[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Somoy1:
Thanks.

I tried to follow the link's instruction. (for that purpose installed ubuntu+android sdk)

The 1st step was "adb shell dd if=/dev/blo...."

>> BUT got this msg "cannot open for read: Permission denied" (in fact from win7 got similar msg)

One clarification request: does "root only" means root access? Of so, it seems like a loop: s-off <-> roor access

Any help please?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dreico33:
Hellow,

Well i have done a factory Reset and Wipe Partiition/cache from Sgh-i727 Recovery Mode (Stock Rom) and i still can see all the files that i have in internal SD Card. The phone has return to factory settings, but the data still remains. I have already done a Back Up of all my files using Titanium Back up but the problem still remains 6 GBS of information i had before the reset 6 GB i have now after the reset.

Any Ideas? Does not suppose to erase all the data the factory reset function?

Thank you

Constanine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
1. Factory reset will NOT touch your internal SD partition, meaning all your personal stuffs as well as some folders created by apps will be intact.

2. If you want to wipe all those, try do format usb or something.

3. This is for i777, not i727.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dreico33:
Oh i see. Thank you very much for your answer. To do a format to Internal SD Card what i am supposed to do? Sorry for the wrong thread. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SXUsr:
Type "format SD" into Google and see.

From me to you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
None of the custom recoveries will wipe sdcard in recovery unless you specifically wipe it in the menus. Theres an entire option just for that purpose

WILLING TO DONATE for someone who can get this phone work!!!!!!!!!!!

I've just recieved an xperia ZL, i bought on the internet. The seller sold it as it is not working, it cant connect to any network, or its just not recognizing the sim, and the back cam is not working. The cam can start but when I take a pic with it and it tries to save it then I get an Error message without any error codes. I think the phone should be flashed, and I need help with it. Will it make the cam work? And can it help on the other problem with the sim card? I took some pics about the details of my phone, I dont understand anything from it but it can help for some of you

who is an expert, the only problem is that I cant link it in my post because I am new on this forum... :confused:

UPDATE

FLASHTOOL installed - YES

Flashtool recognize the phone when it is started - YES

When flashtool asks me to connect the phone in flashmode and it shows me the instructions I cant get it in flashmode.... The instructions dont disappear when I hold the volume down key and connect it to the usb, just red yellow green led flash for <1 second, and nothing happens... then I must restart the phone with the small button on the back of it.

So the thing is stuck here!!! I think my phone is not able to get in flashmode! Is there another method to flash it without using flashmode on phone???? And I think it can start in fastboot mode because if I hold the volume UP key and connect it to usb then the blue led is ON...

One more thing that I was searching for and gugled it and cant find answer

ROOTING STATUS: unknown If I'm right there should be a text like Bootloader unlock allowed:Yes or No... not unknown.

SOME SPECS:

Thx, but the links for the flashtool for windows are dead.

I've downloaded the C6503_10.1.A.1.350_Generic DE.ftf and flashtool 0.9.11 from the Androxyde website. Is that flash tool good for this ZL or is there a special just for the ZL phone? And do you think the flashing will solve my problems?

Installed the latest flashtool, drivers too, but when I try to flash the phone I have to turn it off and then disconnect the micro usb, I'm holding the volume down key and connect back the usb, then I see a green led on the phone and after that a red one and nothing happens. What is the problem now?

And I would like to ask someone a favor who has ZL too, to look at the SIM card slot and see how much pins are there, in my there is 3 and it seems like the fourth on the left side is missing?!?

Then, turn your phone off.

Start Flashtool, click on the thunder icon, select the file u want to flash, ok, wait for it to load, once the program asks for the phone connect the USB cable, then volume down, keep pressing it while u connect the phone to the usb...should work.

I've tried exactly as you said. Everything is installed and the flashtool is that version and it recognize my phone, and when i start the flash and the flashtool shows me the instructions to connect my phone in flashmode, there is the point where I'm stuck. I've noticed that I simply cant get the phone in flashmode. I'm holding the volume down key while I connect the usb in it, then the red yellow green leds flahses for <1 seconds and nothing happens. I'm sure that the phone is unable to get in flashmode. Now I think I need another flashing method where flashmode is not required, if it is possible....

Anyway thank you for your time and reply!!

have you tried to check on sony service ? just make sure that is not hardware broken.
[Sony Xperia ZL] butatx:
There are several method other than using flashtool.

1. Try repair feature in PC companion

2. If cannot update try download SUS (Google this)

3. Or if u can enter fastboot, u can try to flash the kernel via flashtool. Open flashtool, then go to fastboot mode, then unplug cable, Off phone, enter fastboot mode, in flashtool select flash kernel, select .img file (extract from kernel u download, ensure it has recovery I.e doomkernel) then flash. This will only work if ur bootloader unlocked already + rooted.

4. Try to root u phone 1st then unlocked bootloader. (please backup ur TA partition, otherwise u will loss ur DRM key or in other word loss ur bravia engine feature, custom Rom have this feature already actually, unless u want to go back to completely stock Rom)

5. Or download older version of flashtool. Ur version of Rom .278 seem very rare, never heard of it. Maybe the first Rom version before .350.
[Sony Xperia ZL] coolrevi:
Yes for that you'll need root with cwm installed. So that you can flash using any zip..

You first have to update to sw version 1.18.720.3 ! In order to apply jelly bean update ! Check software updates ! Then see what update you got ! After updating to 1.18 ! Check for software updates ! You'll have the jelly bean update ! Start the update for sometime ! Let it run ! Then switch of mobile data or WiFi then connect phone to pc and copy that jelly bean update to your phone safely remove your device ! Then again switch on mobile data or WiFi it'll show download complete and verifying package a after that if you have stock reovery and all the system bloatware proceed ! Other wise you'll get stuck in the middle with red triangle

I relocked the bootloader with less than 10% better. On the screen it says "relocked bootloader, security warning"

I don't know what to do. The battery charge light is on when its in bootloader so it I think its charging, its also warm.

what should I do?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Squirrel1620:
Are you s off? Did you relock with revone or with the standard fastboot command?

I'd just let it sit on the charger for a while.

Will it boot to os by selecting reboot from the fastboot menu in bootloader?

I think as long as your getting bootloader you'll be fine, most likely that low battery that's stopping it.

Also how hot is it? Like burn your hands hot? Then let it sit for about 15 mins powered down then charge it.

When you flash anything to your phone it updates the flash counter telling the phone its been modded, then a yellow triangle appears (I think) and that's what stops the updates as it shows as unofficial, triangle away removes it
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MercuryStar:
If you flash an official Samsung firmware (for example, using Odin) it shouldn't update the flash counter, should it? I thought that was only when flashing third-party ROMs and then wanting to go back to an official one.

At least that was the case on my Galaxy S2. Flashed a different official firmware, unbranded and from another region using ODIN, and the phone still shows as "original".

You could be right, probably are I've not messed around with flashing in ages :P

So, I know I made lots of mistake and all of it is my fault, but now I need a solution for the huge amount of problems I am facing.

So, I had a stock Froyo on my phone and I tried following the steps of this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1894737

The first mistake I did, was I flashed XXKPQ directly by mistake instead of XXKPE, which I noticed while I was in the middle of doing it.

The phone was working properly on the GB rom. After that I rooted it, following the guide using a cf root of XXKPQ.

Now, I didn't know if there was prerequisite for it or not, but I flashed the custom rom of http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2300693

The first problem I saw was that while installing it from the sdcard, for a long time, the screen was blank. I left it thinking that it was part of it, but since it persisted, I rebooted it. The phone opened properly and after that I installed the gapps later through recovery mode.

The first major problem I saw was that the phone after screen locking, it used to shut down automatically. After looking through solutions, where none were working, I tried flashing to stock rom via odin (stock rom : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16107097)

After that though, whenever I open the phone, it just stucks at the samsung logo screen and doesn't go further.

Also, when in download mode, I tried it attaching to Odin but "USB device not recognized" comes all the time.

I don't know what to do.. :( I know I must have made loads of huge mistakes and I should have done everything, being properly informed, but now I really need a solution..
