Dose anyone still has a Extended Rom and see version # on WM5.0, After upgarde from 2003 to wn 5.0?

I don't have extended rom any more after i did upgarde.

if anyone does, please let me know how? or how to rebuild new one under 5.0!!

Thanks
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] z_rudy:
If you following the wiki instructions, while upgrading, you were instructed to remove the ExtROM partition (actually, make it 128 KB only and format it). Thus, there is no ExtROM anymore. So, no one with a WM5.0 currently has an Extended ROM unless he made it manually.

Thanks for your reply. now i am happy that was not a mistake

Nice ROM specs. Just one question, with the "Remove Videos Stock", does this mean you removed the Video Player? Then what video player does this ROM has? Please clarify this. Thanks!

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] shbaldw:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Hi people. This is my 3rd android device. Two samsung products, and now the Z ultra.

So I have no idea what people are talking about... I'm used to ODIN... so is flashtool a similar piece of software?

My xperia Z hasn't arrived yet, Im just trying to get my head around sony and the way their devices are run..

So.. questions...

1. Backup your TA partition (I read that this has important info that I don't want to loose... Do i do this with flashtool? Do i also reflash this partition at a later date?)

2. Unlock your bootloader (Why are some people not unlocking bootloader... Do I understand correctly that some features will stop working... like x-reality?? If so, can't they just be reactivated with a custom ROM?)

3. I see there is a recovery for locked bootloaders... (can you still flash kernel's custom ROM's zips using CWM with a locked bootloader?)

Ive spent 3 days looking on the threads here, but I think because of my previous devices I have a preconceived idea of what i should be doing.. I'm confused.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] greggCc:
Oh thanks god!! I have been waiting for someone to ask... I didn't want to get labeled as a noob! :b
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] unk_damnation:
Now everyone knows you're a n00b! :D

First of all, the minus of unlocking bootloader is losing your DRM keys. To do this, sony has provided us an official way through their website (just google it). Or you can do this via flashtool too. After unlocking, you will lose xreality engine and won't get FW update from sony anymore through official means (pcc or ota, but you can always flash). Some says trackID will be lost, too, but hey, who use it anyway?

The plus is, you entered godmode for flashing anything into your phone.

Unlocked bootloader can be relocked through flashtool, but relocked is not the same as locked, because xreality is still lost, cmiiw. To restore to original locked state, use backupTA (search thread in xda) BEFORE unlocking bootloader. And backupTA needs root, so we need root w/o unlock bootloader first (already plenty in other threads).

And yeah, what a maze this is.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Ok thanks, that confirmed what i thought about bootloader..

Can you still flash VIA CWM with a locked bootloader?

otherwise as i understand it...

1) root device

2) backup TA parition

3) unlock bootloader

4) flash ROM/kernel/etc

5) reflash TA partition.

done... custom ROM with x-reality support?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] unk_damnation:
Limited options. Most ROMs required unlocked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
so there will be some ROM's that don't require an unlocked bootloader??

Why are not all ROM's like this, then x-reality / track ID's would not be a problem...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] unk_damnation:
Well it's harder to make, apparently. Currently even custom recovery for locked bootloader is not finished yet. Check the development section. And flashing things that normally isn't allowed on locked does have limitations, check in other xperia devices threads.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
ok... say I have flashed a ROM... i can then flash the TA partition and then I have that ROM with x-reality working?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
Actually on firmware .510 with unlocked bootloader and I still have Xreality. Making your Ta backup is mainly to be able to restore your device in case of softbrick or restore your phone to stock.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
I read that members running 510 have the reality box to check, but most say it doesn't make a difference, and that its not working in the album
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
Right i don't see difference on album. But I see it on videos.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bigbiff:
I am looking at getting the phone too. From what I understand is when your bootloader is locked, it will only load signed boot partitions. So any modification to the boot partition outside of the official stock kernel will not boot when locked. So installing any custom kernel (OC/UV/etc) with stock rom needs unlocked bootloader, or installing CM (which has it's own kernel anyway). So best is getting custom roms (only modified system) with stock kernel.

Also like already said, unlocked bootloader means no updates from Sony. I would backup TA at all costs anyway.

I doubt stock kernel supports kexec, but I guess you can hack the system init process to load different ramdisks. Which is why I guess they are having trouble with locked bootloaders with recovery ramdisks in the dev forum.

I am waiting for the C6806. Here are my plans:

1. Root using vroot (hope it doesn't infect TA with something ;o)

2. Backup TA Partition

3. Unlock

4. Deal with loss of DRM

5. Install whatever ROM/kernel for daily usage

6. (maybe make official TWRP)

7. Get official updates by restoring TA partition, stock kernel if necessary

or...

1. Root using vroot

2. Backup TA Paritition

3. Stick with stock kernel

4. Help with getting locked 2nd ramdisk working with stock init

5. Is the stock ROM awesome enough? (Not sure since we don't have 4.3 :( )

Also hoping info comes out about ATT bootloader soon on Note 3.

LTE phone is out by 9/25 I am thinking with US warranty support. (C6806)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Thanks for your thoughts biff...

I was also going to wait for the LTE version, however only two cities have it in my country, and I rarely travel to them, and the added price made be think again...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
As title states. i recently broke the screen on my galaxy s 2 and i cant access the internal storage.

first of all the phone has the latest cwm recovery and latest nightly. when i connect the phone to the computer i cant access the sd card or the internal storage because its password protected and opens via the media device transfer. so i heard u had to do it via adb in the recovery/

i have tried this method https://plus.google.com/112476065271141473049/posts/BDghkbfpHEp

but it says that adb is unable to connect for backup. i do have the latest ADB as well.

i also tried manually pulling from adb with these " adb pull /sdcard/ C:\sdcard-backup\ " but nothing happens. says that its generating a file list but stays there forever.

my question is how can i go about removing my pictures from this phone with broken screen?

is there a cm nightly that anyone knows of that doesnt use the MTP ?

pretty much what i would like to be able to do is flash new rom and connect to pc and be able to extract my internal storage files, or find an alternate way of removing files.i have also tried a nandroid backup, but that didnt save my internal files, only data.

any help is appreciated.

also tried using this tool but couldnt really figure it out. thanks.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndDiSa:
You could try to use the A.R.T. to do a backup of the UMS partition (/sdcard) and then loop mount the resulting img-file. First you need to be sure that the recovery mode is started and your device is recognized, i.e.

art.sh -devices

should list your device connected to your pc. If this is the case, you can try to do a backup of your sdcard-partition, i.e.

art.sh -backup -i -bd /tmp -tsf yyyy-MM-dd-hh-mm UMS

Be sure to have enough space on the partition / device you are writing your backup file, because it will be have around 12GB.

If all went well, you will find a file named UMS.img which is an image backup of your phones /sdcard partition. Now you can mount loop this file to read / extract the files you want, i.e.

mount -o loop UMS.img /mnt

Now an

ls -l /mnt

should give you a file listing of the root directory of the /sdcard partition.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
I am having trouble setting up ART on windows. I downloaded the cmd script but don't know exactly what to do via cmd.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndDiSa:
The cmd takes the same parameters as the .sh. To get it working, the easiest way is to have the latest android development tools installed and have the tools / platform tools directory within your path. Otherwise you need to define the path to the tools directory (-td parameter). Probably it will help you, too, to have a look at the sources, which are located on Github.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
attached is an image.

im not sure how to define the path but i always manually set it by cd C:\android-sdk\platform-tools

then from here i can use adb. but im still having issues with your script. everytime i run it it just opens up the notepad document
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
environment variable set and still this
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
i went ahead and redownloaded the art.cmd file and ran it from the browser and i got this for the first time and then it automatically closes the cmd screen
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndDiSa:
The first images you attached shows me, that you do not have java within your path (but you have installed as a plugin of your browser, that s the reason why it's working from there). Add the java/bin directory to your path: on the cmd window enter the following:

PATH=%PATH%;<path to java.exe>

(otherwise within the PATH environment variable within the windows system settings). After that the art.cmd should work from the cmd line, too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
i applied the path as showed on screenshot, but i get either an incorrect syntax or is i click the batch file the command prompt window opens but closes rapidly. i managed to capture it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
the first error i get is unable to access jar file. jar file is in same directory as adb, along with the .sh and .cmd
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
this is what i got now
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndDiSa:
Use it without the wrapper, i.e. "java -jar art.jar" is perfect. The wrapper was only ment to easy the call.

The Nullpointer-Exception within the "-info" call could be due to the fact, that you have a SGH-T989 and not a i9100. In that case there is a chance, that the parameters which are to be read do not exist / cannot be read.

The call before, i.e. where you tried to do the backup, has a wrong parameter: "<C:\...>" is not a correct path, you need at least remove the "<" and ">".
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
i cant figure out why i keep getting this error.

what is

/tmp ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndDiSa:
'/tmp' is a directory where you would like to get written the backup file(s), I.e.

java -jar art.jar -backup -i -bd <backup-dir> ...

Probably it would help you to have a look at the sources? You can find them on my GitHub repository.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
Did u take a look at the screenshot.? My backup directory is c:android-sdk.

If u see the argument I changed i get a different error. Why? And yes I did lookbat your sources, with only Unix examples.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndDiSa:
But why did you put /tmp as an additional parameter?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
See I did it with the /tmp and without also. When I did it without it said invaded partition name for UMS. As seen on screenshot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
as seen on this screen shot, doing this,

java -jar art.jar -backup -i -bd C:\android-sdk\ -tsf yyyy-MM-dd-hh-mm

i get nothing. its just returns. what can be wrong.

if i add UMS to the end, it says that unknown partition.

adding UMS based on what u wrote earlier.

art.sh -backup -i -bd /tmp -tsf yyyy-MM-dd-hh-mm UMS
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AndDiSa:
Could you first try to do a

java -jar art.jar -info

Which should give you some detailed information of the device and, if possible, a list of available partitions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bootleg16:
i get a nullpointer exception

what can be causing this?

does it matter if use "cd C:\javalocation" ?

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] drobalqk:
Ok guys, so I was trying to flash the software on my Sprint HTC One with a custom one, while drunk. Needless to say it didn't work. I suspect that chrome f*cked up downloading the rom, because it was only 800mb, and should have been about 1gb. Now, the phone isn't working. When I try to turn it on it shows the htc logo and then boots up in fastboot. Fastboot still receives cmd commands, but I still havent found a way to flash an RUU on it. Tryed with twrp as a recovery- cant mount to computer. Tryed sending the file to phone through cmd- some error about not working radio came through. I'm cutting corners explayning all the methods I tryed to make it work, but there were a lot of them and I dont remember all. I have flashed the boot and the recovery back to the stock ones, bootloader IS unlocked. Phone vertion (as shown in the bootloader screen):

***TAMPERED***

***UNLOCKED***

My question is how do I return it to stock condition (or unlocked to all networks if possible)? Please, I've been trying to fix it on my own for over a week now, and am getting desperate. If possible please give links to step-by-step tutorials and/or files I'll need. Thank you in advance.

PS.: Also, for some reason my computer does fails to install the HTC MTP device driver. Could it be from that, and if it is- will using a different computer solve the problem (tryed a million times to fix that as well- no luck)?
