I tried flashing another recovery and now I cant even get into recovery. I get the following in red at the top "secure fail: kernel" Then I get a yellow triangle below that that says "system software not authorized by verizon has been found on your phone, yada yada" Am I screwed? I tried flashing cwm advanced edition
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scottgalit61:
I dont think u'll lock the bootloader as long as u dont take the me7 update... factory reset then reroot right after....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dolphlungegrin:
You can't flash a new recovery from inside the GPE port. Since you got the triangle of doom I'm guessing that's what you did. You need to ODIN back to the MDK stock Tar file. I don't know who has it but the download link is on here. Then you need to reroot using the MDK root method, which requires you to download the MD2 bootloader tar file and the MDK boatloader tar file and the motochopper root exploit tool. After you have root, update the binaries. Then power off and reflash back to the MDK (using the .tar file) Once back in MDK you can download a new custom recovery. TWRP or CWM. Boot into recovery and make a full nandroid backup. This way if crap hits the fans again you can reflash your backup. After your backup is done. Download the GPE zip file (I usually put it in my microsd card) then boot back into recovery and reflash the GPE ROM.

Important things to remember.

1.) Don't install the ME7 tar file in ODIN when reflashing

2.) Don't accept the update that OTA

3.) Don't reflash from inside the GPE ported ROM

4.) Don't forget to update the Root binaries from google play after installation

Anyone in India got the official 4.2.2 update through pc-companion or OTA?
[Sony Xperia ZR] djpeesh:
Nope. But you can make your phone a 5503 with the nordic 4.2.2 ftf. Solves all my problems and believe it or not, my cellphone reception is way better. And don't even get me started on battery life.

[Sony Xperia ZR] george101:
Still no update.. Geez, how long is this gonna take
[Sony Xperia ZR] krumplib430:
The same for the Hong Kong version :( , still waiting for the update.

(and no, I don't want to install nordic/russian version and root my phone)
[Sony Xperia ZR] chewdaniel:
u don't have to... flashtool can flash any official firmware without unlocking bootloader. i have a malaysian unit and flashed the nordic rom. still not rooted, BL still locked.

the only thing i can say about the nordic rom vs the official one for my region is the inclusion of Music Unlimited which doesn't work here... :/
[Sony Xperia ZR] defychrist:
Update depending on Region?

Hi there, I dont want to open a new thread for this question so i put it here.

I live in Germany and bought a Xperia ZR C5502 (without LTE) from Singapore which came with 4.1.2 .

Now neither the pc companion nor the phone itself offer me an update.

Is it possible that I ll never get an update notification because the phone is not officially sold in Germany?

What can I do to update it? I don't know whether i should flash a Rom manually since I need a 100% working phone...

Thank you very much,

Regards
[Sony Xperia ZR] DoO37:
i think that If you flash the Nordic/Russian 4.2.2 ROM with the Flashtool it'll work 100% as it's for the same device..

Correct me Guys if i'm wrong :/
[Sony Xperia ZR] defychrist:
Ok, but where do get the C5502 Version of the ROM?

Thanks, Ok I'll do that. I ve seen in the Original Android Development thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2384512

that now there is a special 5502 version of the ROM. Unfortunately the link is down. (Thank you Dropbox).

Could anyone who's downloaded the C5502_10.3.1.A.0.244_Pudding_TW.ftf reupload it ?

Thank you in advance!
[Sony Xperia ZR] halfbloodmutant:
Any news on the 4.2.2 indian update for india. I dont want to flash any other version. And when the update will be available will it be shown in update center in the phone or will have to connect the phone to pc via pc companion and check from time to time.

:)
[Sony Xperia ZR] akash4357:
Yes the India update is now seeding. Checked via PC Companion. It shows Update available. (Android 4.2.2)
[Sony Xperia ZR] soumya_digi:
So you've updated? Can you please share your phone's Software Info screen under Service>Service Info?
[Sony Xperia ZR] tudork:
You will get the update. I bought a Hong Kong version in Romania and I got the update eventually.
[Sony Xperia ZR] akash4357:
I wish I could since I'm currently testing CM 10.1. But I've already posted the ftf download links in the original android development thread. Feel free to flash it
[Sony Xperia ZR] ayushbh:
i just now checked via pc companion but the update is still not there..:(
[Sony Xperia ZR] idroid2324:
Any improvements after updating to 4.2? I'm planning to purchase this cell.
[Sony Xperia ZR] ayushbh:
well i again checked but the update is still not showing on my sony pc companion..can u tell me what could be the reason behind this..my mobile is also from India only..
[Sony Xperia ZR] AdX9170:
Thats weird :/ im in bangalore too and theres no update showing up on PC Companion or the Update center app on my phone :( cant wait for this update!!!!
[Sony Xperia ZR] priyank07:
Well, even I didn't receive the official update in India for ZR.
[Sony Xperia ZR] akash4357:
Well I chose my location as the US while installing PC Companion. You might want to try that.
[Sony Xperia ZR] AdX9170:
oh i didn't think that would make a difference :eek: will try that n report back here..

Edit: nope that didn't help :(
[Sony Xperia ZR] priyank07:
I don't think that should've made a difference, because IMEI number of device is checked for location, while updating, I guess.
[Sony Xperia ZR] ayushbh:
i also tried this trick but it did not work out..
[Sony Xperia ZR] AdX9170:
Yea I know I thot so too coz it depends on the specific phone n not just the location.. Pretty sure it wouldn't hv found an update even if I was actually updating from the US as long as the phone is from India.

Well now that vr seeing ppl here getting the update, shouldn't take more than a few days for everyone to receive it I guess..
[Sony Xperia ZR] chewdaniel:
taiwan :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] akash4357:
Yes it is. If you do look a page back there's a screenshot of an update notification via PC Companion for the C5502 Variant. I can't flash that since I've an unlocked bootloader. PC Companion and Update Service identifies that as modified software and won't flash.
[Sony Xperia ZR] halfbloodmutant:
Till now I didnot get the update notification in the pc companion. And will I have to connect my phone during the update via pc companion i.e. when the pc companion downloads the update. My net connection is slow so it will take around two hours to download the update(700 mb I guess). Is it possibe to disconnect the phone during the downloading time and reconnect when the download completes?

What does the Sony service centers in India have to say about the update?. Has anyone inquired about the 4.2.2 update for this phone at customer service desk?.
[Sony Xperia ZR] AdX9170:
i sent them a mail regarding this.. i wrote "it says on ur site that the update schedule varies from country to country but the update has been announced more than a month back. surely u might have an approximate ETA by now".

no reply from sony yet :(
[Sony Xperia ZR] halfbloodmutant:
Yeah and the sony support site says the update is available in india.
[Sony Xperia ZR] priyank07:
Still no update. Are they even planning to release this update in India?
[Sony Xperia ZR] soumya_digi:
Wait for another month!

[Sony Xperia ZR] djpeesh:
They aren't upgrading to 4.2.2 in India. If you want 4.2.2, use the Nordic or other ROMs that are around. Just confirmed with the service center. No plans as of now to upgrade ZR in India beyond 4.1.2 (so no 4.3 either)
[Sony Xperia ZR] priyank07:
This is bad. Why are ZR users in India being treated in such a way?
[Sony Xperia ZR] AdX9170:
no way will they pull off something like that. the sony india page says

"Latest available software

You may already have the latest software, depending on the date of purchase. Software updates are released at different times depending on operator and/or country. Therefore, we cannot give you an exact date for when a specific update will be available for your device.

we just have to be patient.. very patient actually. but v will definitely get the update someday
[Sony Xperia ZR] priyank07:
Well, if they had to release the software, they would've released it by now.

And as for the information given on the site, it is the same on all the variants of the website, be it global, Indian, or some other country.

plz someone tell me that if i install 4.2.2 via flashtool will i loose all the data and setting etc.. of my phone???
[Sony Xperia ZR] ralf_waldo:
You can always claim your warranty back by re-flashing the stock firmware via flash tool.
[Sony Xperia ZR] effective:
Only phone data :)
[Sony Xperia ZR] ayushbh:
in the wipe section if i deselect all the three i.e data,cache and appslog will this create any problem in flashing the new rom??
[Sony Xperia ZR] effective:
Didn't tried with these one off.Better make a fresh and clean install to avoid any problems :highfive:
[Sony Xperia ZR] ayushbh:
no problem in doing a clean install..main problem is of installing all the apps again and also the save games of the game installed gets deleted in the process..:)
[Sony Xperia ZR] effective:
Apps are saved in your playstore acc so u just need to install them again,not to search.And for the games if you installed the cache in the SD you wont have a prob with that eather :fingers-crossed:

I have flashed 4.2.2 TW without wiping data. Just check the wipe APPSLOG option only, no need to wipe DATA and CACHE. Everything is working fine so far.

Glitch in battery status

After 10.3.1.A.2.67 Update (jellybean 4.2.2), there's been glitch in battery status, sudden drops in battery level, Stamina Mode not working as it used to do in 4.1.2. Anybody else experiencing the same?

And Take Screenshot option removed from power option menu? I don't see it after update.
[Sony Xperia ZR] AdX9170:
Screenshot can be taken by holding the power and vol- buttons.

I hv another bug to ask abt.. When music is playing on the Walkman app, the lock screen becomes very glitchy for some reason.. When I swipe between lock screen pages, it suddenly jumps back to the main page.. This happens regardless of which widgets I hv on the pages

If you have SmartKey installed on your phone, uninstall it.

To come back to the topic of this thread,

is there still somebody who has not yet recieved the 4.2.2 update? or am I the only one?...

Im really starting to wonder if there is anything wrong with some settings - or my country is not supported by sony.

So if somebody who lives in germany also has got the c5502 without update notification (no OTA, no pc companion) please tell me so that i can rule out a specific problem with my phone.

thanks

Try contacting Sony to find out if they hv started the update process in Germany.

The Sony site mentioned an update for a month n a half before v actually started receiving it here in India so ul probably get it there eventually as well..
[Sony Xperia ZR] halfbloodmutant:
I have got the notification for 4.2.2 update in pcc but didn't update the phone cause I know the file is about 700 mb and my net connection is not fast. But today I got a notification in the update center of the phone of the same update i.e. 10.3.1.A.2.67 but its only 212.7 mb in size. Can someone explain how update in pc companion is north of 700mb but update through update center of phone ie OTA is of only 213 mb.
[Sony Xperia ZR] Mario.D:
OTA just update the software and trough pc it makes a clean install and after that restores your apps and settings.

Atleast i think thats how its work.

That could also explain why root remain then you update OTA.

Just wanted to say this ROM is sweet! This is the most stable 4.3 ROM I have tried yet and the only ROM that has working AVRCP (displays the track title and artist name on my stereo) for streaming music via bluetooth. I've been waiting for this feature and this is now my daily driver because of it.

One minor bug I found while seting everything up last night, when I turn off the quick settings panel System Stings -> System -> Quick Settings I get repeated System UI crashes upon reboot. I played around with this last night and narrowed down the root cause to this, for me anyway. This is the only bug I've found and is extremely minor and easy to live with.
