[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sailicalvin:
I have a SGH-1727 running cm10.1 nightlies and ever since I flashed to cm10.1 my battery just goes nuts. It constantly overheats and drains 30% in a matter of minutes. I have swapped in a new battery same issue. I set the CPU gov to conservative and limit background processes to 4, still happens. I set a plain wallpaper and set screen brightness to dimmest possible, disable wifi bluetooth etc. disable haptic feedback and vibration and backlights. Still happens. I downloaded some battery app and it said I didn't have any crazy partial wakelocks and I shut almost all my syncing and my battery gets to about 105 degree and drains crazy fast. So I figured it has to be something with the kernal and or cm10.1 so I went to do a full wipe and unroot and reflash the stock rom put my phone into download mode opened Odin and it wasn't there. I have reinstalled kies 3 times I have even just installed just the drivers 3 times, I have tried 3 different computers running win 7 and 8. I am using a samsung cable, I have tried different USB ports and every time I plug my phone in it is not recognized by my computer. USB debugging is set up and frankly I am at a loss to why both of these issues are occurring. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
Have you tried with the stock USB cable that came with the phone? The last time I used Odin I couldn't get the phone recognized no matter what (I was having similar issues to you), but when I tried the stock cable it worked perfectly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] taranis17:
1. Disconnect your phone.

2. Uninstall the Samsung USB drivers app from your PC (you do have this installed, right?)

3. Google for the latest drivers for the Skyrocket and download them. Don't install yet.

4. Download USBDeview from here (pick either x86 or x64, depending on your OS)

5. Open it up, highlight everything that says Samnsung and uninstall them.

6. Reboot. (don't skip this step)

7. Install the latest official Samsung USB drivers you downloaded in step 3.

8. Reboot (don't skip this step)

9. Connect your phone directly to a USB port on the back your computer. DON'T use a hub or a front connector port.

10. Let the driver install wizard do it's thing. Check Device Manager and see if any drivers failed to install.

11. If everything installed, ODIN should work. If not, you could have a bad port on your phone, a bad cable, or something else.

Good luck.

So I follow these instructions to the T and no dice. I have been using the original USB cable that came with the phone and I have also tried another Samsung USB cable. Every time I plug the phone in it says that this is an unrecognized device.

Just a thought, this phone has been rooted and flashed multiple times however the flash count is 0 and the it says it has the stock samsung OS. Would a ROM issue cause my phone to be "unidentifiable?"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahanddeem:

Something is borked in your driver library. You'll have to manually select the right drivers in DM. No PNP for you it seems...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sailicalvin:
It seems like a driver issue but I have tried to connect it to 5 different computers all running different OSs and it is still not recognized. Is it possible the ROM screwed up the device ID or something along those lines?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] captainsurrey:
im basically in the same boat, my phone was running CM 10.1 for a while no problem, but then i suddenly started getting major overheating and battery drain issues.

when i tried to restore to stock, my pc did recognize my phone, but ODIN kept failing. I had to do it literally about 20 times. I did manage to restore to stock in ODIN but still having the same issues, although not quite as bad.

I did try to go back to CM 10.1 again to see if that made a difference and it got worse again with overheating and battery drain. When i tried to root it, it again kept failing in ODIN and i had to do it many times until it worked.

I went back to stock second time, again odin kept failing and had to do it many times. It still has overheating and batter issues. but its manageable with two batterires and frequent charging.

one thing with charging is it will overheat and stop charging unless i charge with back cover off ( still charges slow) or just turn the phone off and charge (charges fast)

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] MTP:
Hi to all members! I would just like to share to you the ring tone I'm using on my xda. Kinda different from all other ring tones commonly used. Here I used Windows XP Speech module program (in Control Panel, you'll find this menu). Go to Text to Speech tab and just type in any message you want, and let the computer speak for you. Just use Windows Recorder or any other sound recording program (i.e. Nero Wave Editor) to capture the digital voice generated. Enhance the sound and save it as .WAV file. You can download the sample Uhhh, planning to attach the sound file (my ring tone) but, there seems to be no option for attachment. Anyway, after you created voice ring tones, load this as your ring tone, when you receive incoming calls, your friends will be surprised and think they're at the Airport (something like "paging Mr......, you have an incoming call").

On the other hand--the SMSExport I installed in my xda doesn't seemed to work..it cannot even "see" my previous and new text messages. Is there any other way I can export my SMS text messages to computer (possibly upload using ActiveSynch), so I can have them printed or archive to disk? Tried also, Message Master Client Server, however it can't transmit SMS using SIM card install (or the xda radio system itself). You have to use an external phone (via infrared) to transmit SMS. Anybody can help us out on this?

Finally, I still have other things to share, but I cannot dig them out from my hard disk...perhaps next time..

Regards to all!

Credit:

Scott of Scotts Roms for posting the Deodexed OTA found here

shawn12350 for posting the stock green WIFI toggle addon here

What is it?

its the OTA zip provided by Scott with some tweaks added

the first zip is just the plain deodexed OTA with the wifi toggle

the second zip is one with verizon bloat removed (NEEDS TESTING)​

i personally use the first zip because i use some of the bloat but both are here for download

DISCLAMER: i am not responsible for what happens to you or your device if you flash these zip files (examples being your wife leaving you for a cat or the world exploding)

How to get rid of the WiFi Notification (i think)

1. tap and hold on the wifi notification and tapp app info

that will bring up android system force close it it will keep the wifi notification away untill you togglr something

Problem is: After doing a factory reset I don't know how to finally install the custom rom. :confused: Could somebody help me with that? If I manage to get it working on my Xperia Z I will write a step by step-guide to install custom rom with that phone. :cool:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulrgod:
Hi There,

Maybe you should have posted this into the forum of the Rom.

But to install it - once you have copied the Zip file to your device - you select 'Install from Zip' from the main menu of the recovery - select the Zip file and wait while it installs - reboot - Done!

Cheers

Paul
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doki81:
at CWM..please select install zip from external sd. then you will finally install the rom. did u managed to go into CWM interface? i assume yes since u already done factory reset.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harrytipper:
So far I managed to install the advanced stock kernel and get root on my device (using fastboot.exe and BusyBox). So after that I enter recovery mode using Quick Boot. Then I have to do factory reset as found in preferences on my device. So far I think I got it.

But after that I have to wipe my data, system and cache. How do I do that and go on with the steps upcoming? After doing that I normally have to configure the device again for letting me use Recovery Manager and stuff like that, or don't I? So how should I do the full wipe?

Thank you for your suggestions so far!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doki81:
the next step you should do is to flash the CWM..

follow guide in this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2167381

afterward you can do full wipe from the CWM and proceed to use CWM install zip function to flash the new aur rom.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harrytipper:
Sorry, I thought this was the right place to ask, because I don't want to spam in other forums. Maybe you could move it?

I tried both ways, copying the zip file to root of the device itself and onto sd card (RomAur V1.1 XZ C6603.zip, FAT32 formatted 16 gb sd card). But Recovery Manager doesn't show any of these files when I chose to install from sd card.

sorry for my english, I'm not a native speaker :silly:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harrytipper:
ok, I'll do that again. I tried this yesterday already and so I do have a few questions:

from the guide you sent me:

download the advanced stock kernel (contains recovery)

reboot device into fastboot mode

Code:

adb reboot bootloader

now flash the recovery using

Code:

fastboot flash boot kernel.img

[where kernel.img is the name of the file image u downloaded]

thats it!

As I use "adb reboot bootloader" it keeps telling me "error: device not found", even though its connected to PC using fastboot mode and "fastboot devices" shows my Xperia Z as connected in fastboot mode. What do I do wrong?

Second question: Is the advanced stock kernel with recovery the one I already installed? Z_DooMLoRD_insecure_FW-350.img? Or Z_DooMLoRD_CF-Auto-Root-ported_FW-350.img? So which kernel do I use in the last step? :confused:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harrytipper:
I finished it and I just made some stupid mistake in my procedure (I was alredy wondering how Xperia Z can be so hard to put a new rom into..). I'll write a How-To for newbies the until monday. :) Thanks for your help so far!

How to install RomAur (and other ROMS) on Sony Xperia Z

This is how I managed to install RomAur at my Xperia Z. After realizing my mistake I noticed it's not much different to other android devices.

1. So first to install kernels and get root I unlocked the boot loader using this really good descriptions:

http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/

http://www.techethon.com/root-sony-xperia-z-tutorial-easy-how-to/

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2153261

2. Then I started the device in fastboot mode by pressing volume + while connecting to PC and used fastboot.exe (shift+right click in the containing folder to start cmd) typing in this:

fastboot flash boot Z_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-350_v2.img

IMPORTANT Z_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-350_v2.img was contained in the same folder as fastboot.exe. Maybe there is already another new kernel to do this with, this one worked for me. Starting the device in fastboot mode can also be achieved by usind this command before flashing with the new kernel: adb reboot bootloader

3. Anyway after flashing I typed in this: fastboot reboot

4. Then I've put the zip file onto my micro sd (fat32 formatted, 16gb) and restarted the device disconnected from PC. This is what I've done wrong :silly:

While the device went on I pressed volume + when the SONY screen showed up and the led started to flash in several colors.

5. Now in the menu wiped/cleared/formatted everythin except the external sd-card and installed the "update" by using volume buttons to navigate and power button to confirm.

This is what worked for me. I might have forgotten some stuff so in case there might be something to add, just reply on this!
