[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kopsy:
Hi, I need help. I'm living in China and had no idea that phones bought from here have different firmware compared to Europe. So I bought Z1, but it's completely useless for me without maps, Sony Play etc.

I'm total disaster when it comes to IT issues, but after reading several threads in this forum, I can understand there might be a solution for my problem. So I would appreciate a lot if someone could give me step by step guide.

My out-of-box Z1 spec is following:

Model L39h

Firmware 14.1.G.2.257

Or maybe somebody can recommend specialist in Shanghai who can help me with my problem?

Thanks in advance!

Are you crazy? It all comes with maps and play store. Just go to play store and download, or flash new firmwares if you want. Read the guide
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sean473:
You can go and flash the C6902 firmware from the thread with all the mega links in this forum. I suggest you flash the global LTE firmware..
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maomao891007:
Global LTE are for C6903, not C6902/L39. For a step by step, just use the search, key word is "Flashtool".

BTW I think this post is in the wrong section.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxboy:
He is not crazy, at least Xperia sold in China has Google framework service removed by default, and it is a pain in a## to get it back.

The best way is to figure out the model of your phone. Dial *#*#7378423#*#* in phone pad, click service info then model info.

Then you need to download corresponding firmware ex. C6903 and flash it with flashtool.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ndl318:

what is the different between global lte and commerical journalist and generic firmware? I think we need to clarify here so he knows which firmware to flash.

I am asking for him since everyone does not like to answer me, but for him only

Hello. I had problem with my Mda Compact II T-Mobile UK. After I input Pin ti told that: Data Crashed conntact Your Service. I went to imei-check.co.uk and payed 20 GBP and in 5 minutes my Mda Works as a new one. Its the best way to solve this problem and problem with simlock too. Best regards !!!
[MDA Compact II General] hanmin:
A lot of people have unlocked their Charmer with out any problem. And there are at least two (including myself) who has flashed the Charmer ROM as well. Good if you can list out your specification and procedure that you have used that messed up your Charmer.

Usually, when you have the error message "Data Crashed conntact Your Service Provider", it means that the IMEI area has been messed up. And, the only solution to this problem seem to be to go to the imei-check.co.uk

Hey guys.

I have just got a Tmobile MDA Compact 2.

I cannot unlock it though.

I have tried V0.1 and V0.2b.

When my simcard (O2) is in the phone, it just asks you to enter the unlock code, and won't let you access any menus.

So I remove the SIM, install the EnableRapi.cab and then insert the Sim card. And click lokiwiz.bat on the PC whilst Activesync is running, I select U (have tried C aswell on V0.2b) and it doesn't show any errors, the phone resets, but the lock is still present.

Does anyone have any ideas ???
[MDA Compact II General] vibe1010:
Unlock not working on my Charmer

Hi Guys!

I have followed the instructions carefully und copied the file EnableRapi.cab to my charmer, executed it there, made sure that Charmer is connected via ActiveSync, opened the file lokiwiz.bat on my PC, and waited until Charmer rebooted!

After reboot I inserted my SIM Card and the Result was a window that asked me after typing in my PIN for a Network Code!

I have tried all the Versions on the Unlock page, none worked! I have deactivated my AntiVirus Programms and Firewalls!

My Charmer is (still) locked from T-Mobile Austria! All I receive on my PC in the same Folder is an Output File called "Unlocked" which I cannot open with a program on my PC!

Thank you very much in advance for your help as otherwise I have to unlock it via Internet and this would cost me 30 BP!

;-)

lokiwiz probably wont work on AKU2 roms because the OS is more protected. check your versions, Windows Build 14847.2.0.0 is AKU2.

Hi everyone,

Not only am I new to this website but I am also very new to technology ( A bit dim some would say... !) and I want to unlock my MDA Compact II. The problem I am having is I need an "Idiot's guide" rather than the steps put on here. I know this sounds lame but I just don't get it!

I've managed to copy the zip folder onto my desktop. I can synchronise my phone to my pc but anything more is double dutch to me. Would any kind soul out there take the time to give me the instructions in the simplest terms to allow me to unlock my handset which is currently locked to T-Mobile.

I'm sure by using this handset I'll gain a better understanding of the technology but right now I've never felt so thick!

Please help....

[PATCHER][APP] Dual boot any ROM on all Galaxy S4 variants!

So from there, download Dual Boot Switcher app and DualBootUtility zip.

And loki-doki from here.

The unzip whatever ROM you're wanting to dual boot. Go to META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and edit the updater-script manually. The instructions for that are in the post up top I linked to.

Patch the boot.img with the automatic patcher tool, patch-ramdisk.sh. It will create boot_dualboot.img. I just renamed that to boot.img.

Then I put the new boot.img back into the ROM folder.

Create a file named dualboot.sh, and put this in there dualboot.sh.

Put this file in the base of the ROM folder, the same place where the boot.img is.

Zip this all up. the gapps zip I just patched automatically with the patcher app, also in the downloads from the first link.

Instructions for dual booting

Before doing anything, download the Dual Boot Switcher app and the DualBootUtilities.zip from the download section below.

Follow these steps.

Then just flash your ROM.zip, gapps.zip, and loki-doki.zip. Don't wipe anything. Just reboot. It should boot into your second ROM. Install the ROM switcher app again, set the current kernel as the secondary kernel.

If you want to boot back into your primary ROM, just pick it in the ROM switcher app.

Note: When manually patching, you can go off the examples, and it makes it easier, BUT be careful because not all updater-scripts are the same. I copied off of aokp.dualboot.patch and it kept ruining my ROM. I could boot into AOKP all day long, but if I tried to boot into HyperDrive, it'd just stick at the Samsung splash screen. I looked over my patched updater-script and there was another line with:

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");

that I missed. So, just be sure to make a nandroid backup.

I'm including a copy of the AOKP updater-script that I edited. It's for the official 10-18 nightly. I tried to make a patch info file to send to the guy who came up this awesome app/mod, but for some reason I'm just inept in this area. I suck at how-to's as well, but I don't see anyone else trying to explain this for our phone :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Divine_Madcat:
Since you said you had to do some steps, care to share them for users in general? Might save your inbox from getting slammed. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jova33:
Well I had to remove/add a few lines to the updater script, which I kept messing up because I seem to get deslycix when reading code at 2 am.

Then the boot.img needs to be patched, but there's a tool for that in the OP of the thread I linked. It will create a file called boot_dualboot.img. I renamed that to just boot.img, and removed the original from the zip.

Then I put dualboot.sh at the base of the ROM zip.

Patched gapps automatically with the patcher tool.

Flashed patched ROM, patched gapps, and loki-doki. Just Google loki-doki, it's the first result.

Patching the boot.img removes loki. Flashing loki-doki will loki the kernel again.

Edit: I'll do up a better How to later. I'm at school right now though.

[HTC Desire X] Delta-flasher:
Hi all,

I recently decided to put a custom ROM on my DX.

I was on stock ROM (of course) with JB 2.20.401.5

To get my new ROM, I did :

- unlock bootloader (hboot 1.25 with windroid tool) --> OK, "unlocked"

- install custom recovery --> OK, TWRP 2.6.3 installed

- full wipe (factory reset in recovery) --> OK

- flash ROM (mySENSEdx+ RC3.0) --> "failed", so I had to uncheck "zip file signature verification" to start install

- install finished

- reboot bootloader --> OK

- flash boot.img with "Install Boot.img.bat" file --> OK

- reboot --> OK

- When phone started, I'm still on stock ROM, with "low internal memory" message (guess it is because of flashing boot.img)

So, question is : what am I doing wrong or forgetting?

P.S. I forgot : I also tried to flash superuser.zip to get root but It failed. Superuser app is installed but I don't have root though
