[Sony Xperia ZL] IE-coRe:
well here in germany the 16 gb model of the nexus 4 is 350 euro in the playstore but other stores sell it more expensive, about 379 euro. The ZL is about 480 euro but i got a pretty good deal to get it with a decent contract for free. The same cotract can also get me a nexus 4.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrtoby86:
Hey all, I'm new here and to Android phones in general.

I just picked up a Photon, not the Q, from a friend who had flashed it to Cricket. I'm looking to put it back to Sprint and replace the Duramax I have, but I'm not smart enough in phone tech to do it. I read somewhere that Motorola made it almost impossible to change PRLs and all that, and everytime I do the ##PRL# deal the screen shuts down for a split second and then pops back up the dialer screen, that happens with a few different ##codes. I've found a few different posts about how to do it, though pretty much all of them are for EVOs, but nothing in it seems to work for me, plus they assume one has the general know how already to do it. I'm a pretty quick learner and don't mind spending time getting to know different systems, so I was wondering if anyone could give me any extra info or links that could set me in the right direction. I appreciate your patience in this, I just want a better phone...
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrtoby86:
I'm looking through everything about flashing and I'm losing heart pretty quick. I was in the marines for four years and I though they had a lot of acronyms, holy crap... I'm about to call it quits and toss the phone unless there really is an easier-to-understand way of doing it. I don't care about rooting it or anything, I just want a smartphone that works with Sprint...
[Motorola Photon 4G] knG333:
I would say don't give up. I think it's quite simple.

Go here and read the last item in the post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20331623&postcount=6

The pack below made by loki should have everything you need to flash an sbf file in rsdlite. I have never gone back to stock, but I did this process when I unlocked and rooted.

http://billionuploads.com/users/LokifishMarz/31/SBF's & Root-Unlock

You may want to confirm some of this with someone more experienced, but usually if you break something, it can be fixed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrtoby86:
I really really appreciate your response and suggestions knG333.

I tried what was posted, flashing the "1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-154_5-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf" file through RSD Lite a couple of times, but each time it would tell me there was an error flashing it. Do you know if, besides RSD mode, the phone has to have any other settings on it? Like, does debugging have to be on or anything?

Please forgive my ignorance in this, we all started from somewhere, right?
[Motorola Photon 4G] knG333:
There is one error message that is normal. Have you tried booting the phone up after flashing in rsd despite the error? "*RSD lite has a known bug where it will give a "failed" error during the final "rebooting phone" phase. IGNORE THIS ERROR AND MANUALLY REBOOT PHONE "
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrtoby86:
Yeah, I rebooted it manually and nothing seemed to have changed. Plus it said it failed during the flashing stage, not during the final rebooting stage, it didn't even get to the rebooting stage.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrtoby86:
When the phone shows up in RSD Lite, is the program supposed to show all the details of the phone like IMEI and such? The phone is being recognized by the program, but only the model number is coming up, all other fields for the phone are saying N/A. Am I supposed to put the phone in any specific mode before hooking it up to RSD Lite besides RSD mode from the boot screen?

My previous distress has turned into stubborn perseverence, I'm going to get this thing fixed
[Android Apps and Games] a54studio:
I've only started developing a couple years ago and have made my first ever photo editor. I was trying to make it stand apart from others in that you can manipulate photos to match perspectives of the background images and layer them. I've also added in a lot of other advanced features such as a matrix editor for filters, text, basic square/rectangles, and some upcoming stuff that I think will add to it in my attempt to become a contender in a crowded category.

Below images were quickly made in the app and more features are in the works. Thanks and any suggestions are welcome as it is becoming a more polished work in progress.

Check out Perspective on Play or Amazon and tell me what you think.

Is this even real? I renamed to .FTF and flashtool can't see it? OK I can see the .sin files if I rename to .zip so how come I can't find it?!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Just browse the flashtool to the folder which the ftf file is in and click ok. Then flashtool will see it

Sent whilst sat on the toilet.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
[MENTION=3843529]gregbradley[/MENTION] can you verify that this is genuine? The format is all wrong, or is this flashed in a different way? It contains two sin set files, which contain the individual sin files. I tried extracting and creating a new package but it came out at 50kb in size. Is this guy serious?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Deleted member 3665957:
1.

it is that FTF thing is what is "all wrong" ;)

Either read how to "create" FTF from original sony flash files or wait, until someone will do this for you.

hint:

get ANY FTF package for lt30p and open it with winzip or 7zip.

you will understand all.

Ok it flashed and all is well, except for some foreign bloatware I don't see any difference. Kernel is same one as in 141 build
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] @non4:
OK there's actually quite a difference in this ROM. There doesn't appear to be any "sudden death" issue anymore, or at least its not as frequent, usually when I play MC4 online it reboots after a match or two, just done quite a few matches without this happening. Doesn't seem to run as hot with the same tweaked throttling values either. Very smooth and stable, no bugs noticed yet.

So since i installed miui my battery life went down the drain. (uses 25% every two hours and that's if i leave it sit and don't use it at all). i know about deleating NFC.apk but am unable to do so as when i install miui its messes up the permissions. i followed the install guide to the letter. but am unable to get it to cooperate. i tried using SuperSu but when i open it it says it needs to update binary which would be fine except the built in miui permissions pops up and causes the SuperSu install to fail. Help please.

nvm fixed it feel free to delete thread
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jdock:
Hi all, I was using aSQLiteManager to edit /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/system/settings.db, and it seems to have truncated the db to 81920 characters (it was about 91k to begin with). After rebooting the phone I noticed some of the sound settings had reverted to odd states (some set to silent and some new sounds enabled) and my home button no longer works... argh!

Stupid me, when I noticed the problem I went back into it to see about recovering the backup, and what happened was it overwrote the good backup with the bad file!

What can I do to at least get a fully working version of this back in place? I don't mind re-doing settings, but the loss of the home button really has me stymied.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jdock:
After doing a little more googling I decided to do a factory reset. I was kind of dumb and didn't realize my titanium backup backups were on internal storage instead of sd card, so I lost more than I'd hoped, but I'll be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] emaayan:
hi..

i've ota'd my device with JB, and flashed it with CWM.. the problem is i cannot flash the superSU, i've checked a few a threads and guides, and although one says rooting only works for 4.0.4 firmwares ,another http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2256821 says it will work on all firmwares, the message i get is E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed.

which to me seems to indicate a problem with SU rather then rom. i've tried it with both 1.34 version and 1.25 version, i've read somewhere that SuperSU may not work on all devices, but i didn't see any alternatives. i've looked into CF-Auto_root but it doesn't seem to have a version for the relay..

If you flash this cwm.tar.md5 file via odin you should be able to install the stock jelly bean rom and SU in recovery mode right after that.. I did this few days ago, just to test stock jelly bean.

this is the exact cwm i tried, via odin, and no matter, i try to flash through it, (well i didn't try to original stock rom) whether it's TWRP su on several versions, i always go the same issue with signature verification, so my first problem is how do i install a cwm or TWRP which allow me to disable signature verification? i'm assuming i can't just pick up any cwm or twrp, and try to odin them, i need the ones compatible with relay.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] JoeFCaputo113:
I have a question about how to go about doing THIS and how/what to flash because the OP is kinda confusing -__-

So I'm purchasing my Sprint GS4 today (will be taking the trip to Best Buy in ONE HOUR)!! I just have a question... after I root my phone, I want to install the deodexed stock ROM so I can install a custom kernel/mods/theme/etc.! The OP of that thread confuses me a little though, it says that the zips don't include a kernel or firmware. Do I HAVE TO flash a kernel and firmware separately? OR can I just flash the "Download Deodexed with data wipe zip" and be good to go and ready to flash mods and all the goodies?!? ANY help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] CCallahan:
Basically the rom is MDL based but is packaged without the MDL kernel/firmware. So after flashing you will still have the stock MDC kernel and MDC modem/firmware which is fine (UNLESS your device when you get it is already updated to latest OTA, then it will already be on MDL). You can then flash a custom kernel if you wish however I believe at this time the only way to get the MDL modem/firmware is by taking the latest OTA.

So to answer your question, no, you do not have to flash a kernel and firmware unless a custom kernel is required for whatever mod you might be flashing (like Crossbreeder).

Hope this answers your questions.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
Hi all - sorry about the guest post, i'm not yet registered but having problems with my email so i'll register properly asap!

Been trying to decide what Blue Angel device to get, so far it's down to the MDA3 or M2k as i really object to o2's obnoxious customer service attitude. however before i get one, can someone answer me some questions?

1) The WiFi - i have a wifi network at home, can the phone browse files and folders on these machines as easily as "network places" on the PC desktop? EG if i have media player running on the phone, can i stream mp3s over the wifi by going into my pc's hdd and choosing the files i want? Then i can hook my phone into the hifi system downstairs and play mp3s through that.

2) What's the battery life like for, say, 1-2 hours talking a day plus a fair bit of fiddling - non-radio stuff like playing games and 'tweaking'.

3) Does the MMC slot support SDIO for a plug-in GPS reciever, or do i need to look at a Bluetooth or wired one (like the TomTom)

4) Is it a walled garden system or can i install any software and go to any websites?

5) Will it charge through the USB Connector or does the ac adaptor need to be plugged into it too? My original SPV wouldn't but my gf's E500 will charge from USB alone.

Thanks a lot....
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Bassey:
1) It doesn't support this out of the box, but I believe there is software available. Not really my "thing" though.

2) I get a couple of days from normal useage. For example, it came off the charger at 5pm on Friday and went back on again at 8am this (Monday) morning with about 15% left. A few phone calls, checking e-mail and bit of surfing over wi-fi, bluetooth on most of the time both for headset and testing out my new TomTom GPS, lots of PIM useage.

3) It does support SDIO, but I don't know of an SDIO GPS receiver and, even if there were, it would take up your only memory slot so the maps would have to go into internal memory. I've opted for the TomTom bluetooth and it seems to work fine.

4) Totally open.

5) It trickle charges through the USB. I leave mine in the cradle at work and it takes about 4-5 hours for a full charge.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] xdadom:
Hello,

1) Browsing files on another device is something I haven't done but I'm sure there are ways of doing it. Not sure if the Windows Media Player (V9) can cope with that kind of file streaming. As the headphone socket is not a standard one you probably wont be able to hook it up to the hi-fi straight out of the box. Check the forums for posts on this.

2) Battery life is good on these. The WiFi is the battery eater. I do a fair few phone calls, some tweaking and WiFi and from 8am to 11pm I'm on about 70-60% battery life!

3) As far as I know, the card slot on top is SD only (i will soon be corrected if I'm wrong) but I do know that it is SDIO so cards with extra features should be compatible.

4) You CAN'T install any software you like. You can only install PocketPC applications. There may be some differences between version of PocketPC (eg, 2002 - 2003) but most of them work ok. With regards to the website, about 80% of the ones I go to are ok. The ones that need Java or Macromedia can be a problem.

5) The BlueAngel's can all charge from the USB Cradle alone. I keep my AC Adapter at me Fiancee's for when I stay over there :wink:

Hope this helps!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
Thanks for the replies guys... just to clarify, i didn't mean ANY software, i meant pocket PC stuff - i'm used to my original SPV that would only allow Orange-approved software for quite a while until they allowed you to unlock the software side of it via the website, and again my Symbian A920 on Three did the same thing before i hacked some binaries!

I had a play with my friends M2k, we got it to read a mp3 from a wireless PC but you had to specify it in media player, although we could browse the folders on the PC by entering the location (eg \\HOMEPC\SharedFolder) in File Manager on the M2k, there seemed to be no way of opening the MP3 directly.... however going to media player and using the Play Location (URL) and entering \\HOMEPC\SharedFolder\Track1.mp3 worked fine, the music played on the handset. However it's a bit of a ballache to enter every track name! I assume this may be fixed in Media Player 10....

Thanks for the help on the other stuff... you completely disagreed with several phone shops on the charging this, but you were entirely right!
