It's a bug, Sony are aware of it and should be fixed soon. A full factory reset can fix the problem.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treoking:
Many thanks!! I hope that Android 4.2 update fix the problem, but at the moment I will try to reset...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPWOA:
There is already a topic about it created by me!

And the LED notifications work but only when Stamina Mode e OFF!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ash_c64:
Some phones LEDs dont work with stamima mode on or off like mine! Had to do the factory set twice to get it fixed.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsteppa:
Same here.

I don't know why people keep talking about the Stamina mode, it's know that the LED doesn't work for many people, with and without Stamina mode.

And like I said, I also had to do a factory reset TWICE until it worked for me.

But I would also suggest when setting up the phone for the first time, not to sync, but to install everything manually, like wifi and installing apps.

After that is done you can sync, should work after all that.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00431:
You saying that the notification light is working for you 'in Stamina Mode' ? - It only works for me when SM is off.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treoking:
I reset my Xperia Z once and the LED works perfectly... ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ash_c64:
I don't think that's what he is saying. People ASSUME that when people complain about LED not working, they automatically think that the person complaining is using stamina mode. We all know that when in stamina mode the LEDs are switched off to save battery. But some handsets have a problem where LEDs are not working even when stamina mode is switched off. To fix that we had to do factory reset and still some peoples handsets are still not working.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmsq:
I also found that my LED does not work for notifications, first thing Sony said was to disable Stamina Mode, well unfortunately that was already disabled, so what else could it be?

I guess it is a bug, because factory resetting twice my phone the LED still did not work, sadly.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aw1007:
Turn off stamina mode and restart your phone.I got mine working this way without any factory reset .
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jigarpatel22:
I have one query for notification LED.

MY notification LED works for SMS, EMAIL.

but I am using "talk" application to google chat, on your phone does it shows notification for newly received reply.

Mine it's not showing any notification. Wanted to confirm before I do factory reset, since phone is fully configured.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T89:
Hi everyone,

I know there is a lot of backup apps but I've not found one that physically backs up the app and then restores it (re-installs) after installing a new rom.

Can anyone suggest an app that will do this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
You can use Titanium Backup for when you are rooted and Carbon for when you are not rooted or you do have root. Both are good but Carbon doesn`t require root.

Btw i would only backup user apps and data and no system apps.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T89:
I have titanium backup, but last time it didn't actually backup the installed apps only the data. Is that the case still? Or will I have to go ahead and re-download all the apps?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Usualy it also backs up user data as well as the apps. Maybe you chose the wrong backup option?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] molesarecoming:
adb backup is always there, thats google own integrated backup agent inside your nexus. trigger it via shell or nexus toolkit.

i've tried carbon though and im blown away.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptrm2:
why wouldn't you back up system apps?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Because they cause problems most of the time if you restore them on another rom or after upgrading a rom.

Re: Screenshot of settings-&gt;more...

Can I send files through the wifi direct. Like the s3
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] van2z:
Re: Screenshot of settings-&gt;more...

As far as i know, file transfer is one of built-in features of wifi direct networks, so xperia should have this possibility. Otherwise, i saw some apps in google play, which let you to have access from one device to another's file system via wifi direct.

Sorry, can not check file transfer at the moment because cyanogenmod10 on my galaxy s2 doesnt support wifi direct yet. But i guess it should work properly on xperia.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperiasblack:
R: Screenshot of settings-&gt;more...

You can use wifishoot if 2 device have wifi direct

Or fast file transfer if only one of 2 device have wifi direct
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x102x96x:
both devices must have wifi direct.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperiasblack:
R: Screenshot of settings-&gt;more...

With fast file transfer you can use an kind of transfer differend but like wifi direct so

If your device dont have wifi direct you can send with hotspot

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilor:
Hello,

is there a possibility to backup files in /system? I did changes in /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl and I also want to backup my "Avast Anti Theft" Installation.

I think these are the files I need to backup:

/system/app/com.avast.android.antitheft.apk

/system/etc/com.avast.android.antitheft.backup.enc

I read about cusom_backup_list.txt but I think this only works with CM7 based Roms. I use SlimBean (link).

I want backup these files even if i do a full wipe. How can I do that?

Thanks for Help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Christiaan91:
You can just copy the files to your external sdcard (or some place else that doesn't get wiped). AFAIK titanium backup can backup avast anti theft apk and data.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilor:
Thanks for your reply.

Avast anti theft would work over Titanium Backup.

I made myself a bash script for that.

#!/bin/bash

if [ "$1" == "backup" ]; then
adb pull /system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl backup/
adb pull /system/app/com.avast.android.antitheft.apk backup/
adb pull /system/etc/com.avast.android.antitheft.backup.enc backup/
elif [ "$1" == "restore" ]; then
adb root
adb remount
adb push backup/gpio-keys.kl /system/usr/keylayout/
adb push backup/com.avast.android.antitheft.apk /system/app/
adb push backup/com.avast.android.antitheft.backup.enc /system/etc/
else
echo "myDroidBackup"
echo "./backup.sh backup........make the backup"
echo "./backup.sh restore.......restore the backup"

any help will be highly appreciated.

attached is what i got on the stuck screen
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Christiaan91:
Did you pull out the cable?

Did you pull out the battery? (Won't recommend it, wait till it dies then pull out)

If you did these things allready. Put the battery back, does it do anything? Or does it do anything when you try to recharge? If nothing (or only showing you the battery) you probably need a USB jig.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] frdnoer:
Hi All,

Sorry fo my bad english.

I am a dead meat a few days ago as my XMP totally dead.

It was happened when I was trying to flash back my XMP from ICS back to GB when suddenly the USB cable got unplug by accident.

The process went error, and my XMP totally dead. Only vibrates after the power pushed without logo flashing.

I tried to take out the battery, sim card and etc but nothing happened. It able to get into flash mode but not detected by PC.

Find this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1568792 and flashing with Xperia_2011_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf file (running well) but not get my phone back.

Trying to flash again with ICS ftf but also still not working.

So sad, like Milven http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1863171.

So I found out the solution (even I do not want to try again if its really the solution) but this is working and get my phone back on with a brand new.

Step:

1. Go to this page http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/

2. Download and install the updater software

3. Once step 1 and 2 done, plug in the phone to PC (flash mode)

4. Run the program from step 1 and follow the instruction to do update on the air.

5. Get your phone back on after all done.

Hope it might help anybody else who face the same problem as mine. :silly:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] my_username:
This is something I've been really hopping to see once ICS came to the TB, and I doubt I'm the only one. Anybody agree they'd like to see an ICS MIUI port for TB?

Also, once upgraded to official ICS, is it possible to downgrade back to Gingerbread? I don't use my TB anymore as my main phone, so flashing radios and such wouldn't be an issue for me.

Edit: I just read that you can, indeed, downgrade back to Gingerbread, so disregard my second question.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Jedi:
You would need a dev that does muiu to make it and there was really only one guy that made it for the bolt. He name is droid vicious. He has moved on since long ago. The one issue with miui on the bolt was they could never get MMS to work. Think that's why we never saw a lot of devas working on it.

It would be great to see one but reality is most likely never going to see it. I know Santod awhile back was dabbling with miui but he has never said anymore on it. He has a lot on his plate with I think 4 ROMs for the bolt. He is really the last dev for the bolt. Liquid and twisted are iffy as they moved on to newer devices.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Santod made a gb version of miui for some guy on rootzwiki.com and the dude said he only wanted to have it so he could sell the phone. It kind of pissed him off so he never posted. I don't know if his version had working mms or not. I'm not a fan of miui and i don't think santod is either.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Jedi:
Ah that's why he never released it. Shame as I wanted to try it before sending my bolt back for the rezound.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5158795:
I'm not tech saavy - I'll try to remember what all I did as best I can.

I rooted my s3 a few months ago based on some detailed instructions found online - no issues. The method used involved clockwork mod or some such.

Fastforward to today - I was following these

http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...d-phone-with-rom-manager-full-backup-restore/

instructions to attempt to install liquidsmooth (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2108013) rom. Prior to doing anything, I had backed up everything on titanium backup and using the back up in rom manager. In step 3.1, "flash a recovery image," I didn't think I needed to do this, as I thought it was a part of rom manager.

At any rate, I proceeded onward, and after the phone finished making a back up, immediately after it started to install the new rom, the screen went black (I assume the phone turned off).

I'm currently unable to get it to turn on at all, taking the battery out didn't do anything, and when I plug it into the comp via USB, it doesn't seem to recognize the device.

So I'm quite sure I'm bricked.... But if anyone could provide any advice (or confirm I'm bricked), I'd very much appreciate it. I'm a broke med student on loans, and a new phone is going to hurt the bank account a lot :(

Thank you in advance

P.S. It's 3:40 am here now.. I need to get to sleep, but I'll check on the thread first thing tomorrow
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechMasta:
Sorry to say...

I am sorry to say but if your phone does not turn on at all or does not get in to recovery , It is hard bricked and there is nothing you can do about it.. :( try getting into download mode. If you can then something can be done. if not then...... :(

To get into download mode simultaneously press the volume down key , home key and power button. Tell me if the download mode screen comes..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5158795:
When the phone is plugged into the computer via USB and I hold the power button (or any other reset combo of buttons), the computer makes the sound like it realizes I detached the device, but then it makes a triple short 'bum bum bum' when the power comes back on (all of this with no apparent changes from the phone)

If it's helpful, a friend realized I downloaded an international ROM on an ATT phone
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaikun97:
the "bum bum bum" noise is the usb device malfunction error so chances are is that its definately hard bricked. there not really anything else you can do at this point.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechMasta:

) if you can then your fone can be saved otherwise... try it and inform us if your phone got into download mode or not..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NIMBAH:
Try get into download mode before you send it off. Hold volume down +power + home button. Do it without a USB cable inserted.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5158795:
Thank you both for the replies, my apologies for just noticing them and responding. My phone was definitely hard bricked (no combination of button pushing with or without the USB in would get the screen to change off black).

I sent the phone here

(I tried to do a URL, but my post count prohibits it. If you google search "brickedmyphone", it's the 1st hit)

for JTAG, and I feel the need to give the guy running it a plug. Very prompt replies prior to placing the order, and updates given throughout. The same day he received the phone, it was fixed and mailed back out. Total turnaround time, including shipping, was 5 days (received it today, phone was packaged securely and in perfect /working/ condition). Just need to reactivate the sim tomorrow (activated an old iphone with another sim on my number).

Thank you all again for the help!

please help...:(:(
[HTC One X] ViktorN:
Did you unlock the bootloader? If not, your warranty is still good and they can fix the problem in a store. If you did unlock the bootloader, there is a slight chance they won't notice it anyway. I am fairly certain that this is a hardware issue, but could you tell me what you did with it before the problem occurred?
[HTC One X] Tony1998:
yes i unlock my bootloader and i have blade rom and xm kernel

yesterday

i was playing dead trigger and my battery temperature was 57!!!

and today screen is black but everything works

like sound and .....

the screen is black

so i think they cant aware i unlocked the bootloader

sorry for bad english :(
[HTC One X] ViktorN:
Your English is just fine. Hmm, my battery got hotter than that millions of times and there was no damage to the screen. I think I can't be of further assistance here because I'm almost 100% sure that it's a hardware fault. But could you just try to boot it into the bootloader and see if the display works there? Just to be sure. If it doesn't, I think you'll have to send it in for a repair :/ . Where are you from? There is a chance that they will fix it for free if you are in the European Union. Maybe some other countries have the same policy too.
