That's normal for the size change after repack. The actual size of untouched boot.img is about 6 mb.

Just try to unpack and repack without any edit then try to boot it. If you can boot it then something is wrong with the edit.

OK, I have a galaxy S2 I9100 (to be rooted) stock ICS 4.0.4 baseband version I9100DDLPC and build number IMM76D.XWLQ2.

+ I have an insane chip:(

I have gone through a lot of threads and I am confused.

I found the root guide here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=28178105

I want to follow the first step (for phones with brick bug).

After doing that, i want to get rid of my stock kernel. Can I flash the Siyah kernel through stock recovery? Which version of Siyah kernel is the latest while being safe from the brick bug?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
Just flash a custom kernel via Odin and you'll have root access and you don't have to worry about the brick bug anymore (Siyah is safe). Check www.gokhanmoral.com for the version you need for ICS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotdog125:
Thanks...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Read the thread for the particular version of CM you want to flash; read the first page for the instructions (which will be very clear) & follow those to the letter, then read the last 10-20 pages to get an idea of people's experiences with that version so you know what to expect.

Simple.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
And yes, custom kernels are safe from the whole brick bug-thing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Ive got to say that the brickbug only applies to 4.0.4 stock firmware.

Its not a case of flashing siyah etc and the brickbug is gone "forever".

Its only gone if you dont run 4.0.4 stock ever again.So if you have to revert back to a stock rom, pick GB or 4.0.3 for your country etc and you wont have to worry.

Only saying in case you dont know.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acse1:
you could also flash official 4.1.2, that should not contain the brick bug.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thejosetree:
I can confirm that Xperia V has different screens too. It's exactly the same case as Xperia TX. There are two panels, one made in China with mediocre viewing angles and poor contrast and other made by SONY with excellent viewing angles and great contrast.

For checking what do you have (root required):

- Download Terminal Emulator

- Type su (Permission grant)

- Type dmesg

- Found panel vendor
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] andrasandhi:
ok, please check this.

it look likes i have sharp panel
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thejosetree:
Ok, so it seems that there's three different panels :eek:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] blackcat510:
Well, I can't find mine :|

if I search for string mipi, just get the result: ECO MODE OFF

if I search for string panel, I get no result ...

But I have heard my friends in VN said that V has some kinds of screen too :D

Mine shows great black :P, not grey :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Gasai Yuno:
You can't find it because dmesg is a queue, and as such, has very limited size.

If you need boot-time messages, you have to fetch them after a restart.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Bozek:
And how?

Sorry, I don't notice this word: "after". :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Gasai Yuno:
Using dmesg as explained above.

You could also do

$ su
# dmesg > /sdcard1/dmesg.txt
# exit
$ exit

and simply view the dmesg.txt file on your SD card from your PC.

“dmesg > /sdcard1/dmesg.txt” redirects the output of dmesg to the file dmesg.txt in /sdcard1/ which is the SD card on 9.1.x. With 9.0.x you probably would need to use /sdcard_ext/ instead?

If you do “dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt” the file will be stored in the phone's internal memory.

Differrences

Hi!

I'm about to buy an xperia v. Can you guys investigate the differences between screen types? It would be also halpful to know how can we distinguish between them without reading the log. (Since i want to check it at the store.)

Thank you guys!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] cpumaster:
I have a feeling that the screens are different depending on what countries you live in. Don't know witch country has what screen.

I am from Sweden and have a Sharp screen. I am satisfied with the sharp screen, good blacks and god weaving angles.

But it would be very interesting to see a side by side between all the tree screens.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] jumika:
I'm from hungary and unfortunately V is not distributed here officially, so i could probably get my hands on an asian import. It would be good to know which countries got which screen.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Georges2251:
Does the phone have to be rooted?

But well, to me it has excellent viewing angles, so I assume it's Sony.

Also, if you check different review sites, some say the screen is amazing with great angles, others say the viewing angles suck, so even review units were different, I think the units were distributed randomly tbh
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] andrasandhi:
true.

i have sharp panel then i dont have viewing-angle issue here.

it looks like normal,no washed color,blurry or whatever. i can still read the text at many angle-view.

im from indonesia, may some countries in asean/asia had sharp panel.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] josephnero:
Sharp is good.Sony is better i think
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] datagubben:
I think Sharp is OK, better than tmd but not as good as Sony vendor. :confused: So saturation is the culprit, some like a bit lighter and some a bit darker..

I looked at this video and my phone (LT25i) with Sharp panel is somewhere inbetween, its not as bad as the one to the left, but not as dark black as the one to the right.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVR-A_sMFk0

So maybe Sharp is medium good?

Edit: I put a some light above the screen (like in the video) and the screen looks more black now... :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] o>c:
Ha, when the phone was first released and was troubled by the "yellow" screen issue, I read from some Japanese discussions that the screens are made by Chimei and AUO, maybe they do OEM for the Japanese makers.

where did you buy your phone ? im thinking about buying the xperia v but i would have to buy it from ebay. I live in the united states, and i want to make sure a don't get poor quality panel :\
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thejosetree:
I think that there's more chances to get the SONY panel buying the phone directly from SONY store or an authorised dealer like Amazon.

And yes, panel made by SONY it's the best. High quality IPS display with great contrast and great viewing angles. Much better than Sharp.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] XperiaCrazy:
I got mine from Singtel but Sony screen :laugh:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] datagubben:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] o>c:
You can't really tell what screen you're getting unless you check it in person or got someone to check it for you.

I got my Xperia V from a chain electronics store in Hong Kong, it comes with a Sharp screen and I am satisfied with it.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sdam87:
unfair

that is not fair Sony shouldn't be able to do this. Charging the same amount of money for devices with such different characteristics. They should at least identify the devices so we can know for sure what we are buying.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] imgrshpr:
100% agree with that. im from USA. i bit the bullet and bought the Xperia T online. it had the TMD panel. its awful. ill prob return it and try again.

theres just no way to tell unless you root the phone, and nobody will be willing to do that for you
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] XperiaCrazy:
I did before posting, and it says that my phone has sony panel
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] datagubben:
Everybody I asked have Sharp panel in Sweden.

I think Sharp is good, nice viewing angles, black saturation etc.

I am satisfied! :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] lthawker:
I have sony panel...which is better?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] body150165:
Well, at least we have a way to find out AFTER we paid for the phone.

The more interesting part would be to identify the the different equipment by serial numbers.

As with every manufacturer, Sony will handle different serial numbers for a certain range of phones which are equipped with the same panels.

I dont want to ask you to publish all your serial numbers.... but if I want to buy the phone, I want to know what i will buy.

As I am living in Thailand (no, I am not thai), the return policy here is not as generous as in western countries. And no matter what display the phone has, the dealer will say: "what do you want? Its working, right?" And from a certain point of view, he is right with this.

Anyway... any idea to identify the display from the box and its stickers?

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shubri:
Just bought V , sold Acro S.

Havent rooted it yet but screen is awesome, comparing to that yt video i would say that is Sony.

But I have small problem, when vieving under angle there is bright line on the middle right of the screen. Not notecable in normal use, only under sharp angle or specific colors on the screen.

Line is about 1cm long and 1mm wide. It is just brighter than other parts of the screen, if tested with "service" mode on all colors it is noticable but most on white.

What this could be? Should i return it to the seller?

Thank you in advance!

I want to buy Xperia V, but I do not know how to buy a Sony screen model could have.

I wanted to ask those who got a Sony screen, have a special code?

Or have a specific model number?

Or something like these?

Home audio & video forum: will Sony switching to Sharp

affect quality?

Based on things i've read and products i've used this

is not a change that will affect us, as sharp has a good

quality record and the specs easily match the requirements.

Of course, it's prefferable to have sony parts in a sony

device...but that was allready proven to be economically

inefficient a long time ago.

Just my two cents - i also have "sharp panel" in dmesg :)

Yes, i can confirm the Xperia V having totally different screen to the market.

Here is what I found in Hong Kong Sony Style shops, one of a demo it should be using IPS monitor, which it is provide MUCH MORE BETTER screen quality.

Let see this: (both of the is Xperia V, left is SonyStyle demo, right is mine is sharp panel)

ttp://img832.imageshack.us/img832/6348/img0771k.jpg

You can see the touch firmware version number in that IPS's XV is call "4a", but in my Xperia V it is a 4.1.2 upgraded and cannot be see about the touch screen firmware version but i remember it is "55" when 4.0.4.

The demo that one it definitely is using IPS monitor that providing REALLY REALLY GOOD QUALITY. As I heard some people working for HK Sony said, by Sony need to control the cost of Xperia V, so most of the Xperia phone using cheaper and bad quality TN monitor for Xperia phone, not only Xperia V, TX, Z also.

Hi

Is there a way to completely disable the camera flash on an I9300? I have a problem where the flash flashes on and off at random, when the phone is locked, when I'm at the gym listening to music, when I'm asleep and the whole room flashes up in light. It's bizarre, I've flashed a new stock Jellybean ROM etc - but it doesn't fix it. I guess it's a hardware problem for some reason. I have dropped it a few times.

I'd like to completely disable the flash. I guess it is possible somehow, but I don't have the know-how...

Anyone? I'll be eternally grateful :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bhaskell:
I've read a couple other posts were people have had a similar problem... So I'm just starting this thread for FYI..

When I downloaded and flashed the latest TWRP2 my phone would no longer boot or enter recovery... The phone would simply bootloop. I was lucky enough that I could get the phone into download mode and I was able to ODIN a previous version of TWRP...specifically 2.4.4.0 and then the phone booted again and recovery worked. I've also seen issues with TWRP 2.4.3.0 and some ROM installs which go to black screen during install....forced to hold power to reboot phone and then rom boots...

So if you get the bootloop after installing the latest TWRP, simply use ODIN 3.7 and grab a tar file of either CWM or older TWRP and install to fix.
