Phone not booting up

Yesterday I rooted my Xp M dual 4.3 LB with towel root, also applied reboot remount fix. Now when I use Folder mount, just after mounting the folder, it turns off, red light blinks 3 times and it wont turn on. But when I connect it to a charger, I am able to boot the phone. Please help ASAP !! Also Busybox says it is unable to find supersu scripts, but root works with other apps.

HELPPP !

Max video resolution xperia m can play using native player

I have a Xperia M which is my daily driver. I am someone who watches a lot of videos and with good quality. I have plenty of videos in my PC which I am in the process of converting to put them in my Xperia M. Please note the videos I have are of 1280x720 resolution. I need to know the maximum resolution and quality that Xperia M can play using native video app "Movies".

Please dont ask me to you MX Player or any other player. I like to keep it simple. Just one app for one function and stock app being more preferable. So it would be helpful if someone tells me video resolution and other details best suited to this phone. to play without help of external player. More importantly the video should occupy full screen.

The Details I require would be something like this:

Format:

Video Resolution:

Video Codec:

Video Bitrate:

Frame Rate:

Xperia M Password to decrypt storage

Locked BootLoader ?

I originally posted this here, but after reading the rules, I figured out this is the right place. Please excuse me for double-posting, I'll do better next time ;).

Hello there !

I am currently running a rooted Xperia M with a stock Android 4.3.

I would love to try FlexOS, but it seems I need a bootloader, my problem is I supposedly can't unlock the bootloader (I just rechecked the system info menu).

I rooted via towelroot a while back, and I have flashtools installed, just don't know much about it (used it when I initially rooted my phone)

Could someone make a quick tutorial or link me to one that explains how I should get this done ?

As far as I know, I need a custom recovery menu and correct partitioning for android 5.x and then I should be able to flash the new OS onto it. My problem is getting these prerequisites.

Thanks !

[Sony Xperia M] Hackerpunk1:
I have an Xperia M C1905, I was using the phone with stock 4.3 JB, with locked bootloader, rooted with towelroot. The device was working properly, infact it is my secondary device which I only use to take photos as it has some network problem. About a week ago, the battery died, so I left it as I wasn't using it. Then after 3 to 4 days, I plug it to charge, no LED was indicating it was charging, I left it and went away. Then after 2 hours, I came back and notice no LED. Then I did unplug it. After 2 days, I removed the battery and plug it into my universal charger, the battery was charging. But when I put into the phone. Still not powering up. I did try testpoint, does not detect. What should I do?

Thanks in advance!

About USB storage and its limit of storage

I'm using C1904 model for over a year and I must say I'm not disappointed with its performance. As already mentioned, its only demerit is its storage..... :(

I have questions too. Does xperia m support a 32 gb pendrive? Also, what is its usb storage limit? Can I connect hard drives with 1TB or more capacity? Is there any method to make them compatible with the phone?

Answers are needed ASAP.... :D

However in TWRP file manager it shows different folders that are present on internal storage.

Presently my phone is soft bricked and cannot install any ROM. if anyone knows how to partition the storage to install CM12 PLEASE HELP ME FAST.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jager420:
I dont know if its my phone or what but I haven't had any luck with AOSP ROMS on this phone. It seems like there's always some sort of bug that just kills it. I flashed a CM10.2 rom that felt like speed of lightning but was bugging out. I tried ecilpse and some others but all were to buggy for me. I recently tried to flash liquid cause I wanted to run something else other than touchwiz but it ruined my phone and now I cant flash custom ROMS(i have a help thread up..feel free).. Anyone else having bad luck on these AOSP ROMS
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] papadelogan:
Not what you want to hear, but I'm having no issues with flashing new ROMs. I'm only using LiquidSmooth and waiting/hoping for a 'complete' 4.3 version, but again, no problems with flashing to a new ROM. I have been running LS2.9 (4.2.2) for several weeks and on Sunday flashed up to LS2.10 (4.3) but went back to 2.9 because when I mirror my phone on my AppRadio3, it doesn't auto-rotate my screen to landscape, so I have a portrait orientation of my phone on the radio display, which makes it so small as to be unusable.

I don't recall what method I used to root my phone, but I'm using TWRP 2.6.3 to perform a) a clean wipe every time (Factory Reset + System), then b) install the new ROM, and c) a final reboot back in to recovery and flash the latest gapps image. Does it take a little longer to follow this process? Sure, but it's a reliable process that means I don't have issues afterwards to mess with, so the extra time spent on the front end is worth it to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] abe.froman:
I've had moderate success with the AOSP ROMS. Each one seems to have it's own small bugs, but the AOSP ROMs that I've tried didn't have anything that ruined functionality. Been running Dirty Unicorn ROM for the past couple days and it is really solid. Haven't noticed any issues at all with it yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
It's got to be your downloads or install process. Do you check MD5? If no then start. Remember just wipe data for each install. Updater-script in ROM zip wipes system for you. Cache resides in data. Do NOT restore system data using TiBu. Other than that I don't know what else to tell ya bud :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
Haven;t had any trouble with AOSP flashes, but many of the ROMs or maybe most have some bugs. All the so called AOSP ROMs are built off the same base, CM10. None of them support all the hardware and software features that Tocuhwiz supports. I find the custom TW ROMs far superior in features and as good or better in speed as well.

Make sure you are flashing a compatible Kernel when you switch between CM based ROMs and TW based

Really nice app! Can you work a little bit on design?

Thumbs up!
[Android Apps and Games] The "A" Factor:
Looks great!!!

But at times the UI looks a bit off-beat ...

Why don't you go for plain HOLO Style ???

Holo style looks sleek, also it will merge with rest of the Android Framework and this app will look as an integrated part of System!!!

Good Work & Keep Deving !!!
[Android Apps and Games] Gawayne:
+1
[Android Apps and Games] MSgtSimon:
This is really nice dude!

A few recommendations:

Stick to the standard Android UI, that is, Holo.

Mark the SMS as read if the user replies to it.
[Android Apps and Games] n70shan:
Sir, i have tested your app and many things to be mentioned here

Firstly the floating window doesnt show complete message and also doesnt not allow us to scroll message down to read more so how can we reply back without reading complete message.......

secondly the window sticks at upper side of the screen only please make it movable to other screen area if its possible.....and also make it more color full :D

ok now some information for your help......if you have ever checked CM for xperia devices they have created their own messaging app which is installed when we install CM that messaging app is called Mms.apk and this app is the most customisable and full of features messging app created to date in the history of android....in that app their is a option of pop up message (like your's idea) kindly check that you will come to know what i want to say.....you will get alot of things in that...you can even reply without unlocking screen...

BTW nice effort...... :thumbsup:

It works on Samsung software. Infact, most users are using it on the s3 and s4. Please try and let me know if you have issues by posting here or emailing me directly to floatingsms@gmail.com

I have made it so that only the first 160 characters of the text message is shown (There is a 160 character sending limit on most sms applications) but I will work on it to display the entire text.

I am currently working on enabling to be flinged up and down the screen (kinda like Facebook Chat bubbles)! I will take a look at mms.apk

Thanks!

EXACTLY what i was looking for. Handcent and Go are now Bloatwares and Secondly i have a Dual Sim Galaxy S4 mini so these SMS apps are deficient in selecting which sim to use for reply.

[Android Apps and Games] eddy0090:
LIke the concept but it pops up even while you are in the messaging app and receive a message from the contact you are currently viewing.

Anyway to not show pop up if that contact is open?

Thumbs up for the app, the only thing holding me back is your styling. +1 to Holo theme
[Android Apps and Games] zinconnu:
Excellent app! But :

I can't see the entire sms if it is long

It could be better with another theme

The SMS is not marked as read after reply

Works fine on my HTC Desire, Android 4.0.4 (AOKP ROM).
[Android Apps and Games] mutantblack:
What zinconnu said ^

I am using it and so far pretty good. Holo theme or adjustable transparency would be nice. SMS marked as read really should be there.

can i integrate this app with other messaging apps like hangouts or bbm.
[Android Apps and Games] yellowdie:
App looks great, thanks! I like the input that others gave, and I'm glad to see that you responded well to the feedback. I see that the version on Play is v3, but the apk attached to the thread is v2. Can we get the updated apk?

Also, people have mentioned integration, but no one said Google Voice. Is that on your radar to integrate with? Thanks again! :D
[Android Apps and Games] bobfrantic:
Great idea but a resizable window or scrolling of longer text messages would be a definite improvement.
[Android Apps and Games] jimwick:
........ nice app and thk for the work you do here for free .............
[Android Apps and Games] Jaytronics:
Suggestion for a feature. You kjow how there are multi tasking apps that allow you to swipe from a spot on the screen thatvis either designated or picked by the user? I suggest that you add in an option to allow the user to swipe an area of the screen that they designate so that this floating text app can be brought up at will instead of waiting for some one to text us. And offer the ability to chose a person to start a text convorsation with. That would bring this app closer to fully featured. Also maybe ofder the ability to allow Google hangouts to join in the party here. This would be something along the lines of I dont know, awesome!! Even if you do not implement any of these requested features. This is an awesome app. Great job.

It is not a "Smart Phone" It is a phone that is capable of being used by smart people. Also a phone capable of beig used by dumb people. So, as it has alwys been. It is just a phone.
[Android Apps and Games] B1663R:
Nice App

Nice Work really like the idea!

My only suggestion is to allow the floating text area to be dynamic for anything over two lines to be seen at one time without so much scrolling. Might defeat the minimalist approach though.
[Android Apps and Games] davexd97:
Nice app you made , it´s usefull and the holo themes was the only thing missing , only have one suggestion , please add delivery reports, i activated delivery reports on the sms app but when i answer trought the floating text it doesnt send the delivery request even if i have that checked on the sms app.
[Android Apps and Games] carhigh:
please update so it works with google hangouts app
