MeanBean is a great Rom that's based on the Stock look. I am very happy and pleased with it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mulhiny:
Meanbean is complete, final, and fully functional. Keep in mind that there is an issue on some phones not being able to use Google navigation. This is not a ROM issue. If navigation freezes on one ROM it will probably freeze on most. Try Scout or Waze as a replacement.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AndrasLOHF:
I'd say MeanBean is the most functional one out there with the least amount of issues(close to none).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LemonNinja:
Personally, I'd suggest Sinister A10 with the Thicklizard's Arc Reactor kernel: your battery life is going to really jump and the ROM is really smooth

Hatka LTE 1.3.2 dude, Choose all sense options in the Aroma installer and you wont be disappointed I Promise. Been useing it as a daily for quite some time now with absolutely no issues.

Notifications

I've been using meanbean for a few months, and just recently I re-flashed it and absolutely none of my notifications work. I've messed around with my background sync settings, uninstalled and re-installed all apps I want notifications from, but no luck. Only notifications I get are texts. No push notifications. :( Help?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drlzanej:
No offense richie, But you would probably get a better response by posting in the meanbean thread bro. Just tryin to help:cool:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scoot0073:
Push Notifications always worked for me. On MeanBean and still does but Navigation works also but I know some have issues with Navigation freezing or locking up. But this the first that I read someone having Push Notifications issues. Hope you get it figured out
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:
Bad seeds tranquility is my go to sense ROM when I run with sense. Mean bean is too stock for me. A few mentioned viper but that's not for me either.

Hi there!

First, sorry for my worst english, but i'm not to perfect there ;-)

Now to my problem:

I've get the O2-XDA1 last week and there was only old ROM-versions installed.

So, i've seen the Radiostackupdate at the O2-Page and tryed to installed them.

But this update failed at 10% with the reason "Fehler beim beschreiben des Flashspeichers. Drücken Sie "OK" um neuzustarten"/"Failed writing into flashram - click "ok" to restart the device".

After the forced restart the update hangs at 1% - everytime!

Now no radiosoftware would detect - and the device didn't found the insert accu.

Well, then i've done a flash from CE via wallaby bootloader, but the problem stand by. :-(

I tested to flash the T-Mobile ROM, but that fails - after 1%, too.

After an idea I only copied the RSUpgrade.exe to the device and start them.

Result: The Tool starts without errors and after 1% the same message "Retry again".

So I think, the upgradetools try to delete the existing radiostack first - but there is no existing version at my ROM - and so the installation from the new Radiostack don't functionally.

What can I do to write the GSM-ROM to my XDA?

I'm using Windows XP (desktop) and i've only a USB-Cradle - no serial.

Thanks for reading and i hope for helpfully answers.

Greetings from Germany,

Christopher

Re: After Radiostackupdate - Device death. Reinstall RS fail

Cool you have the same problem as me, last week i tried to install new radiostack, and the result is like you. Help Us, There are a lot of us
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] luckyfreddy:
@Long:

Well,

it's definitely not the way you would decide (for me not, too!), but after a week full of searching, trying and no results, i've send my XDA to the customer service.

It's fool: So many users had this problem, but no possibillity to re-alive the XDA exists... :-(

I hope that a failed radiostack didn't kill my warranty - that were fool... :-/

Well, I would see.

If there any possibilitys to rescue the X/MDA (1), so please post them! Now i can't do anything, but for example i need them in future.

Greets and thanks,

Christopher

The good news is that if a service center can repair it then it will not be long before one of the great guys here will figure it up, I can feel that they take these problems as a challenge that they must win. :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] stevenhglee:
Purchased the matte blue diztronic case for my S3 based on favorable reviews here. Received it today and put it on, for the most part it's exactly what I wanted but the front edges of the phone (vertical lip) seem to be a "looser" and more flexible. Because it's not snug, every time I grab for my phone, it sort of "snaps" over the front edge, if that makes sense. Has anyone else with the Diztronic case been experiencing the same thing? Just trying to see if this is normal.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] corbn89:
My vertical edge has always been looser (it's due to the length of the edge). It can snap like you describe but I can't imagine the way you are picking up the phone that would invoke that motion (unless you're picking it up sideways)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] stevenhglee:
yea I mean just about the vast majority of the time, I won't really even be gripping the sides of my phone hard enough when I pick it up to notice the "snap" but I guess I'm a little OCD and anal retentive when it comes to details like that. I'm also fearing that the "looseness" will allow more dust and particles inside and scratching up the back of the phone over time. Has yours exhibited any of this?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
I hated my diztronics and gave it away to my work partner. Im much happier with the zoogue case. Also wanted to try out the mercury case which identical to the diztronics.

Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi :P
[Galaxy S III Accessories] stevenhglee:
girlfriend has a glossy pink mercury case on her S3, it's absolutely solid. It definitely does not suffer from the loose lip "problem" that the diztronic has, its edges are really firm and sturdy. The only reason why I didn't get the mercury case was because they don't seem to sell a matte version of their TPU cases, only glossy ones. And the glossy ones are quite a bit slippery actually.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] corbn89:
I work outdoors and unfortunately, yes this case does let a bit of stuff get it the back.

I've had this case for a year and my rear cover has got scuffed up (small scuffs not really singular scratches) bit even though the case is always on (sand and lint get in through even the smallest gaps).

Not too big a deal since I have a spare new battery cover but stuff does get in. If you work indoors it's probably less of a problem.

The case is thin (big plus) and does offer basic protection against scratches and drops. However it does get dirty. Personally I just ordered a different case so we'll see if I stick with the new one or come back to the diztronic
[Galaxy S III Accessories] stevenhglee:
i don't think I know of another manufacturer that makes matte texture TPU cases. Oh well, I guess I'll just stick with Diztronic and clean my phone regularly.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
Zoogue makes matte cases. They are different design tho

What I can say is that after every update released officialy for the Xperia Z C6603 my phone received them to after a couple a days... even when the OTA for the apps :good:

Edit. Customization version 1270-7937_R6A

File system version

GLOBAL-HSPA _10.1.1.A.1.253

Yes, unless at the flash tools unmark the correct boxes
[Xperia Z General] gtrab:
Has anybody flashed this FTF successfuly?

I've tried twice, it starts flashing but then stalls at 0% (progress bar), waited 20 minuted and nothing happens :confused: :confused:

juliospinoza could you please generate an MD5 checksum for the FTF file you uploaded?

[Xperia Z General] gm007:
Exclude TA from flashing.
[Xperia Z General] juliospinoza:
I am not at home right now, when I have the data I will post it so you can check it

As posted above, exclude TA
[Xperia Z General] gtrab:
The OP says he already excluded TA

I only have the option to exclude system, kernel, baseband, "uncategorized", Fota and partition

I already ticked "no final verification"

Wipe cache and wipe data are both ticked

I'll try another flashtool version (I'm using flashtool-0.9.10.1)
[Xperia Z General] gm007:
You need flashtool beta6.

[Xperia Z General] juliospinoza:
No problem, as soon get home I will upload it again to another server, Dropbox just notified me about the limit of data usage.

The reason of using English as the main language is because this is a rule of the forum

No hay problema, ya que este en casa lo muevo a otro servidor, me acaba de notificar Dropbox mi exceso de ancho de banda.

HELP ASAP!

Hello guys I know you probably read such threads like a million times...but here it is:

I have bricked my phone Xperia Z C6602 trying to install a custom firmware which had the latest JB update

the thing is that I wasn't careful when I did that..it was actually for the C6603 versions of the phone

so what I'm left with is a dead phone that only vibrates on powering it on and nothing appears!

I downloaded the Flashtool for windows and installed it..now everything is okay until the part where i need to download the FTF suitable for my phne so i can flash it

where do I get a direct download that could support full speed and resumability if connection interruption happens? I tried downloading from several threads here stored on google docs and so..but they're so slow and i tend to lose my connectivity during download..sometimes halfway there...and when i re-dowload it , it starts all over again!! >_<!

If there's a torrent link or a direct download link on MEGA.nz I'd really appreciate it

one more thing, which version do I choose (since I dunno where does my phone's original region is!)? I was thinking the GLOBAL unbranded ftf rom would be the right thing...still dunno about the numbers written in the names of the files

please help me with your kind and thorough knowledge of such mess ups the likes of me make all the time !
[Xperia Z General] gtrab:
Any official firmware would be OK

Good luck

PS: have you checked the "unbirck" thread?
[Xperia Z General] ethan3686:
Is this firmware rootable?
[Xperia Z General] juliospinoza:
You can use any firmware for your phone, I recommend anyone Global, just like this one because you receive updates just immediately after official release and is unbranded

I am trying yo upload this ftf to Mega, as soon I have the link I will add it to the OP

Have you tried to fix your phone via SUS or Pc companion?
[Xperia Z General] juliospinoza:
Not yet, is stock unbranded, you will have to wait a while

If you need root there are others roms already pre rooted but you need to unlock your bootloader
[Xperia Z General] gtrab:
You can't root ANY .253 (latest) firmware once installed (yet).

It's NEW and there's still no way to root it, none of the .253 firmwares are "rootable" yet.

The only way to get root access for this version (253) is to flash a PRE-ROOTED .253 firmware ZIP update through Recovery, so you need to install a Recovery first (CWM or TWRP), check this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2283673

.
[Xperia Z General] ethan3686:
and this works for locked bootloaders too?

also when can we see a root for official .253?
[Xperia Z General] gtrab:
We will see a root on May 21th 13:45 GMT :p

LOL no, nobody knows, but you bet develeopers are already working on it. We will get root sooner or later.

okay so I'm trying to connect my xperia z my laptop using the SUS, but it fails to detect my phone when I reach the 3rd step..in which you press on the VOLUME DOWN button while plugging it via MicroUSB...I specifically followed the instructions but it was no good...plus..the phone LED won't light up at all..not even the charging orange color on both occasions ( whether it was connected to the charging adapter or the laptop!)

what do I do??
[Xperia Z General] juliospinoza:
Before this, did your phone LED was on when you charge the battery?

Try a hard reset of the phone and see if it is working now

Try to download the FTF pf the C6602 and flash it via flashtools, I already posted another mirror
[Xperia Z General] Redwan Shishko:
No the battery LED wasn't working while charging.,,I'm suspecting it ran out of charge so it'll take some time to light up? I've plugged it for an hour...I'll look for the link now...thanks again really!!
[Xperia Z General] juliospinoza:
After reading all your issues with the phone, if it is recognized by flashtools you should download this FTF and flash it, after that, everything should be ok, if not, try to search here in XDA the "how to" for bricked phones, I really hope that your phone come back to life again

[Xperia Z General] zMIKUz:
I see, well my xperia z is factory unlocked from amazon so i thought i'll get the update pretty fast.
[Xperia Z General] Dinkoz:
I see, could be regional depending on the actual model # of your device. FlashTool trick will work just fine, flash the .253 Global.
[Xperia Z General] zMIKUz:
is there a risk to flashing like bricking your phone or voiding your warranty?

You would have to be trying pretty hard to brick your phone flashing this using FlashTool :laugh:

[Xperia Z General] juliospinoza:
It is not important if is factory unlocked or not, it depends the market the phone was intended in first place. Mine is from GSM nation and received the update just a couple of days after the first c6603 started so

I decided to share my FTF so you can enjoy the updates. For example, when they released the OTA for some apps I received them exactly the same time as the C6603 Global
