[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronzalpha:
Hey everyone!

I currently use the xperia z C6602 to 10.1.1.A.1.253 firmware and want to root it to get JB (I have the France version imported here to the US, but never got the update). I also want to root it for other reasons (to get rid of bloatware, etc).

I tried following this method on this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2287299

but got stuck on the part where it says to point the drivers to the designated folder. When I booted the phone with fastboot, it tried installing drivers on windows, but never gave me the option to select a folder (and installation failed). May I ask how to get past that step?

Or are there any other ways to root my phone? I started a new thread because i think the C6602 might be a bit different from the C6603, just just to be safe. My bootloader is unlockable but i have not yet unlocked it. Fyi, I currently reside in the USA (don't know if that helps)

I have updated my xperia z to 4.2.2 last night! Actually got it yesterday :P the thing is that when using the front facing camera there's an option called "Soft skin effect", wich to my taste, only blurs the details on skin, making it unrealistic. The problem is that when turning it off, I notice it's still active! D: There's literally no difference! But when using front camera on 3rd party apps, front camera works as it should, no soft skin effect. Does anoyone else have this issue ? Is there any chance to fix it ? Any help would be highly appreciated(:

Btw my Z is the c6602 model hspa+, in case it makes any difference.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dante501:
Well I do not have the C6602 I have the C6603 and I just tested it and I do not have the issue. But it could be that in case u flashed or upgraded directly without whipping ur phone first that the update actually kinda got corrupted and u might need to reset ur phone back to factory settings. It seem that quite some ppl had to reset there phone after updating it because it was doing weird things.

Today I did what you said, downloaded an ftf (First time I updated via ota) and fully flashed, but the issue is still there :/

Totally wiped phone, even the internal memory, and I don't use external sd card . . what can i do ? didn't check if the issue was there on 4.1.2 cause as soon as I got the phone the 4.2.2 ota arrived! any help?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dante501:
I don't know. First of I don't see a difference when turning on soft skin and it might be really an xperia z 6602 issue. Like I said I have he 6603 and don't seem to have that issue? Maybe ur camera has a dirty lense or what r ur settings?

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwnami:
Hello. I'm annoyed :)

I rooted to get rid of problems... So

I followed these tasks: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1653566 and the root worked for a few days - then moved into a boot loop.... how/why... I don't know.

Ive tried many of the different .aos files to find a correct one for my 101g9 250gb, but I still can't get it out of the loop.

This is where I've been getting the different Aos files: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1468925

I get 2 different results 1)error 207 (update failed) or 2) boot loop.

One stange thing did happen once - It's managed to reload the android installer, I selected a language, then it crashed again. Of course I tried the same thing again, but it never got past the boot loop again.

After 2 weeks of trying, I'd like some help.

I always have it plugged in. It's not the battery. It's the HDD model and I don't know exactly which version came with the device. I think 4.0.25.. not 100% sure

Please help
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djirin:
I don't have the HDD model so don't know what to tell you exactly..

What I would do on my flash model is boot into recovery. completely reformat the system and use recovery to update the firmware with an Archos firmware (aos file) onto it.

Reformating it from recovery would bring the filesystem back to stock so it should fix anything wierd any of the other roms might have done. So dropping an Archos firmware on it should in theory fix it. Though you WILL lose your root and anything else you have on the drive.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwnami:
Thanks for your help, but no luck- that didn't work. I'm sure I lost all my data a long time ago with the amount of reformats I've done. What I'm curious about is, can the tablet actually become a brick just by using these rooted firmwares? I'm assuming that it's fine and that I just have to 'crack to code' to installing the right firmware in the right order.....

I'm still curious if anyone else has had this problem..
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djirin:
Hmm.. Try going back into recovery and try the Reset Android option?

Maybe do Reset Android. Reformat Device. Upgrade Firmware?

The device boots.. so it has to be something causing it.. Have you tried to see if you can use ADB to get into the device and look at any log entries?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwnami:
ADB? ok, I didn't know what it was. But it's now installed and I followed a random setup on youtube, but when I type ADB devices, nothing comes up.

So now I have it installed, but I so far I can't get win7 to detect the tablet in device manager

Regarless, can the ADB detect problems on the tablet when the archos is only connected waiting for the AOS file (A101H-REC - 299MB)?

Btw, you've already got me waaaaay over my head on this stuff - but still, I'm learning.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
Let me join the conversation :D

Adb works only is it is enabled in developer settings.

What kind of system do you have in use?

In your case i would probably try exporting hdd in sde. This allows you to browse files inside your hdd in linux operating system through usb.

If it is empty, i would export data partition through sde. This allows you to see if there are any files in your data partition.

You said that the device bootloops, yes? That means that the reformat device is not working. It would remove the system, so you shouldnt even see the bootanimation.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwnami:
Hi, thanks - any advice is welcome. I only have windows7 - Sorry.

As for the bootloop, yes that's the status. I hadn't even considered that the reformatting process wasn't actaully working [but it is] - I reformatted the device and didn't install an AOS. now every restart brings me straight into the Recovery menu [which should happen i assume].

So, with a "clean" but stubborn device, what would you advise to try to isolate the problem? (rather than me simply blindly trying random things)

Thanks
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
So reformat works. Have you tried to flash the official 4.0.28(http://update.archos.com/9/gen9/gen9_4.0.28/firmware_archos_it4.aos)?

After searching about your error 207, I found this:http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=56037

Of course, this is for Archos 5, so hopefully this is not the case.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwnami:
Yeah, I've used the aos from the archos site a bunch of times - still no luck. btw, that link to the 4.0.28 didn't work....

by "Flash" I hope you mean install.... not some other random process
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
Yeah... I just noticed it was broken. And yes, I meant install.

I am sorry, but I'm out of ideas.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwnami:
So, do you know if I can access/use ADB on a win7 pc when the archos doesn't have an aos on it?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noaddress:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2104491&highlight=wlan

You could try this. it's written that it doesn't work on hdd model. but it can't get much worse it think. If I understand things correctly, you don't need to have installed any aos before installing this rom. with other roms you get a archos.ext4.update so you need a running system. yust give it a try but don't blame me if your tablet's completely dead afterwards. i don't know what will happen.

Or you could just follow the steps 1-7 (from link above!) to get cwm, maybe that helps for sth, but i don't know.

sry, but my writing style is bad. and do it on your own risk, I'm not that expirienced but that's what I would do...

Good luck

I gave up on this 6 months ago. but I turned it on 2 days ago and it magically worked.... Now, it's back in a bootloop again. Everything was working for two days, except sometimes the HDD wasn't reading the files, or the system wasn't detecting the HDD...

Could the HDD be damaged? If so, is there a way to check if it is (I was thinking about the ssd option)

Hey guys, I have a problem with installing apps on my LG (market and non-market ones).

It basically says when I install them that I have INSUFFICIENT STORAGE AVAILABLE (error); with non-market apps the same and that I need to remove some apps.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] j0s7:

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
cuz lucky patcher is the issue :D actually, patches that it had done.

when it patches the app, it creates patched .odex, which you need to manually delete when you update/reinstall the app. i had the same issue, but unfortunately i lost track of the thread with the fix. if i find it again, i'll post it.

edit:

try this: "Troubleshooting->Remove fixes and backups (to update app)" in lucky patcher.

i manually removed these .odexes, but this should work too. good luck.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Izzysoft:
Shouldn't missing .odex files be rebuilt automatically on reboot? At least that's what's happening after a factory reset (which, amongst others, also deletes al .odex files), and after a wipe of the Dalvik cache (which does exactly that: delete all .odex files).

Being stuck at boot, as you write, try this:

Boot into recovery

Select to "Wipe Dalvik Cache"

Reboot

After the next boot, the entire Dalvik cache should be rebuilt. Of course this requires a custom recovery to be installed (stock recovery doesn't offer to "wipe dalvik cache"; here you had to do a factory-reset, which would also delete all your apps and data).

As you have read in the title, Jacknorris have made a MOD for almost all AOSP based ROMs to enable USB Audio!!!:victory:

Just some things to keep in mind:

1. The mod was made for the Nexus 7 but it works in a lot of OTG enabled devices.

2. The mod was made for 4.1 and 4.2.1 but works with 4.2.2 just fine.

3. The result will depend mostly on the ROM you are running, as an example: for me CM10.1 nightly from 07/09/2013 works but the audio does not get routed back to headphones when the USB DAC is disconnected, in PARANOID works like a charm!:laugh:

4. Whit this MOD, the infamous and ignored Headphones muted when playing audio+mic remains unchanged in all AOSP based ROMs, I think this is something the ROM devs will have to fix, maybe some day who knows.(i don't know why I was hoping that the MOD could help:p )

Here is the link for the original thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2029728

WARNING: Always make a NANDROID backup before trying out!!

As for me Paranoid seems the best option, now if only someone could fix the headphones issue the i9300 would almost perfect :D
