[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mr.Its:
Okay, so this is a long shot but I've got a friend out in Canada and I've sent them my old ST15i. Their provider is Rogers, so GSM works but nothing else does as HSPA requires 850/1900 which won't work with it currently at 900/2100. So I've done a bit of reading and found that theres an ST15a which uses 850/1900/2100 and I'm curious to know if the hardwares the same and the firmwares the only difference? I'm thinking that maybe if the baseband was changed to whatever the ST15a uses then it might work? That or if the 4.1.B.0.587 firmware (Generic Trade US version) was forced onto the ST15i?

This thread (link) at post #16 shows how to spoof the device to an ST15a. Apparently running SUS with the repair option will then install the complete firmware, which is also listed on wotanserver.com.

As I no longer have the device and it'll be hard to explain how to modify it to a friend, could someone please try to upload the ST15a Generic Trade US firmware v4.1.B.0.587. That or if you could tell me which baseband works best in the US and/or Canada then that'd be a huge help.

Heres some images I located online which may help:

My guess is the hardware radio is different, but I'd like to be sure.

Thanks.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bejunk:
i think ur right as u said its hardware related. also this editing build.prop isnt a great thing. u can try it, just change all strings with ''..st15i to ''st15a

and then hope sony pc updater will make it :D --> bcuz AFAIK there isnt any .587 fw with a build st15a....

so u can only test (or ur friend)

u can go to this tread where mostly all xperia fw are to download http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?tstart=0 AND THERE ISNT ANY ''a'' build for xperia mini :`(....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mr.Its:
Yep, that's the problem I'm facing, getting ahold of the firmware for ST15a. It should exist since it's on wotanserver at the bottom of their list.

http://www.wotanserver.com/en/sony-ericsson/xperia-mini-st15/4-1-b-0-587/language-download

My hope is that someone here has the phone and can upload the firmware or the baseband they're using from it, but like I've said, the radio is probably different but I can't be sure since it could just be software controlled.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bejunk:
!!!

i figured out the problem, after some research: the main problem is not the

ROM

its the

baseband

file, bcuz rom is mostly allways same from st15i to st15a... but baseband makes ur phone supporting other 'bands' like u need i found serveral forums also german one for ARC, were both were attached, (baseband files), i asked and they tell me sure its the baseband not ROM! the only thing is the rom files are factory images with rom, kernel, baseband, etc all in 1 file so it must be a ''st15a'' version of this; BUT WHAT U REALLY NEED IS A BASEBAND FROM A AMERICAN USER!! (or simply a baseband st15a which support needed bands!) - id didnt found any baseband ''a'', also u can use st17a basebands on it too, so if i see a US-user i ask him to push it from his phone - that all for now , no idea

sry, hope u find it anywhere!

peace
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Bolussimo:
OK, so if it's only baseband problem AND Xperia Mini and Xperia Mini Pro are nearly identical devices - is it possible to flash baseband from sk17a firmware? It's my question, cause I found Sk17a 4.1.B.0.431 Generic Trade US firmware. So if it will fit also a ST15 - I can upload it.

here it is: Baseband from sk17a
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bejunk:
Yes afaik yes bcuz i using .86 baseband for st17i also all report from other baseband threads can confirm this :)

Yes hopefully the hw support is universal, but what can go wrong? If not he can flash back old baseband....

I was bit confused bcuz some user one one thread says he lives in mexico and still "i" version works?!? May he he also tries to reset apn settings??

Ican test. The baseband but i live in europe so i cant see if it works on american bands :( but it try and see result..

--------------------------------------------EDIT---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ok i tried to flash baseband on flashtool, but i didnt works. also get some strange output:

flashsystem.X10FlashException: ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_STATIC="IMAGE_ADDRESS_RANGE";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN-block eraseblock mismatch"

simply i think baseband is not compatible in some way:confused:

- bcuz other baseband flash works.

- maybe its bcuz iam on 4.2.2 or it really checks device (& st15a HW is really bit diffrent)...:crying:

- but im sure that the problem isnt that it is for sk17a , like said bfore :)

sry but now i simply dunno..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Bolussimo:
Now I'm a little bit confused. I've flashed baseband from SK17a, everything went fine. But after that I could connect to GSM. O.o Sooooo I did some research - and every site told me (I checked also my phone box - it tells me exactly the same :D), that SK17i and SK17a are multi-bands :D So they work in 850/900/1800/1900/UMTS/HSPA :D So I'm afraid it's not only the baseband :D

I checked also for Xperia Mini - it's the same situation :)

The only differences are propably with FM Radio app - since USA and EU use different frequencies :)

Anyway - maybe APNs are incorrect. So that's why only gsm works :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mr.Its:
The info isn't 100% correct.

ST15i:

GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

HSDPA 900 / 2100

ST15a:

GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100

The ST15i doesn't have access to the HSDPA frequencies found in the ST15a, but as both have the same GSM frequencies then of course that'll work. My friend needs access to the HSDPA frequencies from the ST15a for faster speeds since most networks in Canada don't use 900 / 2100 for the faster speeds.

The hardware could be identical and the baseband may control what frequencies it has access to, or it could be a totally different radio and changing the baseband won't have any effect. So the only way you'd know if changing the basebands worked is if you normally connect via HSDPA. Once you've flashed the SK17a baseband you'd then either fail to connect via HSDPA or you'd notice that it's got worse since it'll only have access to 2100 MHz.

When it comes to the APN info that's already something I preloaded onto the device. And it's due to the info online that I thought HSDPA would work, but they've simply forgot to mention that the HSDPA 850 / 1900 frequencies are for the American version only.

As you've successfully flashed the file I'll get my friend to try it too, but I have my doubts after finding this thread today that says the radio is physically different in the A and I versions.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikoah.jaye:
I have looked everywhere for this, but cannot find it. I am not sure how, but the systemui.apk is no longer on my phone, and so all features that it controls are not working. Does anyone have the apk for the Note 1 N7000 jelly bean update that I can download? I am going crazy without my notification bar.

My kernel is 3.0.31-906407

dpi@DELL237 #3

Build number: JZO54K.N7000JPLSB.

I have done a factory reset, and tryed to replace it with apk's I have found. I looked at rooting the phone, but I need to ensure I have it till the 28th, when if I cannot fix it my husband will root it. Please let me know if you can help.

Thank you

Nikoah
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
How do you know systemuiapk is missing? I would expect that it would show a boat load of errors on boot up and not run. What are the symptoms?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikoah.jaye:
It is not listed in the "All Apps" section of the apps manager.

Symptoms: When my phone rings the notification to tell me who is calling does not pop up. I have to go into the phone app to even see who is calling, much less answer the call.

My notification bar is gone.

When I get a text message my phone will vibrate, but not chime.

My wall paper is gone.

I have found threads about rooted phones where people have removed the systemui that this are the same symptoms they have. The problem is that they had the original rooted program they used, so can reinstall that. I cannot do that, as my phone is not rooted. That is why I think my systemui is gone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Install root explorer and check in /system/app folder for the apk, or in /preload/symlink/system/app. If it's there in preload, you will need to create a symlink for that in system/app.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikoah.jaye:
I found it in system/app folder, but cannot install it, the phone says I cannot install it. Is there something else I can do?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
You won't be able to install it as you're not rooted and it requires administrator privileges. But it's there anyway so I don't think that's the issue.

When did it stop working and was there any app you installed beforehand?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikoah.jaye:
It stopped working while I was using Google voice to send a text. And, no I did not download anything right before hand.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Thats really strange... Try rebooting into recovery (Vol up, home and power held down until you see samsung logo) then choose wipe cache and reboot. I doubt that will fix it though.

Only other options I can see are to root device by installing phillz kernel, wipe cache and dalvik from recovery, or root device, reinstall the app and make sure permissions are correct, or wipe device and start from scratch.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
You said you tried to replace it ? How? Do you have an odex or deoxed rom? Anyways you will need root access to resolve this issue if you dont want to go about reinstalling the rom again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikoah.jaye:
That is what I was afraid of. Thank you so much. I did try wiping the cache, and no it did not work. When I get back home to my husband I will try rooting it and going from there. Again thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikoah.jaye:
I looked on the forum and found systemui.apk(s) and downloaded them to my phone and tried to run them. It did not work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThaiDai:
Stop playing with essential parts of your system if you have absolutely no idea of what you are doing.

To get back to a reliable configuration:

download a stock rom and install it following the instructions in Dr. Ketan's thread here.

After that: start to read and learn. High probability this will protect the life of your device.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] highfigh:
Wondering if anyone else is having issues connecting to a 5ghz network? I wasn't able to get it working, wouldn't even show up in available networks. That was stock out of the box, and after flashing a couple ROMs. I'm using slimbean now and am able to connect, but I have to turn WiFi on/off several times on the n7 before it shows up and connects. My s 3 connects no problem.

And I've tried all the standard troubleshooting on the router. Even changed some settings on the 5GHz band.

So if someone could double check for me that would be great!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] EmuZombie:
5ghz works great for me. Reception is the best I've ever gotten on that band. Currently on stock, but it's worked in CM10 too
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] dkb218:
The 5 ghz didn't show up for me either. Had to manually enter the SSID and it connected right away.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Jackalo:
On the first boot it didn't show my 5GHz WiFi, but after I connected it to my 2.4GHz, it immediately downloaded an update and rebooted itself. When it came back up, it saw my 5GHz.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] digitalexplr:
Mine didn't at first either, but after update/reboot no problem. Now connecting at 150meg on 5ghz.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] highfigh:
Still hit or miss for me. Sometimes its connected when I reboot. Usually I have to toggle WiFi on/off 2-3 times.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] player911:
My Nexus 7 connects to my 5ghz router band all the time. I think it actually prefers it. I'm using it right now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] highfigh:
Well I think I have it working. I gave the n7 a static address and now after a half dozen reboots its auto connecting every time. I tried changing channels on the router. Tried 20/40 MHz channel width. Ticked on/off all the options on n7 WiFi settings. Nothing worked. Then I set static address on my tablet and router and like I said so far so good.

I'll update if there are any other issues because doing a search showed a lot of other devices having this issue. But none of the results recommended setting a static address. Maybe I got lucky. I could use my 2.4GHz network reliably but I want full network speed since I only have the 16 GB model and do a lot of folder syncs to keep my SD storage free.

Edit: scratch that. Worked half dozen times in a row. Rebooted after I wrote this and it didn't connect. :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mr1ncred1ble:
During initial setup i was not able to connect to my 5ghz but i was able to connect to my 2.4ghz. After setup was complete i was able to go in and switch it manually to the 5ghz network. If i power the device off and turn it back on it would not connect to my 5ghz or my 2.4ghz. I then went into wifi advanced settings and switched to 5ghz only and it connected immediately to the network and hasn't lost it since. This was true before and after the update, i am stock, unlocked and rooted. I also do not broadcast my ssid.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] highfigh:
If I am connected to 5ghz and go in advanced and select 5ghz only, it disconnects me from WiFi. It will still show my 5ghz network in range with good signal but if I now try to connect..it does nothing. Keep clicking connect and nothing happens. Then go back and put frequency on auto and the 5ghz disappears. I then have to toggle WiFi 4-6 times before it connects again to the 5ghz.

Strange.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ikon8:
I had the same problem at first too. Here's what solved it for me: set 5ghz frequency to 20mhz instead of auto, change the channel from auto to any number you want, 5ghz will most likely be completely clear in your area so just choose any channel. After doing that it should see the 5ghz network every time and connect automatically.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mystycs:
Same issue here. But i have to restart my device. Is it hardware or software you guys think?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] highfigh:
I've tried that. One of the first things I did.

I'm not sure. Seems like software to me because once its connected it stays connected. And the signal range is really good. Better WiFi than any phone I've ever had. Better than my laptop too. My s3 has no problems connecting. Even with all the router settings I've tweaked its never had an issue connecting with the s3.

Are you able to connect?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] EmuZombie:
In another thread someone noticed his WiFi settings were set to Europe. He said he hadn't changed them and that he was fresh on stock (his first time booted). Double check your settings if you're still having issues.

Settings | WiFi | advanced | WiFi region code.

Mine was also set to Europe as well for some reason. If your router is setup to use a channel not available in Europe this would cause the problems described here.

Answer to number 1 is open the multi window sidebar. Drag the app you want into the main window. Then open the sidebar again and drag another app over the app you have running.

This works for some apps not all of them unless you did some mods

Hi all

After finaly getting tomtom version 5 installed I run into the dreaded no backlight

Can any one help here please, I have tried the following so people know, thanks to all who help

I have changed the reg entries manual to 300 and 600 for

HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\ACTimeout

HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\BatteryTimeout

Have tried messing with the backlight settings in the control control, no good

I have tried the tomtom backlight fix, installed the dll, run the setup, says copied shortcut, the shortcut is there with no icon, when i run it, nothing happens

Does any one else have any more ideas otherwise i will have to reflash my xda2 back to 2003 Sad

final solution to tomtom5 backlight problem

Hello,

I was sick of using the regeditor to fix the messed up backlight settings everytime I started TomTom5, so I looked for a better solution.

I figured it would be the best if TomTom wouldnt mess with the settings

at all, so I changed the binary. it is not very hard to do.

copy the TomTom Navigator.exe to you windows pc.

grab a hex editor and change the following

0x182b9c 0x61 -> 0x62

0x182c0c 0x61 -> 0x62

0x182c3c 0x61 -> 0x62

0x182ca0 0x61 -> 0x62

what this does is change all the Registry Paths

ControlPanel\Backlight

to

ControlPanel\Bbcklight

as the result, TomTom will not be able to modify the settings at all.

everything will stay with your default values.

have fun
