now friends manuall way for un bricking. + locked boot loader sony live with walkman

hi guys in my previous post I told you about official way of un bricking using sony update utility now its non official way ( manually)

before I start I would like to inform you that, most of the problems arises for any upgradation is in initial stages.

like absence of ABD drivers for sony lww .

some times though you have installed the drivers your phone won't recognise by the computer.

so install sony companion it will install drivers along with your abd drivers.

keep your downloaded drivers file on desktop when computer prompt you to install drivers their will be two options

( |) it will automatically search and install drivers. if it shows no drivers press back button and their will be another option

(||) SELECT FROM SPECIFIC LOCATION.

SELECT it and browse the file LOCATION on the desktop now try to install.

after connection the phone to comp wait few min it will recognise for sure.

Now the tools you require to manually flash firmware are

¤ your dead phone

¤ latest flash tool ( search for flashtool for sony Ericsson)

[flashtool also have drivers give it a try to. LOCATION ( C/FLASHTOOL/DRIVERS) ]

¤ and your firmware (tft) file.

¤ firmware file must be same as your phone's firmware when it got bricked. I mean version must be same.

¤ prepare your phone by ticking unknown source, mtp mode, and usb debug mode.

¤ now place your *tft file in C/FLASHTOOL/FIRMWARE. (make sure it must be empty else it will confuse new users) -

¤ now open installed flash tool connect your phone by holding volume down button.

¤ when your phone get detected by flashtool click flash

¤ it will ask you to flash in flash mode or in fastboot mode, click flash mode.

¤ hold your breath till firmware get installed.

¤ it will re boot

here you go. your phone is alive.

thank you

a bit experience

my phone was bricked when I tried to upgrade it. FROM

gingerbread .62 to ics 4.0.4-

so it happened by my mistake, I removed cable connected to phone in the middle of flashing *tft file.

so make sure cables must be tightly connected at both the ends.

don't repeat what I did.

¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤

# when I failed in many attempts using flashtool, I used sony software update utility.

# sony update utility is all in one solution to update your phone with latest firmware. and its the best tool to repair your phone at any point of break down.

# when I tried to update my phone using sony update utility

my phone get detected it informed me about latest available firmware to install ( in my bricked phone means in my dead phone ) it was wow. . .

like a ray of hope.

§ I eagerly clicked to update.

§ sony update utility started to download firmware.

§ wow . . .

§ after few min prepared it self to install in my phone.

§ wow . . . wow . .

§ with in seconds installation failed . . .

§ guess why . . .?

¤ ¤ because my phone was in .62 gingerbread.

¤ ¤ ¤ in FLASHTOOL I flashed latest ICS FIRMWARE

¤¤ Which was installed partially in my phone.

¤¤¤ and sony update utility tried to instal the same firmware which I was flashed so got aborted.

§ solution.

I used flashtool again

installed old .62 firmware ( which also got installed partially)

then again connected to sony update utility now it installed ICS successfully.

hope it will help you peoples. . .

click thanks if it helped you

thanks for those who helped me:-

now I am posting this using my live with walkman.

cheers . . .

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Stavr0s91i:
Hi guys.Just got my note 3 a few days ago and waiting for my samsung gear.It really pisses me off that the gear does not have bigger internal memory..I`ve been thinking and i will be trying something to fix this problem.

Adding an external sd slot.no soldering on the watch will be involved.The gear can still read usb sticks if you connect them through its special adapter and connect a otg cable.My idea is to add a very slim designed microsd pcb on the botton on the watch or around it and connect the cables with somekind of a magnet to the base.

Then change the mounting points located in vold.fstab from USB to external SD.

So what do you guys think?would this be worth it ?

totally worthless. it will become bulky and fragile. someone better work on bluetooth internet tethering so we can use internet apps on Gear.

hello friends,i have encountered a problem recently

my wt19i works well with all custom roms earlier when I had locked bootloader...i used to flash stock based ics roms or sometimes used to go back to stock gb or ics

but in order to install cm10.2 I unlocked my bootloader....after I could use all roms from cm7 to cm10.2 without any problems of the phone

but recently before going to a long trip I thought of reverting bavk to stock ics .587 but then thevproblem arised

on flashing using flashtool the rom boots and qorks normally but the battery level is always shown full

then I flashed stock gb but in gb everything is fine

then on stock ics I tried changing kernels from stock kernel

1. on flashing kappa kernel the problem of bqttery showing full persisted

2. extended stock kernel hqd the same issue

3. lupus kernel seemed to solve the problem as I flashed lupus the battery level stqrted showing correct levels but the wifi stopped working

so please someone suggest me a solution qs I hqve to go on q trip and would prefer to hqve stock ics insteqd of custom roms

Thanks for the suggestion but this is still not what I am looking for. I store data that is time sensitive. I would not like anybody to have any access to it.The remote wipe would only work if I was aware that the device had been lost/stolen. Due to the off-chance that one of the employees did lose it on a night out and not inform me by the morning the data would still be accessible. The employees travel a lot in China and this has happened to our company in the past so I am not being paranoid.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
The 10.6.2.10 bootloader means you have the 4.2 BL. So you would just reflash the 10.6.2.10 ROM and it will restore your tf300tg to stock and erase any recovery.

Bought my UK unbranded Galaxy S1 on day one of release. Rooted it and installed I9000XXJPH (then the best firmware available) to try fix the notorious GPS issue. It didn't. Also installed a "lag hack" to speed things up. I was left with a slow, crash happy phone and by the time better firmware was available, Busybox was telling me that it mysteriously no longer had root access!

And now I see there are 4.3 firmwares available, making me super jealous. Hell, I'd take the most recent stock over what I have now.

So how do I get root back on a once rooted phone?

Every time I launch Chrome browser (I'm sure I'm not the only one here!) it takes an age to be ready for me to type an address.

Even when the cursor appears in the address bar and the keyboard pops up, it's still not ready to type. When I impatiently start to type something the keyboard confuses presses for long presses, so I get numbers appearing instead of letters etc, a complete mess.

The wait is probably something like 20 -25 seconds, doesn't sound like a lot, but on a modern phone its aaaages! It's a shame, because the instantly-ready aspect is why I choose Chrome for Windows. Not so for the phone.
