AIO V6.0.4.3 S.E

- It has the kernel gingercake 0.9 AVS

- No overclock

- smartass v2

- deadline I/O scheduler

- No change between a 2 year old avarage used battery and a brand new original battery

- Phone signal strength is same (4 to 5 bars)

- At both places its next to a PC

- No change in the settings what-so-ever during the 2 positions I am comparing and describing now...

-- The settings are:

--- WiFi on and connected (in both cases. Same signal strength as well)

--- No mobile data on

--- No difference of usage (waking phone up to check clock, notifications, what-so-ever)

--- No GPS

--- No Bluetooth

When I am at home and the phone is idling next to me on the mousepad it is losing maximum 10% - 20% from ~ 19:30 to 08:30. Between 07:30 and 08:30 my alarm goes of every 5 min for ~ 10 sec (yes, I have problems stepping out of the bed ;)). Looking at the battery history in Spare Parts+ the battery bar is falling slightly during the time.

So far no big deal. Actually it is a pretty good result and the phone would last few days like this... If I would not need to go to work...

And there is my problem. During work (~ 10:00 - 19:00) the phone lies next to me on the table. Same usage as at home (except the alarm, of course :D). The battery loses 40% - 50% of battery power during that time! Just for lying around! Looking at the battery history visualizes really good when I am at home and at work. At work the battery bar is dropping like hell. Close to straight down da frelling hill! Comparing home and work it is pretty obvious when I am where.

I tried so many things but there is no real difference in the draining.

What I could observe (with the app G-Mon):

- In both cases I am locked to 1 particular tower (different towers but not switching between others)

- In both cases the locked on tower is about -60dBm to -70dBm

- At home there are 5 to 6 neighbour cells (one has so bad signal that its coming and going)

- At work there are 2 to 3 neighbour cells (same as above)

Does ANYONE has ANY idea what the frell is going on? why does it drop so hard at work and not at home? It is also not dropping so much if I am carrying it around or at my parents place (at my parents place the dropping is as much as at home).

All 3 places are not in the same city and at least some kilometers away.

Maybe someone else had the same issue and could figure out a solution. I am totally lost now. I tried soooo many things now and I am tired of that...

Kind regards,

Sebastian

Edit:

To further add to it... The ROM and device itself run very smooth without any other issue. Its just the battery drain that keeps frelling me.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
The phone is stressed at work :D

The only thing thing that changes from home to work is the network. Maybe you have a 2g network at home, and a 3g network at work. It's the only thing I can think of. I have never heard of battery drainage due to location.

In what conditions are you keeping the phone at work? High or low temperature could influence the battery life, or you keep it in the sun.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blockberd:
Thanks for the reply, abaaaabbbb63.

I also tried this and set the phone to GSM only (so it connects to EDGE only in both cases). I now changed it back to auto and will observe what happens.

It has the exact same conditions at work and home. No direct sun and close to the same temp. So no difference here neither.

Edit:

I added a screenshot to show what I mean. The peak in the middle is because I had to connect the phone to my PC to transfer some files. The more heavy drop in the last 3rd part is because I used it for MP3 player. The almost-flat line after that is... you guess it... the home part. The rest TILL the heavy drop shows the phone at work.

Again. There is no difference between the locations except the WiFi AP and the cell towers its connected to. I could pull out my hair because of that!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blockberd:
I made a second screenshot. I had to charge the phone at work so I charged it to 100% and then plugged it out. The first half on the screenshot is at work and the other half is just at home.

Please help me... I am almost out of hair... :(

It alomost looks like its draining while its NOT active... but I wouldnt understand that even less...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvsk69:
Install "Better Battery Stats" application. You can find the apk in the apps section. It will tell you exactly what is eating your battery and catch the culprit.

For instance in my case, Google currents was crunching my battery. I uninstalled it and battery is working super fine from then.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blockberd:
Hey,

thanks for the suggestion of the app. I installed it now and charing the phone to 100% so I can observe it in detail again. Will post details later.

But I have a small concern... If there is really an app draining the battery then a) the active bar in my screenshots would need to be blue during the complete drain part (at work) and b) I would have battery draining at home, too (if it would be an app).

Correct me if I might be wrong here...

Again... I only move the phone from home to work and from work to home without switching something on or off.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
Well the only thing I can see from here is that network signal had an effect at the drain. As soon as the solid green bar cuts off for the faded one, the battery drain improved significantly. What's weird though is that I often believe seeing green bars as good signal. However if it was good 3G signal then that might be something.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blockberd:
Yes. I also noticed that one. The thing is that at work I have only EDGE and at home I am able to login into HSDPA cell towers. But I dont use the mobile data at all. The phone is only connected to the cell towers for normal calls.

But the strange thing is that even if I force EDGE (or GSM) in the settings of the mobile connection it behaves the same way. Even though its connected through EDGE in both situations.

Maybe I am doing something wrong in my testing or whatever...

Anyway... battery is fully charged and BBS can start tracking for the next 4 hours at work now. Lets see.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blockberd:
So. I am at home again and had it running again as usual. Now with BBS.

I uploaded some screens again. You can see in the battery history that the drain is not really bound to the signal (notice the drain stopping at the end of the bar but the signal bar is not changing together with it).

If you need other screenshots or information from BBS, please do let me know what exactly you would need from that app.

Looks like your auto sync, data connection and music player is on always and taking most of the battery.

Turn off auto sync

Turn off data when you don't need

Turn off music and kill the player after you stop listening

But why does the drain stop at home without me changing anything? :(

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BraddahBoi808:
First of all, sorry if I posted this in the wrong forum or if it has been asked somewhere already, but I was not able to find it anywhere though Google and searching through this site.

Anyways, I was wondering if it is possible to fully and effectively unlock a AT&T S3 to use on the VZW network. I know vzw has a secured cdma network that only allows approved devices but with all the great devs out there, is there some wah to do it? Thanks for any input ! :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] djteotancolis:
I don't think you can do that as Verizon uses different lte bands and two its cdma network even tho it uses a sim! I could be wrong but I know it can only work the other way round but thats only on 3G tho
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
I have the same problem except the other way around...I want to convert a Verizon one to att. I already flashed a AT&T rom and have working voice and data, but only 2g which is so slow, I don't even remember how I lived with it. I'm thinking of just buying a motherboard from the att one and sticking it in my Verizon one. Does anyone know if the motherboard has the part I need for the radios, or is the radio separate?

Hey guys I was running a nightly of CM 10.1 and enabled full disk encryption with a pin. I decided to rebuild my phone so I flashed a new ROM through CWM however when it booted it was asking for the encryption password. The pin that I used previously won't work. I've tried re-flashing, factory reset (CWM), and ODINing the phone back to stock. None of which removes the encryption. Wtf do I do?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
Only way I know of -- factory reset after booting up
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tynen:
I can't factory reset from the ROM now because it won't accept my PIN.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RPelham:
From everything I've read and seen, once a device is encrypted the only way out is to ODIN back to the stock ROM.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
Nope. I did it when on stock. A simple factory reset set it right.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RPelham:
Yes however as he stated already he factory reset in CWM and it did nothing. On top of that since he flashed a new ROM the device no longer accepts his PIN once booted so factory reset from within the settings menu is a no go. Thus ODINing back to stock is the only way.

Sent from my Galaxy S3 on AT&T
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tynen:
This is really weird guys.. I ODIN'd the SECOND time to 4.0.4 and it fixed it. When I odin'd stock 4.1.1 it was still encrypted.....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alphahere:
Old thread but I restored stock recovery and that cleared encryption. Could not clear encryption with clockwork, philz, or TWRP.

I would like to listen to the radio through my XDA is it possible?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] mozart:
You can! But you wont like it... You can reveive internet radio-stations via the browser. It works! And then you have a 500€ radio with an original 60's transistorradio 'quality' sound (300 - 3000Hz) that plays very erratically (buffering....) and charges 1€ per few minutes for the downloaded Mbytes. (I love this kind of high tech reversed progress) :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] vpreHoose:
The RealOne player is MUCH better than Windows Media Player at streaming data. It keeps teh GPRS connection active by sending packets in the uplink (to guage the connection speed), while MP does not and teh GPRS connection times out every 60 seconds.

So i bought my xperia z on friday, (well thursday night as i working in the phone industry) and decided to test the hype....

So i had my phone im and out of bowls of water (about 15 times) bounced off walls, dropped from above my head several times onto wooden /tiles/concrete etc.

And to my surprise the phone with stood all of the attempts to break/water damage it.

But i noticed the phone needed to be charged so i unplugged the rubber seal to charge it and once finished decided to show off again to my friends( forgot to mention that i was at a birthday party drinking heavily) dunked the phone back into the water and it went crazy.

I FORGOT TO PUT THE SEAL BACK IN.....

. So my phone was water damaged..

As i was able to do an insurance.

So all in all, i have never attempted this with any other phone in my life (this was a first) but i was highly impressed with the resilience of this flagship from sony the xperia z....

There wasent even a mark on the anti shatter film that is on front and back of the handset.

So bottom line is that if you are prone to accidents or just not good with phones in general. THIS IS THE PHONE FOR YOU AS TESTED TO THE MAX BY ME...

Just to note that the camera was perfect the whole time leading up to the forgetting to put the seal in...

I also got a few cool photos from under water... :D

So thats my story.......
[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Moral of that story - get a charging dock ;)
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:

Did it die inmidiatly when you put in the water with out the port closed?

Wish if I could c ur face after the failure brank?

Anyway nice story
[Xperia Z General] jambotech:
That possibly could have helped. Haha.

Funny enough it didn't die.

I was still able to turn it on and bluetooth my photos that i had taken from the party to the new phone..

It did restart a few times and had like water marks on the underside of the screen near the charge port..

So presently suprise it still worked.

But i wont be doing this in a hurry again. :eek:

But good to know that if i spill a drink/use it in the bath and drop it down the toilet it would be fine.

I understand you might work in the industry, so do I, you must be a manger at a store with authority or something similar, as I know for a fact if I tried to exchange mine on the same basis as you did my manager would not allow me too....mainly because as soon as head office received it, they would charge the store the full cost of the handset for returning the phone which was BER. This charge would come out of the store's bonus profit meaning every consultant would be effected....pretty harsh for them when they had no involvement!

Hiya peeps, have some questions about changing the dpi on my transformer. Have been looking to download a good racing game eg, real racer2/3 gt racing ect but having no luck (not compatible). After doing some research i got to the conclusion that the compatability issue is down to dpi, right?. Well heres the next question, i have managed to get a download which appears to work up untill the screen res changes (i think) so would manualy changing the sreen dpi with a third party app allow it to run?. And finaly can anything go wrong using apps to change the dpi regularly?. Any help you can offer would be great TIA.

I don't think DPI is the problem, just downloaded RR3 on my tab and it works great!
