I thought about this one. But I'm not sure what files would be pushed in to system when installing CWM.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rt235130:
I think the problem is the root method.

I have a locked bl and rooted using this method http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/97327?tstart=0

It worked and I successfully installed CWM with x-parts and I can flash ROMs (UHD)

I think you should flash the entire official rom (*ftf ) http://forum.android.com.pl/f308/oprogramowanie-dla-sony-ericsson-xperiaa-arc-s-147007/

Root using the method I used http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/97327?tstart=0

And go to play store and download x-parts and install CWM

It should work:rolleyes:

Tell me if it it work or not;)

Cheers

My phone has a locked bootloader. And I can root successfully.. and according to CMD, my phone has install CWM.

I just couldn't get into CWM and when i attempt to get into CWM, my phone just stuck on Sony logo and the screen became brighter.

But if i don't try to get into CWM, my phone works fine.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deejay315:
Ah ok, sorry, misread your post. Have you tried reflashing boot.img?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobby2013:
Try to flash the Stock ICS Kernel (download below)

Then flash the newest Ultimate HD ROM

I hope it helps you

If you look forward to unlock your Bootloader, there are many other options ;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielozh:
I've flashed the kernel before but it doesn't work. And I'm on LT18i 4.1.B.0.587. But thanks for replying.

What can i do if i unlock the bootloader? flash a kernel with CWM?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobby2013:
With a unlocjed bootloader you can flash other kernels which are better in performance, battery etc. :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aidilchica:
most of the bootloop problem cause by incompatible kernel with rom...i've tried at most 6 different rom for my arcs since i've bought it last year :silly:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragonexe777:
Hi.

I had a similar problem as yours when I tried to flash the CM 9.1 ROM. It used to get stuck on the Sony logo. This problem usually happens with an incompatible kernel/ROM combination. I was using the Rush v13 kernel and not the kernel in the CM zip. So, if that is your problem, try a different kernel.

And if you are unable to boot into CWM (I faced this problem A LOT), uninstall your current x-parts and install the one I have attached. It is an older version, but it has been working on my phone for a month now, no hiccups, and I flash a new ROM almost every week.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielozh:
I tried ur apk. It installed successfully. But when i reboot my phone, it still couldn't get into CWM. When i booted my phone, sony logo appeared, and then became brighter when blue light is on..i pressed the volume down key repeatedly and then the screen just stayed the same brightness and blue light went off... and it just stuck at the screen....

i had to pull the battery out.

Still not solve... is there any kernels that i can flash without unlocking bootloader? my phone is LT15i but with LT18i firmware.

(Newby question) -first post

Does anyone know the antenna connector configuration for the XDA?

I have some ideas of connecting an external antenna but I don't want to

drill holes into the case if I can get away from it.

OR

A PCB layout of the internal antenna?

I also have a wrecked XDA (had a close encounter with the sea) and maybe it's 2 1/2 mm socket strategically mounted somewhere with some miniture RF coax to a suitable place might work.

I would appreciate your help.

I don't know if you guys were watching Google IO... Google now through the Play Store has released the Galaxy S4 with Stock Android.

Do you guys think HTC will tag on as well? Making this a new way for oems to cater to both Android purist and the ones held down by carriers or tw/sense lovers?
[One (M7) General] IINexusII:
Dont worry, we have CyanogenMod
[One (M7) General] slackercow:

[One (M7) General] godutch:
I don't really see the point but it will attract people because you can mostly disable sense or touchwiz and install cm or custom launchers to give you the pure android experience but with pure android it's very hard to get the extra touchwiz or sense features. Anyway I am sure it will make some folks on xda happy.
[One (M7) General] Tidbits:
All the manufacturer has to do is release the drivers... You could be stock... With this the S4 has an easier time going stock.
[One (M7) General] Zheiko:
Even tho I love sense, and Sense is one of the reasons I stick with HTC(had SGSII some time ago and I hated touchwiz, so I went stock), it would be still nice to have the option going on pure stock. If HTC would go and with all their phone they would release bootloader and drivers so we could flash stock, I believe it would have bigger part of xda-community.. .but thats my wild guess, I may be wrong
[One (M7) General] kuroneko007:
HTC is committed to Sense, so they definitely won't be doing this.

You'd be mad to lose Zoe, IMO. I'd also miss the IR blaster.

Its a Google thing, for some reason they choose Sammy over Samsung. All the same I doubt HTC will ever do this.

Is this a new version of the n7? at 0:20 you can see it with a notification led.

Also the guy with the n4 holds it the correct way when you see the back, but when you see his screen, the phone appears to be upside down.

[Nexus 7 General] benjiwolff:
I don't think it's the new Nexus 7 but the actual one with a glowing special effect on the camera to illustrate the notification... If you look good the Nexus 4 in the video is upside down with an incrusted screen, I think it could be the same thing in the Nexus 7 image...

We will see what will happen during the next 2 days, but don't hope so much...

I think that they will announce the new Nexus 7 with the new nexus 10 and 5 in fall.
[Nexus 7 General] Dylan. Veldhuis:
yes I know it is just upside down, but it is funny how when you first see him holding it, it is the correct orientation. but then when you see him using it, at 0:37 and 0:45, you can see it is exactly the same as the original n4 just upside down.
[Nexus 7 General] khaytsus:
Nexus 4 doesn't have a flat silver band around the outside. I dunno, we'll see. It's definitely 7" sized.
[Nexus 7 General] benjiwolff:
That's not that I said :P

I said that they made special effect on the Nexus 7 camera to imitate the LED notification. The N4 comparison in my post was just to illustrate the fact that Google incrusted the screen in the N4 so they can do the same with the N7 "LED" :)

[LG Optimus 3D] d347hxd:
I have a LG Optimus 3D, and recently upgraded it to JellyBam. It was going great, besides the fact my battery life would be gone within 4 hours of it being in sleep mode.

So I tried to flash it with Promethius V1.5 21E & Promethius Kernel V1.5 though I messed up on the way. I am not sure what this is called, as I thought bricking it was when it was stuck on a boot loop, but I'll try my best to describe it. When I turn my phone on it does a good job and the LG boot screen appears, then after few seconds of that it goes to a white screen with random pixels everywhere.

I can't get into recovery mode to reinstall JellyBam and try to install Promethius back after that... just goes straight to the white screen everytime.

Is there any software that can wipe it back to vanilla software from the phone just being on like this? I am not even sure if my computer is detecting it though. I fear for my device

Sorry if this question has been asked a billion times; I googled this and couldn't come back with a problem exactly the same as mine.

[LG Optimus 3D] d347hxd:
Yeah, I can't get that to work. Somewhere between step 5 and 6 just didn't happen for me... in the cmd window that the fastboot application opened, all went well until I hit the parts where it says Please remove the USB cable, and wait until the LG Logo on then reconnect the USB again. Shortly after it prints that out it says ' fastboot deviced (y/N) ? and press <ENTER> ' I type y and enter, and it repeats the same question over and over again... so I left it blank and pushed enter and then it asked for ' Do you want to replace MLO(x-loader) (y/N) ? ' Same thing happens here, I have to just push enter. Next question was ' Do you want to replace u-boot (y/N) ' and once again, I had to push enter. Once that was done it printed out ' ls: cwm/p920-*.img: No such file or directory Press any key to continue . . . " I push any key and it stops the fast boot. Nothing happened, still launches to a white screen and not that picture I see in the tutorial.

I am sorry I didn't state this before, when it comes to phones I am mentally challenged. It's probably the reseason it got bricked in the first place, I am trying stuff I really shouldn't. I don't understand most terms, and because of that tutorials are hard for me to understand.Though I did get Step 2 done, which was pretty easy. Another thing I don't get is between step 2 and 4, when do I put the battery back in? It says in step 2 remove it, and in step 4 remove it aswell.. but no where in between does it say put it back in.
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
Try answering no to fastbooting (phone can't boot now apparently) and yes to u-boot and x-loader. You already have recovery so you don't need cwm, so no to that one.

You are replacing/reinstalling the bootloaders by doing this, since they are 'corrupted' by installing an incompatible kernel.
[LG Optimus 3D] d347hxd:
When I type y for x-loader, it gets stuck at ' < waiting for device > '

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Espen96:
You don't know me, but I know you. I got my samsung galaxy tab 7.7 around october last year. I loved it and it was my first android device.

Since then I have been actively modifying it and following the rom development, and all of the mazing people here.

Sadly a few days ago someone hit it with a water baloon and it didn't survive.

After failing to find a new one without having to get it from abroad, and i couldn't get it repaired since i won it in a competition, I ended up geting a nexus 7. Even tho the nexus is great it's not the same. The 7.7 meant so much more to me and so did the community surrounding it.

I was thrilled when i could flash the official jellybean update, im glad I was able to experience that with you people.

Thanks to Loccera for porting Cyanogenmod and giving instructions on how to build for it, your work was a game changer.

Thanks to UpInTheAir for the SkyHigh rom, you made ICS JellyBean smooth.

Wish I could experience the official JB tweaked the same way, it would blow away most of the tablets on the marked.

And least but not last thanks to daniel_hk you have really done it with your cm 10.1 and paranoid android releases.

Big fan of your work, smooth and good.

The kernel tweaks you did was awesome, all lags went away, id say it rivals the best kernels on the nexus, looking away from CPU the 7.7 is the best out there in I/O and memory thanks to you

And thanks to everyone else who work to keep this amazing device alive and well.

Hi ,

My SGH-i927 was working quite happily sat on charge connected to a USB cable on my PC, I left work with the phone in my pocket and when I came to use it a couple of hours later it was completely unresponsive.

It will not respond to power button at all

It shows no activity when on charge either via wall wart or USB, it does not show up as connected to the PC when USB cable plugged in.

I've tried removing the battery for a couple of minutes and also a different battery with long and short presses of the Power Button whiles't holding volume with various combinations there of.

This is not as a result of my flashing anything it just stopped, the threads I've seen using search all seem to be able to get to a boot screen of some description mine is completely dead.

Phone was Unlocked / rooted / backed up + efs backup / running 4.0.4 UCLJ3 Lite Kernel

Anyone have a suggestion on how I might be able to resurrect it or should I put it in a long ship and set fire to it ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] requiem_mortis:
Please note I imported this Phone into the UK

I approached a local SAMSUNG service center and they won't touch it as it's from outside the EU. - Further more on discussing the nature of the problem I was informed it's probably a hardware fault due to IC or Fuse or combination of them. As these are surface mounted components they wouldn't be repairable by normal means and they wouldn't even give me a number for an independent phone repair.

Can anyone know of and can give me the contact details of a repair person based in the UK who'd be willing to look at it ?

I appreciate the time taken to respond and especially the offer, however although not completely inept with a soldering iron changing the motherboard may well be beyond my expertise, but I'd be willing to give it a go if all else fails.

I have managed to locate another repair center reportedly having Samsung Qualified technicians. Initial communications seemed to suggest they could deal with the assessment which they provide for free. I have sent the handset to them and am now awaiting their report.

If things do not work out with the repair center, I would like to contact you to discuss your offer further.
