[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feddexx69:
Still having the same problem even with the app updates..is anyone experiencing this issue? It all started when upgrading to 4.3..
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Just2Cause:
Try to go to settings → Apps → YouTube then force stop it, clear data, then check if you have any YouTube extension disabled, if u have, then enable it. if you don't have, then click on the 3 dots in the upper right corner and select "Reset app preferences" then restart your phone.

I can't promise that it gets fixed this way, but it might solve it.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macman159:
I have a vzw lg g2 and I know there is a root checker and it will be tripped when I root, I want to know if the root checker is reversible if I flash back to stock using the lg software and wipe and factory reset. Will this reset the root checker status? I do not want a device if something happens with the device hardware wise that is caused by verizon and not me and root and I have to send it in to get it fixed and they find that I have root and it is my fault when indeed it is their fault.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lawlrus:
If you use the method they have on the site to go back to stoxk, it will change the status in phone info from rooted to non rooted. Not sure if they have any other way to test it
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macman159:
Can you shoot me a link?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rodeojones:
I actually just had to do this today. My volume up button stopped working. I've been rooted since four hours after purchase. I returned to stock (very simple, mind you, if you download the correct files and follow the directions carefully) and the status went back to unrooted. Not sure if it would have mattered since it was a hardware issue, and no one actually checked, but I wanted to be safe.

I've never flashed any rom on any of my android devices. I just bought the new Xperia Z from Bell Canada and found out that it is still on 4.1

No updates from the career for more than 6 months.

So I'm thinking of doing this - please help me

use this Rom from XDA http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2336874

Use the flashtool described in this thread and do an update of 4.2 with default settings of the flashtool.

Hopefully it works just like that..if not, i'll download the bell rom (4.1) from xda and do the same with the flashtool to get back to where i'm now

Is this a good idea? i'm not sure loading the 4.2 will do something to the baseband and kernel that will stop me from reflashing it back to 4.1 if things go wrong.

any advise would be appreciated.

[Xperia Z General] Djocker:
Let's hope.... :)
[Xperia Z General] RoberM:
OMG, so they are finally releasing .569 build as final with all the obvious bugs?

Crap!
[Xperia Z General] TheKingOfPain:
Certified build doesn't always mean that it's going to be released.
[Xperia Z General] wright_ac:
No ROM is going to be absolutely perfect, anything is better than nothing in my book.

No one is obliged to go from 4.2.2 to 4.3, can always wait for 4.4.

Wait and see how it pans out, if there's a major issue it'll be patched no doubt.
[Xperia Z General] demonicangell™:
and those bugs also are minor ...just graphic glitch so far .. atleast for me .. the leak is near perfect

stop cribbing
[Xperia Z General] RoberM:
Oh, don't make me laugh... that is why i specified "Obvious bugs" in my post. We all know there are no perfect software, but COME ON, people in the leak thread couldn't believe this firmware to be final because there are obvious and stupid bugs, which are typical in beta versions, but not in fina releases, i was not talking about exploits, hacks or such things, i am talking about where objects overlaps texts, new Sony apps that forcecloses, or obvious things like that, what kind of testing did Sony programmers do?

I have been working on software for more than 12 years, i know what i am talking about, and i would be embarased of myself if i ever release something that makes people think my software cannot be a release version. Also if i put a release date, i try to deliver the best possible, not rush and release a beta just to make people shut up.

And yes, Sony has the obligation to release this, as they compromised themselves and nobody forced them.

Anyway i am not saying this firmware is bad, it is smooth and the bugs are cosmetic or in non mandatory apps, i am just saying it smells like "rushed", and that you are too conformist in a world where being critycal with companies benefits us all.
[Xperia Z General] wright_ac:
At the end of the day, up until the day they push it to carriers they'll be patching it and fixing the obvious problems, software bring up as you know is a nightmare, the "leaked" version was a leaked version, it was never intended as a final firmware. Wait and see what come out the leaked 10.4.B.0.569 will not be the same as released 10.4.B.0.569.
[Xperia Z General] RoberM:
Sorry, but that never happened, everytime they fix or add something, they also change the build number. That is the purpose of those numbers, to identify one firmware from another one. And the fact that is has been certified on PTCRB means they are not touching it anymore and are ready to release.
[Xperia Z General] wright_ac:
Wait and see is all I'm saying.
[Xperia Z General] RoberM:
Well, if they finally release 10.4.B.0.569, it will be exactly the same as the leaked one, that is 100% for sure. But it may happen that they have a newer version ready and they might release it instead of .569. That happened sometimes on other Sony smartphones firmware releases.

Man, flash some generic TFT ;)
[Xperia Z General] xchasa:
What bugs????

Been running this for 48hrs, not one single issue I've noticed.
[Xperia Z General] RoberM:
You have plenty on the leak thread.
[Xperia Z General] xchasa:
I'm strangely finding the leaked version smoother and better than .67, best Wifi reception ever and love the new Ui. Like I said, not one single Fc or issue yet. I'm sure the installer glitch may bother some people visually, but I don't care as long as it works. And it does. Didn't even wipe. Go figure:thumbup:
[Xperia Z General] Jaycel0820:
maybe this 569 has no graphics bug like the early 569 because the early .569 is a prototype well its just IMO
[Xperia Z General] coolrevi:
569 leaked version clearly specified that it's a prototype. So why worry. Official 569 may be just a number which might have fixed the issue.. Let's just wait another week to see :P
[Xperia Z General] beni8978:
I updated to 4.3 with nut's method and the phone booted and some things fc.

The screen was black but the navigation bars were there.

I made a factory reset then and everything was okey,only bugs I detected were the graphic glitch(no big problem) and the white balance resets sometimes(also little problem).

Everything else is perfect people,be comprehensible!

If there weren't any 4.3 you would whine all the time like kids in kindergarten.
[Xperia Z General] dvd777:
Please, enlighten me.. how the f**k can we flash generic TFT... ??? :p
[Xperia Z General] CambaStorm:
Didn't know about white balance bug... also, flashed using flashtools and just have the graphics bug (install bar, screenshot preview and mini app bar). they are bugs common in preview software.

Funtionality: Better than 4.2.2 without bugs related to performance (no micro lags) people says it runs cooler than on 4.2.2, for me it is a little hot because I usually use custom kernel with undervolt.
[Xperia Z General] beni8978:
The white balance bug is that the screen(especially in browser) goes from white to yellow and then back to white.Not a big deal

It runs cooler than 4.2.2 stock and the battery life is longer

Idk what people want better for an update.
[Xperia Z General] CambaStorm:
Interesting... As you said not a big deal for a testing firmware, and yes also see around 4-5 hours of screen on time.

[Xperia Z General] SmallsXD:
lol People would complain about how Sony takes so long to release an update but still complain that they might release 1 relatively quickly but with a few graphic bugs. Yet these persons would praise Custom Rom bring ups with "Wifi drops, GPS bugs, screen wake delays" etc.

See why Sony would take forever to release updates now? OEM's get no breaks when it comes to first release impressions.
[Xperia Z General] xchasa:
No white balance bug here?

Wtf.

"I'm angry, I wish the update was what I exactly wanted, Sony needs to step up, waaa." if any one don't like Sony or the time it takes them to release an update then leave. Simple. Go join the iPhone cattle. Some of you whine so much about little things, it's sad.

Move on or shut up.

I have installed DN3 on my att samsung galaxy note 2 (i317).

As mentioned in the development section posts, WIFI is not working. I selected the N7105 option while flashing.

Now according following thread, I should upgrade to latest bootloader for N7105 device.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47379632&postcount=2789

Is it safe to flash that bootloader on i317? I have not unlocked or done anything with bootloader.

If not, should I use the other option to flash wifi fix to current bootloader?

How can I see the version of the bootloader on my device?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RichMD:
I have the same questions. I have been searching for the same answers

1) Where can I find a post/link with the bootloader for an AT&T Note 2 i317?

2) How can I determine what version of the bootloader I currently have? I assume it is the old one but want to be able to verify after the flash.

3) I did flash a WIFI fix before flashing a SkyNote ROM.

Any answers would be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bbrennan:
I believe flashing the Devil Kernel is the answer your looking for......I would not flash any bootloader that isnt for your device. I havent looked at either thread in a few days but as of 3 or 4 days ago that was the answer, so i would try it again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] parth100parth:
Kernel related questions

Thanks for the reply.

What is the difference between flashing a kernel & flashing a bootloader?

Where can I get that kernel? Is the kernel phone specific or generic?

How do I know the kernel that I have & what will the new kernel change?

Where can I read more about it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DoctorQMM:
You can use a market app to display your device info… I use Quick Systems Info Pro, but I know there are other (free) apps which provide similar device information. See screenshot as an example of identifying current bootloader:

I wouldnt touch your bootloader unless its for your device

Skynote would be the thread I would read when it comes the the Devil Kernel. As there are several different versions of it, but for Ditto note I used 1.9 and all was good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] parth100parth:
Do you have an att note 2 (i317)?

If yes, then I will just flash 1.9 instead of experimenting.

[G2 General] bigpappa:
Right now we only have carrier specific threads for development. While those are needed and appreciated I am finding it extremely difficult to learn or locate carrier specific information on xda. The threads for general, Q&A, accessories, and themes are crossing over each other and its like wading thru a swamp of information. I am personally on sprint and I have found myself ending up in threads that have nothing to do with sprint hoping to find fixes or ideas that dont even apply to my model. Frankly, its very frustrating. I can from the photon, and my wife has the htc one. I have used xda for those models in the past, and still do, and can find informatikn specific to my carrier easily.

Can I use search? Sure I worked in the web search industry for over a decade but that doesnt help if I can choose a specific category (that category in this case being sprint). So searching for info in the lg g2 threads as they are now is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

I know there are other people who must feel the same as I do about this. Id simply like my experience in the lg g2 forums to be as good as it is in other places on xda. I dont know why the g2 forums were set up like this, but frankly its a nightmare content wise. It would also help development further by breaking out info carrier by carrier.

Mods, we need carrier specific forums for the g2. Please add yourself to this post of you feel the same way. Those that dont can start a different thread to leave things the same as they are now. This if for those that feel doing this would improve their g2 experience on xda.
[G2 General] xdafoundingmember:
Blame LG for this fragmentation nightmare. ...never and i mean never had there been so many variants. ...its sickening
[G2 General] Ascertion:
Not really. There's a specific GS3 forum for each variant, and other Samsung devices. XDA probably doesn't realize LG has a decent size customer base that use these forums so they don't give them the attention they deserve.
[G2 General] bigpappa:
Theres fragmentation with every device specific to each carrier to one extent or another. Im not talking about throwing blame for this reason or that reason. However, I do want people to speak up on this so that XDA will address and fix the LG G2 forums. I spent time in the htc one forums for my wifes phone tonight and because its sprint specific I found what I needed in minutes. I cannot do that with the LG side of XDA. Its a mess. I dont know how developers can even follow things enough to help anyone or keep track of things.

This disorganizatikn gives me a new level of respect for them and the craziness they deal with to help the average schmoe like me.
