It is not working for the version 4.2.2.1

Hello, I am trying to root my kindle fire hdx 8.9 (3gen) with OS 4.2.2.1. It does not work. I received an invitation to connect the device, but after I connected nothing happens. You are talking about OS 8.4.6. My kindle has os 4.5.5.1. Is it too old? Could I install newer os?

-----------------------

This is what I got.

Make a choice: 1

Checking if i should run in Normal Mode or special Sony Mode

Please connect your device with USB-Debugging enabled now

Waiting for device to shop up, if nothing happens please check if Windows ADB-dr

ivers are installed correctly!

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

Thank you.

The HDX 8.9 runs on a different firmware than the HD 8.9 (2gen), which this software was made to support. It uses the 4.x firmware numbering, whereas its predecessor uses the 8.x numbering. Also, sadly, the software seems to have been abandoned years ago at this point. I know that I had to keep my old laptop in storage just in case for the (at least twice yearly) times my 8.9 (2gen) decides to brick itself and need restoring and re-rooting; the version you can download nowadays seems to be broken.

From what I can tell, this seems to be the set of forums for your device: http://xdaforums.com/kindle-fire-hdx

I ordered a case from www.galaxys4flipcase.com about a month ago. I found the website just searching google for bumper cases. i have not received my case yet and after i contacted customer service they told me that their tracking says it was already delivered. they will not give me my tracking number so i can look it up myself though. Instead they told me to check my local post office or to just wait and it will eventually be here. I paid for the case through pay pal so i am going to file a claim through them and my credit card company soon to get my money back.

has anybody else oredered from this website?! any luck?

I would suggest not to order from this website, even if they are legit they have horrible customer service and horrible shipping times.

The site looks like a scam
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dmarsh508:
so ironically, the day after i make this thread i got my case in the mail. So for anybody who is wondering this website is NOT a scam.

However, if you are expecting quick shipping and quality customer service you will not get it through this website. it took me over a month to receive my case and after exchanging a few emails with the company they stopped responding to me all together.

There's a lot of contributing factors that might cause this eg. Sim Card IC, ROM compatibility, Modem Issue and so on.

Try go to setting / more settings / mobile networks / networks mode and set to GSM only. Wait for two mins or restart the phone.

If you have the correct imei then flash this tool and it will recover your network.

If your imei isn't correct either 0000 or 004499 then you need to flash your backup efs.img if you didn't back it up then the best thing is place the original stock rom and run triangle away and warranty it.

So heres what you have to do

Install the latest version of miui rom .

Download the dmg1 modem and install it after installing the miui rom.

Then install the ariza patch and apply yhe patch that it has.make sure that you have internet connectivity while using ariza patch.after downloading and Installing the patch your mobile will restart and hopefully you will be able to make call.

Hi,

My provider is Bell. I have an iPhone 4, I'm considering the Sony Xperia J, because I have had the Sony Xperia T and liked it. (I get the two sony's will be very different). I was just wondering if any Sony Xperia J users could share the experience they have had with the phone and could recommend if the phone is worth $179. Does anyone know if Xperia J can flash Liquid Smooth?

Thanks!

Hello! Sony Xperia J is very good phone for Sony's Mid-Range. Ice Cream Sandwich(4.0) android is very buggy on this phone, home screen and app drawer lag on scrolling. On Jelly Bean(4.1) Xperia J works smoother, no screens lag, no drawer lag. This device is definitely not for games. If you buy thiis phone for Social Networks and Multimedia buy this phone, if you buy this phone for gaming Xperia J is definitely bad phone for you. Good Luck!

Yup, finally it's out. Though Sony promised us the update 'soon' enough, it wasn't too late either. The forums will be all over active regarding the update and it's time for us to post the reviews and impressions of the update. The following topics (not limited to) can be discussed:

1. Screen

2. Battery

3. Launcher (Even smoother then .307 if available)

4. Any camera changes (Quality wise and speed)

5. Wi-Fi coverage and stability etc.

I have update mine using the Spain FTF without wiping data and I'll post my detailed review soon. Till then and always, this thread is all yours!

My quick first find: Only the status bar is transparent and the dock isn't. Does my eyes have the problem or what? (Updated: It's just a wallpaper problem, reset it and it's all done).

Second: Camera does take 3 secs on an average to initialize, but the consecutive ones becomes noticeably faster. (Lock-screen camera opens a bit faster either)

Third: A nice animation like the screen gently fading off when screen turns off!

Fourth: Wi-Fi is as worse as before!

[Xperia Z General] anirudhks:
not sure if its a placebo , but I just unlocked my bootloader backing up TA and installed the CM10.1 and found the color calibration of the screen is really good with CM10 and now I relocked BL to the official 4.2.2 and screen colors are a bit light compared to CM10... anyone else observed this?
[Xperia Z General] Julianocas:
Despite system that is only getting better and smoother, some considerations about UI:

1 - The union between the lower action bar with shortcut bar, have a slightly gap, and transparency of lower action bar and transparency with glass of shortcut it's not the same, doesn't fit.

The glass effect os shortcuts is really strange, could be much better.

2 - I really have to say something? It's really strange.

3 - this white color and size, including spaces between shortcuts, it's all just strange.

UI could be more (can't remember the world) "one color", i.e. If the "theme" is to be black, than uses all color "as black as possible", not include a white stripe somehow in the middle of the UI.

Camera improves are great, but in intelligent auto is changing too fast os modes, the camera find the type os picture that I want to take but in a blink it reads again a slightly move that I do and changes to another SCN, like soft skin (?).

Wi-Fi still worst than ever.

Battery is OK, not so much improves, and is consuming more in standby so, in other words, worst than last 4.1.2 (253).

My short review on Official Stock v4.2.2 - 10.3.A.0.423 firmware. I use ftf one as Malaysia not receiving update prompt yet.

Finally! Now it as smooth as my sister ZL which base on same firmware as well.

The smoothness is back, not like previous leak .407 which not so smooth.

Thanks Sony remain .253 screen panel color tune. Current .423 firmware color tune is same awesome.

Thanks Sony for the nice look semi transparent status bar and notification bar.

Camera quality is back! Superior Auto is working fine!

Too dark area, is better use SCN - Night Portrait.

Camera quality is outstanding, by far the best I ever seen

This is the original Sony release. Some neat changes in 4.2.2
[Xperia Z General] Julianocas:
Almost same here... little less of display tough...

I find a way to diminish the deleted_wake_locks. It's not that "good" tough. For unrooted phones.

1- I did a full clean restore install by SUS.

2- Than, basic configurations to start and just after that, full factory reset by setup.

This might work, but you will loose all your data, apps, and everything else in internal.

Since 4.2.2 I noticed that even when I have good cell reception (all bars) I see a yellow line under the battery usage graph that displays the reception. So, this means I suddenly have bad reception? Even when I have 4 bars and the same 'asu' (signal strenght indicator) ? On 4.1.2 this used to be a green line, because I always have good cell reception in my area. When I tap 'cell standby' I see that 'time without reception' now is 88%, on 4.1.2 this always was 0%. Does anyone know what causes this?

One strange thing i had was that my battery was at 15%, then i did a Reboot, and it jumped to 41%, with these 41% i managed to do around 20Minutes Antutu CPU Stress test.

Another nice thing is, CPU did not Throttle down!

As you can see the CPU is 70°C HOT but the battery is still only 35°C ! The phone also feels slight warm but not hot!

On the other hand when i tried GPU Benchmark (GPU only in Antutu) it took me 3 rounds to Trothle down the CPU to 1242mhz sadly the Smartphone crashed and Rebooted there so i have no screenshot of Temperature :( but it also felt way hotter! So i guess battery was around 30-42°C

Done a factory reset now too, there is a bit of lag in chrome but nothing too much maybe im just being anal...

Anyway sound in call is definately louder, maybe the external speaker slightly louder too not sure about that though.

UI is fast enough, same as before. Battery seems to be same for me, just one annoying bug that displays false battery is pissing me off.

I like the transparent buttons, which they were see through in programs too or auto hided.

Wifi signal is definately better now.

Camera quality is great even in superior auto still use normal and iso 400 for night shots though. And shutter lag is improved but could still be better,

Overall a good update, just a couple of bug fixes and louder speaker/less shutter lag and it'll be perfect for me.
