[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Rudegar:
you dont need to mess with nbf files to cook an extented rom

you can just use the tool to unhide and unlock the extented rom from the xda and remove the cab files you dont want and

add the ones you want and change the config.txt file to include the new stuff and exclude the stuff you removed

then you just lock and hide the rom and hardreset

and the rest if history :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Olipro:
I know, but someone else wants a custom ROM, and they're too far away for me to get hold of their PDA to do it that way.

all I need to know now is what .CAB files I need to include to have everything functioning, then I'll bung on extras
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Olipro:
I guess this is a trial and error jobby then.

now something I've wondered that should be simple to answer;

when flashing on an ExtROM, is it possible to flash ONLY the ExtROM, or is it mandatory to flash the OS and radio as well, on pain of trashing the PDA and reducing it to only the bootloader.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Olipro:
well, through trial and error I've got it all sorted, thanks to everyone for their help... oh, wait, I didn't get any help, but many thanks to Rudegar.

Sure, you don't owe me anything, but if a forum's been setup for the purpose of giving help, it sure would have been nice to have received some rather than just getting ignored because I haven't made enough posts yet to join whatever religious PDA sect you happen to run exclusively to help eachother.

rant over, I've made my point, perhaps something positive can come of it?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] imablackhat:
Just yesterday I created my first "EXTENDED ROM" and installed it by myself for my friends XDA II, all you need is EDIT2003 program thats on the wiki somewhere. Then you can open the ms_.nbf, and edit the splash images and the files it will install on the hard reset, then just install it to the phone using the rom upgrade procedure but put the extended rom in and delete the nk.nbf and the radio_.nbf tah dah!

my Sony xperia z ultra goes berserk and haywire quite often........I guess the software is quite unstable ... Sometimes after opening the home page the phone strangely starts operating on its own.. The pages gets changing, sometimes the contacts gets clicked, phone calls get activated...once my phone was lying ideal and after i got a missed phone the phone automaticaly started went on a dial mode dialing the phone number from my call logs

Today suddenly the wifi got activated, the home page got rotating and kept changing....I mean the phone is lying in front of me and i am not even touching the phone and everything is happening on its own the phone going berserk......

Help .. has anybody else going through this same problem........

Today while i was browsing the twitter ...suddenly my twitter went overactive ...automatically getting clicked on send tweet tab and sending blank tweets....

Godd..........is it a ghostttttttttttt.... i am lost and pulling my hair.. never seen a phone behave like this in my 20 years of having a moble phone with me...

Note: If you initiate this process, you will lose all the data stored in your phone’s memory. All settings within the apps will be lost. You will only retain the data on your card; like your music, photos and videos.

1. From your Home screen, select ‘Apps’

2. Select ‘Settings’

3. Tap ‘Backup & Reset’

4. Now, hit ‘Factory Data Reset’

5. Tap ‘Reset Phone’

6. Then hit ‘Erase Everything’

Once this process is completed, your Sony Xperia Z Ultra will reboot itself. That’s it, most smartphones abnormities are solved by simply performing a hard rest.

-Latest is 14.1.B.1.526. (if your is lower, update it)

-Download Sony update service

-Follow instruction.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] djmaxi:
Even with the latest firm the phone its far away from the stability in the 475 firm. In my case it must be with the backlight optimization on if not acts funny (not only for the booting...)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
Dirty screen? have it if i touch my screen with water on my hands or flour. It stick to the protection and do like if I was touching the screen again and again until I clean it ^^
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ERICTHK:
If I have to pick which Z Ultra C6802 firmware is the most stable, I will definitely go for the .475 firmware, without any doubt.

In all honesty, with the latest firmware updates, it feels more like a downgrade to me. With Optimised backlight always on, the colors of the display looks dull & faded.

If you untick Optimised backlight & restart your phone, then it will go haywire to the point that you wish you've never purchase it in the first place.

Sony has taken a step forward & 2 steps back with their latest firmware updates - Tell me What's the point of rolling out enhancements & new updates, at the expense of firmware stability?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] saturdays:
There must be dirt or water in the screen due to sweaty hands on you r screen causing this. I had the same pribelm. Lock the phone and wipe the screen with a neat cloth or paper. It will be gone.

unstable xperia z ultra software

Tried everything damn thing you all guys asked me do.. even resetting it twice... nothing seems to work...... finally called the sony service center guys... well they admitted its a software issue and needs to be updated and quite strangely its a an update which they claim can be done only in the serivce center and not in my home thru pc companion nor over the air thru from my mobile....

Its sound quite strange to me and hearing for the first time about a software update which sony service center provides exclusively provides and which is no available to the end user..

Anyways i am quite exacerbated by the whole thing and finally decided to go back to my note 2 which i have still retained..

Sorry Xperia guys ...do u have think i have made a mistake by changing over to z ultra from note 2 .. or its a just a one of thing.... which should get settled by this sony service center upgrade...

sending it tomorrow, will keep you guys posted.........if it doesnt work even after this i guess i need to pop of my xperia :(

My guess is that they simply reflash the ROM. There is a new update out today BTW. Have you tried it?

xperia z ultra updated to firmware ending 532

my mobile just got returned from service center with the new firmware installed.... now to see if the bugs have dissappeared..

never imagined sony can release just a major high end phone with so much of bugs in it.:eek:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] calinormy:
This is your bad luck. I never had any problems with Zu, now I,m on third firmware, I have changed the country code, rooted etc. And never had any problems with the phone. Maybe your problem is deeper than o simple firmware install, that is why they asked to send the phone to service. I guess it's just bad luck
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jutley:
I don't get it why has uk lte 4g sony ultra not received a single update?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Because it's already perfect.

Nah, i don't know. Maybe the updates are location based, i.e the models that got sold in Asia have some problems, and Sony is trying to fix them, and the "western" versions are from a newer batch and don't have these problems. Maybe Sony noticed something funky from the first batch, but then it was too late, so they went like "**** **** ****! Execute them updates!", and meanwhile in peaceful Europe - nothing. We got the good ones.

This is of course completely wrong and i have no idea what i'm talking about, but it could be. Could. But i doubt it. Yes. I doubt it. I'll stop now. Soon. OK, now.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D6E:
XDA-

I could really use your help. Here are the details:

Bootloader unlocked/tampered

Hboot 1.54

S-ON

TMO US CID (TMOB010 - which I guess is Google Edition? This is supposed to be the TMO version)

SD card won't mount in CWM

Can't sideload

OS 3.06.1700.10

What is going on? I'm getting really frustrated. Flashed the latest RUU to try and go back to stock. Hboot went from 1.44 to 1.54. Made things worse. I also get a non-root message from CWM when I try to reboot? Is my phone corrupted? Any hope for getting this fixed?

TIA,

D6E

P.S. How do I file a warranty claim with HTC?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwjdd44:
what RUU did you flash?? Is your phone a Google Edition or just one from T-Mobile??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D6E:
I don't recall the RUU. Latest edition which I think might have been from EU (makes no sense). My phone is TMO branded. For some reason when I tried to go back to stock the TMO RUU.exe wouldn't work. I did relock as recommended. As soon as I used the GE version of the RUU it flashed successfully. I have no idea how that switch happened.

Did I flash the wrong RUU? Why all the CWM errors all of a sudden? Corrupt memory perhaps?

EDIT: I think I flashed a custom ATT RUU or a custom Nandroid. Is that possible?

Hi, I'm practically new to this, last week was the first time I flashed a custom rom on my phone, CM 10.1.3 RC2, and now I'm just curious about Kernel, first of all I'm not realy sure what is it, should I change it or something to make my phone run smoother? Can you recommend me one then?

I know those questions may have been stupid for you guys but thanks anyway
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Omario-242:
You should probably read an FAQ for Android to understand what a Kernel is and what it does.

For now just stay with the standard CM kernel and read about what you can do with your new custom ROM.

And do nandroid backups (if you don't know what that means, search and read).

I know that those kind of answers are not likely those you want to get, but you will learn so much more if you read everything you can find.

I rarely post any questions here because I read everything and try to sort things out for myself :)

Not running this at the moment but look in settings ->call settings->voicemail service. That's where it is in cyanmobile. If its there change it to Google voice.

[EVO 4G Android Development] souleman:
I wasn't saying it wasn't built in. Though I thought with CM7, the "built in" simply showed a text saying you got a new voicemail and a number to call (the old 9016 problem). Though I haven't ever tested it because I have used Google Voice for a few years.

My point was that there isn't a dedicated apk for it. So if he was looking to delete the apk from /system, or trying to freeze it using whatever app, that it was going to be a long search, because there isn't one.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jlmancuso:
If I remember correctly should be able to remove the boot.IMG install from the install script then flash boot.img after flashing the ROM and it should work.

As I said if memory serves me correctly the issue lies in your partition sizes. Your boot partition is too small for the image and that will cause a status 7 error. Some users had the same issue with a few of the older releases of cyanmobile. I had to use a smaller boot.img file than everything went good for everyone.

If you need more help just ask and I will try to walk you through it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] souleman:
It's the assert line. You have 7zip and a notepad program on your pc?

go to META-INF/com/google/android. drag the file updater-script to your desktop.

Open it with notepad

The first line is probably something like assert(getprop(... etc etc);

Delete that line, all the way to the semicolon (;) So the file should start with the package_extract line.

Save the file.

Drag it back into META-INF/com/google/android

Then toss it on phone and install as normal.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
If anyone having the status 7 issue on this rom can verify this works, let me know ill put out an update, i can not duplicate the issue on my end, my two evo's flashed without issue....
[EVO 4G Android Development] souleman:
I got the status 7 error.. The actual error is:

Assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img"."boot")
E: Error in /sdcard/JBL_Sprint_v1.2.zip(Status 7)

But that made me realize that the problem isn't that first line (that is the normal fix for the status 7 error). (I'm using the Sprint package FYI). The boot.img says that it is over 3M, but compressed to 1.7. That seems really big to me. I deleted that first assert line anyway (thinking that was the error), and then pulled the boot image out of Jellybread (since I had it in the same directory already), and now it is working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] biga1:
I just tried the first fix in deleting the assert line and I was only able to reboot into bootloader. I tried flashing the boot.img seperately in fastboot and got image update error. I will try your second fix to switch out boot.img from Jellybread. I got the rom on my pc. thanks for the help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jlmancuso:
As I stated earlier different hboots have different partition sizes. Swapping out the boot.img or removing the lines out of the script and flashing a kernel will fix the error:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] biga1:
well I must have a funky hboot 6.16.1002 cause still booting back into bootloader after swapping boot.img and editing updater script. :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] jlmancuso:
Remove the boot.img part of the script. Should be at the end of the script. Then flash Rom and then kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] biga1:
I'm in!! I extracted the Sprint version and swapped out the boot.img, re-zipped and flashed. I did not have to edit the updater script. I am going to try removing the boot.img part of the script as per mancuso and flash just to satisfy my ocd. Thanks to everyone who helped out. Thanks Shag for keeping the OG going.:good:
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
