Leap of faith!

Hi all

Interesting info in this thread.

I have an O2 XDA IIi with the following device info:

ROM version: 1.10.00 WWE

ROM date: 12/24/04

Radio version: 1.00.00

Protocol version: 1337.39

ExtRom version: 1.10.124 WWE

I have the annoing gprs bug where it connects ok 1st time and then if i get a phone call or disconnect it wont connect again. I have to turn flight mode on and then off to get it to work...so annoying!

Also it has the bluetooth bug where some time when i use TT5 it doesnt initialise so i have to reboot the XDA so BT starts to work again...

...and lastly the little icon that flips the screen (bottom right of today screen) has a mind of its own and sometimes appears after a reboot.

I hope Pug's rom will resolve this. I looks like it has worked ok for most of you but i havent made the leap in case i open up a can of worms that will take days and days to fix.

has any one backed up using sprite backup before updating? did you manage to restore everything back to normal after the update so you didnt have to re install all your software/settings?

Any info on this will be greatly appriciated!

Can I Update my QTek 2020i with the XDAIIi update

Hi i wanted to find out if I could update my qteck with the xda 2i update because i bought online and they did not give me any o2 settings or softwares like the xda 2i with it. So my internet doesnt work nor do I have the features that other xda2is have.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jamiet:
Hi all,

I have a Qtek 2020i and I downloaded the modified XDA IIi rom using the link in this thread. I followed the instructions above exactly and ran the MAUpgradeUT_noid.exe program. I keep getting the same error no matter how many times I run the upgrade program. The error I get is:

Is this the error everyone is saying you get once and run it again and the upgrade works? I tried running the upgrade again and it does not work. Fortunatley apart from initially connecting to the device it does not write anything so my device is working but is on the old rom. How do I upgrade a QTEC 2020i with this ROM?

TIA

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jamiet:
OK scratch the issue below. I performed a rom backup to sd before doing this upgrade and to do that I had to close ativesync. It would appear that was the problem. After restarting activesync and trying again it came up with a different error and next time I ran the program it started the upgrade. Fingers crossed it should go smoothly :D
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] stevepage:
Dont get too excited - I had this ROM on a pre-release, and I can catogorically state that it does not solve the GPRS freezing problem (which incidentlally O2 does not believe is a problem as their help desks are not inundated with calls).

In fact I am struggling (between reboots) to fathom what the benefit is. They have told me they suspect a problem with the phone and a newer ROM is on its way, but I'm not holding my breath.

I also own a HP 6510 - superb - never needs a reboot. How have O2 got it so wrong I wonder?

i have a coporate install of the new o2 rom cant get gprs internet to work on pay'n'go battery life is less
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] steee.graham:
I just upgraded my rom to run blackberry coz o2 told me they'd add the blackberry.net apn for free on my existing tariff to be told on the 3rd attempt to get it added that it'd cost me an extra £15!!..

the problem I have is this..

I always had the gprs problem but wasn't too fussed as everything else (especially tomtom3) worked like a dream.

I was daft enough not to have written down the exact version of the rom I used to have but now I am running extended rom version 1.11.169 WWE, same basic rom 1.11.00, don't know if the radio version has changed but don't think so. Tomtom randomly stops picking up the gps position!! I have to either restart tomtom, untick the port and turn it back on again or restart the xda2i !! It's a nightmare !

I think I had ext rom version 1.11.128 before but it may be any 1.11.12? from memory - my memory isn't that good that's why I'm gutted I never wrote it down.

I currently have radio version 1.00 and originally thought it was that because it seemed to stop tomtom every time I changed cell site in transit or took a call with it running. So I tried flight mode and the same thing happened.

If anyone can help me with either the old rom (g0dz1lar has v1.11.124) or an idea to update radio alone to resolve the tomtom prob, I'd me most grateful as I dont want bb so am happy to revert to my prev rom.

oh and I use a 512mb card which I've had no problems with on any version of xda.

cheers

Is it possible?

Help please.

I tried Pugs update and got the same error as Sidewindr :-

The file "rofs_target.zip" was not copied sucesfully. To re-install, you will need to get the source .cab file again. Continue with Setup?

Anyone have the answer ??

My settings are now :-

rom version 1.11.00wwe

rom date 01/27/05

radio version 1.03.00

protocol version 1337.42

extrom version [BLANK]

I also got the same error when downloading the latest rom from O2 this week, which is why I thought I would try Pugs version.

kindly help me solve this issue..........i tried installing light jb 1.2 ...now as per instructions it was to be installed by booting into recovery ...now being new i had no knowledge that this recovery meant CWM and not stock recovery and i tried installing through samsung's stock jb recovery (DDULP8 rom).,.........

If not, do it now. After that you can try to install JB again. And you can install CoCore kernel, and have permanent CWM or TWRP recovery.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
Preload is a pertition in System, where some apks are stored (some of apps are there, and in system/app there are its shortcuts). Mount mean to make them usable, I am not sure how to explain you simple in english. Like you have 2 harddrives on PC but they need to be powered on to be used. This is bad example, but you will get what I mean. If you do not know how to mount it, look on google "How to mount system partition in CWM".

Small request for someone knowledgeable to extract the Motorola Skip app that it might have the ability to be ported to another phone (though I'm sure there's a whack of framework addons as well)

Motorola Skip is not available in Canada... i can't install via playstore ( have try to change some setting to fake network but don't work )

Check on att system dump ... maybe you can get this apps...
[Moto X Q&A] jonnyg1097:
If I recall correctly, isnt there like a playstore app mod that makes your phone seem like your phone is in another country so you can have access to that country's specific apps?
[Moto X Q&A] ImWarped:
It's not looking for your country, it's a device block. The app you're thinking of is Market Enabler, but you still need a Moto X to download the apk
[Moto X Q&A] thund3rbay:

[Moto X Q&A] empoweredh22:
Isn't Skip just a Moto-branded NFC tag? If so theoretically any NFC reader would work with it, no? You could use Tasker to do x task when the Skip is read, I would think.

Or try this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qnsolv.tag
[Moto X Q&A] ImWarped:
Tasker lacks any and all NFC handling/interaction.

The NFC App you posted, lacks the ability to effect the lock screen.
[Moto X Q&A] Mikegrmn:
I've actually got it to work. Although I'd love to still try the skip app.

I use tasker, NFC task launcher and secure settings. My razr HD is rooted and unlocked and the screen unlock only works reliably with the pattern lock (the pin lock got me unreliable unlocks). I use a Samsung tectile which I stickied to a duck tape loop which fits over my belt. :)
[Moto X Q&A] ImWarped:
Good to know... buuuuuuuut...

I still think you are all missing the point... I just want the damn app from Motorola LOL

A- It's FREE

B- It's not 3 different apps/plugins to accomplish 1 task

C- IT'S FREE:good:
[Moto X Q&A] Mikegrmn:
I want the skip app, too. Just to try it out :)

Although, from what I've seen in a review video, the app didn't seem to work as reliably as the tasker setup. Even if the screen was supposed to turn on once a tag was tapped, it mostly required you to turn on the screen and then tap the tag.

And honestly, I doubt that the skip app will just work on my razr HD without tweaking the app. I run stock Motorola Android 4.1.2, and for the phones settings I need secure settings app to change the system settings as the regular OS doesn't allow external apps to change the settings. But still, once the app becomes available, I'll give it a shot. Just like you said, it's just one app.

I hope someone finds a way to use the skip and skip dots for something other than just unlocking. It's just too limited right now to be very exciting.
[Moto X Q&A] Mikegrmn:
Well, considering how often I unlock my phone over the course of a day, it may not be exciting to just unlock, but it definitevely is convenient. Although I'd love Motorola to support other NFC enabled devices, too.

I can understand that they have this thingy for the Moto X exclusively (I mean it's one of their selling points), but if older phones can do, too, why not support it?

[ info ]

So guys I have got root on the newest firmware 6.2.B.1.96!

Since Sony has patched our beloved perf_event exploit (with which we rooted 30+ Xperia devices) I had to find an alternate way... so I did the smart thing, just used the kernel on which the exploit works, root the device and flash back the newest kernel!

THIS WORKS ON BOTH LOCKED & UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS!

BTW if someone needs a full FTF of this new firmware here it is: XperiaS_LT26i_6.2.B.1.96_1257-6919.ftf - 485.30 MB

[ proof ]

[ NOTICE ]

THIS IS ONLY FOR THE XPERIA S/SL (LT26i/ii) FW 6.2.B.1.96!

DO NOT USE IT ON ANY OTHER VARIANT/FIRMWARE!

[ sources & additional info on exploit ]

check out this thread

[ how-to ]

Download the three files from the download section below

open FlashTool and flash the XperiaS_LT26i_6.2.B.0.211_KernelOnly.ftf - 6.36 MB file, this is JUST the kernel of an older firmware which was rootable

now once flashing is done reboot device and connect to PC in usb debuggin mode

CLOSE FLASHTOOL <<< VVVIMP STEP

extract the file DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v18_perf-event-exploit.zip to root directory on c:\

execute runme_ file corresponding to your OS on desktop PC, this will execute a SPECIAL version of my easy rooting toolkit <<< VVVIMP STEP

the above step is crucial! if you use any older version of the toolkit then IT WILL NOT WORK!

after rooting is over the device will restart

you can verify if device is rooted by checking for SuperSU app (it is the newest version)

once thats done now power down device and open FlashTool again

now flash XperiaS_LT26i_6.2.B.1.96_KernelOnly.ftf - 6.33 MB file to get back to the true kernel for the firmware

thats it after flashing is done just disconnect and power on device and enjoy rooted phone!

Unfortunately, no link for downloading tools, kernels etc. is working. One is directed to "dev-host" site and there are two download buttons. The blue one does not work and the green one directs to some zip-download containing some .exe file (which i assume is definitely a virus).

Can you give a new link where one can download your great tools? Because they seem to work really good. I think without them i cannot root my Xperia S.
