[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Loca Toni:
Volume up button does not work, but after reboot works

This problem appears more than once

Please who has the idea helps us​
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MaxK47:
It's a known problem. We just have to wait for Sony to correct this in a future update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Saurav16:
Yes its a known problem.. Haven't got any solution as yet...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MarkMRL:
This bug is super annoying. I wish there was ANY way to fix it. No matter what rom I install, if it's based on stock jellybean, the volume up eventually dies after a few times. This is such a massive issue for anyone who listens to music.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] blakwhite:
Why doesn't anyone press volume down and set it by touching the bar on the screen?

You don't have to reboot or anything.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Loca Toni:
Is there Rom in the site developers do not exist by this problem or dissolved therein
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MarkMRL:
Maybe because doing that is a huge pain in the ass?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] blakwhite:
Yeah, because a reboot is easier!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bionic22:
So I'm thinking of getting the Google Play Edition of the S4 because it will be contract free and it won't have the TouchWiz software.

My questions is, if there is a US Northeast Carrier I can pick that's NOT the Top 4 [Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T] and WILL offer 4G LTE for the phone?

Because I was thinking of going to Page Plus because they use Verizon's Towers but I HEARD that they don't offer 4G.

Any ideas guys? US Cellular isn't covered where I live btw

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nickcode122:
I recently flashed the latest Hyperdrive ROM onto my Samsung Galaxy S4 Device. Everything was perfectly fine until I started getting weird unmounting errors from my SD card. I thought nothing of it as my camera still had access to files on the SD card. But tonight after eating dinner I came up to find my phone on the Samsung Custom screen with the lock icon as if it were booting up. I learned that this was a boot loop. So I instantly tried to do a factory reset and the problem arose when I couldn't access recovery. It would show the text in the top left corner then it would disappear and reboot and get stuck in the same loop. When I plug in the charger it gets stuck on this battery icon but it is frozen.

After hours of searching I downloaded the original verizon rom from stockroms.net. After having trouble with it saying PIT not found I realized that it was the USB port. It successfully flashed the original firmware. It then went back into the boot loop. The video I was watching to do this said this could happen so I tried once again to go into recovery. This time I knew the recovery was even back to default (I was using goo manager) as the text at the top left changed. But it once again rebooted and got stuck in the boot loop not letting me into recovery.

If anyone has anything I can do to fix this, I am all ears. Sorry if this has been answered previously but I have found nothing. Trust me. I have searched. :(

EDIT: I was able to get into ODIN nothing else. I flashed with ODIN.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
Were you flashing the stock rom through recovery? If you werent grab the odin flashable images from the dev section and flash that. Should get you running again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nickcode122:
I flashed with Odin if that is what you mean. I can't get into recovery but I used Odin to flash the original firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
After you said u grabbed the stock firmware from stockroms you didnt specify your flashing method I wasnt sure how you were doin it. Your download might be corrupted so I would delete it, redownload it, then verify the md5 is correct, and then try again. Your flashing under pda and not phone right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nickcode122:
How do I verify the md5 is correct? Also, I'm wondering if the problem lies with it being a nowipe version of the rom. Is there anyway to find a rom that WILL wipe? I can't find any around the forum nor on google.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
Google md5 checker or md5 verifier. I checked the link but sadly there wasnt an md5 posted for the file. I would still download a verifier tho they come in handy. There is wipe versions in the dev section. I decided to be nice and I grabbed the link for you. Also your flashing under pda and not phone right?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nickcode122:
This rom worked! Thank you so much! Any idea what happened so I can prevent it from happening again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
I would assume it was probably just a bad download. Glad to hear you got 'er up and running.

Hello,

I would like to extract the T9 DLLs from a WM2005 image (WM2k5_1.60a_XDA2_HIMALAYA).

I found some related links:

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=19569

http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/dumprom.html

http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/spv-romlayout.html

None of these links has helped me though. I did get the nk.nba file. Dumprom doesn't seem to support extracting files from this type of rom, and I don't understand what additional steps I need to go through to do this. Can anyone give some additional clues how I can extract T9*.dll?

I've tried the search function to find this, but didn't find anything really useful. It surprises me, as I thought it would be a common question. Please let me know if there is some description of this that I didn't find when searching.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
see http://nah6.com/~itsme/cvs-xdadevtools/dumprom/rdmsflsh.pl

it is not yet completely finished, i still have to figure out how to decompress data.

you have to fiddle a bit with the parameter of the script i think

and you have to extract the mflsh50 image to a separate file first.

the script does not automatically find the starting offset of the msflsh50 filesystem.

and see http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/perl/ for nbfutils.

willem
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] logan:
thanks for your help. sadly to say, this is a new area for me. I'd appriciate some more help if possible.

Does that mean it's not yet possible to extract the dlls I asked for?

I think you lost me here ;). Should I first extract this msflsh50 file? (how?) Then proceed working with this file? A step-by-step guide would be much appriciated :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
i wrote a wiki page describing how to analyze the rom:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TofClock:
In this page , you wrote :

the "-5" option is in a new version of dumprom ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] logan:
Thanks! However it didn't work as I thought.

Here's what I did:

1. Downloaded "WM2k5_1.60a_XDA2_HIMALAYA.rar", and extracted "nk.nbf"

2. xda2nbftool -x NK.nbf NK.nba 0x20040304

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] toenailed:
THATS TOTALLY AWESOME itsme THANKS FOR CREATING THIS Script .. it is really COOL .. TNX .. :D

for the meantime you can successfully extract the kernel Files of Wm2005 using dumprom -5 .. and you can analyze and extract some files of MSFLASH section of Wm2005 using the rdmsflsh.pl and -t HIMA parameter

-toe
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
problem is that dumprom does not handle multiple XIP sections in one rom very well.

that is why you should first extract them using

dump wm2005.img -o 0x400 -e 0x200400 xip1.nb
dump wm2005.img -o 0x210000 -e 0x3e3278 xip2.nb

other than that, dumprom says 'ERROR' maybe a bit too often, when it is not really an error.

Are you saying you managed to extract all files from "WM2k5_1.60a_XDA2_HIMALAYA.rar"? It didn't work for me :(

This works fine, at least no error indications.

This extracts nk.exe (not sure if it's valid or not).

This extract a bunch of files, they seem valid (I can see some exports from the dlls etc)

This gives an error message: unable to determine loading offset for MSFLSH50_1.nb

This just hangs forever eating all my CPU

Any ideas? Can anyone share the T9 dlls?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:

you can extract it partially using rdmsflsh.pl, but rdmsflsh.pl is not entirely finished. it cannot extract compressed files.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ronswens:
Willem

it looks like rdmsflsh.pl doesn't find some files inside MSFLSH50, for example I didn't see keybddr.dll in 'files' directory that it made, but it exists in msflsh.nb, well at least the name 'keybddr.dll' exists :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
khengvantha: have you tried googling? http://www.google.com/search?q=nkcompr.lib

ronswens: it is not a finished script. so it is possible that it does not decode all roms properly.

one of the things, is that missing decompression, and it does not yet reconstruct executables, as dumprom does. and it does not by it self figure out all the parameters like pagesize, and where the file list starts. i only put in 2 cases that i saw.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ronswens:
itsme, do they use other algorithm for compressing than in nkcompr.lib? that means there should be another version of Platform Builder, doesn't it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] khengvantha:
What wrong?

I have run makefile.pl successful. But i can't run rdmsflsh.pl. What i do wrong?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
it uses the functions 'LZX_DecompressDecode' or 'XPR_DecompressDecode' as found in cecompr.dll

depending what is specified inthe header of the msflsh section.

in the platformbuilder in nkcompr.lib there are function that start with 'LZX', but not with the same name as needed. i looked at them, they have many more parameters than the functions in the cecompr.dll

so i do have the compression algorithm as arm binary, which i could run on my phone, and build a remote call interface around it.

but nothing that runs on x86.

willem
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
after 'perl Makefile.PL'

you have to type 'nmake'

and then 'nmake install'

and maybe also 'nmake test'

Nk.nbf problem with Perl script

Hello - I am trying to extract files from the 2005 Rom.

I think I am stuck on the first part -

Please help! I have all of the tools (dump.exe, dumprom.exe etc).

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
buzz, i want to, but don't know how yet.

littld, if the file was originally called nbf, then you should first extract files from the nbf. what type of device is it for?

then try the appropriate nbf decoder for that device.

search the wiki for 'nbf' and you'll probably find the right tool.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] buzz_lightyear:
hi willem,

hmm... I know, it's a problem...

wm5 compression signature is 'SRPX' (as far as I remember coz i'm 1 month away from it). it's XPRS other way around. XPRS is some standard compression. I guess it is also included in cecompress.dll from CEPB5.

...just a thought... maybe a bit of help...

is it also used in smartphones with wm5?

thanx

buzz
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
the compression used in the smartphone 2005 rom is called 'XPR', which are the CeCompressEncode and CeCompressDecode functions from cecompress.lib.

the pocketpc versions of wm2005 use LZX compression, for which there are several functions which have 'LZX' in their name, but until now i have not figured out how to use them.

willem
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
extracting LZX files

i updated Compressutils and rdmsflsh.pl.

i still need to make it more enduser friendly.

currently you need to figure out yourself, how to application unlock your device, sign itsutils.dll, and upload a certificate to your device.

currently the interface code is in itsutils.dll, in the next version i think i will move it to it's own dll.

Re: extracting LZX files

buzz_lightyear, can you run the attached program on your device and send me its output? It would dump all modules and files to \Storage Card\Dump folder. XIP modules would be dumped incorrectly, but with the help of old PeValidator tool (c) LaZaRuS EXE files can be fixed to become working. I hope this would help us to make camera working on BA.

I need only \Storage Card\Dump\Modules directory.

There is a bug in a program, for some reason it does not see "nk.exe" and several other system files.

i mean the tool, which will insert files into existing ROM on the device.

any chance to share the source, please?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mamaich:
I've attached a version that dumps all files. There was a resource leak in prev. version that caused some files to be skipped (forgot to call FreeLibrary).

I've also attached source code.

Files cannot be inserted into ROM. Maybe itsme would find a method to write into MSFLSH50 block or other kernel areas?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] buzz_lightyear:
cool mamaich, thanx...

BTW, what do you think would happen, if we take MSFLSH block from hima and replace BA's MSFLSH with it?

so bootloader, IPL, kernel XIP will remain original. device should boot and will try to mount MSFLSH partition...

What's your opinion?
