I used Flashtool and a stock firmware to get back to stock. That gets rid of root.

I'm not sure about un/locked bootloader though.
[Sony Xperia ZL] keith777:
So if I use flashtool with a generic .434 firmware that would get me back to stock and wipe everything in the process ( i intend to flash the rooted .253 that is out there after this...)?
[Sony Xperia ZL] stygian16:
Similar question here as well. Unlocked bootloader, custom kernel, custom ROM. I imagine just flashing FTF is not going to fix everything? Do we re-lock bootloader via sony's website first?
[Sony Xperia ZL] xkeita:
To go back to stock, just simply flash the FTF (with Flashtools) corresponding to your phone model, that will get rid of all the data, even the custom kernel to give you a Stock Rom & Stock Kernel. Then you can start all from 0. There's no need to lock the bootloader again to do this.

The question is whether it holds your N4 firmly. If it's kinda loose then you're putting your N4 in greater risk.

It is holding the nexus 4 firmly, so I don't think there should be much of a risk.

[HTC One X] land.apfel:
Hi,

I've got a Tegra One X running SlimBean 4.2.2 WEEKLY 5.7 and n3okernel.

So far so good but there are still some things I'm not really sure about.

First there's something very annoying compared to other phones and even to Sense One X's.

From pressing the lock button to the screen coming on it takes about 1-2 seconds (which is still quite slow but acceptable to me), but sometimes the phone just takes a little bit longer. Sometimes it takes up to 20 seconds (haven't stopped it but it's my impression).

Does anyone have an idea why this could be? Is it possible to disable the fade on animation? I don't need it. I'd rather have the screen just coming on.

And otherwise I've been playing around with Pimp My Rom Beta from the Play Store and fiddled around with some settings and the results seemed quite good to me. Can someone tell me if it's recommended to turn these settings on:

Hardware acceleration (Pimp My Kernel - Android Features)

Lock Launcher In Memory (Pimp My Kernel - Android Features)

Call Ring Delay 0 (Pimp My Kernel - Telephony)

Proximity Sensor Delay 0 (Pimp My Kernel - Telephony)

AMR Wideband (Pimp My Kernel - Telephony)

Optimize sqlite3 Databases (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)

Ext4 File-Systems Tweaks (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)

Internal SD-Card I/O Tweaks (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)

Zipalign all APKs at each boot (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)

Battery savings (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)

Quick Power-On (Pimp My Kernel - Miscellaneous)

Adjust GPS config to my country

Wifi Scan Interval 180 (System Tweaks - Internet)

It doesn't have anything to do with speed but I discovered that my battery drains quite fast if I have mobile data enabled. If I disable it there's nearly any drain.

Is this normal and is there a way to make the drain a bit less extreme?

Thanks in advance!

[HTC One X] tomascus:
Change kernel would probably fix screen on delay
[HTC One X] land.apfel:
This is the reason why I've chosen n3okernel. It seems to be better now but still not completely cured.

Which one would you recommend?

I've got the same problem on my Nexus 7 also.

[HTC One X] DroidIt!:
Oh boy, where to even start. First it's a known issue with higher end mobile processor's (like tegra 3) that fstrim is not correctly adjusted. To take care of that go to play store and download lagfix and run it, you'll probably notice an immediate difference. I would also download cache mate, clean master (has a broom icon) and also clean master pro (has a little ying/yang icon). Download all 4 of those apps and run them all and you should notice a huge difference. If your SD card space is getting low, that can also slow down your phone. Again, I would go to the playstor and download SD maid and use that to clan up your SD card. This should all make a huge difference. Like I said though I would start with the lagfix app.
[HTC One X] land.apfel:
I tried lag fix but it made everything worse I suppose.

So I didn't try the other tools.

My SD still has some gigabytes of space so this shouldn't be a problem.

My main problem really is the slow unlocking at the moment.

And the battery drains pretty fast too, but unlocking is really what's annoying me at the moment.

Thanks anyway!

You gotta remember too, the Rom your running is basically a constant beta if you're using weeklies, these issues may pop up. Might wanna try a different Rom and see if it persists.

I was running the official build 5 until yesterday but then I thought I should maybe try a newer build. Maybe it's better.

As Build 6 came out today, I've upgraded to this one.

Does Seeder really help?

I've read that it does not help at all because entropy is not really needed so often.

Is there no simple solution for faster unlocking?

So I tried to download the new World War Z game from Play Store and it says my device is not compatible. Stock rom, rooted, and bootloader unlocked. Any ideas why?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] skinsfanbdh:
probably because of the super high resolution of the phone a lot of apps arent optimized for that res. there are modded playstores you can download that will allow you to download it but it may not run well until its optimized for our device
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] GreayStone:
I think it has something to do with the phone having no menu button. Due to the games high resolution the 3 dot virtual button causes a fatal crash because this button uses screen space & affects the aspect resolution. 4.2.2 should be out soon & add's the option to hold home button to acess menu option. Hopefully the game will run once there is no need for the virtual menu button :)

Hello all,

i have a problem with Chrome and Google+. Booth apps just dont work after using a ROM a few days. This happend to me in UltimaRom with Adam Kernel and now with Omega Rom and Googy Max Kernel. So i'm really thinking i make something wrong. But don't know what, I own a S3 for a couple of weeks. For me after a few days booth apps force closing, even when i did no changes besides from installing/deleting some normal Apps from Google Play.

I'm not so into logcat, but for me it looks like some "loading libs" problem

Hi

I wanna modify my save game a little and I have tar.gz file from Titanium Backup. But even if I don't change anything my own tar.gz created with 7zip and replaced with original one makes every app crash. Is there any way to create working tar.gz or any different way to modify tar.gz? Currently I'm trying to modify subway surfers file.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] SifJar:
For the past few days, my phone has been acting up pretty badly. On the rare occasions that it finishes booting (usually gets to the CM boot animation and stays there), it will then only work for a short time before either I press the lock button to wake the device, but the screen stays black, or occasionally the screen will go black while I'm actually using the phone. The only way I have managed to get the phone working again is pulling the battery and restarting, and hoping it will boot this time.

It seems to do the black screen thing particularly frequently when text messages are received, but it's not ONLY when they are received.

It started when I flashed the latest kernel posted in the Evervolv thread [here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41359720&postcount=183]. My current rom is CM10 build #6. Once this started happening, I restored a nandroid backup I had made a few weeks ago. At first I only restored the "boot" partition, and when that didn't help I restored the "system" and "boot" partitions. That still didn't work, so I flashed the Garuda kernel v5. That also did no good.

Is my only option re-flashing my ROM? I'm a little reluctant because that would mean losing all my apps etc. and having to restore them. I guess I could try a full nandroid restore first.

But before I go too drastic and potentially lose data, does anyone have any other suggestions as to what may be the cause?

I also have Mounts2SD installed (from Play Store) in case that's relevant.

EDIT: Could I flash the ROM without wiping and thus keep my installed apps and data?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] #define:
A logcat would help.. In the meantime, install the" app2zip" app from the play store.. It allows you to make flashable zips of installed apps.. Also, try to find "zipme" by jrummy.. That app lets you make a flashables of apps, app data, system data, Bluetooth pairing info, Wi-Fi info, n much more.. And just to have covered all the bases, try reflashing the full rom...

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] SifJar:
I'm cautious about speaking too soon, but last night I fixed permissions in recovery and it hasn't black screened or rebooted since so I'm hopeful it may be Ok now. Thanks so much for the suggestions though, I'll be sure to look into those options in case something else goes wrong or else if this problem isn't actually fixed.

Edit: oh and I had tried to get a logcat but once it black screened it wouldn't respond to adb :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapple232:
If you put the phone on lower brightness or auto-brightness, do you see faint vertical and horizontal "streaks" of discoloration or shading? It's especially apparent in the dark, and on grey backgrounds. My phone has this exact problem, and I tried taking it to a Verizon store to exchange it and they refused, because the two S4's on display had similar issues (although less apparent). So either this is a very common problem on the S4 or I'm just incredibly unlucky. Would like to hear from other Galaxy S4 owners to see how widespread this really is.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trenzterra:
I didn't get a 1-1. Went to the service centre. First time it was an issue with the sound crackling but somehow they changed the screen when they shouldn't (and I still hate them for it).

The replaced screen had a greenish blotch in the middle, so back it went.

Third had two dead pixels so I sent it back.

Fourth they replaced on the spot for it had a big piece of dust inside the screen.

Fifth has a small speck of dust under the screen which they refused to change for me in the end.

Still quite a bummer that five screens later I still ended up with a less-than-perfect screen. But I just gave up and it doesn't affect me too much nowadays.

Yup, I have this issue too on my international S4 (GT-I9500). This only happens with grey. The screen tests for red, green and blue are perfect. And they're only usually visible in the dark. Best way to show them the problem is to search 'solid grey' on Google Images, save one of them and show them the image on full screen in the dark. After seeing that, it'll be pretty much impossible to deny that it is a problem. I took it to service and got a screen replacement under warranty, but it didn't help. Still has those stupid lines. Most apparent in the dark on solid gray. I'm taking it back to the store on Monday, if they replace the handset and that fixes it, I'll get back to you.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pard0ned:
I think this is another variant of the smudges that are apparent in amoled screens sometimes. Search Google for lines in amoled displays or something similar. There's loads of threads talking about the same thing.

At any rate, it seems to just be luck of the draw as to how bad it is, or if you even get it at all.

At least, if you have them, they don't worsen over time, and any phones that are made with amoled screens can get them. I have two lines myself. I've just gotten used to it really. Don't see them now, unless I look hard for them.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plasmastate:
According to my knowledge, every SAmoled has this issue with greys. Specially darker greys. I seriously doub't those who say that they dont get these vertical lines with dark grey on low brightness. Other colors are fine.

My old gs2 has this issue quite visible on grays. It was annoying but I got used to it. Now on my gs4 there are also horizontal and vertical lines but very faint. Can be seen only with dark gray background and with lowest brightness. I've read somewhere that it's related to subpixels aligned vs each other. Every samoled has that kind of flaw but sometimes it could be annoying and IMO qualifies for replacement.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woody21:

i notice it on greys mostly but i can see it on other colours in some apps too.

This is the best test, Simpsons tapped out game it shows on the green grass very well and you can scroll/move around in the game and will see

the streaks stay where they are

proving for my device at least it is not software. I can also notice it on the same games boot up screen in the large solid yellow parts.

is it the samoled panel? manufacturing issue with the glass front panel or glass digitiser? or possibly due to the bonding adhesive used to fix the Front glass to the digitiser?

im getting a new one on tuesday but considering calling three and asking for a note 2 instead, as they offered another device if i wanted it but told me i can only have ONE exchange even though im returning it under warranty (10 days old). im returning for smearing issue and front glass lifting away from the device across the top!

I think its an exception rather than the rule to get a perfect screen.

I'm on my 2nd s4. The first one had the faint vertical lines on white and grey backgrounds.

The 2nd s4 doesn't have the vertical lines, but it has the pinkish tint at the bottom of the screen so that the top half of screen looks slightly brighter than the bottom half of screen.

I'm probably going to keep this one as there's no guarantee that another s4 will have a better screen. Chances are it will have some other issue like dead pixels.

Other than the pinkish tint, the 2nd one is good (no dead pixels, no dust, no lines, etc). the first one also ran hot, this one is definitely cooler.

[One (M7) General] thekalby:
So with the recent announcement of the Nexus Experience HTC One I am strongly considering the phone as an upgrade from my ATT One X+. I am mostly disappointed with the lack of AOSP development on the phone and the One is looking nicer everyday that I am stuck with sense.

Was going to hold on until the "Nexus 5" or until I could get a subsidized phone witch wouldn't be until the next gen HTC phone, but the recent announcement has got me considering upgrading now. On the other hand I dont know if I could deal with the 32gb coming from 64gb now. I have roughly 14gb of music, and alot more which I would be weary to give up.

My question to you guys is, disregarding price (the extra $50 means nothing to me) is it worth it for me to go with the developer edition over the Nexus Experience. I love the idea of getting updates right from google, but I also know I will most likely end up using Paranoid Android, CM10, or something of that stature. How long do functioning builds of these usually take to come out after Google' officially pushes their updates.

Also, if I go for either device would development for them be here, a new forum, or in the ATT one (considering I have ATT.)

So considering this should I go for the Nexus Experience, Developer Edition, or just stick with the One X+ and wait untill next years HTC flagship. Thanks in advance
[One (M7) General] gunnyman:
Get the dev edition. 64 gb is worth it. Plus we will undoubtedly be able to flash the Google firmware to any htc one anyway.
