I can flash many CM10x base rom without mobile signal problem

(by downgrade to 532/257 b4 flash)

But with 2 of unofficial CM11 I lose my mobile signal or

I doing something wrong ?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I think both cm11 builds need a .290 base for the Sony firmware
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ZeroXXoreZ:
Hooray! It's working :) But now I've lost root access again...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] stretchwookie:
i would like to confirm that download option 3 worked perfectly for me. there are a couple difference between bigxie's situation and mine. But i assumed since the principles were the same that id should work anyway

i was on pac rom 4.3, not cm10

i only had 1 zero for imei, not 14-15.

i hope this helps others that think it may not work for them.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
New easy method in OP :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Updated again with [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]'s flashable ftf so it is a one step downgrade process now
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] 78triton:
Cant flash and roms other than stock

I lost my imei number so i used flashtool and flashed.290 then rooted and install recovery again but now i can flash any roms i keep getting an error

assert failed: Getprop ( "ro.product.device") = = "c6806" then a few more like that with different models at the ened then says e:erroe executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard what can i do to flash pacman rom or cos. IT will only flash stock roms
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
if you are flashing any of the custom roms (pac/CM/etc) the easiest way is to start with a .290 base the flash the boot.ing that is in the zipfile for the ROM either with flashtool or fastboot

Open archive with 7zip etc

only extract boot.img

copy boot.img to flashtool_dir/firmware/ (passably changing the name to reflect the rom it is from if you are likely to try many)

boot phone into fastboot mode (volume up while connecting to PC)

use flashtool (or quickimg) to flash boot.img via fastboot>select kernel to flash
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] boloksbongas:
Thanks will try this. Lost mine too not too long ago.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] 78triton:
That seems like the hard way to do it is the no way to just flash the zip. Its weird i can flash 4.4 roms but not 4.3 unless they are stock roms

doesnt that seem odd
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NiCk.JaY:
Never mind, got it
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] r351574nc3:
Can't get to Flashmode

I've been trying to use flashtool to flash the 290 ftf, but I can't. All I can do is flash the system.sin and userdata.sin in fastboot mode. I can't get to flashmode. When I plugin my usb cord and hold the Volume Down button, the LED just flashes from green to red and then turns off. The Flashtool acts like it got into flashmode, but then halts. It never gets passed 0%. It looks like I can't get into flashmode. I've tried everything. Any ideas?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Yes the LED out in flash mode.

Can you post the output from flashtool when trying yo flash the ftf. Have you tried another ftf?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] alberto888zz:
Still 0s IMEI after this guide and cm10.2-togari :confused:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Did you try the [NUT] way in the OP?

Does the IMEI return when on a stock 4.3 or 4.4 sony firmware?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] alberto888zz:
[NUT] not yet! It 's the second very long post?

Yes with 4.3 or 4.4.2 stock i have IMEI, and also with cm11-nightly!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
[NUT] made the FTF that is in Downgrade path 1 in the first post

It is quick and simple then just flash the newest 4.2 FTF if you want to use CM 10.2. If you are happy with CM 11 just stay as you are
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] alberto888zz:
I have flashed back 4.4.2 stock, then C6833_14.1.B.1.532_NUT.ftf and now IMEI it's ok also with cm10.2

Thanks! :victory:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Justin^Tan:
i downgrade using NUT ftf. and i'm in .532 now. i want to root using binary but i cant seem to root it

what method should i pick?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Bin4ry's tool you need to use opt. 0. You could also try [NUT]'s recovery installer as that includes a root tool as well.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Justin^Tan:
oh opt 0? the z1 ones? i read on that thread and i ended up using goroh kun's and the opt 1 haha. ok2. I'll try again later. thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Bagne:
i'm on .575, and i have c6802, can i use this method to downgrade? cz it uses c6833..

thx in advance
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
You could, but method two is not that much harder or longer, and you will be left with the firmware and hardware identity that matches your device.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Bagne:
If so, i assume it is ok to flash the later 6802 firmware (let's say. 757) over 6833 firmware mentioned in the method 1?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Yes you can use the 6833 FTF by [NUT] to downgrade, and when you upgrade to to 4.4.2 and use the correct FTF your phone will return to normal
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] polargirl:
What about for C6806? Where can I get the correct FTF for that when I upgrade?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
try http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2453921 ot search. if you cant find a 757 ftf for the c6806 you can use the c6833 one
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] polargirl:

My device C6802 (Indonesia). Fota Updated to Stock *.108. I did not realize to turn to custom rom in this ZU spent couple days. I wish to have Cm-11 (4.4.4) nightly.

what I did > HERE described. Looklike this problem arise since upgrade to 4.3. I loss my IMEI and BASEBAND.

My Solution > Is like on the OP : but bit simpler

1> Flashtool by NUt's *.532

2> Flash boot from cm11-nightly via fastboot.

3> boot into CWM > flash CM11-nifghtly (and gapps) via CWM

4> reboot and just skip skip skip > on set up.

5> Download any *.136 (I found stripped so easier for me).

6> Flash via flashtool with this *.136 WITHOUT : Kernel, System, Data

7> Reboot > IMEI and BASEBAND Available

Is there any way to flash a rom without using safestrap. I'm trying to use the least amount of storage space as possible. Thanks for your help.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tml478:
I use safestrap but I flash over the stock slot. This is not recommended by some but you get all of your storage space. There are many tutorials on how to do it safely. I am reckless now though and just wipe and flash right over :). Ive never had an issue. Make sure you have a backup of your stock rom just in case. Worst case scenario you could Odin back to stock so there is really no harm in doing it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harleydroid:
I also use my stock slot for my daily driver rom with zero issues. I have my stock rom backed up.

Then I use slot one for testing roms to which I keep apps at a minimal.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Redjax:
OP, I'm reading some of the replies here, and I just wanted to give you my input.

The Note 3 has a lot of internal storage, and if you have an SD Card, there's really no reason to be worried about space. If you ARE worried, but still want to flash ROMs, I would recommend buying a 64GB SD Card. That's what I did, and now I literally have no concerns about space, even though I save a lot of playlists for offline listening and store multiple ROMs on my SD Card.

If you don't want to partition your phone for 2 ROMs, just make a backup of your Stock ROM in SafeStrap (make SURE you copy the backup somewhere else, like your Drive account, in case something happens), and for added security, you could also download the Kies 3 app and use it to backup your phone that way as well. Then, just flash a ROM over your Stock partition, and it won't use much, if any, more space than your Stock ROM.

I don't know if that's the kind of answer you're looking for, but SafeStrap itself is a very, very small app, and putting the recovery on your phone doesn't take up storage space in itself; it's the backups that take up space, and if you move those to your SD card or to some cloud storage account, you don't even have to think about it.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henkkaize:
I have a silly question: Can I get the vibrator feel from Nexus 5 to my Galaxy S3? I had my hands on Nexus 5 a few days ago and I fell in love with it's vibrator... :laugh: Nexus 5 has longer and softer vibration.

My i9300 is rooted and it's running SuperNexus 4.0 (Android 4.4.2). And my kernel is the latest CM kernel.

So, I don't have any settings for vibrator on my phone and I couldn't find anything from google search or the Play Store...

I know that other ROMs have this feature I'm looking for, but I really really want to stick with SuperNexus...

Is there any kind of tweak or mod or flashable zip for my needs?

And no, buying a Nexus 5 isn't an option. ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
you could try a custom kernel. I think all the common kernels are able to change the vibration intensity so you could reduce it and maybe vibration will be "soft"

but I don't know a tweak which is able to change how long the vibration is.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henkkaize:
I've been looking for custom kernels but none of them seem to be compatible with Android 4.4.2 and i9300.

If you know any, would you please give me a link? Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
then you haven't searched very thorougly i think ;)

many kernels have two or more versions, so they are compatible with older and newer samsung and aosp roms

it is always written in the thread title which roms are supported. in your case they are tagged with "[Kernel]" and "[CM11]" or "[4.4]"

and I'm sure they are compatible because I also use the combination 4.4.2 and custom kernel
[Nook Touch General] pman1891:
I can't find instructions on how to side load apps from OS X to my Nook Simple Touch. I rooted it using these instructions. I also installed NTGAppsAttack but it took me a while before I could log into Google and get it working. Now that it's working it doesn't seem to do much since I can't search the Google Market (probably because I can't side load apps).

First, I'm trying to install the Kindle App that I got from here. I downloaded the Android tools, but when I try to run ADB, it seems that the device isn't connected:

$ ./adb install ~/Downloads/Kindle_3.3.1.1.apk

error: device not found

- waiting for device -

I thought maybe I could load the .apk file in the Finder. There isn't enough room for me to load it onto the NookManager partition (only 8 MB free) so I put it in the My Files/Documents folder of the NOOK partition. However I can't seem to find that location using the ReLaunch app. It won't let me out of the sdcard directory.

I also tried launching ADB Konnect on the device and it tells me "Root Access Denied!"

Is it possible to install apps via SSH? I can't figure out how to get SSH running.

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
No idea about Macs, but for USB you will have to modify ~/.android/adb_usb.ini

Nook is not a "known" Android.

0x2080

If your root uses ADB over WiFi that would work too.
[General Questions and Answers] Adrianuk:
I can't download any roms via ofp 1.1.6 because the download folder settings are wrong. If I try to set the folder it says "folder don't exist", nor can I create a folder either.

When I try to download a rom the status says cancelled straightaway.

This happened after I went from omega rom v51 to aokp v13 but I did do a full wipe etc.

Uninstalling /reinstalling ofp doesn't solve it. Nor does clearing ofp cache or temp files.

Any suggestions gratefully received!

I'm connected to H when I do not use any internet. However if I start using internet (such as opening facebook) nothing will happen for about 5 second or so until H turns into H+ then internet is back on.

And almost as soon as the page is loaded, my signal goes back to H which means I would have to wait another 5 sec or more to load a new thing.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Quentin2:
Hi.

I own a TF700T and seems to have bricked it. Last status was: I had the latest stock ROM with root running and wanted to get a CM11 based 4.4.2 image from here. I downloaded it and used rom manager to get it installed. But the install script failed at some point and I thought the recovery might be outdated. So I used ROM Manager to update recovery... I tried CWM and TWRP option. Finally I booted up into recovery trying again to install those damn rom - I used the option to wipe all data / settings from the main menu and tried again to install the ROM which again failed (I do not remember the error message clearly). I gave up. I used the "reboot" option.

Now:

- Powering up gets me into the screen with the ASUS logo (left upper corner says "the device is unlocked"). Here it is stuck forever.

- Power + Vol-Down is same as just Power - I do not get into flashboot with those 3 small icons... I just get the ASUS logo and nothing else happens. Reset hole does not change situation. The device is pretty much "always on" now (till battery is exhausted) as long-press Power turns off and immediately on again

- Only thing that seems to work: Power + Vol-Up ends up in APX mode - my computer recognizes the device via USB at this point

Unfortunately I never did any set up to nvflash.

Do I have any chance to get this thing alive again?

Thanks a lot in advance,

q2.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Unfortunately ROM Manager does not work with the TF700 and you are not the first one to find out the hard way...:(

If you cannot find a way to boot into the bootloader to have fastboot, there's nothing you can do anymore without the NVflash blobs.

Did you try holding Vol - and then pressing the reset button in that little pinhole on the side of the tablet?

If you have ADB drivers installed on your PC you could try if you can establish an ADB connection at any point. If you did, you could issue the command: "adb reboot bootloader", which would enable you to flash a recovery and/or bootloader. This probably won't work since you need to be in the recovery or have Android booted for ADB to work, but worth a try anyway...

Admittedly these are very thin straws - but what have you got to loose?

Also: Just a few days ago a user here was stuck on a bootloop to recovery and couldn't get out of it. He left it alone overnight and all the sudden the bootloop sorted itself out... I have no explanation for it and it is unlikely to happen in your case, but you never know...

Good luck!
