Description

Hello everyone

If you usually download APKs from internet, you would normally have to transfer the files to the smartphone and then install them one by one. As it did not seem practical and since I usually try a lot of programs, I have created this script.

InstAPK is a script that automatically installs all APK files from a folder to your Android using ADB or "USB debugging".

· Install all APK files from the chosen folder to your Android

· Creates a Shortcut on the desktop to install directly the files from the chosen folder.

· If there is more than one device connected , it allows you to choose in which we want to install everything.

·	It shows us the name of the program that is being installed, extracting it from inside of the APK, regardless of the file name.

Powershell

InstAPK is a Powershell script. Powershell is basically like a powered MSDOS.

Powershell comes pre-installed in Windows 7, 8 y 8.1. In XP, a manual installation is required:

· XP: Not installed ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968929/es-es )

· Windows 7 : Powershell 2

· Windows 8 : Powershell 3

· Windows 8.1 : Powershell 4

The script works in any version.

Requirements

Enable USB Debugging: Settings / General / Developer Settings / USB debugging. You must have all your Android drivers properly installed.

In order that this and others scripts work,,you need to change the execution restriction from “Remote Signed” default option to “Unrestricted”.

· Open the command line as Administrator (Rigth click, “Run As administrator”).

· Write “Powershell” and press Enter.

· Write “Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted” and press Enter.

· Now you can close the window.

Run from Windows

Unzip the zip file into a folder, press right click on InstAPK and select “Run With Powershell”.

Run from Powershell and parameters

· Open Powershell (Start/Programs/Accessories/Windows Powershell or execute ‘powershell’ in a command line)

· Go to the path where you have saved the script

· Type “./InstAPK.ps1” and press Enter

· The parameters that you can specify are:

o “–folder” : then specify the APK folder. If the folder does not exist, the script asks you if you want it to be created.

o “-english” : To force English language

Good But Slow

This post works well but it is slow. Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Chapiz:
I'm leaving my country in a few hours and I wanna know if I'll be able to buy a sim on the place im going to and use it on my phone without it being locked.

I have a Sony Ericson xpiria x8 using custom ROM android 4.1.1, it's bootloader unlocked and rooted.

So how do I check if it's unlocked without trying to use another sim card? I don't have time to get one

If it's locked, how do I unlock it for free?

I'm sure this has been asked alot but only for it about other phone models, plus the websites that talk about this are all 100% bull**** and even paid for doing a stupid IMEI check
[General Questions and Answers] Chapiz:
Great ****ing forum, it's been like 3 hours and nobody ****ing answered, also since I just made an account I have to ****ing fill the general forum with **** that doesn't belong here, this is a ****ing simple question that no one can ****ing answer or at least give some advice, there's lots and lots of help on **** that its already covered up like installing ROMs and crap which is nothing more than downloading software and following steps but when something new comes up it can't be ****ing answered

Hey guys i'am bored of using my lumia 800 with windows in it. Can some one help me how to change my windows o.s to android.
[Nokia Lumia 800] NazXs:
no... may be you could find some custom rom that looks like android.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] edshawn911:
figured it out...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] izmoothski:
By the way, saw another option for Steps 5-6:

Step-5: Connect your Note N7000 with your PC using a data cable. Once the device is successfully connected, you will see a notification in Odin in the bottom left saying Added!! - if for some reason, you do not see the said notification, try another USB port. Also, check for ID:COM port being depicted by a number in yellow to make sure that you have successfully added your device.

Select the following files in Odin at their respective tabs from extracted XXLT6 firmware folder:

Step-6:

Click the PDA button to select the .tar file extracted earlier.

Click the Phone button, and select file with *modem* in its name (ignore, if this file does not file exist).

Next, click the CSC button, and select file with *csc* in its name (ignore, if this file does not file exist).

Click the PIT button to select the .pit file. (ignore, if this file does not file exist).

Ensure that Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are the only options selected in Odin window. Also ensure to select Re-Partition checkbox only if you are using a .pit file.

Except since I only had the TAR file I ignored the rest so I assumed I was doing it right up to that point. Also, the YELLOW highlight in Odin 3.07, wasn't yellow but kind of light blue.

That was it. All I did. Still, not succesful.

Please help.

Thanks.

Phew! That's a lot to read.. The file you are trying to flash is just a kernel not a whole rom. That's why your phone after the flash has a JB kernel and ICS rom. That's why the phone does not boot. To upgrade to JB, download a stock rom from sammobile.com and flash it using Odin the same way just in PDA of Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] izmoothski:
Sorry about the read. =)

Was thinking I'd rather be complete than have anyone helping need to ask more clarifications to help me. =D

Oh that's why. Thanks for the reply. I will do that.

So I need to get the WHOLE ROM from the site you mentioned. A ROM that is complete, Kernel and all. Actually I thought I did get a complete ROM. Did not realize it was just a Kernel. What would be the best way to determine if a ROM is complete? What is usually the size of the file itself? The one I downloaded was like 8MB so I thought that was pretty big. Kinda looked for awhile for that XXLT6 original JB ROM so didn't stop to think if it was just a Kernel. My bad.

By the way, are the ROMs on Sammobile rooted? Or do I need to root them?

thanks again!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treacherous_hawk:
They are just stock roms, to root again use the philz kernel but for jb this time. Also use the .zip this time instead of tar file, you can flash the zip file from stock recovery itself. You can raed more in philz kernel thread
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] izmoothski:
Got it, thank you Sirs you've all been a very big help. I ran into some issues with TW right after completing the install of 4.1.2. Every darn thing was stopping even acore and TW. Was about to chicken out and go back to my safety ICS ROM when I got to read some stuff about needing to Clear/Reset on Recovery mode after any firmware flashing as well as Clearing the Cache so I did. And voila, it worked. I think I'll rest my worrying brain for now on the root. =P

I'll root it next week. I'll just have fun with it for now. Been up playing around with this for over 24hours now. Having too much fun but already drained.

Thank you again for you help!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juliowong:
same situation here...!!!

hello XDA ppl...

I had ICS 4.0.4 and attempted to use PhilZ-cwm6-XXLTA-ATL-5.15.0.tar.md5.

That took me to the same situation I think... kernel for JB and ICS ROM...

I power on my phone and it gets to a GT-N7000 Note + Yellow Triangle screen and NO MORE!

I can get to PhilZ Recovery Mode or ODIN Download Mode.

That´s all...

I will attempt right now what you told the creator of this thread and update if it helped.

any help is welcome...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juliowong:
FIXED!!!

AWESOME!!!

My bot is back again!!!

Thanks a lot guys...

This thread worked as a charm. :victory:

1. Odin 3.0.X

2. Factory Firmware

3. Flash it as PDA.

4. No yellow triangle.

5. Removed battery and waited 5 seconds.

6. recovery mode.

7. clear data/factory reset.

Done!

---------- Post added at 03:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 AM ----------

Well... finally I am back to ICS.

Now gotta find a safe way to get it to JB.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treacherous_hawk:
Safest way to get to JB with wipe (that is formatting) is to get philz kernel for ICS and then reboot to recovery do factory reset and wipe /system /data /internal storage /cache and then reboot to download mode and flash JB from odin. Else if you dont want to loose data, just boot into download mode and flash JB using odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Yeah!! May be you want to start by not wiping on a stock ICS kernel.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Badspaz910:
I can't post in the Android development section for Temasek cause I am new to xda and I haven't submitted enough posts. I think.

I was on beanstalk and decided to flash Temasek on v27. Was a clean install, factory reset and wipe dalvik and cache. All was good. Battery was great.

Every later versions of Temasek, I dirty flashed only and didn't flash the gapps. Only flashed the newer version of the ROM. Every upgrade I had never had problems with battery. Proximity sensor worked correctly. Never flashed devil kernel.

At v37 I decided to flash the current and new gapps file. I had serious battery issues that point. Couldn't figure it out but finally concluded that it had to be the gapps. So I reflashed rom and original gapps file and all is cherry again. Battery is great. I have been flashing on the ROM since v37 and have no issues.

Only wipe dalvik and cache when flashing newer versions of Temasek.

I hope this helps. I have been wanting to post in the development thread for Temasek but couldn't.

I don't have the Red light issue everyone keeps talking about.

Anyone with an FTF for the C6802 and C6806, please DO share!

Thanks a lot, again! :)

Coming from .290 with locked bootloader, the upgrade was simple and smooth.

So far this ROM works like charm for me:good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I'll add this to the guide I have written for those with a locked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
Excellent work [NUT]. Works great! Thanks also to Jackie (thread on general forum), blueether for guides to get to rooted 4.3 and NUT's 532 for the C6833. All super work, not to forget to mention so many others (LordManhattan), hamdogg etc.

Used the Xperia xposed apk someone posted forget where and got the extended power menu module loaded and working.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Guessing this is safe as well for 6802 right? :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
I have no idea to be honest... But why not try it?

I'll release the C6802 version ASAP though, waiting for a ftf to surface... :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
mmmm I will wait for 6802! :D

Thanks though. :highfive:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
It will work fine, I'm using the 136 ftf for c6833 on my C6802.

The phone will think it is a c6833 with lte options etc
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] stopa10:
Thanks, [NUT], excellent work. Why don't you update the OP to state more explicitly that people coming from .290 can restore their data partitions from the backup? That would be useful to many.

Edit: Well, I read the OP more carefully, and it seems that this time we don't even need to wipe data, so there is no need to restore anything. Am I right?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
Correct, this time it's a straight update :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] muntaha_v3:
Just recieved my C6833. But already have 14.2.a.1.136 installed. Locked Bootloader and not rooted. how do I go about rooting this device?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Read, read, read some more then...

read it all again

Start in the general section with lordmanhatton's guide, then my rooting guide for 136 and my downgrade guide, and a few of jackie099's and [NUT]'s threads then read them all again.

Then ask any questions you still have
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Nagato Yuki:
Updated to 14.2.A.1.136 with replacing system.tgz to HK's one :victory:

This time the updater-script is correct :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
Yah, thanks again for pointing me on to that issue again :) :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
Did this get updated from last night/yesterday? Also it says De-odex but in glancing at the system files, it appears odexed. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
Whoops, it's a cut & paste error... This is 100% odex
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cameljockey1:
Is ric disabled on here and what is ric. Btw I used this method and works 100% works on C6806.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
Long story short: it's Sony's way to secure the rom.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scoobydu:
Is it possible to go straight to this rom from none 290 by do the wiping in your 290 thread?

Thanks for the rom.

I am on 4.2.2 C6833, rooted and XZDualRecovery 2.7.80 BETA
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] t0pstar:
I have done it without wiping just cache and dalvik and work great
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
I am running a rooted/unlocked bootloader .290 and I want to flash this but lock the bootloader so that I can try x-reality again.

I know I can lock the bootloader restoring my TA backup but I guess I will need to flash some other kernel or I will get stuck on a boot loop.

That part of the process has me confused lol
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Title says LB so should just work :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
What worries me is I have researched and asked before and was always told I need to to do something after restoring the TB or I wont boot...guess I will have to try and fix if needed :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
If it doesn't boot then just re-unlock the BL with flashtool...

I'm not sure what data might get wiped in this process os have a backup on external memory
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scoobydu:
Sounds promising :)

Are you on a locked or locked bootloader?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scoobydu:
Thanks for the rom and easy upgrade method.

Went from 4.2.2 to here without losing my data.

All seems well :)

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] brashmadcap:
App Ops

Edited the accidental rudeness out but for those interested: App Ops is now missing
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I guess you'll have to downgrade and never update the firmware again as Google have taken the access to that away. ie you were never meant to be able to have access to it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] brashmadcap:
In 4.4.2, not in 4.3

Post 4.4.1, I'll move to Cyanogenmod or some other ROM that emphasizes privacy

But damn, I should have phrased it differently I'm grumpy today
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hassanmahmood:
[MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION] [MENTION=3534362]blueether[/MENTION] Any chance for a rooted .136 for C6806?

Thanks guys.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
I'm waiting for the ftf files to arrive to be honest...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
request...will you be de-odexing this in the future? Am no developer but have started to look at it using some of the tools available (not sure how good they are). Only reason is to install certain xposed modules that require de-odexed rom. Managed to install few others (added menu to navigation, changed up the toggles to move to bottom of notifications convenient for such a big device, extended power etc), but some modules need de-odexed rom. Monx has one but it is already modified for black dialog etc which I do not prefer. Anyway..just a question. Thanks for all your work.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Today is when I finally update :D

BTW, I flashed 290 using this :

[ROOT][UNLOCKED BL] Proper root with fixed kernel + Philz/TWRP for 4.3 (14.2.A.0.290)

Looks like it already has the recovery you list as required. Anything I need to do to confirm it is the correct version or am I good to go?

PS My TWRP shows 2.6.3.0 so looks like I need to find a way to update it. Should I be doing the steps under "How to install or update using a previously installed (XZDualRecovery) recovery" instead of "INSTALLER: How to install using the installer" ?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
So I am updated! That was very simple. Thanks a lot! :)

Now I need to figure out exactly how to restore my TA to lock the bootloader and not get stuck on a bootloop but at least the first part of of upgrading is done. :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jamesst20:
Hopefully it will be out soon :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Anyone having issues with the Music FX settings like Clear Audio and the EQ not working or at least not all the time?

Looks like from the Walkman app it works but not from the Settings menu which then makes it not available for other players.

odd....
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
It's in the ftf thread now. ;)

Please and thank you. :)

I'm wanting to see if the cell signal strength meter is affected by an international lte ROM on an NA phone.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Just to confirm I am not the only one with the ClearAudio+ and Music Enhancement issues.

Looks like it barely works now and only with Walkman and even then, only with MP3s but on 290 if worked with FLAC too!

I am about to go back to 290 but I will wait for the 6802 version just in case.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
Add me to that list, not working with Pandora, although I don't feel that I need them.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Do you have 6802? Trying to find some sort of pattern here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
C6806.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Well, not sure if it matters but at least I need to find one with 6833 and the problem to make sure is not related to that.

PS I just deleted Data partition, Format system, dalvik etc (not format internal), flashed again and while the MusicFx seems to work more consistently now from the Settings menu not just from Walkman settings, it still does not apply to any other app and it still does not affect FLAC files, only my MP3s. This is getting me pissed off...may just end up converting all FLAC to mp3 if I cant find a fix and call it a day.

I will wait for the 6802 version..maybe that will do it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
Managed to deodex...boots and works...never thought be possible..thanks to xda and one smart contributor who made a tool that does it and another who improved it. I see mono has his rom up..great work everyone! Good night
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] funfun99999:
Can I just update from 14.1.B.2.257 to 14.2.A.1.136?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Not with this ROM as it needs a > 290 base, as do all of the other ROMs. You can go straight to a 136 FTF if you don't want/need root
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] funfun99999:
Yes I need the root ( 14.1.B.2.257 is rooted) so first I have to update to 14.2.A.0.290 then 14.2.A.1.136?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Have you backed up your TA and unlocked the BL?

If you haven't read the guide by LordManhatton on getting the ZU ready for flashing.

If you don't want to unlock the bootloader you will have to dig pu the thread about getting root on 290 with a locked BL and then work from there.

If you want to unlock the BL then these are the steps to get this ROM flashed:

Flash 136 FTF from the thread by hamdogg using the latest flashtool with a full battery, then these instructions...

Path 1. Coming from stock 14.2.A.1.136 with unlocked BL

Tested as working

This will give you Dual Recovery (CWM+TWRP)

Download [MENTION=2686480]jackie099[/MENTION]'s kernel and recovery: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2631866

Copy to SD card of phone

Flash [MENTION=2686480]jackie099[/MENTION]'s recovery kernel from flashtool (boot into fastboot mode)

[MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION] any luck with a method for the C6806?

The FTF depository has been updated with a link.

Thanks bro.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] funfun99999:
It is rooted and locked BL but no recovery. but why is it not possible using this rom to go from rooted 14.1.B.2.257 to 14.2.A.1.136 without go through 14.2.A.0.290?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
Yes, I was working on other things, got a link to a C6802 ftf by PM yesterday, so I've got them all now, will be releasing them tonight probably. Don't worry, I didn't forget the other models ;)

I have no way of knowing for sure but the reason for this to be needed was actually coming from the Z1, with 290 it repaired the bootloader for the camera (and sometimes this results in a bricked device).

I am aware the z ultra didn't need this fix but as I had no way to be certain, I stuck to the z1 guide just to be safe.

It probably will work fine but you need to be careful. No warranty on function though: test it :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] TheMathMan:
I am fairly new to my Z Ultra. I've unlocked the bootloader and have rooted 290 running.

Is this the only way to update to 136? Will it wipe when flashing our is data not touched?

Maybe I'll wait until 4.4 if I may lose some audio features.

Thanks guys

Tried to install the XZDualRecovery 2.7.81 BETA on XZU but doesn’t work . in the first boot doesn’t not go to recovery as it should and pressing the Volume up or down key when it boot doesn’t work also.

any help please.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] TheMathMan:
To be clear, if and when this shows up for my UK version (currently 290, rooted, unlocked BL) I can't just install it with keep root checked in SuperSU?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
The chance is that ota survival will not work yes, but i don't think it has been tried yet so no way to say for sure.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
If you are referring to being able to apply the OTA upgrade, at least with 290, with the unlocked bootloader it will not install. It will download but not install.

If you are referring to something else, then ignore my comment :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
[MENTION=4870259]funfun99999[/MENTION]

If you flash this rom, or any of the other current ones, without a .290 or .136 it will be very unstable and my not boot - yes several of us have tried while testing .290 roms.

It looks like a lot of stuff deep in the firmware was changed when Sony updated to .290 and roms don't flash these bits, they have to come from a FTF or via PCC

If you have/can have an unlocked BL then just flash a .136 kernel & recovery (there are several to choose from now) via flashtool after updating the firmware to a 136 FTF or via PCC

[MENTION=2252290]TheMathMan[/MENTION] this is a ROM thread not a general .136 thread, but you will lose root if you upgrade via FTF or PCC
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] funfun99999:
i just flashed this rom over 14.1.B.1.532 and its working
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
That is awesome!

I cant wait to try the 6802 one to see if the Sound Enhancement stuff works again with apps other than Walkman and if FLAC files are affected by it again as it was on 290.

:good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] [NUT]:
Yah, sorry for the delay, I was working on XZDualRecovery 2.7.83, which can now install even on the .532 ROM without root ;)

Takes a chunk of work out of installing recovery and updating to the latest version :)
