I am new to this entire undiscovered world for me and my GS4 will be soon flashed with some custom AOSP rom. Keep it up and all the best for your classes! ;)

So I got the phone yesterday. I love it. It is well worth the money I paid for it that is for sure. Seems fast and fluid. The screen is perfect, as well as the camera. No regrets choosing the Sony Xperia ZL over the HTC One and S4

Welcome to the forum!
[Android General] rogermorse:
I have, it seems, quite a big problem. Some weeks ago I noticed some anomalies: photos were not saved after taking them with the camera, swiftkey was sending me notification about the 'not possible to save personal predictions' and so on, and I could not access the pictures gallery: 'sd card mounted as storage' and then would quit to the home screen.

I noticed then with root explorer that the microsd was mounted as 'read only'. Ok, put it back to R/W and things worked again.....for a couple minutes. Then again, read only and the same story.

I put the card in a card reader, checked with windows for errors: impossible to repair the media (sorry I don't know the exact words in english, but that would be the chkdsk function). Ok.....worst solution: back up the things, format the card, put the things back on the card. Well:

1 - back up the things = impossible. I chose something like 800MB out of 32GB of the microsd....and it was copying at 5KB/s. Definitely not normal

2 - I managed to copy the necessary things. format the card = impossible. Normal format would begin, and then one millimiter before the progress bar goes to 100%, it says 'impossible to format the card'. If I choose 'fast format', it says it right away. If I use some other tool like HP usb tool, it says impossible to format.

GOOD. I thought the card was dead....so I bought a new one (a genuine Kingston, 32GB). Things were working properly. But yesterday exactly the same happened: camera not usable, gallery that doesn't show the pictures, swiftkey doesn't give me predictions.

I check with windows: same thing. Cannot repair errors, cannot format the card. BUT I can copy from it and write on it with normal speeds. The phone would still go to read only and make a mess making the whole system unusable.

A small note: a LONG time ago I did edit the boot filesystem, in a way that the system mounts the physical microsd card as 'mass storage internal memory' and the real internal memory (12GB, in the case of samsung note) as 'physical micro sd'. This was a 'fix' from XDA, to make all the market application install the data on the bigger partition (microsd) instead of the (quite small) 12 GB partition.

But I don't think it makes a difference. Photos and stuff are really on the physical 32GB microsd, and it is not working. Also the thing that I cannot format it from windows is very strange. And this is a new genuine card bought last week. What kind of sorcery is this? Can it be that the phone's card reader somehow damages the card itself ????
[Android Software Development] simonsickle:
Lately with all of the devices becoming S-Off I have had the urge to prevent senseless bricking of otherwise great devices. Sometimes a user might have a typo in an adb shell command and whoops, you cat 11111111 to hboot. Thats not good, and now your phones bricked. Maybe you make an updater script from a device thats similar. Whoops it has the wrong partitions, and I just overwrote something important such as radio. Well this script prevents all this in a very easy way. It removes and /dev/block/mmcblk0* devices that arent neccessary or safe!

simply download the flashable zip here and flash in recovery, just like a rom! Another dependency, however, is that your rom supports busybox. This script will fail without busybox support!

Now, you can reboot into android and issue the command

soff-protection protect

Your phone will now be protected until the next reboot! All of the partitions you can write to are listed at the end of the command output.

But what if I want to write to the (insert unsafe partition)?

Well, its not my decision to tell you what you can and cant write to. This is why I added the feature to add back the unsafe partitions! Just issue this command in adb shell

soff-protection unprotect

Note to developers:

You are free to use this in any rom, or kernel as long as you give credit and link to this thread. All modifications must be requested through me via PM or email. No exceptions. Any use of this script, including distribution or modification, without proper credit given, link back to the forum, or modification and release without my approvial is STRICTLY PROHIBITED.

Other instructions

If you wish to use this in a kernel, you can add this to your initramfs and call it as a service from init.devicename.rc Remember if you call it as a service, you must do an onproperty type of service with the property set in default.prop

If you dont want to go the kernel route, just create an init.d script that runs at rom boot. Call the script just as you would if you did it by hand by issuing soff-protection protect

Thanks to beaups for idea bouncing
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LEGGYMAMBO:
Hi,

Installed 4.2.2 yesterday and had to roll back to 4.1.2 (307) as Windows 7 crashed every time I tethered and tried connecting to the internet.

Anyone else had this problem, and has anyone got a solution to this as would prefer to install 4.2.2 again if a fix is available.

Searched this forum for a similar problem but not seen it mentioned anywhere.

Cheers guys

Leggy
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etakarine:
I'm having the same trouble and I can't seem to find much information about this. It's happening on Windows 7 64bit.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LEGGYMAMBO:
Hi etakarine, I'm on 64 bit also. Found this whilst looking into the problem, appears to be an Intel driver problem, though not tried it yet:

code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=43318

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richy99:
no issues here, just tethered and did a speed test without any issues at all

windows 7 64bit
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QualQuek:
Same problem for me at work on a Win 7 Enterprise

No problem at home with a Win 7 Ultimate

It's definitively a driver/software part, also at work i have Kaspersky that know for causin problem with that.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LEGGYMAMBO:
Thanks for your responses guys!!

I don't use Kaspersky, though use Symantec Corporate antivirus.

I'm guessing it's the intel driver problem, which I'll install and update again over the weekend when I've more time, to see if that's the problem!!

Leggy
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LEGGYMAMBO:
Just a quick update folks for anyone else with this problem. Installed the Intel wifi drivers from the link above earlier, updated back to 4.2.2 and fingers crossed, no crashes so far in the last 30 mins. Early days, but will test further over the weekend and report.

Looking good though as Win 7 crashed as soon as IE and Firefox were opened previously!! :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcon26:
My father passed away a month ago.I found out since he is the primary on the account for At&t I could cancel the account without any ETF fees. I would like to get something simple and cheap for my mom and sister now. Ideally I would like the following:

1. Two Smart Phones with at least 2GB of Data a month unlimited text and either unlimited minutes or at least mobile to mobile on any network. ( I don't use minutes really but my sister she can burn them)

2. One Flip phone for my mom with no data text etc, just minutes to call.

3. I would like fast HSPA+ speed or LTE just as long as its not regular 3G and below.

I would like to spend say no more then $150 a month. Is their any plan or carrier out their that has something like this in the Bay Area?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] md1008:
T mobile or simple mobile
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcon26:
Is simple mobile on T mobiles network?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwc realtor:
T-mobile would be $110 a month plus any equipment installment payments (depending in Handsets used). Thus would also give your mom texting and 500 MB of data in case she decides to try it (my mom likes having email and other info on the go that she didn't have with a flip phone).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcon26:
Wait. How do you get $110? If I goto T mobile site and add 2 S4 and a flip phone I got like $160 a month with the 2GB plan.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeRedEd:
Try T-Mobile Simple Choice. $50 for the first phone, $30 for the second and $10 for each phone after that. Unlimited Voice, Text and Data. The first 500MB for each line is high-speed. After that it is 3G. Bring your own phones.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobWalker:
+1 T-Mobile Simple Choice

Add 2 GB data at $10 per line for both smart phones, and the total monthly charge is $110 plus taxes and fees.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcon26:
If I add 2 phones on the simple plan I get $120. Where are you guys getting $110?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MunkyButt:
Are you taking the amount for the phones each month into account?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] md1008:
T mobile is 50 for the first line than 30 for each additional. You get 500mb of data free for 2gb its extra 10 and unlimited 20 (I have used 20+gb no slowing me down) if you get a phone through t mo its a down payment plus taxes and an additional 10-20 depending on the phone. T mobile imho is very reasonable if you get good service

LoLa, thanks for creating so many wonderful ROMs for this device. I have moved to Note 2 but have gifted the I9003 to a family member and it is currently running your Carbon ROM A4 I think, not very stable. I want to update to a stable 4.2.2 ROM and wanted your suggestion on which is a suitable ROM. I need only a stable ROM with best battery life, good sound and some customizations like center battery and toggles. Not really going to play heavy games or anything. Which ROM from all the ones you have made do you suggest, or any other ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kevinarrogante:

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kralin:
WiFi, 3G, Bt, Pie controls, swap sd, reboot, mods & tweaks works fine.

The customization is great, lot of options and mods all working perfectly for me.

Battery consumption is also better than dhiru's cm10.1 alpha6. I'll post stats tomorrow, i hope.

The system is very very stable. No sods or random reboots. Apollo fc once, but just once, camera hd player and recorder also works.

Edited: youtube hd player is laggy in full screen
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kevinarrogante:
For using this rom for about 3 days.. this is what i encounter... Either it always comes up in a day that my wifi or my cellular doesnt work means Wifi cant be on and Celular has no signal... the method i used to fix whenever dis happen is turn off remove sd then insert sd the power on it works but its annoying that it happens on this rom

Anyway I can temp unroot safely and do a ota update? Looking to do a ota update even though I am rooted without having to use odin anyway?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leeomendes:
flash a completely stock firmware :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malybru:
Hi,

An OTA would unroot your phone anyway.

So you would have to re-root after you updated.

:)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topcat07:
Hi thanks for getting back to me

I can not do a ota though as my phone is at custom status from being rooted.. Anyway to get the ota still?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manu44:
You Can Download the Latest Firmware Flash It Using ODIN and Then Root Ur Phone Again.

Thats the Best Way to Do it.

In Case If you just Need OTA then Factory reset Your Phone and You would get the Official Status Back
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malybru:
Hi,

You need to flash a stock ROM ,stock recovery ,then run Triangle Away from the market (if you were returning for warranty)

This will return your counter to 0.

It is all explained HERE

You should then be able to receive OTA

:)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quis89:
But not rooted will I no longer receive ota updates?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenPope:
If you only unlocked, then you will still receive and be able to install OTA updates.

If you flashed mods or a different recovery, different story.

I've even tried finding out how to port apps myself, willing to learn if its going to keep my son happy and my phone safe but will look forqard to seeing any outcome :p:D
