[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Testicopolicious:
Good evening, as the title states I simply wanted to ask if anyone on here is aware of any mod for KitKat(4.4) that will allow me to have my carrier name on the left side of my status bar. Personally I think that's a really attractive feature now that KitKat has white icons and a white clock, it just looks nice. Is anyone aware of an Xposed module or flash file that will work on my ROM which is CodeNameAndroid a stock based rom?

If possible I wouldn't mind finding a guide that will work on my ROM so I could just add the feature in myself.

First, sorry for my poor english. I am Brazilian ...

I searched the forum but have not found a way to relock the bootloader without the TA backup. And the topics I found the link was already broken.

Would anyone answer me?

The concern is that the update came, but I can not update. And come to think that maybe JB version 4.3.
[Sony Xperia L] Redzo:
You can't. There is your answer. TA backup is a must in order to get DRM keys back. Without them even if you can lock the bootloader only thing you will acomplish is the fact that you will not be able to flash ROMs or kernels on it.
[Sony Xperia L] Joel16:
Hey mate, you should have researched a bit more before unlocking your bootloader cause it's simply not possible to relock it without a TA backup.

And also the 'update' isn't JB 4.3 xD it's still at 4.2

Incase you didn't know, you can still update your firmware even with your bootloader being locked. Just flash an ftf, grab the latest ftf here

And flash your phone via flashtool. Incase ya didn't know how to, refer to this tutorial

Hope that answers it.
[Sony Xperia L] Patrick Pereira:
Hmm, ok! :(

You are right, friend. I really should have researched better before unlocking. But my biggest concern is with the possible updates that can go for the XL.

But at least I can update it according to the standard TFT that are on the forum via Flashtool.

Thank you again! :)

To relock bł withought ta simply use flashtool. Click on blu and there will be relock button...

[Sony Xperia L] Redzo:
Read my post again and then read it slowly yet another time. Speaking of stupid....

No point in relocking since DRM keys are gone without TA backup

. So yes, don't post if you don't have a clue about what the hell you are posting about.
[Sony Xperia L] uremytoy:
... i think u should read it. if he want to he CAN and also if he needs to give the phone to repair then he can do that with locked bl. there is like 90% they will not check if there are drm keys or not... just bcoz DRM keys are gone doesnt mean that he cannot lock bl. so stop spreading dumb answers like that he cannot lock bl and dont say it next time cuz he can always lock bl if he needs to. There is always point in relocking bl eq updating with seus or pcc
[Sony Xperia L] Hnk1:
I think I might be able to get your TA backup and make your phone fully running, however, I need to ask few questions :

Did you unlock your bootloader the official way (via Sony ) or via flashtool ?

Did you update your firmware using your Sony PC Companion ?

If you unlocked your boolater the official way (Sony Way) and Updated the firmeware using Sony PC companion, I guess there is something that could be done! TA tool may still be able to locate your backup in your phone!

I never backed up my TA and I know it was a mistake but I managed to get my phone relocked (updates and everything works from Sony).

I am not sure how this worked but I recently relocked my bootloader by flashing ftf file which I made from Sony Update(and I unlocked it the day I bought which was like months back without back). Lucky for me, it also included TA in the ftf file name as UNKNOWN, DATA, etc

After flashing that, I used flashtool to relock my bootloader and I even managed to make a backup of TA with DRM keys!

I am not sure if that be of help but I explained the procedure if you want to give it a try! Do write me back if it works for you!

Steps :If you Unlocked bootloader the official way (SONY website). It might just work if you didnot even!

Try TA tool for backup TA. If that doesnot work, do this :

Update or repair your firmware using Sony Companion

Make FTF using flashtool from your Sony Companion backup

flash FTF without deselecting any date ( all including TA and UNKNOWN)

Use TA tool to make a backup

Relock bootloader using TA Tool or flashtool (I am not sure if DRM keys will be replaced but I guess I should make your phone running fully)

Good Luck!
[Sony Xperia L] Redzo:
DRM keys will not be there. To lock bootloader is easy, just use flashtool. But without TA backup there is no point since those keys are unique to every single device out there. Without them there is no gain whatsoever in locking bootloader.

---------- Post added at 10:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 AM ----------

Updates will not come WITHOUT DRM keys. Only way is to flash FTF with Flashtool. You are a true pole.
[Sony Xperia L] Hnk1:
Thank you for your contribution but I am afraid I will have to completely disagree with you!

I unlocked my bootloader around the time there wasnot Xperia L forum on the XDA and I am very sure that I DIDNOT backup my TA at all. I was careless and I was working on ROM so I needed it. I did it the official way though!

I relocked my bootloader using flashtool and I did get all the updates from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 (till the lastest one till date using PC companion). And Ironically, I am always on the first update schedule to receive updates in the UK whilst many regions do not have got any update at all.

However, in between I got an update which I couldnot update. I had long forgotten about my unlocked bootloader and thus I was puzzled what was I doing wrong. Then, out of now where I checked for my bootloader status and found it was UNLOCKED. I again relocked it with FLASHTOOL. I updated to latest firmware and unlocked it again.

Then, I thought maybe I should backup my TA. I knew I had lost my DRM keys so I just gave it a try using above method and it WORKED for me as I had been making backups of my FTF all along for my device! My bootloader is locked now and it works perfectly. There isnot any problem that I face apart from proximity bug (which is firmware related)

I am afraid that either you prove me wrong by giving a PROOF of a time where you lost your TA and YOU had to buy a new phone

OR

Donot write something that you are partially sure or you have heard from somewhere!

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Try flashing a stock FTF with full wipe, then try again.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Then I can't think of anything else apart from trying a different USB cable/port or PC, but that probably won't make any difference.

When I unlocked my bootloader it worked straight away with no problems. :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cipri92:
It worked on my XS. Looks like this one is a mystery.

Edit: CLEAN flashed it and tried an other port. Worked. Thanks for the suggestion!

As I remember, flashing an unlocked-BL phone won't relock it, right? I'd like to relock it after gaining root on the .569.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
That's correct.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamalmawa:
Don't forget to backup your TA before you unlock the bootloader. Otherwise you'll loose your DRM keys forever and won't be able to re lock your bootloader ;)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spoinky:
EDIT: Solution at the end of the post!

Hi guys I have my brand new Note 3 here and I've been playing with it for a few hours now. I noticed the Gallery app was very laggy but figured it was indexing the photo's from my old One X.

After I had everything set up the way I wanted to I gave the Gallery another go and it was still very laggy so I figured I might as well try a factory reset (Even though I was just done setting everything up the way I liked it :P)

Once I was back to factory defaults with an empty SD card I took two pictures, and again found the gallery to be laggy, When I went to have a look at the Gallery app's RAM usage I got these results:

http://i.imgur.com/oq0VJzN.jpg

It started at 40mb and worked up to over 450 ending in a crash.

Any known fixes for this?

I don't mind flashing a new ROM but from what I've read the warranty on these Samsung's is easily voided. Perhaps someone can elaborate what's possible without tripping KNOX? My CSC is N9005VFGDMJ1 and the current ROM has some Vodafone apps in it I cannot remove. I'd love to just get a stock unbranded ROM, but can this be done without voiding the warranty? Hopefully that should fix my gallery issue as well.

Looking forward to some more info, thanks in advance!

EDIT: Turns out it was Plex Media Server. I disabled DLNA, rebooted Plex and the phone and the issue was resolved. Too bad I tripped Knox over this...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alom5:
You are on mj1 which is good. You can root it if you want and still not worry about Knox using the root de LA Vega method.

Or you could just try flashing the stock mj1 firmware from samfirmware or somewhere on the forum and see if that sorts it out
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spoinky:
Thanks for your reply!

I've gone and downloaded the firmware from Samfirmeware and flashed that, sadly the issue is still there.

Anything else I can try besides rooting?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alom5:
Get it replaced mate. not worth the hassle trying to fix it when you can get it replaced
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spoinky:
Yup, got a new one.. same issue. Starting to think it has something to do with the Vodafone crap they put on it.

Thanks so much for reply , I already know about this , but , I mean about region code , for example that of Malaysia is XME , where to find it ?

Nothing on note box or serial sticker ?

How to tell it's for sure from this region or another ?

Have a clue ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] vndnguyen:
*#1234# doesnt help.

This app should help: Phone INFO
[Galaxy Note 3 General] joseph74:
Yes , it helped , thanks so so much .
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pete4k:
.*#1234# doesn't work on every phone.

You can find the info by going to internal memory/system/csc and look for sales_code file. Any text editor should be able to read it.

ES File Explorer will let you access restricted system files, without root.

Of course this being a file could be changed with custom ROM's etc.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] vndnguyen:
NO, the region code is hard-coded in the phone's hardware and cannot be change with the custom rom.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] vndnguyen:
Try this new app:

Phone INFO: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo

this app will show the region code as well as many other info.

was also thinking about doing this. Tmo only gives $106 for the Sprint Note 2 trade in. They are going for $250+ on swappa.com. That's a $150+ dollar loss.

I was thinking of getting an old Sprint dumb phone then selling my Note 2 on swappa, then giving Tmo the old trash phone. Or if someone had an old sprint phone laying around, they could ugive that to Tmo, and sell their newer phone online.

could someone with skills make a cwm/twrp flashable zip of this kernel?

that would make things much easier.. as we could flash leaked 4.3 and then kernel+recovery immediately later, so a pc to use fastboot/flashtool wouldn't be needed..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] DaRk-L0rD:
Here is a flashable zip for the kernel created by sj8023ld.Could someone try it please and report?

Take a backup first and clean cache and dalvik cache. In case your phone is stuck on Sony's logo, just keep pressed the Power button and the Volume+. Should vibrate 3-4 times. After that restart the phone.

In this kernel the version of the cwm integrated is the 6.0.4.4.

I put it on the charger at 10 am and by the time I go to school its at 60 or 70 percent everyday,even when it's on airplane mode. Is there a way I can fix that? I tried wiping my battery stats and I also got Battery Doctor but that doesn't help either... So can someone help me with this issue?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lalec:
I still use the stock charger and cable that came with the phone and my phone charges at approximately 1% per minute (or even a little higher) when it is on the charger. If yours doesn't charge that fast try another cable (borrow one if you have to or go to the T-Mobile store and ask them to use one of their cables to test it for you). Good news is that even if your battery has gone bad you have a phone for which the battery is easily replaceable.

I have figured it out. I uninstalled a few programs that wouldn't let my battery charge completely. I noticed there were three applications running while my phone was on and those thee programs were running all the time without me knowing.
