how to update firmware officially ? if we do update firmware it will unroot and clear user data also format sd card :/ ?
[Xperia Z1 General] gregbradley:
to do it officialy then use pccompamnion,

that will put you back to stock so you will have to root again...

if you are worried about data on your sd card, just back it up first

ALLWAYS BACKUP JUST IN CASE YOU F*** UP
[Xperia Z1 General] xyagnesh.davex:
Why i Cant Just Unplug The SD Card ??

Backing Up 32 GB card is bit slow

is there any Sony's Official PC Suit Like Samsung have kies ?

Which Is sony's official Toll to update Firmware ? can we do it from in Phone Option Sorry For noob Question :P
[Xperia Z1 General] gregbradley:
please be aware of your limitations.

Your sd card is safe,

use pccompanion (If you are inclined) to backup stuff,

ffs, I just read your post again....and face palmed myself again...updating via official methods is nothing special..just do it..use the software that your phone prompted you to install when you first connected it to the pc..its called pccomapnion (google it) but you will be better off SEARCHING and READING about flashtool

normally we expect people to be able to save their own files without hassle...

U can flash C6902 firmware or 6903 or other region :D

Because C6902/C6903 are L39h

C6902 = gsm/wcdma

C6903 = gsm/wcdma/lte :cool:

Dont worry about that,my friend :silly:

I haven't flashed a C6902 ftf yet but I'm gonna try later, TBH I don't think it will screw the phone up but just no LTE option under settings :)

I hope your phone doesn't get screwed up! I don't want a told you so moment when someone's 500 quid phone gets bricked!

14.1.G.1.534_Unbranded

I have T-Mobile branded phone and want to get rid of the logos while starting up. I guess the last one would be the right one? Is that the latest official one or is it beta?

I've uploaded a new firmware Global-LTE 14.1.G.1.534_1277-2880_R4A with Arabic support, feel free to add it to the main page.

PS. Its different from the one you have in the OP. Also, note that the Global LTE link in the OP is the same as the Journalist firmware, so please rename it to avoid confusion

Might want to add the .534 UK unlocked LTE firmware from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2464389
[Xperia Z1 General] Clownzer:
So after flashing a few of the firmwares (stock .534, based on location) I have come to the following conclusion:

1. 4G and LTE on this phone is simply a label, yes that is all it is, and they are equal to each other.

How can I say this? The screenshots below are from my phones system menu and the 4G / LTE signal it displayed. Please note I do get the same signal and speeds whether my phone shows 4G or LTE

Purchased from unlocked-mobiles.com (unbranded UK)

Stock - Displayed 4G

First .534 Flash - Commercial and Journal - Displayed LTE

Second (current) .534 Flash - Unbranded UK - Displays 4G

So there are my results, with each firmware I was able to get 4G or LTE in the same places with the same speeds. All that was different was the LTE/4G label.

Hope this helps someone.
[Xperia Z1 General] vc_stargazer:
hey when there is .534 update, i was prompt an update for info-eye as well.

[Xperia Z1 General] ianford10:
While i am all for having all the FTF files in one place, hell I'm even ok with the fact that you probably make a little money from *******

What I'm not overly happy with is the fact that you are taking the FTF files that users have created then stripping the names of the users that created them, re uploading to mega and no credit whatsoever to the original creator. Its not very hard to create these files but we have taken the time out to flash different firmwares to our devices to receive the updates for different regions, then create, upload and share the FTF files.
[Xperia Z1 General] paullu:
what is different bw 14.1.G.534_UK_Unbranded and 14.1.G.1.534_Central Europe?

I have c6903 can I flash HK one too?
[Xperia Z1 General] ianford10:
The only big difference I've noticed is the UK unbranded has the Sony Entertainment account option under account settings.

You can also flash any flavour ftf that takes your fancy.

[Oppo Find 5] jonlee917:
I am looking to buy find 5 but on the oppo forums I see a ton of negative feedback ranging from connection issues to whatever. What has been your impressions as I really think this phone could be my daily driver over nexsus 4.
[Oppo Find 5] sebbe312:
I wouldn't buy the Oppo Find 5 now. Custom ROMs are limited but tho, we've some really good developers like Maxwen, Anders and Aaronpoweruser, and I believe Entropy also will continue developing for the Oppo find 5 if he comes back.

Haven't really any issues with the mic or connection drops like some of the users have had. Running AOKP now!

But tho, the build quality and screen of this phone is amazing! I prefer the Find 5's screen over my HTC One's, because the Oppo Find 5 doesn't have that "blue hint" over it.

But it's up to you, you won't be disapointed if you choose the Find 5!

Cheers,

Sebastian
[Oppo Find 5] rexrbgh:
I really enjoy owning this phone. I take advantage of the custom roms and I feel like I own a superior nexus with the Find 5. Lovely screen. Great build. Easy rooting/modding methods. Etc
[Oppo Find 5] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
The phone is gorgeous.. after even almost a year old, it's still one of the nicest phone you can get. The stock firmware or software hasn't been the best experience. But I'll tell ya.. Being able to root and ROM without worry of voiding the warranty is super nice. I've been running CM for almost a month now, no issues here.. Camera works great, sound and audio is good.. Battery-meh, but I do fine. The design of this phone, and the display... mouth watering ;)
[Oppo Find 5] Che123:
The look and feel, the hardware specs - they are amazing. The camera takes very good picuters (on stock rom).

But that's it already. The ridiculous batterylife and the lack of a stable working software makes me regretting this purchase. Oppo has good intentions, but they are not able to keep their promises. I wouldn't recommmend the find 5 at the moment
[Oppo Find 5] brakke97:
When the International ColorOS comes out, the Find 5 will be a perfect phone! Since a few months the Find 5 has a Snapdragon 600. I've bought mine from oppostyle.com and mine has a Snapdragon 600.

[LG Optimus 2x] donnelldouglas:
I have been trying to figure out how some of you guys get these amazing battery lives and I'm struggling... :( I have flashed quite a few roms in the past several days (ICS, CM 10.1 , 10.2) and all of them come with the latest kowalski kernel M1 or exp 126.

with kowalski kernel M1 on TheROM build 13:

the battery lasts only 5-6 hours with about 1 hour normal usage and screen on time...

when the battery goes to 0% and phone turns off I plug in the charger and switch on the phone and it starts from numbers like 70% or 60% ! :silly: after the charging is done I leave the charger on for a few hours at 100%, then I unplug the phone and use it normally (nothing heavy, just few minutes facebook and email with some calls and browsing) the most I got is around 5-6 hours with 1 hour screen-on time :crying:

with kowalski kernel M1 norh on TheROM build 13:

same story but here the situation is worse, after about 5 hours with data and wifi mostly off (just manually switched on when I needed to check something), the battery was about 35% and then suddenly it jumped to 0% and phone shut down! I turn it on and it shows 20% and it works for few minutes then again jumps to 0% and shuts down... :crying:

I have done everything I could and followed any advice I could find related to this issue and nothing seems to help. I flashed the roms after factory reset with fully wiping everything including the internal SD, and I have done at least 4 cycles of full discharge and recharge with the phone turned on for calibration but the situation stays the same.

The battery I use is a new OEM from LG and I bought it 2 weeks ago because I thought the old battery was the problem.

I am currently using TheROM build 13

can you please advice what could solve the issue or what am I doing wrong?

I attached the logs I got using SysLog, on both kernels hope it provides some clues.

I'd greatly appreciate if you can help me out.
[LG Optimus 2x] oneearleft:
That is really frustrating, but... KK battery driver is somewhat intelligent and needs at least 3 full cycles of drain and full charge (100% + another hour) to be calibrated. I have good battery performance with Pengus' CM10. It is really worth a try.
[LG Optimus 2x] donnelldouglas:
[MENTION=5071691]oneearleft[/MENTION] Thanks a lot for your reply, I know about the calibration , I have done that every time....

unfortunately I have the battery problem with all of these roms :(

CM10 "Look Ma! No Hands!" Edition

CM10.1 - tonyp - T-Build 05

cm-10.2-20130824

Stock ICS OptiX Rom

TheROM - build 13

apart from the battery life, everything else is working perfectly with TheROM for my needs, I really hope to find a way to fix the problem :(

waiting desperately for KK 3.1 kernel ... hope the battery driver gets a good share of pengus' magic
[LG Optimus 2x] oneearleft:
How old is your battery? After 17 months, I bought a new stock battery. The difference was tremendous.
[LG Optimus 2x] donnelldouglas:
The battery is new OEM from LG, I bought it 2 weeks ago to see if the old battery was the problem...

It seems you are doing everything correctly. Have you tried the app Better Battery Stats to record what is draining battery?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
Locked bootloader still can flash any kernel, even custom. But it wont boot with custom kernel, bootloader check kernel signature against semc hardcoded drm key, if it match then it boot but if its not match then it wont boot. Thats where unlocking bootloader came, to remove the restriction of checking kernel signature. I'm not sure or understand what you're trying to do but unless its high level hacking eg kexec or uboot, it wont work.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] darkmash:
It is unlocked tp unlocked but sim locked.

Loopy tp unlocked a bootloader allowed no,so theres no fastboot, hes made a method of flashing a converted kernel rtf made from custom kernels , im trying to test it on sk17i and then over hdpi and mdpi device , I just need the device partition info to edit loopy r800 build cmd in sintool, or lasers orignal , all I need is the info so I can start testing , its working on play , google bootloader allowed no/no fasboot and have a look at loopys thread it explains it all and then u'll see what im trying mate, but if ya could help edit build cmd if u got info or could pass it to me , id love to give it a go

Hey guys.

Still haven't rooted my phone and still using the ****ty stock 4.1.2.

Today I've tried to change my CSC from Bulgaria to Germany and flash 4.2.2 via OTA, but when i type *#272*(IMEI CODE)# to change the CSC, I'm getting error that says

Read a topic about putting an "," after # but still didn't worked.

Any other solutions how to fix this error?

P.S - I've tried CSC Changer app for Samsung from Playstore but it requires root for our type of firmware.

QUICK QUESTION: Can I flash official 4.2.2 Germany ROM via ODIN without rooting my phone and will this action increase my binary counter? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] GuestK0057:
Yes you can flash german firmware with odin without root. And i think it will not increase your binary counter. But maybe another member knows for sure?

Greedings
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Nekator:
Yes flashing via odin don t increase your binary counter.
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] samersh72:
*#272*IMEI# doesnt work on jellybean.

no need for rooting to flash stock.

any official stuffs flashed with odin will not increase the binary counter.

you may need a factory reset after flashing if the product code didnt change to DBT

Okay I just flashed 4.2.2 Germany (first rom released) with odin but I'm stuck in bootloop ?!

I did everything like it shoud be! What shoud I do now?!

First, make sure you will give all the details like;

Complete details of your problem - i don't know what kind of broken you are saying (broken camera or etc.)

Details of your Phone, Model, Kernels, ROM etc.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
You removed it yourself or did they remove it in the center?

Was cybershot working before it was removed (even if the fron cam didn't work)?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hugoct30:
They remove it in the center because they can't fix my 2nd camera. Now i can used some app: Camera JB+, Procaptune, ... but i can't use stock camera and mod cybershot.

I hope someone can change (mod) the stock camera app to get it to work! Thanks!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
But did cypershot work even the front camera was not working?

The center is a sony center?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hugoct30:
Yes, It's a sony center!

I touch icon camera wait long time, then my phone report : "camera is not available". I think this app stock camera ( or cybershot camera mod) will check all hardware ( camera 1st, 2nd...), if hardware broken, App stock camera will not working!

Now, i can use app camera JB+, Procaptune ... because it's not check all hardware and i can use 1st camera, but if i change camera, The app will stop! I must reboot phone!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
I asked a simple wuestion. Did Cybershot work before you sent it to center?

I looked at the code a little and I think I know what need to be done, but I never done something like this so it may take me some time.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hugoct30:
Yes, cybershot was working before i sent it!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
If they broke cybershot functionality they should fix it
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hugoct30:
No,I dropped the camera phone should not work before, I brought the phone to sony center. They report broken and the front camera can not be replaced and remove it from the phone! So I want to ask now how do I use the Cybershot?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:

[MENTION=4913504]hugoct30[/MENTION]

I have managed to make a camera that does not have front camera option, but you are the only one that can test if it work without a front cam.

You must have root to replace the cam app, do you have root?

If not you can root with DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hugoct30:
Yes, i had root, Install CWM... . What do I do next? How?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Backup SemcCameraUI.apk and SemcCamera3D.apk and copy those attached below ro /system/app, change permissions to 644 (read all, write owner, execute none), reboot, and before you open them go to Settings -> Apps -> All -> Camera and clear data.

I only changed one class in both app to return number of cameras 1 instead 2, lets see if it let you use it.

Camera not working! I have followed your instructions. It's still the same situation! It reported: camera not responding (file attached below)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Maybe it's not the app but some library it use.

Maybe someone more experiance can help.

Thank you very much! :D. you know someone more experiance please contact for me!
