[General Questions and Answers] hassaan_janjua:
I have been looking for an answer to this question for a long time now. May be people on this forum could help me out.

FM Radio requires special hardware that uses earphone cable as an extended antena. But a cell phone already has a radio transceiver for GSM or CDMA over radio frequencies. My question is, is it possible to use the already available radio transceiver on a cell phone to receive FM radio signals?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mackay508:
Ive been trying to get TWRP loaded on to my TF300T on 4.2.1 using this guide but on the fastboot its stuck on waiting for device. The device is recognised in the Terminal but have no luck flashing the recovery. Is there any other methods for flashing a recovery I can use on linux or advice.

Im running Xubuntu 13.04
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
Is your OS 32 or 64-bit? If it's 64, you may need to have both ia32-libs and ia32-libs-dev installed for fastboot to work properly. Also, did you get the android-tools packages from the repos? I'm not sure about the *buntus, but on Debian, they're in the unstable repos. Make sure you have the newest versions (trust me; it matters).

If you want to do it via ADB, you could do this:

adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

Make sure the recovery image is on your internal storage if you do it that way.

I recommend trying to get fastboot working, and use ADB as a last resort.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mackay508:
Its 32-bit, I used fastboot for my N4 so unsure why its not working just now. I tried the method you said but think i may ahve done it wrong it completed the operation but got the Android on its back with the red triangle :/

First time i got :-

1|root@android:/ # dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

12896+0 records in

12896+0 records out

6602752 bytes transferred in 5.185 secs (1273433 bytes/sec)

Then after that i got :-

127|shell@android:/ $ dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

/dev/block/mmcblk0p4: cannot open for write: Permission denied

ry.img’: No such file or directory <

/system/bin/sh: dd:: not found

1|shell@android:/ $
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
Stupid question probably, but is your tablet unlocked?

Also, for the second one, you weren't logged in as root. You need to be root to write the image.

Linux 101:

- If you see a dollar sign ($) in the terminal, you're a normal, unprivileged user

- If it's a pound sign (#), you're root.

Also, like I said before, the version of Fastboot matters. Way back in August, I soft-bricked my tablet, and fastboot gave me the same problem it's giving you, even though I had used fastboot on my tablet before that. Months later, I found the fastboot in the Debian repos. I'm not sure what the difference was between the versions, but the new one from the repos worked perfectly, and I was able to get my tablet working again.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mackay508:
Yeah I unlocked it using the unlocker app and have the this device is unlocked at the boot screen. Forgot the su part :/ what i get for using the up button haha. Yeah it came up with grant superuser access on my tablet, I deleted and reinstalled fastboot the other day to see if it would help but it didnt. Might have to wait until i can access a Windows laptop :/
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
Sorry I couldn't help. Those are the most common problems/solutions I've seen and personally experienced. And I have no idea why dd didn't work in ADB Shell. I would check the recovery image and try again. Check out adb --help to see if there are any other options available. I'm not overly familiar with ADB.

You could also flash the recovery while booted into Android using Terminal Emulator. That's how I usually flash recoveries. Just use the dd method from the ADB Shell instructions. Just skip the first command, starting ADB Shell, and start at su.

Oh, and I completely missed it earlier, but make sure that the recovery you're using ends in -42.img or - 42.blob. If you use one with -JB, you could brick your tablet. I don't know why the guy giving instructions in your link said to use -JB, but there have literally been dozens of bricked tablet threads here because people flashed a -JB recovery on a 4.2 bootloader. -JB recoveries should only be used with the 4.1 bootloader.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mackay508:
Thanks for the help anyway, yeah just glad i read up on the recoveries before hand incase it worked and i got bricked. Ill try using the terminal and see if that works

Does anyone use a stereo bluetooth headset with the S4? I'm a runner and would like something nice to run with. I've seen great reviews on these LG sets that just rest around your neck, but I think those wouldn't be that good for running.

I have some JLab wired headphones that I love, so I was pondering their bluetooth headphones.

Any experience with these things?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] sptrsn:
I use the Ericsson mw600

It's a clip on with mic built in also a pair of jlabs (purchased separately)

2.5 years and still get 8 to 9 hours of battery down from 12
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] RedXXII:
The Motorola S11s are nice. I use mine all the time and they don't fall out or come loose
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] flu13:
Do you like them? Which one is better?

ETA: Ah, I see. The Ericsson is just a receiver and then you plug the headphones into it.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] flu13:
Those look nice. I don't think I can convince myself to spend that much, though.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] galaxy808:
I have the SE mw600, mw1 and LG HBS730 the 730 has the best sound since it's APT-X but also the most bulkiest.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] SpaceRanger69:
That has the FM Radio in it. Is the unit able to broadcast the incoming BT audio over an FM signal or is it just an FM Receiver?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] artnada:
I use these. Not too bad sound for the price.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] flu13:
How does that "around the neck" design work for you? Is there any chance of it falling off while running or something?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] open1your1eyes0:
I use these but the price will probably scare you: http://www.jaybirdgear.com/bluebuds-x-bluetooth-headphones/

I can tell that I am a very dedicated audiophile however, and these headphones are honestly the best sounding headphones I've ever heard (and this is coming from someone who didn't use to believe in earbuds at all before).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] galaxy808:
pretty secure, doesn't feel like it's gonna fall out cause the wires are short to the earbuds that go in your ears, and the neck thing is rounded so it hugs your neck.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] anymoose:
Another runner and big fan of the Jaybird. No problem pairing and working with the S4.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] KING SKILLZ:
I use the Novero Rockaway & the Jaybird Bluebuds X. i always had problems keeping headphones like these lodged in my ear canal, but with the extra ear piece that is incorporated with the Bluebuds, they have not come out of my ears since using them for about a week now. the sound on the Bluebuds is superior to the Rockaway but not as good as over the ear headphones. I dont do much running but these things dont budge while doing calisthenics and weight lifting.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] skia11:
I'm no runner, I have been using the Samsung hs3000 since my early s3 days and I can say it's one of the best headsets I have tried.

Pairs easily, sounds amazing, and has aptX.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] TeeeJaay:
I also recommend the Samsung HS3000, premium build, good audio quality, has apt-x, plus you have the option to use your preferred headset
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CyberT3:
I also have mw600 and I'm very happy with them. I'm no music quality freak but I did noticed that sound quality is pretty good even with stock headphones I received with mw600. Best thing for me is the ability to plug in any kind of output device which support 3,5mm jack. I've been using mw600 with my PC, MAC, iPhone and Android without any problems.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] flu13:
How does that one work? Does it just have a headphone jack that you plug regular headphones into? Then, what, it just dangles around your neck?

Also, what is aptX?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mtown_cyclone:
Ditto.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] diego9016:
I'm using the Sony SBH20 with NFC and it works great!

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] RedXXII:
Actually I got mine for $65 from Fry's. They were running a special. Might not hurt to check them and see if they have the same special.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] flu13:
Unfortunately, we don't have Fry's in my part of the country.

I think if I were going to go expensive, I'd go Jaybirds. If I want to keep price down, I think I might go with the JLab. $40 and sweat-proof, and from my wired earbuds, I know that their sound will be great.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jax5ter:
they dont ship to your part of the country? frys.com
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] flu13:
They're $99.99 online. I thought maybe it was an in-store special or something. I know nothing about Fry's. I'm sure they'll probably ship anywhere that I'm willing to have them ship.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Nv1dia:
I use the wireless Beats. The battery last a long time, and the sound quality is really good.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] EasyE75:
I use s11 flex hd from motorolla and I like them because of the comfort, the sound and you get five hours with a 15 mns charge. It can read you in coming calls and can be usrd to make call.

So far, no luck!

I have installed the software and gone through every possible troubleshooting tip on the net. It doesn't do a thing. It is supposed to open the software when the XDA is placed in it's crade, but no joy. Nothing.

Anyone got any ideas? E-mail support from Mark/Space is apparently really carp!

[Xperia Z General] Coirpre:
Is a locked bootloader really necessary for step A?
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
Not really for part A, but it is required for part B (because Sony Update Service will only work with a locked bootloader) and part A is useless without part B :)

However, if your bootloader is unlocked, you can use "Flash tool for Xperia™ devices" (Sony Emma).
[Xperia Z General] Coirpre:
even after restoring a TA-Backup? sorry, I'm still new to the way sony handles this...
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
After restoring your TA-Backup (or doing a relock with Flashtool) and flashing a stock ROM, you can use Sony Update Service again.
[Xperia Z General] LedFanatic:
Thank you for your guide.:)

I just want to add that with "PC companion", I disconnected my phone before the end of the downloading and it didn't stop. I make my own .253 FTF without problem.

Somebody could confirm ?
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
You're right! :)

When restoring with PC Companion, you can disconnect your phone during the download.

The downloaded files will be in 'C:\ProgramData\Sony Ericsson\Update Engine\db\13740270\blob_fs'.

The only thing I'm not sure of, is if PC Companion also downloads the full image when updating?

I will download my next update with PC Companion. If the files are the same as with Sony Update Service, then I will update this guide.
[Xperia Z General] LedFanatic:
What I can tell you is that I made my 253.ftf and 253.zip from an updating PC companion process between .434 to .253. But I didn't compare if the files are the same as with SUS. I use flashtool to flash the ftf and TWRP to recovery flash the zip and didn't have problem...

As soon as the .307 will be available here in France, I will try to reproduce the same process and let you know :)
[Xperia Z General] relicks:
Changing build.prop not worked for me :(

Sony update service downloads same customization version - before change file.(phone restarted after change)
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
Are you sure you changed the right value? There are multiple entries with your customization number in build.prop, but it's (only) this one you should change: 'ro.semc.version.cust='. After changing this value, save and close build.prop and open it again to check if it has been saved correctly. Also, did you delete the folder 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony Mobile\Update Service\db' before starting Sony Update Service?
[Xperia Z General] relicks:
Yes i am sure. "ro.semc.version.cust" was 1270-7689 (generic UK), and i changed it to 1271-5145 (generic Turkey). And i duble check the value after save it, delete db folder.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
That's very strange. I successfully downloaded three other customizations by using this method. A guy who PM'd me was also able to change from 'Generic UK' to 'Vodafone UK' by following this guide. Are you sure SUS was downloading 'Generic UK' again?
[Xperia Z General] gm007:
I think you need to change also the id for ro.product.name=

And ro.semc.version.cus_revision=

That what i did to make it work.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
I didn't have to change those values, but something just came to my mind: I had ro.semc.version.cus_revision=R3A and I downloaded firmwares with R4A, R6A and R11A (all higher).

The guy who changed from 'Generic UK' to 'Vodafone (UK)', changed from R14A to R16A (also higher), but he said he first tried to change to 'Generic ES', which is R5A (lower), and it didn't work.

When I check the latest firmware versions with the URL you can find here (see browser bookmark), I get an empty response if the 'cdfVer=' in the URL is higher than the one of that customization, so I always use cdfVer=R1A there.

This will probably also do the trick here!

[MENTION=3447197]relicks[/MENTION], could you try to change your values to this (without changing anything else):

ro.semc.version.cust=1271-5145

ro.semc.version.cus_revision=R1A

and see if that works? I think it will :)
[Xperia Z General] relicks:
nope :(

It says Your phone has already latest firmware.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
Does Sony Update Service still offer the option to do a factory reset? I have had this problem where factory reset wasn't even available anymore.

I had to restore the original build.prop from my backup, then I rebooted and SUS gave the factory reset option again.

After that, I modified build.prop again, rebooted and then it worked.

If that still doesn't work, you can try this:

ro.semc.version.cust=1271-5145

ro.semc.version.cus_revision=R7A

Don't forget to do a full reboot each time you change something in build.prop and delete the SUS db folder.
[Xperia Z General] gm007:
Close pc companion and use update service.
[Xperia Z General] relicks:
Thanks mate, it is now ok.:good:

But question, it was .434 before after do these things it downloads .253 and i loose root. Is it possible download .434 same customization number for rooting?
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
What did the trick? You just tried again with 'R1A'? Or did you use 'R7A'?

No, unfortunately it is not possible to download previous firmware versions from Sony. You can only downgrade if you can find the right FTF file online.

Download whichever firmware you want and use Flashtool to flash it to your device.

I will not provide step by step instructions, as it's off topic in this thread and you're also in the completely wrong section for asking for assistance with your device.

You should ask for help in the q&a section for your device, after first searching to make sure somebody hasn't already answered your question. :)

FTF creatation going wrong

Hi,

EDIT - Nevermind. I just downloaded the files again through update engine. Seems like the FILE_280704506 - 721,856 KB was not a complete one. Got it right this time.

I am using a Xperia SP C5302 phone with the new firmware update 12.1.0.A.266 (Generic IN).

Last night I updated my phone using Sony update engine. I followed the exact same method as you explained to create the ftf. Everything goes well but I just end up getting a ftf file of about 15 MB. I am using latest version of the flashtool.(0.9.14.0). Seems like something is wrong.

I tried it about 10 times but got the same result. Tried with the older version of flashtool too.
