Hi. I have a rooted xperia u.

It says

kernel-version:

2.6.35.7+

Buiduser@Buildhost #1

Build-Number:

6.0.B.1.564

It has been a long time ago, so i dont remember wich program i have used.

Now there is new firmware of sony (android 4 now i have android 2)

But i can't update it via the original way with pc companion it says i dont have a official version.

I want the original version, i have searched alot but i couldn't find any solution. thats why i made an account for xda.

I'm not sure this is the right forum to ask so plz correct me if i did it wrong.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XqepX:
I think the thread is right ;) But can you tell me/us if your bootloader is locked or unlocked? Of course if you can :)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dd98:
The program is called Flashtool by Androxyde & Bin4ry, heres the link: androxyde.github.io

NOTE: If your bootloader is unlocked do not accept any Over-The-Air updates or through PC Companion/Bridge, that's why you got the error

Have you tried repair with PC Companion?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bawss:
PC Companion won't install my phone..

it says installing and then that it cant be installed.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] garvitdelhi:
if u unlocked your phone well just search for the stock ftf for you device and then flash it using the flashtool mentioned above this will update your phone to newer version although if u flash stock ftf i doesnt matter if u have loacked or unloacked bootloader you can flash it for both and if u didn't unlocked you bootloader then u can usee sus or pcc to get the update but
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bawss:
wich one

Thanx for the reply, i went to the site mentioned and i see 10 links with diffrent software (i gues) and the link to the flash tool is death :(

If i try it with pc compannion it downloads the software, then it says shut your phone down.

then hold volume down and reconnect the usb.

I did that but then PCC says i have the wrong software on it and it can't be updated.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
[MENTION=5375097]bawss[/MENTION]

Flashtool has new site http://www.flashtool.net

If PC Companion already download the files you can build the FTF file and flash with flashtool.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bawss:
I have installed flashtools now and have located the files downloaded by PCC

im useing the tutoral, and i am at step 6 but i cant click on advanced.

There is a SEUS decrypt option at tools but that wont let me select the files.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bawss:
Is it right?

Hi,

I have tryd it with:

tools -> bundle creation -> browse location of files from PCC

Device: Xperia U

Branding : None

Version : version PCC says is available.

Is it the same as selecting the 3 files?

it has made a file called:

Xperia U_6.1.1.B.1.54_None.ttf

And if its right how can i flash it to the phone?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Click SEUS Decript, then the 3 dots right to source folder and navigate to the blob_fs folder select it and ok.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bawss:
Ok it worked, i now have a ttf file from 363 mb what do i do now to set in on the phone? the last popupwindow with device selection didn't appear.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Yes it's a bit different with new flashtool but the result is just the same flashable FTF dilr.

Just click the flash icon in flashtool.and flash this file in flash mode.

EDIT: Exclude TA if it's in the file, just to be safe.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bawss:
is it supposed to be done in 1 seconds.

I shut down the phone and connect it while holding volume down it says:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sherif.fanous:
Hello,

This is my first Android device having been an iOS user for several years.

Anyways to cut a long story short, I followed the following instructions [TUTORIAL] AIO Unlock Bootloader, Flash Recovery (TWRP) and Root your Nexus 7 FLO and ran into the "Soft Brick" issue, so I followed these set of instructions For Those Who Semi-Bricked Their Nexus 7 0MB Interal Storage and successfully managed to complete the whole rooting process and now have a rooted and working 2013 Nexus 7.

I was wondering though if it were possible to revert the Nexus 7 back to stock configuration (Locked Bootloader, Official Recovery, and Official Factory Image -> I know this one is still not released).

Thanks in advance

[One (M7) General] DJGurth:
Just a quick bit of information.

Not 100% sure it caused it but it couldnt have helped.

My phone completely died the other after unplugging my charger.

When I mean died I'm mean, no charge what so ever, no light and no response from any button combinations.

I checked the port and it was full of dust and lint so removed it and sent it back.

Lost all my Videos though :(

The dust could have created a short on the port and killed the main board so keep it clean peeps
[One (M7) General] Tw1tchy:
I've had problems with a dirty charge port too. With a toothpick, thin cloth and methanol hydrate it's a pretty easy clean. I wonder if there is a plug you can get like for headphone jacks.
[One (M7) General] DJGurth:
Covers would be a great idea I'm not that fussy about how they look
[One (M7) General] FangorX:
I had a Samsung Infuse and after 2 years the USB port stopped working. At first it wouldn't connect to a PC, then it charged slowly and sporadically on AC, then not at all. I just assumed it was broken. I wonder if it just had to be cleaned... My contract was almost up though so I didn't care.

Off-topic, but the One is seriously 1000x better than the Infuse. Samsung's update support and TouchWiz were so bad the phone practically screamed "root me!!!', and even after rooting it sucked. The difference after switching to the One was incredible.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] tee00max:
I'm beating myself up over her thinking about if it want the Nexus 7 or not. I remember having the first nexus 7 when it came out and I barely used it but now the specs on this new one looks pretty impressive especially with the talks of the screen. Just wondering how much I will use it if I use my Note 2 for everything. Just wanted some input.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] rockky:
I have both...and trying N7 out for a week or 2.

If it was one or the other It'd come down to the T-Mobile N7 vs the Note 3. Having both is really redundant.

We note users like big screens so we'd definitely look at replacing for that reason.! ...screens great on N7.

Not having S-Pen is not an issue with me.

Speed wise they're not that much different (course my Note is rooted, this is not).

On a either-or basis tho the camera would definitely swing me to the Note 3. It'd be great if the camera hardware were hackable!

As of this moment, I'll have the Note 3 come September, not the Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] randaddy:
Note 2 owner here. Admittedly the N7 has taken over most of the phone duties when I'm at home, the screen resolution and real estate lends itself to a much better browser experience since full webpages are still legible without zooming thanks to the high res screen. Also, the IPS display on the N7 produces much more natural colors - which is an added bonus to photographers like myself...photos are way too saturated to view/edit on Samsung amoled screens.

So ultimately, it worked out great for me mainly because of the screen - high res and more accurate color reproduction means I can finally do some light photo editing on a portable device! Gaming is great, native controller support, vanilla android works smoothly, and the tablet itself is just small enough for me to take along as a 2nd device. Also, phone battery now lasts longer so I can worry less when I have to go out and do something later in the day. I do have to point out that at this point, my Note 2 still outperforms the N7 on some tasks. Maybe because it's got less pixels to push?

The N7 is definitely still worth a look if you're a Note 2 user, imo.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] HKSpeed:
When I got my N2 in November 2012 I immediately stopped using my original N7. Both devices were so similar in size that it felt redundant to use the tablet. I sold the tablet and used the phone as my only device. I eventually sold my N2 because it was too big to carry around. I never used the N2 stylus anyway. I replaced it with a Galaxy S4 which fits in my pockets much better and only half an inch smaller in screen size. plus it's 1920x1080 and higher pixel density. I got the new N7 and I love it. The N7 screen is much nicer than the N2. I think having the S4 for use on-the-go, and the new N7 for use at home is the best combo. I also like Touchwiz on phones and prefer vanilla Android on tablets.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] cj31016:
I have both. I've personally never thought of the Note 2 as a tablet replacement. To me it's a large smartphone that helps me be more efficient at work. The new N7 with that sexy display is just much more comfortable to do casual browsing, reading, and video watching on. I'd recommend picking one up from Best Buy and seeing if it works for you. If not, they have a great return policy of course.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Skyrocket2Paradise:
I have both and can't recommend the nexus enough. Definitely worth having both
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] jeffc83:
+1...got mine from Best Buy as well and love using both. A big smartphone and a mini tablet are the prefect combo!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] tee00max:
Yeah I think I'm going to go with it. I'm probably good off with the 16gb because I don't play games at all on my devices and plan on using it for mostly browsing and watching my device dogfights and things like that on it. Think I'm going to head to Best Buy when I get off and check it out. Thanks everyone for your advice!!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] chefdave12118:
I also have both and the screen on the N7 has made it my go to device for everything. If I could put a phone line on this thing I'd get rid of the Note 2. I'm aware of the phone calling apps BTW. :)

Edit. Go with the 32g model if you're going to keep it for a while. Just my opinion.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] kayone73:
Yes the specs on the N7 are an improvement but you probably won't use the new N7 more if you do everything with your Note 2 already. Save your money and forget about it unless you're just looking for a reason to spend money and get a shiny new toy just for the sake of having one. If that is the case, just do it and don't ask people from thw Internet for affirmation.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] funkyboy1281:
I've got the Note 2 and both N7. I've been using my note 2 more but that's because I couldn't figure out what rom to stick with on my original N7. My coworkers still laugh though at the size of the note 2. They pretty much compare it to a tablet
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] tee00max:
Thanks everyone for the responses. I think I'm going to pick one up because I do lots of browsing and to give my phone a break and have a bigger screen would be a plus. And besides I hate browsing around on my computer.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] mi7chy:
Own both. Note II is good but N7 2013 is better and what I've been using more of lately.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] MaesterB:
I have both and haven't had a chance with the N7 much. I'm trying to use my phone less and the N7 more at home for everything just because then I don't have to keep lugging my laptop home from work all the time, and just remote in.

But wow...talk about screen difference! Going back to my note 2 after looking at the N7...it's kind of painful. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] tee00max:
when I get off in a few minutes I'm going to my local games top to pick up a 32gb version. They had 1 left!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] jeffc83:
Obviously it's your call but I'm sure you won't regret it! (Btw, it's definitely worth the extra dough for the 32gb model)

hi there..

since i bought my phone it never got a firmware update, neither OTA nor a manual one. It came and stayed with android 2.2 with all these years.

Now that i am more into android i decided to use a custom rom, this one = http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2012061

But before flashing this rom i had to flash it with an official 2.3 rom, since it was one of the requirements and it still had a 2.2 in it.

I went to samobile, grabbed this rom http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=4340, plus a .PIT that was necessary according to the tutorial i was following.. and on the first attempt i got the error and the device got bricked.. So i tried, and tried, and tried... but i always end up getting the same error within Odin. This one:

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/004> Initialzation..

<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/004> __Xmit Write fail

<ID:0/004> XmitData Fail..

<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed.

The device is now bricked, i can't even enter in downloadmode anymore, so i bought a USBJIG to enter in downloadmode and it works, but i still get the same error when trying to flash. I've tried dozens of different roms (of course all of them were made for this device), different versions of Odin, different USB port, Samsung Kies is installed but it is completely closed. I don't know what else to do, i need help... Please help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
you cannot use i9000 ROM's only i9000B ROM's, you need to kill KIES , Open task manager and close these : Kies.exe , KiesTrayAgent.exe, and KiesPDLR.exe

preferably use Odin 1.85 or 3.04

FIRST STEP for ALL Problems:-

Whenever you have a problem with your Phone, power it down, remove battery, remove SIM card and Ext SD card and press and hold your power button for at least 30 seconds to a min, before reinserting battery and trying any solution

First reboot PC after a power cord unplug and also reboot the Phone after a battery pull. Always use a Fresh Odin after any attempt to flash, than make sure you "Uncheck Repartition", If you had checked it or clicked PIT when you are not using one. You should also be running Odin as an Admin and ensure that KIES is not running when using Odin. Most of all, only use Samsung USB cable and not others as they may be incompatible and trying it out on a lap top or another PC ( when it happens repeatedly)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heynando:
i discovered what was causing the error. it was Windows 8, samsung drivers are not working correctly on it, i don't know if this is a localized or a global problem... my guess is it is a global one

i had Kies installed in windows 8,and all its process were killed before flashing pretty much on all of the time i was trying to flash.

yesteday by pure luck my sister came to my house for a visit, and she had hers notebook with her that btw has windows7, so i decided to try flashing the phone through it, i grabbed it installed samsung drivers and didn't install Kies, surprisingly, for me at least, the flashing went perfectly OK on the first attempt.

after the flash i had one error, "couldn't mount db/data", i googled it and easily fixed it already, but that is another thing for another thread.

thank you for helping

[Google Chromecast] WildSatchmo:
in stock android, and on most android (and iphone) devices the os (or perhaps just the stock browser) blocks any video from autoplaying when you visit a webpage. Some 3rd party phones like the galaxy s3 do not have this limitation on their stock browser / os and autoplay works just fine.

can anyone who has a chromecast verify whether autoplay works in the stock browser?

for example, if you make a webpage and embed a video and add autoplay=1 to the embed url, does the video autoplay when the page is loaded on chromecast?

thanks!
[Google Chromecast] Louer Adun:
I added a "src=myvideo.mp4" to the video tag in the receiver example provided by Google. The video will automatically start playing when the receiver page is loaded by the Chromecast. Usually, the video is loaded using the provided javascript through the API (hence why the sample receiver doesn't have a src parameter in the video tag.
[Google Chromecast] cmstlist:
Chromecast does not have a browser, stock or otherwise.
[Google Chromecast] hjarnsynk:
Yeah, except that it has a variant of Chrome... :p
[Google Chromecast] cmstlist:
It's called Chromecast but it actually is based on Android with some code from Google TV. The difference is that a lot of the guts have been ripped out (such that it can't run Android apps per se).

But the main point is - Chromecast has no interactive interface. Everything you do with it is controlled by other devices which have their own interfaces. So the question of what the "Chromecast browser" can do is moot. There is no browser, and there are no apps. It is simply a receiver for streaming URLs and streamed tabs. When you stream a tab to it from the Chrome browser, all the rendering is done in desktop Chrome and then streamed to the receiver.
[Google Chromecast] hjarnsynk:
No, the question is not moot.

There are no apps? What about the html based receiver apps?

From the sdk: "A Chrome browser on the receiver downloads the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and renders it."
[Google Chromecast] cmstlist:
Whatever that sentence in the SDK is describing, it doesn't refer to anything the end user experiences at this point in time. Maybe it's something developers have access to. Certainly Google Cast doesn't involve any on-device rendering.
