Missunderstanding

Hi.

I am sorry for the missunderstanding, but actually I was referring to the Xperia Z1 compact :D. That is why I asked for them! Actually I updated the Thread Title to Z1 Compact :)

Another tip, for editing thread titles, you go to the section where you have made your thread, and double click your trade title. For me, I have to press STOP(I'm using Opera, don't know if other browsers behave the same) after I double clicked it, because it is loading the thread, and I don't have time to EDIT the name!

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inazawa255:
Hello, everyone!

Yesterday I tried to flash CM10 in my kindle fire (already running CM9).

I followed the Cyanogen Mod site (wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_otter) instructions.

I downloaded Kindle fire utility 0.9.9 (from CM site), and started the process of updating TWRP. At some point of the installation, KFU rebooted my device in fastboot mode, and kept waiting an awnser from Kindle.

It was taking a bit too long, so I restarted the tablet. Now it keeps on the "Kindle Fire" screen forever, and don't respond to ADB anymore (the "adb device" command don't return anything).

I believe it is not bricked yet, because when we connect it to the PC, it does that connection sound. However, I can't reach it with ADB anymore.

Can Anyone give me an advice for this situation?

Thanks a lot !!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
You got very lucky, kindle fire utility is not meant for second generation devices, usually using it results in a hard brick. The correct way to update twrp is to grab the latest version's flashable zip from the dev section for your device and flash it from inside twrp and reboot. If you no longer have the blue logo and it is a 7" device you will need a fastboot cable, if you do have a blue logo or this is a 8.9" device you won't need a fastboot cable to fix, but you still need to get it into fastboot mode to reflash some partitions back to stock to fix this unless you get a blue logo in which case you could probably just flash the recovery but from what you said I'm assuming you don't get the blue logo anymore. And only the 8.9" models tend to be detected briefly while passing the bootloader.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inazawa255:
In fact, my Kindle fire is a 1st generation one! I had already used KFU to flash CM9 on it (before, it had stock OS) .

Do this fact help in any form?

And, about the cable, I will search one imediatly!!

Thanks for your reply!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
O well then this is the wrong device forum on xda... If its a kf1 then I think fastboot cable will still apply to this. Not positive, kf1's aren't my specialty, while my mother has one I never did much beyond rooting and installing twrp. Flashed a Ubuntu touch preview os on it once but that's about it.

If I flash Odin files it shows modem error..

Please, HELP ME!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 440bro:
Was the device completely stock when this started? Or was it rooted, or on a custom rom?

Did you do any flashing just before they appeared? Or was the device running fine, then they appeared?

What files are you trying to flash that are giving you this error?

The more information you provide, the better chance we have helping you.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzfriends:
Now I'm on mj5 stock, not root. But before it was rooted - MI9, mj5, kit kat(KNOXRAID KITKAT ROM by drakeymcmb) - problem was with all roms and it was solved by restart(I had to restart very quickly because phone worked normally only 1-2 seconds and then freezed). After that device worked fine for a while and then bootloop → horizontal lines → botloop&freeze...

Now I can't solve problem even with reboot.

P.S. wipe data doesn't help.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
Can I have locked boot loader and be able to flash a custom ROM? It would need to be signed by who, Google, LG?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Sure just send it to Google and haven them rebuild and sign it as a factory image (just kidding off course). No, that`s off course not possible.

-Edit- Read the first 4-5 threads in this section before you do anything ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akash3656:
With a locked bootloader, you cannot flash anything using fastboot.

However, if you unlocked bootloader, installed custom recovery, then relocked bootloader (pointless), you can still install stuff from recovery.

But fastboot cannot be used to flash anything (even stock Google factory image).

You sound like you come from a HTC (or similar) device where you would need to relock bootloader to flash a stock RUU, a Nexus is totally different than a HTC device. :good:

Edit: Be warned that unlocking the bootloader using "fastboot oem unlock" wipes EVERYTHING except the OS on the phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
Thanks for the quick response.

How do ROM updates (ex. 4.0 to 4.1 ) get pushed from either the manufacturer like LG or Samsung or Google for there devices then? You have to unlock you phone to update? Typically on Samsung I downloaded through TouchWiz and then it restarted on its own and installed on its own without user unlocking anything.

So how do updates then get pushed? They must be signed and get around the lock boot loader some how? I guess the signed ROM is able to unlock it to install is that purpose then?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
For Google updates there is no need to be unlocked, you talked about flashing a custom rom. Updates get downloaded and installed automaticaly in fastboot.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Flashing /system has nothing to do with the bootloader. OTA updates flash to /system via stock recovery.

A locked bootloader prevents you fastboot flashing. You could unlock the bootloader, fastboot flash a custom recovery then lock the bootloader again. You would still be able to flash /system with custom roms. Bootloader doesn't prevent flashing. It just prevents fastboot flashing
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
What stops custom roms being flash through stock recovery?

What stops custom ROM be a OTA so it can be flash stock recovery?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
googles signature
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
BK in the house! Anyways.

Just to clear things up for me.

If I keep my stock recovery and keep boot loader lock, then I can't flash my ROM unless I have Google keys. Okay I got that but mentioned earlier that you can flash to the /system, OTA (Over the Air) package, does that have to be signed for that? What is the mechanism to flash OTA, stock recovery or something else?

Ultimately, something like CM is doing, if I make a ROM, I could make my own recovery and with my own keys and call it verified and safe and push OTA packages for updates??
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Everything official is signed. Nothing unofficial can be signed. Nothing unsigned can be flashed without either a custom recovery or unlocked bootloader.

Hope this clears everything up for you.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
Could you replace the

/system/etc/security/otacerts.zip

or

/META-INF/com/android/otacert file

with your own??
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Lets cut to the chase. What is your ultimate aim here?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
LOL

Just trying to get an direction so I continue to do further research. Mostly my aim is more in depth understanding.

I want to build my own ROM and I'm starting that journey. Definitely a newbie but not a newbie to technology and programing and by no means an expert. Just a senior college student that with enough information to be "dangerous".

I would like to have ROM that doesn't need to have unlock boot loader or have custom recovery? Is that possible? i feel a lot ppl I meet don't like to use Custom ROMs b/c of these hurdles. I guess I would have to have root access to change out the CERTS either way.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You can't even flash a full official rom without unlocking the bootloader. It isn't possible on this device
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
I think if it was possible, it would have been done already. But its not that big of a hurdle to unlock and root. Its actually a lot more easier than it seems. It usually takes about 5 minutes to do after getting all the necessary files. All you need is a general understanding and the ability to follow directions well.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
No i went right to a custom, unlock, root, custom Recovery, Custom Rom

On Samsung pushed OTA and reboot and install...DONE.

So it is possible!

It isn't as easy as you think because more people would have it. I walk into any CS class less then 10% are rooted or Custom. Most of them probably are on iphones but that's different. My point is that you would think some what intelligent geeks would take the time to do so but they don't. IMO there are still hurdles and CM are trying to breach these inconveniences except Google doesn't like it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
on samsung, samsung signs the roms, not google. so of course its possible for them.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
So essentially you just need to replace the certs to push your own OTAs through your device. Which at some point you would need access to those CERTs so you would need root access.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I wasn't asking a question. I was telling you it is not even possible to flash official nexus 5 full rom from Google without unlocking the bootloader.

As mentioned, because they signed the update and it matched what their rom and their recovery expected.

You cannot simply "guess" a signature. You cannot reverse engineer a signature. All you can do is remove whatever is validating the signature and this cannot be done without unlocking the bootloader
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
Are you talking about an OTA from Samsung or a custom ROM OTA without unlocking the phone. If its from Samsung then yeah, they have all the stuff to put into the OTA to bypass the locked bootloader. But anything like that probably has to come from the manufacturer because they are the only ones who have the "keys". I have never owned a Samsung device (other than the Galaxy Nexus but that was more Google). So if I'm just not understanding that, then I apologize. I think around XDA, everyone here just finds it easier to unlock, root and be on their way. But if you find a workaround, I'm sure people would be interested.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you would need to create your own bootloader that that would allow your signature to be flashed
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
Let me guess boot loaders are proprietary?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
No no no....

You cannot push a custom OTA to an official ROM. You can only push an official OTA to an official rom and this is nothing to do with "certs".

When you flash a custom rom, that custom rom can (if it has the facility) send its own OTA and "certs" wont matter in the rom because they're not used but OTA always need recovery.

Official OTA from Google, samsung, htc etc are signed and match what recovery released by Google, samsung, htc etc expects. But that is because Google, samsung, htc etc created the recovery. Unless you know what signature to apply (impossible unless you're Google, samsung, htc etc) then you cannot flash without first replacing the recovery.

I'm having a hard time explaining this to you but to make it simple, what you want is impossible.

Of course
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yes.

that is the security system so to say. thats why we "unlock" it to flash custom roms. only google gave us a simple way to unlock the bootloader and flash custom roms, all other companies do not do that.

---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:26 PM ----------

not impossible. very unprobable, but not impossible. he would have to create his own bootloader to read his signature to flash his roms signed with his signature.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It is in fact impossible. His ultimate aim is to release a rom to a user without unlocking the bootloader or using a custom recovery. Even if he could create his own bootloader (which as you've already stated is very improbable) how will this user get that new bootloader onto the phone?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAXGEN:
But ultimately defeats what I'm trying to do. Closed source boot loader is the problem unless I reverse engineer it and understand it..not likely to happen.

If only there was complete open source phone. What an idea! How come it doesn't happened? (Sarcasm) Why would that be a bad idea? Of course not, security IMO would be better. At least I would know there isn't blatant back doors.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
flash it, like a flashable zip or via fastboot(?). like flashing a bootloader update via zip. but really, the chance of him doing that is ever so small, so small that you can call it impossible i guess :silly:

but if someone had the time, the education, and the means, it probably would be possible.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
...he'd still need to know the correct algorithm of the existing (official) signature to do that, which if he knew - he wouldn't need to create a bootloader :)
