OK thank you, I will analyse and compare the files with mine and from other TF's. But so far, I discovered, that TF's don't have special partition for data as on other Android devices and this probably causes problem.

For posting code, you can use [ CODE ] You write here code [ /CODE ] - write CODE in brackets without spaces. In post editor there is a sign # for indicating code.

You can try mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 to a folder:

adb shell
mkdir NEW
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 NEW

It probably won't work and this will indicate, that we are issuing the same problem.

Sincerely,

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZigaG:
Use commands as I wrote them:

This will connect to your tablet and access tablet's terminal commands

adb shell

You need to create new folder to which you will mount partition

mkdir /NEW

Now you only need to mount the partition

mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 /NEW

Did you have external sdcard attached, when you uploaded file partitions?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chchas:
I don't remember partitioning the SD card. I did not have an SD card when I rooted.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SalamiQueen:
Hi guys, just 2 things to ask:

1) I rooted my phone a few weeks back & thought everything was ok (I used binary's v26 toolkit) & thought everything went ok, however only noticed there were problems when it came to deleting/renaming/modifying anything in /system where my phone would constantly reboot.

So I have been advised to use SEUS to restore stock & to fully unroot - I just wanted to make sure this is safe to do & I won't have any errors etc? I know I will have to backup everything which isn't a problem, but is it fine to use on a 'broken' root? What is the difference between using SEUS to go back to factory & using the phone's factory reset anyway?

I plan to use this short guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8LlNufSP2E, can anyone confirm I can use this method in my current situation? I also have CWM, I don't plan to re root after etc, not for a while anyway, so doesn't bother me losing CWM & root!

2) I have only just noticed when I pull down the status bar from the lock screen, only the back & home shortcuts appear, whereas the 'recent apps' shortcut doesnt? Is this normal? I could have sworn it used to be there, makes sense that it's not but just wondered! Probably never noticed it was absent to begin with :p

Appreciate any help & advice.

Many thanks!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maddhouse:
SEUS will completely wipe your phone same as a FTF with data, If you unroot it there will still be the old folders just inactive so for warranty i would just say flash with a FTF but if unsure then just do a SEUS restore
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SalamiQueen:
I wouldn't have a clue how to use FTF, I am pretty much a noob to all this :p

But using SEUS to restore will basically get rid of root, just the old files would be there you mean? No way to get rid of them? My main purpose to unroot is because I hear that if I update to 4.2.2 (whenever it arrives!) there is a good chance I will get bootloops & other issues as my root is not 100% fully working. So I don't want to risk it when it comes to updating really.. I am pretty lost with what is the best method to do to get rid of root :confused:

SEUS will make my phone go back to how it came out of the box, just to confirm? Sorry for the many questions, am just very cautious!

Thanks for the reply too btw
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maddhouse:
Yes sues will resort it to out of the box, room gone, folders, pictures etc.

Just one little pointer look into flash tool beta 5 in xz original android and then download a global ftf in android development there is a tutorial about using it on here somewhere, it is always best to keep it to hand just incase something happens while you are nodding then you can easily go back to stock, I think 4.2.2 will be fine upgrading to because it will just delete root

Just found one

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10879507&postcount=1
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SalamiQueen:
Lol I am getting a bit confused because everything seems to be getting a lil complicated for my understanding :p

Is it necessary to have global FTF even after I successfully use SEUS to restore back to stock? Like I said I don't plan to re root after this, it has given me a headache for a few weeks trying to figure out what to do haha, I don't want to risk bricking my phone which is prob what will happen knowing me!

I know updating to 4.2.2 will remove root & update fine - BUT would that be the case with a 'broken' root like mine, since mine is not working properly? Otherwise if it's fine to I may as well just leave the phone as it is & update when it's released, that way I won't lose any data etc & have root removed too :) If however there will be problems which another user has mentoned such as bootloops because of installing root incorrectly, I want to just use SEUS to restore my phone & remove root that way just to be sure. I just wanted to know if that method in the youtube video will be ok to do on mine, because I have said before, my root is 'broken' lol.

Hope that makes sense? :D
[Xperia Z General] Supersaiyan.IV:
Hello XDA members,

I've created this thread to devise a bug test. The bug is as follows: When disabling all animations, tapping on an icon in the stock launcher does not run any application when tapping sloppily. An exact tap has to be met.

It only applies to stock roms. The purpose is to link this thread to SONY developers depending on the test outcomes.

The test is simple:

Navigate to Settings → Developer options, and set the following:

Window animation scale→ off.

Transition animation scale → off.

Animator duration scale → off.

Reboot phone.

Now try tapping on any launcher icon. According to the bug description tapping on an icon won't launch any application unless you tap 'correctly'. It might be about 1pixel precision, so no unnecessary movements. Quite difficult to achieve on a 1080x1920 display.

To revert back do the following:

Swipe down to open the notifications bar.

Navigate to Settings → Developer options, and set the following:

Window animation scale→ 1x.

Transition animation scale → 1x.

Animator duration scale → 1x.

Reboot phone.

Please reply with feedback whether application launching worked or not, and help make Xperia Z a better phone. Thank you!

UPDATE: The bug seems to be solely caused by Animator duration scale - keeping it on allows easy tapping.
[Xperia Z General] irmani:
Yes you're right I faced the same problem after disabling the animation
[Xperia Z General] metcard:
I've had this problem since pretty much day 1 of getting this phone.

One of the first things I do when setting up my phone is disable animations. I have re-enabled the animations and the home launcher is working again.

I might stick with nova launcher for now though. It's a lot smoother and I don't like animations.
[Xperia Z General] paulkhim:
works with .5 then reboot

It works, now I can use my sony stock launcher again. thanks :) :good:

My English is not good but I'ii try my best.

- I've a wifi network at home based on mac filtering.

- 3 days ago,I bought a Galaxy note 2 model: GT-N7102.

- I normally searched for it's wifi mac address and insert it in the router and get connected the internet.

- Next day I couldn't get connected to the internet!...When I checked the device mac address and I found it changed !!!!!! (it was 00:08:22:e8:f5:99 and changed to 00:08:22:5c:44:f5 !!!) later, after I went out and get back to home and tried to connect to internet, again I couldn't and the reason was that I found the mac address changed again!!! the new one was 00:08:22:1c:88:fc !!!

- It is continuing... every time I get new mac address and I must insert it to router to be able to connect to the internet.

Sorry

I am sorry to let you know that you purchased a FAKE phone.:(

Interesting thing about MAC address to know:

00:08:22 - (the first 6 characters) is the Producers ID , it is unique to the producing company

xx:xx:xx - (the last 6 characters) is the Unique ID (or it should be).

If you type in Google "MAC address 00:08:22" you will find out that your device was made by InproCom , whereas at original Samsung it will Say "Samsung".

I found out this on the hard way, because my girlfriend bought a FAKE samsung Galaxy S3 Mini from Amazon.

[One (M7) General] jackwu95:
I've had my One from Rogers Canada since launch day last Friday.

I've been reading all the issues here about the build qualities of this phone. Mine has a hair gap on the top and the screen also rises slightly at the top edge. I've decided that these were ok and happily used my phone with great care.

No I do not have a case, and neither did I use a case for my previous Samsung Infuse which I used 2 years without dropping it ever.

Today when I turned my One over, the camera glass was cracked! It looks like it got hit somewhere and just gave in. Seems pretty impossible as the rest of the phone is in perfect condition without a single scratch. I keep the phone in my pocket top down, screen facing inwards as I always have in the last few years.

This is so frustrating...I'm afraid if I get an exchange I'll end up with one or more of the several build issues that people have been seeing.

[One (M7) General] insomnia:
You will get an exchange for a damaged phone that was caused by you (intentionally or unintentionally) ? They should kick you out of the store for asking that or hang up on you if you call to simply get it exchanged without paying for the damage.

People these days .....
[One (M7) General] gtg465x:
Probably wasn't a high impact hit. You probably leaned on the corner of a table or something without realizing it and the pressure from the corner was focused all on that point.
[One (M7) General] jackwu95:
The do not believe that I should be held responsible for this glass. It should point to the fact that the glass might have been fractured slightly so that slight pressure pushed it in from the beginning.

The argument is that I have used this phone for 3 days, taking exceptional care of it, and ended up with a cracked camera glass as opposed of my previous phone, which I used for 2 years and doesn't have a dent in its plastic, let alone cracked glass.

Also, why be so offensive Mr insomnia? Is the fact that the One's build quality is way lower than expected hurting your fanboy heart?
[One (M7) General] jeeptrash:
Probably be a great time to buy a case, don't you think?

Feel sorry for you bro. I am getting a leather pouch this weekend to avoid any damage to my One
[One (M7) General] Element515:
even if you didn't do this, You're going to have a hell of a time proving it. You very well could have just leaned on it too hard during the day and put pressure on the glass. You need a real friendly service rep to accept the possibility there was a previous fracture

[One (M7) General] jackwu95:
Times have changed, customers expect more because companies are providing more. If I can get better quality service why would I settle for less?

Also, phones shouldn't be designed with cases in mind. I shouldn't need to have a case for my phone to prevent camera glass shattering through normal daily use.

I'm heading back to the store tomorrow and see if I get a nice rep to help me. I'll let you guys know

[One (M7) General] jackwu95:
Thanks! Don't worry though, I'm trying to point out this problem and see if anyone else has similar experiences and we can pinpoint an issue.

I don't game on phones at all, so my device usually stays quite cool. It does warm up a bit after ~10 minutes of screen time but I doubt that could cause any issues.

That is interesting, thanks for sharing this, I'm looking out to see if anyone else is seeing this.

Just in case this starts happening more, my phone is from batch FA346W

Was raining the whole day today so didn't go to the store, will update once I do
[One (M7) General] Hunt3r.j2:
Hm, might have been that the phone got hot enough to make the metal expand faster than the glass....
[One (M7) General] xSp0r3x:
Not that I doubt you on for your mishap. But knowing Rogers and their ways - my family has been with them since they were still AT&T - you will need hell of a lot of explaining to convince the CSR to make them comply to your exchange request. And online sources won't make much of a statement in their mind. Try play the loyalty card and plead for forgiveness.

As to the picture above, it seems more like an impact hit as the glass seems to fracture in the center of the piece and the cracks don't extend to the edge.
[One (M7) General] TPA_Droid:
Looks like the phone was abused. Hope you have Insurance because that is definitely not a warranty issue
[One (M7) General] simba2585:
Hi OP,

not meaning to be patronising but the glass is more brittle than the casing with lower impact resistance. so a load that might not necessarily damage the casing will more than likely damage the glass. the chances that the damage is simply contained to the glass region though is odd and one would expect there to be at least some signs of wear/ scratches etc even close to this region as in a typical case.

the main thing is how it happened which appears to be the mystery and the exchange will ultimately be based on this. looking at your picture it looks like an impact dead on the centre of the glass from the outside in. hard to be totally certain considering your pic.

i cant think of a viable scenario though other than something along the lines in my first paragraph considering the metal is in perfect condition.

i would just tell them what you have stated.
[One (M7) General] nab195:
Hi OP,

I had exactly the same problem. My unit was only a day old with not a single blemish anywhere on the handset besides the crack on the camera. In fact I'm fairy certain it cracked whilst resting on my table which I found to be very odd. Anyway I did manage to get a replacement with very little hassle.

A note to some other users:

In an incident such as this the consumer is entitled to a refund or replacement or a repair depending how old the item is since purchase. There is even further statutory protection specifically under the sale of goods act. This is an expensive (£500) phone and as such it's quality and durability should be commensurate to the price paid. Thus if the OP can establish the crack happened without having dropped the phone or damaging the phone in some other way then he will be entitled to a replacement which seems likely as there are no other scratches or dents anywhere else on the unit.

I am open to listening to others' opinions but should stress that I am a lawyer and therefore am quite knowledgable on matters such as this.
[One (M7) General] bob13bob:
i also gave a demo unit a firm push, no breakage.

But a firm push is different than a small drop. At the rate of breakages, seems they put too muchh form over function and put too fragile glass on the body. Or it's heat The back IS metal and will dent. We are seeing breakages without dented backs. time will tell. A phone needs to at least handle minor drops.
[One (M7) General] criticalera:
That is terrible

Congrats, you have now triggered my OCD, and I have been looking at the camera non stop since I have read this thread.
[One (M7) General] ixrs:

[One (M7) General] criticalera:

[One (M7) General] KMadine:
Guys, that one has been done to death now... Please? :rolleyes:

Would Samsung not attempt to deal a bigger, more fatal blow than a cracked lense? As I have said, its cosmetic on mine, the camera still sorks to perfection. I actually had it back out of the box last night for a play and still quite like it!
[One (M7) General] xineis:
So, the crack on the lens does not appear on the photos?
[One (M7) General] KMadine:
Might be a slight slight shadow to the right of the image, that might just be my imagination. The cam seems to focus past it pretty well. :good:
[One (M7) General] HarveyTAS:
The crack does not appear in my photos but I get uneven lighting now. I also see rays /rainbows if light is coming from the side. (like from a Window) On an overcast day outside, it is fine.
[One (M7) General] clninja:
I took this one step further and emailed my stores HTC rep and even linked him to this thread. He said he has never heard of the issue
[One (M7) General] HarveyTAS:
Here is a pic of the effect on my camera. Same shot, just one is taken upside right and one is upside down, the crack is near the top of the lens so when I take the upside down picture the crack reflects some of the light into the lens creating that whiteout effect on the one side.
[One (M7) General] dirtyhamster73:
Has anyone been able to find lens screen protectors? I know I can make my own but if there are any out there I rather buy them.
[One (M7) General] ixrs:
I think the moral of the story here is: don't make new xda accounts when buying a new phone, nobody with a 2011 or earlier account seems to have this problem.

>first time ever owning a smartphone

>goes on a developer community to complain instead of the official forums
[One (M7) General] HarveyTAS:

BTW - I love the science here...

New phone released... problem discovered... concerned owners post about their issue... people with issues are harassed and are told they work for samsung... they also don't have the right to have an issue if they were not a member for X amount of time...

Has anyone heard of occam's razor? No of course not... how about common sense? No wait this is the internet... Just nevermind.

---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:58 AM ----------

I was considering covering a portion of the lens cover with a soft rubber / plastic ring, but I'm still waiting for my replacement phone. (I have a recess in my case so it would not stick up)

My major concern is that physical contact was not the cause of my damage (I assume heat), because of the limited number of cases I'll chock it up to a specific tolerance issue on my phone. That said, I do think they should move to a more durable lens cover design, whether that be sapphire or thicker gorilla glass. They could also add a bit more buffer between the aluminum ring and the lens itself.

[One (M7) General] dirtyhamster73:
I was looking at some fish eye's for it, mostly the ones I saw were for the one x though. Not really keen on putting a fish eye on, for one if I decide to take it off it may leave a mark. I'm really surprised that htc left the lens unprotected, since most of their phones have a "ring" /fish eye.
[One (M7) General] CocheseUGA:
I believe I referred to it earlier in stating the most likely cause of most of these covers breaking are due to unintended use.

So, yes.
[One (M7) General] HarveyTAS:
Oh please explain this unintended use captain genius? Using a device that you carry everywhere, in different temperatures and environments?

Yes, I'm sure my phone would be fine spinning in a sealed glass display stand, but that's just not very useful to me. I let my 2 year old daughter play with my Evo 3d all the time... she hucks it across the room every time YouTube stops playing. It still is in flawless condition thanks to my otterbox case. I don't let her within 20 feet of this new phone and still it breaks in a week...!?

It's a discussion forum. If you don't like the results of said discussion, that's too bad.

I never said the phone didn't spontaneously combust in your hands, or your Hulk strength was too much for the puny little lens cover. What I did say was that accidental damage is the most likely cause, and it's the result you are going to get through normal channels. You might get lucky and get someone nice to help you, but it's not a documented flaw. This is the only website it's ever been mentioned on, and by claimants who are fairly unknown to people here at XDA.

Use Occam's Razor here and see what the results should be.
[One (M7) General] Dark Jedi:
Never heard of col genius. Guess he out ranks capt obvious Lol. I have to agree with you over what you said. He has a cracked lens and a 2 year old. Its a very possible scenario that could be what happened to the phone. All it takes is 2 seconds and the kid already associates throwing a phone. So what would stop the kid from poking the lens. After all kids loves to poke. I am sure he lays his phone down and not takes it with him everywhere in the house. 99% of the time stuff don't spontaneously break.
