[Sony Cross-Device General] poodump:
Hey limiter,

First off, thanks for the awesome tool. I'm glad someone out there is catering to the mac folks who are too lazy to spin up a windows vm :P

I have a z3 that I downgraded, rooted and backed up my TA. I then installed D6603_23.1.A.1.28_Customized_US_SuperSU_XZDR2.8.15 from http://xdaforums.com/z3/general/d6603-5-0-2-flashable-stock-23-1-0-690-t3056361

As a paranoid test I tried to back up again after that was running smoothly and it says "Could not get root permissions" even though SuperSU is saying that root permissions were granted to shell. Looking into the logs for backup-ta gives http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=GnQLJihA

I know my other backup will probably work fine if I roll back to the original image and reroot (4.4), but I'd rather not if possible.
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
Hi,

Glad that you like the app :D

As I see from the logs that you sent, there seems to be some extra output from the root check command which causes it to fail.

I will try and fix it ASAP.

Thanks for reporting this issue and for sending the logs, it really helped :thumbup:!
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
New version available

Thanks to [MENTION=4204414]poodump[/MENTION] for reporting the issue :good: !

The new version 1.4 is now available as an update or download (check first post for links).

Changelog (1.4):

Fix root permission check

UI bug fixes

Enjoy ;) !
[Sony Cross-Device General] poodump:
Wow, thanks for the quick turnaround! I'll try it out tonight.

Is there any way to validate that the img contains the keys, etc? I'm super paranoid about unlocking my bootloader without the keys fully intact.
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
I don't know of any sure fire way to check the keys (except unlocking the bootloader and restoring the backup :laugh:) , but if you open the .img in a text editor, you should be able to find your device IMEI, serial no., a bunch of certificates, the flashing history and some other stuff. If you are really paranoid, do a backup of the entire phone (including TA) with TWRP and you'll be good to go.

Good luck :fingers-crossed: !
[Sony Cross-Device General] poodump:
Gah, just realized my bootloader can't be unlocked...
[Sony Cross-Device General] monkeymind:
Hi, do you know of any way to back up TA for xperia on Mac osx 10.6.8? Your app works for 10.8 or later...

Thanks...
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
Thank you very much! It works like a charm. :D
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
Hi [MENTION=4695799]LegendM[/MENTION],

It seems that the app cannot send the backed up TA partition image to the phone via ADB.

You can try looking on the Internal Storage/SD Card on your phone for a file called restoreTA.img and delete it, then try restoring again.

If it still doesn't work, post the logs again and try the following steps:

extract the backup zip file into a folder on your Desktop called ta-backup-unzipped

make sure that the Backup TA app is on your Desktop and that the phone is connected

run this command in Terminal, then send me the output:

/Users/mertcelen/Desktop/Backup TA.app/Contents/MacOS/adb push /Users/mertcelen/Desktop/ta-backup-unzipped/TA.img /sdcard/restoreTA.img

Hope it helps :fingers-crossed: !
[Sony Cross-Device General] LegendM:
Thanks for quick response :highfive:

I tried and it gives me this error

failed to copy '/Users/mertcelen/Desktop/ta-backup-unzipped/TA.img' to '/sdcard/restoreTA.img': Permission denied

Seems like I have a problem to write sd card ( it may restrictions like kitkat right?). I tried to do it without sd card but app seems to predefined to write sd card. :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
[MENTION=4695799]LegendM[/MENTION]

Can you try running the following command, using the same setup as before :

/Users/mertcelen/Desktop/Backup TA.app/Contents/MacOS/adb push /Users/mertcelen/Desktop/ta-backup-unzipped/TA.img /data/local/tmp/restoreTA.img

This location should be writable, since busybox is successfully pushed there. :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Cross-Device General] LegendM:
Hello, sorry for late reply

Here's the output
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
Thanks, it seems to have worked!

I'll try and modify the app this week :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] LegendM:
Thank you, please update me when you do :highfive:
[Sony Cross-Device General] LegendM:
So any news?
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
Here is a beta version of the modified app. Try a test run and then a restore ;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] LegendM:
It seems it worked :victory:

So, thank you for your help. I'm sorry that I wasted your time but it wasn't working. Btw, is there any way to check if drm is functional or not? Beside testing your app.
[Sony Cross-Device General] limiter121:
New version available

Now available as an update or download (check first post for links).

Changelog (1.5):

Fix restore when sdcard not writable (changed backup image path on restore)

[MENTION=4695799]LegendM[/MENTION]

I think you can check the DRM keys via the Service menu (Dial *#*#SERVICE#*#* -> Service tests -> Security).
[Sony Cross-Device General] LegendM:
I just checked and MARLIN,CKB and WIDEVINE are "Unknown Error"Active state. Others key ok, active. So drm restore not successfull right?

Edit: Oh after restart. Ever key is ok and active. Thank you soo much
[Sony Cross-Device General] teebol:
Awesome app. I'm a Mac user but use a Windows machine to work on my SGP621. Anyway, I was banging my head trying to restore with the PC (the famous "corrupted while pushing" message) but this worked the 1st time! Bravo! The difference in the resolution on the tablet with the DRM activated is incredible.

[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Mach5:
Okay! I took much time surfing all over the net to find this and finally I got the Perfect solution for people who are beginners(n00b)

If you try to decompile directly it won't work(not atleast for Core but only for some devices), so here we go

Things you will need:

APKTOOL

Script

Rooted Core

Root Browser (or something similar)

Make sure you have Java SDK installed in pc.

Notepad++ or a decent xml editor

Preparation :

1)Copy these two apks' in sd card or somewhere you can access it from pc.

system\framework\"framework-res.apk"

and

system\app\"SystemUI.apk"

2)Copy these two apk in your computer system

3)Extract APKTOOL and Script until you get "aapt.exe", "apktool.bat", "apktool.jar" .

4) Make a new folder anywhere in your comp. and paste these

(i) framework-res.apk

(ii) SystemUI.apk

(iii) aapt.exe

(iv) apktool.bat

(v) apktool.jar

(vi) You also need to paste "cmd.exe", use Run command to find it and paste it in the folder...

Steps:

(i) Open cmd.exe, it should show the location of the current folder

(ii) Type

apktool if framework-res.apk

(iii) After it is done, Type

apktool d SystemUI.apk

(iv) Now you successfully have SystemUI.apk decompiled in the same folder !!!

Precautions:

i) Ensure you have not "CUT" but "COPIED" the apks from the folder, this can HARD BRICK your phone !

ii) Decompiling apks' takes time according to one's pc's speed, have patience.

iii) Please do not try to decompile or play with framework-res.apk in anyway if you are not experienced !

iv)And as thcoreguy says

Checked and tested:

*I have used win7 64-bit SONY laptop

*Worked for I8262 and SHOULD work for I8260 (the files)

I spent 4 hours in hell trying to get my Maxx rooted, finally succeeded but after all that it makes you really appreciate the work developers put into the exploits. I am assuming since the phones are so new, that it will be a while. I was more just curious if it was POSSIBLE than asking for a time frame of when to expect one.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkey hung:
I've had Nexus' my whole life and the one thing that attracts me about the Note 3 is the battery life. I wake up 5am and get home around 7pm and I use a LOT of screen time. Idk too much about the Note 3 but I'm hoping to get, at the most, 8 hours screen time from browsing the web, listening to music, and other little things.

What is your guys' experience with the Note 3? Is the development good? Battery life good? Was thinking of getting it and replacing it with an AOSP ROM.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iPWNtehNOOB:
I have a Nexus 5, and I purchased a Note 3 for $380AUD a few days ago with the intention of selling it on Ebay for $600. After playing around with it the last few days, my girlfriend has decided she wants to keep my Nexus 5, so I'll keep the Note 3. Honestly though, other than the bigger battery, it feels like a bit of a side-grade. That being said, I can get 6+ hours easily of SOT, with an hour or so of heavy gaming. If I was to just browse the web, check emails and listen to music, I'd get 7.5 to 8 hours. I love the feel, look and concept of the Nexus 5, so I really wanted to keep that, but the Note 3 is still pleasant to use. The longer battery life is certainly welcome. The size is a bit ridiculous though. I'm used to being able to operate my Nexus 5 one-handed, whereas that isn't possible with the Note 3. I'm not a small guy either. I'm 6'2 and have pretty large hands.

All in all, if you can get a Note 3 for the price that you could sell your Nexus 5, it might be worth it. I certainly wouldn't purchase one for any more than that though, as you'll find it offers diminishing returns for the cost.

It seems to me like you have only a few options:

A ) Compile a ROM yourself, with the necessary patches to enable national roaming.

B ) Find the commits and ask a ROM developer to integrate them into their ROM.

C ) Try out all of the available ROMs to see which others (if any) have that option.

D ) Stick with Paranoid Android until it becomes more full-featured.

I wish I had better news for you.

They're starting from scratch with KitKat. They're rewriting all of their features to clean things up. It'll take time until it's back to where it was, but they believe it'll help with future updates.

If you click the link in my prior response it shows the merged commits. You can copy the links and get them into the hands of a developer and hopefully they can integrate them into their ROM.

You are better to go and recompile SystemUI by yourself, i think.

You also can try with the apk from IC, but make a backup in recovery before.

Sure, i will make a backup.

If you are using this "Insert Coin" ROM, can you upload SystemUI.apk? My connection is slow, downloading the whole ROM takes hours.

I'm planning on buying a stereo BT headset.

Based on the use I'm planinng and my personal taste, etc. I'm down to these two:

- Bluetake i-PHONO mini Bluetooth

http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=2960

- Nokia HS-12W

http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=2986

Now I can't decide myself. I can't test it cause they're not available locally yet. Price is similar.

I guess Nokia is more versatile, has radio, LCD that can be fully used in the future (new ROM's?)

But the concept of Bluetake is great also. Don't know if it's a bit bulky.

I'm more on the Nokia side right now.

Can you people with wizards (and cousins) give me some insight about those two options, maybe some detail makes me decide....

Txs!
