tried your tutorol, but fkashtool does not see phone when connect.

I think I have to buy new one.:crying:
[Sony Xperia ZR] djpeesh:
Pull your battery out. Run the flashtool, click the lightning button and flash in fastboot (the first option) and then select the ftf file for 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 (there's a thread in the development section with the FTF files).

Flash (and leave the boxes as they are ) --> Once it prepares the phone for flashing, it will ask you to to connect the phone in fastboot mode.

DONT TOUCH THE POWER BUTTON

Hold the volume down button while plugging in the cable. It should flash.

Let me know if it worked.
[Sony Xperia ZR] jackman17:
fastboot is the second option in my flashtool menu, which should i choose?

ps and should I leave battery out?
[Sony Xperia ZR] jackman17:
THANK YOU DJpeesh,

you saved my day:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

followed your instructions ( 1e option flashmode with battery still removed ) an successfuly flashed phone.

I think it went wrong when I flashed boot.img file from cmw recovery with fastboot from cl when phone was also still connected throw Flashtool.

I use all linux tools (flashtool, adb, fastboot , doomlord-rooting kit)

ps By your opinion, is it still save to follow intructions on the link in my first post to get my xperia zR on latest firmware and have root access?
[Sony Xperia ZR] djpeesh:
Jackman17. Try updating through Sony update service and then use vroot (can send you thread link later).

I'm running 4.2.2 and I'm rooted.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bolillo:
Is there a battery replacement for these phone or are we stuck with the stock one? I really want to change it to see if the rebooting issue the phone has goes away.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
The rebooting issue is probably a software issue rather than hardware, nevertheless you might be able to pick up a replacement battery on ebay. Replacing the battery is not that hard. There is one philips screw under the sim/sd card flap which you remove and then you prise the back off with a plastic parting tool. When you succeed in doing that, it is pretty simple from there on.

I want my phone to be as fast as possible....Whats the best choice?Maybe froyo is "faster" than gingerbread?Thank you:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sioneng:
How do you mainly use your phone? Is it for gaming, or everyday email, music etc?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxyms:
I'm running the CM 10.1 (Jellybean 4.22) FINAL stable. Its fast - sometimes but often the phone really lags when switch tasks, from say shazam app or whatsapp to phone contacts, and gives a black screen with no response for a while. Its very frustrating. The video also lags when recording and drops many frames. I am wondering also if the phone really is faster on ICS or even gingerbread. Yes its cool to run the latest but really for everyday use we want the phone to be as fast as poss.

Maybe someone can come and confirm this is just a bad config and later roms are ok or the solution is ICS for the OP
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pavlos77:
I mainly use my phone for facebook and internet...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sajmon93:
IMO you should stick with GB mate if you want your phone to be as fast as possible. Gigabread+ is my favourite gb rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] am2013:
Well I'm using CM10.2 nightly. It is definetly faster than ICS. I have two devices for comparison. I would say that it is even faster than GB. If you want to record 720p I would recommend to stay with GB, becaus in CM video recording is worse than in stock. In my config the battery drain with CM10.2 is higher than it was with GB.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lalokio:
Hello,

So I have a Galaxy S2 running Android 4.0.4 and I rooted the phone and started uninstalling some apps... I decided to remove the calendar app since I though it was completely separate from Google Calendar but it turned out that it wasn't and now I can't use Google Calendar. I tried to copy the calendar file from my HTC ONE S phone also running Android 4.0.4 but it didn't work. Not sure how I can recover my calendar.

I believe I need Calender Storage or CalendarProvider.apk because one of the calendar apps I installed said it could not create local calendar. I also coppied that file from my htc to my galaxy /system/app/ directory but I guess it's not the same file because it didn't work.

If you have a Galaxy S2 please send me these two files Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk.

I bought one of these for my Orange SPV M2000. I had just sold my HP Ipaq rz1710 which I thought was good, but when I changed to the SPV M2000 and used this cradle, I could not believe it. The difference in accuracy was amazing. The HP was always slightly off by about 50 yards or so but the SPV M2000 was Spot on. I could not believe the difference. When I reached a bend in the road, the TomTom was spot on. I highly recommend this product to anyone with a PDA. Check it out.

:D :D

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] sunnyd24:
Hello all,

I've had this product for a few weeks now and it works great, BUT its not the most accurate and update speed is a little slower than my previous bluetooth GPS reciever (Socket). Its only a 12 channel and could do with better precision. The problem I face is on roundabouts and closeby junctions. On the roundabouts as it doesn't update very quickly on screen it gets confusing which exit to come off at (specially if you're travelling above 20mph), whereas my previous GPS was brilliant and updates every second.

Another little problem I face from time to time is the car power lead that connects to the cradle doesn't fit properly into the car cigarette lighter socket, and a little knock will stop power to lighter.

Also amplified speaker could be better and positioned on the outside but it works, therefore the internal speaker of the MDA III/M2000/XDA IIs is better as it directs at the driver.

But overall its a great system which incorporates the cradle and GPS.

Hope this helps and hope I haven't been too negative, just an actual insight into the product.

Regards,

Sunny
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Alan H:
I've just bought one of the Thinknavi cradles, but I'm having trouble with getting the PDA to recognise the GPS. Tried all the settings in TT5 "configure gps" but getting a bit frustrated now. What settings have been used and what am I missing? I take it I should use "Other Cable NMEA GPS". I've set 9600 baud, but the next screen "GPS is connected to:" throws me a bit. I can't find any reference to the actual port to use in either the ThinkNavi manual or the PDA manual. I have tried them all, with baud rates from 2400 to 9600, but I'm probably missing something obvious. Any advice appreciated please. Cheers.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] crocodile:
The original link is broken so I don't know what cradle is being refered to. However, if the cradle has an inbuilt GPS using the PDA's serial port, try:

Start > Settings > Connections > Beam > uncheck Receive All Incoming Beams.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Alan H:
Thanks for replying Crocodile, I had forgotten about this thread in fact, but what I had to do was exactly as you suggested.

The baud rate was set to 4800 instead of 9600 as the manual states, and the other settings were "Other cable NMEA GPS" and "Serial cable on COM 1". The first time I powered it up - (in the house and using the mains charger!) it took about 30 seconds to sort itself out and from then on usually less than 10 seconds even after a couple of days out of the cradle. I am very impressed with it. A link to the cradle is here:

With the amount of mileage I do, it's already earned it's keep.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Boy I wonder if this is set in stone or not,what u think ?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] tommyjoesanders:
I believe it. The understanding I got this past update was too shut us up about the issues and bugs. So LG can get the phone ready for 4.3 later this year
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Lols know that I believe ... Damn if they would fix things in a timely manner it wouldn't be so bad...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stevek216:
I'm confused. Does this have any bearing on us Optimus G owners? It just looks like an OS release schedule, without any implications on whether we'll get updates from LG. Either way, cool to see that 4.4 isn't too distant.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Its googles release schedule .. So it gives a pretty good idea when kitkat comes out.... Hopefully their won't be tons of threads about it since everyone can look here and see ... I will update as I learn more ...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Greatness83:
thats also the release date of the Nexus 5, but they are both rumored anyway

also i read new animations and a pull down menu is in stored for Kit Kat as well
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
That would be awesome ... Android needs to start becoming more unified and clean up some of its coding ... But that's just me I'm not Google so who knows lol

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyler2265:
My phone dosent want to update because at one point I was using TB and removed chrome from my phone and installed the app version from play store. Now when I go to update, it reboots into recovery, begins installing, then fails. When I check to see wy its not updating, it gives me a long string of numbers and letters and says .. chrome.apk .. and then it says update aborted.... so I was wondering if anyone knew a way I can fix this because I have a backup of chrome when it was a system app but when I install it, it still does the same thing.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Try rebooting after you're done and see if it did update. A few people have reported that the update said it failed, but when they rebooted the update actually did work. If that fails, then you can just update through RSD.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyler2265:
Yea, I've tried to update it tons of times and it keeps failing because of chrome not being a system apk. I did try the option on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33028928 but, realizing I was on 4.1.2, it failed again and since not using a nexus 7, I'm not sure it will work anyway. I could go with RSD but I was hoping there might be another way to fix it without wiping all the data.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] monkeyman08854:
Hey all,

I have had some minor experience in unlocking and rooting my older android devices, but I was wondering if someone could shed some light on the current state of affairs. I just received a brand new nexus 7 and am trying to decide whether or not to unlock/root it.

I remember back with my Xoom as soon as I unlocked the boot-loader, Hulu stopped working. Is this still true? Are there any other side effects like that?

Thanks for all the help everyone :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Muikkuman:
Nexus is basically made for rooting so no worries.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bananagranola:
Some apps don't run if you're rooted. However, that's usually not for any technical reason; it's just because some app makers write a check for root into their apps and refuse to run if they find root. I don't know if Hulu is like that, but you might want to check if you have any apps that are like that. Alternatively, you can always unroot or use a hide root app to get around the app check.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] DJG0A:
Which Hide root app do you suggest ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bananagranola:
I was going to recommend OTA Rootkeeper, but apparently 4.3's security changes prevent it from working. As far as I can tell, it looks like you can't hide root on 4.3.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] monkeyman08854:
Can anyone confirm whether or not Hulu works with Root?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] RagManX:
I use it a few times a week to watch stuff. Works fine on my rooted N7 with CleanROM and ElementalX kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Class_of_punk26:
I don't see how I get all kind of errors when I try rooting this is it cuz I'm using winxp?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] alicarbovader:
the one and only downside of rooting is you start suffering from ORD (Obsessive ROM-updating Disorder). I've been suffering it for past few months, and it seriously gets to my head sometimes.

Symptoms:

1) You feel like updating your ROM every day a nightly comes out, even if it is without any change. Just because it has a different incremental number.

2) You can't concentrate on studies, tv, movies, GFs, or even on your potty.

3) You dream about a new nightly every night after flashing current nightly.

4) You have titanium backup on your device.

Cure:

1) no cure.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] MikeMurphy:
I can't think of a single app that doesn't work with while rooted. It used to be Google Movies didn't work, but that's no longer the case.

Rooting isn't a big deal. The worst part is that it resets your devices to stock, so backup first.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] alpine101:
Sky Go! doesn't and so far there appears no work around. Unless someone has heard something!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] philosopherssage:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] overthatscreen:
So I've been having this proximity sensor issue where the screen doesn't turn back on during a call. Funny thing is while on a call the *#0*# menu shows the Proximity Sensor is working fine. Air Gestures on the browser while on a call work fine. Only Z Device app and Phone app are having issues with the Proximity Sensor.

I have also noticed that if I press the Home Button to turn screen on, the Prox Sensor doesn't turn the screen off. I have to go to the Home Screen and return to the Call and then the Prox Sensor turns to screen off for me but not back on when I move the phone away.

Called Tmobile and they suggested a Hard Reset. Told them I did already. I actually Odin'd the stock MDL and Triangle Away. Reflashed stock MDL again and still have the issue. It's finicky because sometimes it works fine.

But I do have to say. After Odin'n the MDL a few times, the phone just flies. No lag whatsoever, even without Developer Mode.

So Tmobile said the S4 is on back order for 3 days. Hopefully I'll get a new phone. If not, try again until they give me an HTC One or Xperia Z.

Anyone else have the issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
I had this issue. It was a faulty proximity sensor. I needed a warranty replacement

Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] overthatscreen:
Thats what I figured. I have one coming. Hopefully the backorder means I'll get a new one instead. I wonder I complain about having to wait they would switch me to another phone.
