interesting. It does indeed sound like hardware issue. glad it works now.

yes.

but why use teenybin unless you are soft bricked? to unlock you should use freegee https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=edu.shell.freegee&hl=en
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
See but what I don't understand is why did it work with freegee the first time on this phone and not the other? Could the SPD stack have been modified wrong or something?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
what is SPD stack?

did you ever convert the phone to a nexus 4?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
No and I think I worded it wrong the file that

Has the download mode in it

Thank goodness for this! Came to my rescue after a soft brick. Thank you for this!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] REDFOCZ:
Just wanted to say thank you for this awesome tool. Since CM is now going to be officially supporting our phone. I pulled it out of retirement it was running nocturnal ROM on ICS 4.04. Used this to update the boot loader and recovery and it worked perfect. Just wanted to show my appreciation.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
Is it possible to make TeenyBins for other LG devices? I once had a LS970, used this to unbrick and install TWRP etc, but have since then downgraded to a Boost Mobile LG Venice. Now im not a BM fan but for now its what im using. Theres no unlocking the bootloader, or custom recoveries for it yet. Heck theres not even one custom rom for it because others cant unlock the bootloader. The UI is identical to the LS970 and E970, it does have a download mode identical, and even a hard reset. So I was wondering if it is possible to be made? I would need the key ingredients to try working on it myself or with others as there are some who have been waiting for others to do something and Im the type of person who believes that "if you want something done right, do it yourself." This crappy little LG Venice I have has potential, with a little CM10 or even a custom kernel to OC, this device can go so far. So any ideas or recepies to cook up a TeenyBin for it?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
you would need an unlocked bootloader for that specific device... along with custom recovery before even getting started with custom bins.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Crossvxm:
Oh so then i guess its far from possible. Ive heard of using a command with fastboot while in fastboot mode to oem unlock the bootloader, but its useless since this device doesnt have a fastboot mode, only Download Mode. If you even try that command on this device all that done is a simple reboot. I have seen people passing around a petition signing for unlocking bootloaders on Androidforums, but so far only 27 have signed it, which means there is a 4% success rate...

This device could go sooo far, but with out Step 1 (the bootloader unlock) there will never be a Step 2 (custom recovery) or Step 3 (ROMS).

If only there were a way.

Im on stock lg jellybean and rooted. Can i Unlock the bootloader with this?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] iamtha1:
Why not just use freegee from play store?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] lopez_angel3:
cause it says it could brick my phone and i could not enter download mode to restore a unbrick it in a warning before i unlock :<
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mikeylikey:
Not sure if you got it unlocked over on irc since I had to leave the office...sorry about that. Alt teenybin and sbl freegee is basically the same thing.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] lopez_angel3:
Whats sbl freegee??
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mikeylikey:
In freegee, you want to select the sbl method to unlock your boot loader.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] lopez_angel3:
But I dont know if i should do it because it gave me a warning that said that if something went wrong i could brick my phone and not enter download mode to recover it i guess a hard brick
[AT&T LG Optimus G] autoprime:
confirm you are rooted with the root checker app in the play store. then try to be on wifi... the freegee app will not brick you. yes its "possible".. but there hasnt been 1 brick yet. and the same possibility exists in teenybin with lgnpst. as long as you follow the directions(which are very straight forward) you will be fine.

as [MENTION=5045109]mikeylikey[/MENTION] said, use the SBL unlock method in freegee.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] lopez_angel3:
If it bricks will i be able to go in download mode?

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Gabxter101:
ok finally restore back to stock with the LGSNPT program but now i had to root the device again then unlock the bootloader again no problem!

but when everything is done without a sweat and try to go to the recovery the phone gets completely black screen ....

just like when i had to restore -__- i have no recovery i have no way to install a custom ROM even tho i installed the recovery via feegee
[AT&T LG Optimus G] WarEagleUS:
It almost seems like you've a pain in the ass soft brick. Try clearing everything/wiping everything and going again. Maybe try a different stock Rom perhaps an earlier build.

---------- Post added at 07:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 AM ----------

As an edit you could go without teenybin and just try a stock Rom. I'd an issue using teeny bin myself and it took me about five days and multiple flashes to actually get it back to factory to send in. Lol. Huge pain in the ass.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:

Lol yeah it would on a new one. His situation seems a bit like one I had earlier this year before the wife switched us to Verizon and the SGS4
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mr turtle droid:
I bet its because the efs partions screwed up my phoned touchscreen screwed up got a new one and ran a carbon ROM(best ROM I've ever touched) and decided it was pointless to use different software because LGS is pretty top notch but it is still helpful when installing a kernel for the stock ROM(1.8ghz over clock and for me I got down to 200 MHz devolted)

I was wondering which file should I flash in order to revert back to stock jellybean 4.1.2 , so that it can be unlocked later on , if not now.

There are two files : V20j and V11c. Which one to choose , and while selecting the dll file , which one to choose for at&t ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mikeylikey:
20j is jb. 11c is ics.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Rishi.:
Thanks for you reply.

I was trying to download both. But both of them got stuck at ~76/89% respectively.

I will try to download the JB one only now.

And thanks to the noob-friendly article written by the Devs. , I was able to flash the ALTBin succesfully and reboot into TWRP .

I will try to flash a new rom now.

---------- Post added at 02:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:38 PM ----------

Please let me know , what should be the safest path from here. I have booted in TWRP . and it seems I was also able to take a backup of my old system. The stock one , although it's not booting properly because something must have messed up the stock rom config. But anyways I have made a complete backup.

I am not sure if my device is fully unlocked ( bootloader ) , ( as when I used freegee , i only clicked on install Clockwork recovery , which failed and lead to this. ) It was rooted though for sure.

Although since I have flashed the Teeny ATLBins , so that should have unlocked the BL right ??

Now can I simply flash the Original Stock ROM of AT&T , ??

I am wondering that after flashing these bins will this make the device able to accept and flash any rom , I want ?? I loved the stock LG rom . I mean want to use it for a while , after all I paid for the Optimus UI too , when I bought their phone :P

In case if it's not possible to use the stock , then do let me know any fully stable rom if available.

Not willing to mess up anything from here on now , so waiting for you guys to comment. So I can proceed to something. :)

Thanks again for lending a helping hand.:cool:

Hi.

I cant enter download mode. I tried every thing. Even by holding both the volume keys ( when device was completely switched off) and then plugging it into the PC using data cable.

NO download mode.

My phone was working perfectly with Slim Been rom for several weeks, unlocked with FreeGee. Today Y rebooted my phone and after that the phone when from LG logo to blank screen.

It seems that I am HARD BRICKED but I don't know why...

Any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] drock212:
I don't believe you're hard bricked cause you're still getting LG logo. Sounds like it's just a soft brick. You need to start from scratch. Use LGNPST to flash stock firmware. Then freegee. Also go step by step from OP you might just need to use the second teenybin (Altbin). But again if your booting and you get LG logo you're not hard bricked just sounds like you don't have any sort of rom at the moment so the phone has nothing to load past the LG logo.

Hey guys!

Im thinking of buying the HTC One, but stuck between that and the Xperia ZL.

The reason i want the ZL is for the camera button and the UI - ESP. the UI, it's beautiful.

But then there's this, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2101920

A port of the Z (ZL, same thing) Launcher. This can be ported to any phone. WITH widgets!!

Now, i love the UI, but lets face it - Every spec and stat of the HTC One is better than that of the Xperia ZL. I have let myself down by not going the top of the line before, lots of regrets. I want to stick to the One, but for this Launcher, i need to root.

Would this be sufficient to root the phone and install the launcher? http://theunlockr.com/2013/03/19/how-to-root-the-htc-one-m7/

or do i need to S-OFF

Please, anyone! :)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chc31:
Thank you! And if I want to unroot I would just have to restore the original backup and that's it right? Is there a way to unroot that you know of? I haven't found anything yet, any tips would be great :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNexus:
Well if you run an RUU it'll go back to its out-of-the-box status

Other than that, you can relock the bootloader, but it shows the status as "relocked" so reps would be able to see that you have unlocked the bootloader and suspect that you rooted at some point

Hello everyone!!

I recently bought an Xperia Z, but the problem is that the battery depletes after 3hours of onscreen time?, i went to the store and they too found it strange since it should have around 6 or 7 hours of onscreen time.

They exchanged the phone and gave me a new one, and sadly that phone had the exact same problem( REALLY!!?!?!!), and to top that, it's with screenlight at 25% and every battery heavy options turned off.

So i went to the store to get a refund. In the store another guy had exchanged his Xperia Z 4 times till He got a Z with a battery that worked as intended....

I will never buy a sony product again after this letdown..

And i would definitely not exchange my phone 4 times to hit the "Working-Battery lottery!"

It seems there is some sort of failure in the release of many of the Z's released, i found this guy with same problem

I don't get it, my battery lasts all day, I charge through the night and take it out at 7 roughly. Then I use it through the day playing games like shadowgun and using social networking sites like Facebook. I also use gmail quite often and I also watch YouTube videos aswell. If I have brightness automatic and battery stamina mode it can last me throughout the day. I haven't charged my phone sine 7 and I still have 13% charge left.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreadPirateDan:
Pretty sure that wouldn't even work. One of the girls I work with just got an iphone 5 and the battery drains like crazy on that thing. She starts at 3am, and by ~8 she is below 15% and has to charge pretty soon after. Then she has to charge when she gets home, and again when she goes to sleep.

Meanwhile, I am one of the heaviest power users I know of, I use my phone for work (flashlight, camera, calendar, calculator, barcode scanner), frequently check facebook, ragecomics reader app, general web browsing and play store browsing, small downloads eg mp3, apps, flashable .zip tweaks from here, frequently check simpsons tapped out, play some dead trigger, watch about 30 -60 mins of movies, receive a few calls and texts, maybe 10-20 mins of music playback. Out of habit I normally pull my phone out every 10-15 minutes and unlock it, flick around absent mindedlu, then lock it again after not actually opening anything :\ not sure how I picked up that habit.

To top all that off, I have my screen brightness set to 100% with adjust to lighting conditions ticked, I have location services and sattelites on, auto sync on, 4g data always on, wifi on but location based activated, NFC on, and finally, also have better battery stats installed and allways doing it's thing as I am also experiencing some rougue wakelocks I am slowly dealing with (still stumped on what is causing audio_out2 and deleted_wake_lock)

Despite all this, my phone comes off charge around 330am, and doesn't charge till 8pmish when it finally runs out of juice. That is one hell of a solid effort as I have done pretty much nothing to help out my battery, and doing everything to make it struggle.

I have only undervolted slightly, and am using doomkernel on KA04 rom. I am not using stamina mode either. Infact, when I was using it on stock rom, I couldn't see any difference between using it and not using it. I can't really see how it would do much IF you had NO wakelocks (or very little). Besides knocking out LED all it really does it disable background processes, if you have your phone set up right you shouldn't really have any anyway:good:.

This phone leaves my previous galaxy S2 in it's dust for battery life under the same usage in anycase (I used to charge that thing about 3 times a day most days).
