[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
TW Super Status Bar is on 4.1.2, if CM10.1 is 4.2.2 based then it isn't it is just the Super Status Bar and you should be able to do the same thing with it by changing to this com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.StatusBarWindowView android:background="#00000000" and in res / values / drawables.xml this <item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#00000000</item>

If you have a black wallpaper then you have made an error somewhere both these changes affect the status bar only
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyuLilium:
Alright I'm writing every step I'm taking.

After setting up apktool (aapt.exe, apktool.bat, apktool.jar, cmd.exe, framework-res.apk...)

1 cmd.exe

2 apktool if framework-res.apk

3 apktool d SystemUI.apk

4 \SystemUI\res\layout\super_status_bar.xml Edit with Notepad++

5 changed <com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.StatusBarWindowView android:background="@*android:color/transparent" with #00000000

6 exit and save

7 \SystemUI\res\values\drawtables.xml Edit with Notepad++

8 change <item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#ff000000</item> to #00000000

9 exit and save

10 go back to cmd.exe

11 type apktool b SystemUI SystemUI.apk -but before pressing enter remember to delete the old one so it doesn't overwrite or mess up somehow

12 Copying the new apk into the sd card

13 using a file browser ( i use solid explorer) with superuser permission I copy and overwrite over the old SystemUI.apk

14 The phone automatically reboots

Result: The screen is black, missing status bar, long pressing doesn't show the running apps etc.. basically the UI is crippled

Hi, I'm a relatively experienced xda2 user. I have vodafone internet working fine but not MMS.

I have (I Think) the correct settings for WAP and MMS and when I send, it connects to the vodafone wap connection and the icon appears in the notification area for sending the mms but it never goes.Also, a reveived mms will not be downloaded to the xda2, just an sms appears to tell me to log on to the vodafone website to see it.

Also, I cannot browse wap wites in IE or special wap browsers.

Vodafone customer care tell me it's all set up their end for my old phone (RAZR V3) and that they have no settings for xda and therefore it may never work. They say every specific phone needs specific settings on their end for mms to work.

Has ANYONE got MMS working in Ireland for Vodafone on XDA2. If so, what are your exact settings and what phone does Vodafone think you are using? (maybe some settings on their end work for XDA).

THANKS!!!

hi good morning guys i have a gt-i8190l galaxy mini whenever i put the battery in it just automatically powers up without me pressing the power button do you have any suggestions with regards to that issue i cannot get to access the download mode
[Hardware Hacking General] eduds:
Hey, welcome to XDA!

You can enter in download mode this way:

1. Remove the battery;

2. Hold the necessary buttons;

3. Put the battery;

4. Wait and see!
[Hardware Hacking General] Sadam32:
yea Ive actually tried that didn't work
[Hardware Hacking General] eduds:
Did you try with an app or using some ADB command?
[Hardware Hacking General] Sadam32:
i use the odin v3.07. alright here is what i did i removed the battery press the vol down button the home key the but by the time i could press the power button the phone was already powered on. so i removed the battery and placed back in and the phone vibrated and booted up.so i though it was the power button that is defective in the sense that a trigger is closed thus allowing the device to be powered up without pressing the power button. but as for the ADB im not familiar with it.

Just wondering, why don't you use WIFI tethering feature.

Just put the phone in wifi tethering mode and use the phone as a wifi hotspot. It's much easier.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kingofthebraves:
I've been reading up on all the possible issues so far and the list goes on and on. Is it worth the risk? From random reboots, to even wifi range.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
IMO, I think it is worth the risk. I think all the problems are addressable and will eventually be solved either by ASUS/Google or our intrepid developers here. It is really an amazing piece of hardware. It is just going through some teething pains at the moment.

Also, even if you don't like it and even if you exceed the take-back period, I think you would be able to sell it for enough to come close to recovering your cost, so the risk is minimal either way.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mwatson:
No problem with mine. Poor iPad is gettin dusty though!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] p282:
No need to worry. I would recommend only buying the tablet from a place that will allow you to easily exchange it. In case you get a unit with dust under the screen or light bleed. I personally had to go through 4 until I had gotten a perfect unit. Hopefully they have worked out the kinks with the new batches shipping out. Just note a good amount of tablet manufacturers, not just Asus, seem to skimp on the quality.

I am really happy with my tablet! It is everything that I need it to be for the price.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] detonation:
Bought mine from Amazon on release day and it's had no issues. I wouldn't be worried...remember that usually the only people to speak up are ones that are having problems. Most people aren't going to come to a forum just to post that their device is working as it should.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] railed:
Agreed. Mine is working great... although my first unit did have faulty speakers... Returned it and exchanged at BB no problem. So not really much to worry about as the return/exchange policies at most reputable places are very good.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kingofthebraves:
From what I've read GPS and multi touch issues might be fixed as long as they're not hardware related. It's very much possible that there are different hardware combinations for different batches of the n7.

How do I know if my unit has a wifi problem out of the box? I live in the Philippines so it's a long way from the US if I have to return it lol! But aside from the note 10.1 2013, there arent really any alternatives to good high end android tablets.
[HTC One X] andy1982:
i followed this and now my phone wont boot past the cyanogenMod screen

Need help guys hopefully one of you can help me with step by step instructions.

The last ROM I installed was 10-20130127-NIGHTLY-endeavour

How do I get to the latest update. I have tried using the check for updates section and downloaded a later version but it fails to install

---End Quote---

First, your phone alone can not update your ROM from january to now, as there are kernel changes (boot.img). Kernel must be flashed from PC, so you might as well download the update from PC.

For the latest RC download THIS (http://get.cm/?device=endeavoru&type=RC). If you want nightly, find it in OP

Copy the zip to sdcard

Open zip and extract boot.img to your PC

For Google stuff, get THIS (http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip)

Copy the zip to sdcard

Do step 2 to 8 from OP:

2. Do a Nandroid backup!

Reboot to Recovery. Backup.

3. WIPE

Format /cache and /system and Advanced - wipe dalvik

4. Install the ROM

Install rom.zip from sdcard

5. Optionally install the Google Addon

install gapps from sdcard

6. Download boot.img as well

(or copy from rom.zip)

7. boot into boot loader (adb reboot bootloader). Use fastboot and ‘fastboot flash boot boot.img’ through usb to have the correct kernel/boot image. Otherwise it won’t work/boot.

Make sure you get confirmation that image is flashed. Fastboot can take some time to work. "fastboot devices" will show your serial if it works.

8. 'fastboot erase cache' is recommended if you have booting issues

Installing the rom failed and was aborted now none of my backups will start either
[HTC One X] Stefan0vic:
Are you sure your phone is endeavor and not the XL variant?
[HTC One X] andy1982:
i think its because i have the wrong hboot for the rom my hboot is 0.95

Requirements:

Sony tablet Z Wifi version aka pollux_windy

Unlocked Bootloader

Sony Firmware 4.2.2

a computer with working fastboot

Install Procedure:

connect device to pc

Open CMD/Terminal and cd to the folder you have placed the boot image

type this in CMD/Terminal:

adb reboot bootloader

Now Flash using:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Now Reboot your tablet by:

Download Link: (POLLUX_WINDY ONLY)

boot.img

Credits:

Koush- for clockwork mod

DooMLoRD- for his recovery ramdisk

@dinitro - for actually taking the time to compile the cwm with stock kernel, this guy deserves all the credit

Since this is pure stock kernel with a custom recovery i assume i dont have to post the kernel sources, If there is a issue mods are welcomed to notify me via PM.

Rooting Instructions:

Download the latest zip from Here and move to device

Reboot to recovery

Flash

Reboot

Woot! Thanks. Gonna try it out tonight.

releasing the kernel first so people can be ready when i release my dual boot for tablet z :)

more details on my pac thread
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] jpearn:
Damn, I spent ages getting the root on 4.2.2 sorted out this morning ! Thanks !
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] ibis69:
Thanx for your work !

I assume it will never work on with locked bootloader ?
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] bluefa1con:
locked bootloader= cant flash a kernel other than stock sony kernel

there is a way to have recovery on locked bootloader but it still needs root

i am too busy these days, if only i had time i would look at xperia z root exploit and implement it on tab z

meanwhile here is what u can do

backup your TA parition

unlock bootloader and root via this method

flash back to stock sony kernel

restore your TA and your device would behave like it was never unlocked
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Half Alive:
Unlocked my bootloader a few moments ago .. Trying your kernel now.

...

It can access to the internal storage but i don't have any files to flash.

And error appears when trying to mount or install zip from the external storage.

Thank you So much we appreciate your hard work. =)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] bluefa1con:
Do u mean it doesn't show any files on internal memory? The files are in the 0 folder

I didn't test the sdcard yet

Here is a surprise coming soon :)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Half Alive:
Just tried now flashing from the internal storage ,.. And it's Working.

Hope you can fix the external_sd problem ,.

And that Big surprise is coming soon like today ? :D :p

Can't wait to test it. :good::good:
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] pangiotis24:
with that great surprise you say,since sony roms can only be primary,what if we have already installed an aosp rom?will we be able to move it to secondary rom partition or we will have to reinstall it from scratch?finally the second rom will be stored at /cache or at /sdcard?sorry if i reveal some of your surprise with these questions
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] bluefa1con:
currently the project is in its infancy, we got basic dual boot done and we got more plans

copy your data partition to some other place (sdcard etc) and copy it back when u install pac on second rom

we got big plans for this and we are talking to recovery devs to customize the recovery for RomSwitch dual boot implementation

[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Rootk1t:
Is this kernel from 311 or 312 version of Tablet Z?
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] bluefa1con:
Should work on both, I have tested on 311 because that's the device I have but both are identical besides more storage capacity
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] drazyw:
Well it seems to work perfect. Followed all the steps and it worked flawlessly. After a few days of struggling to maintain root when updating to 4.2.2 with Sony's OTA, this took 5 min. Thanks for all the work. Can't wait to try out some dual boot stuff now.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] aashayjardosh:
I tried this procedure on my SGP321 LTE Tablet. After flashing the boot.img, my tablet refuses to boot up. There is just a Red LED. No Sony logo or nothing. I somehow managed to get it into Fastboot mode (Blue LED) but apart from that I cannot do anything. On trying Vol - and plugging the USB at the same time, the FlashTool recognizes the Flash Mode (but there is no Green LED) I even tried flashing the FTF through the FlashTool but it gets stuck on flashing data. I really am struggling since 5 hours. Is my Tablet dead? I really cannot figure out what to do next :( Please help me!!
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] mamenyaka:
Do not worry, you just flashed the wrong kernel for your device, happens to everyone. Just simply try to flash your FTF, or you could install Cyanogenmod.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] aashayjardosh:
I tried flashing the 4.2.2 FTF but it gets stuck on loading data. I tried flashing the boot.img from CM10.2 but that too gets stuck on 'Flashing Selected Kernel'..:confused:
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] mamenyaka:
You need to flash the boot.img with fastboot.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] aashayjardosh:
Forgive my noobness...but where do I get the original 4.2.2 boot.img from? I extracted the 4.2.2 FTF but there is no boot.img in it. On the other hand I extracted the boot.img of CM10.2 but that gets stuck on Flashing selected kernel.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] mamenyaka:
Where do you get that Flashing selected kernel message? You need to "fastboot flash boot boot.img" when in fastboot mode (blue led).
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] aashayjardosh:
I'm trying it in FlashTool. It gets stuck on sending 'boot' <10206 KB> via ADB.

PS: I also unlocked my bootloader right before this procedure. After that the tablet booted up perfectly. Then I flashed this threads boot.img and got stuck!
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] bluefa1con:
i assume your boot loader is unlocked

you flashed the kernel for pollux_windy on a pollux device

reboot to fastboot

place the cm boot.img in a place you remember

after that in cmd/terminal cd to the folder you have placed boot.img and do "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and u can follow the standard cm install procedure

Hi. I'm curruntly on 4.2.2 (SGP312FR). I wanted to downgrade before unlocking bootloader to backup TA, but whatever previous FTF i flash, TabZ won't boot (bootloop). Is there something I'm missing ?

[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] aashayjardosh:
Well i think my Tablets dead. Tried adb, FlashTool, Emma.....the tablet goes into Flash Mode as well as FastBoot Mode and also gets detected by Emma and FlashTool but thats about it. The moment I apply any FTF, it gets stuck at loading header. even when i try fastboot flash boot boot.img with a CM10.2 or Stock Kernel, it gets stuck on sending data. I'm not too sure but maybe I messed up the TA or something. So I guess its curtains for my Tablet. I'll be sending it over to Sony and see what they can help me out with. :crying:
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] nikal:
Before you got it handed to Sony, try Sony PC companion Support Zone (I managed to restore my tab using this utility after I got a boot loop issue).
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] drazyw:
Mine did that. I was on 10.3.1.C.0.136 (4.2.2) and flashed back to 10.1.C.0.344. I had to flash the FTF twice for it to work. FIrst flash resulted in a boot loop. Second flash worked. So try again and see if it works.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] flechaig:
Thank for your answer, but too late, I unlocked my bootloader... without a TA Backup. Might be helpful for others, though. Thanks again.

--> NO you must use sony tool. But you can relock it afterwards if you want to come back to stock kernel/rom : you must have made a backup of your TA files BEFORE UNLOCKING (need root) with this tools (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2292598)
