[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] a_new_day1503:
No, if you flash FW via flashtool, the root is lost.

I think you should :

1. Back up ur app by titanium backup.

2. Download 4.1.2 stock FW LT30at from HERE

3. Download newest 4.3 Unbrand and flash it via flash tool (u must choose exclude baseband)

4. Root it by my tool

5. Restore app

If root fail at 4.3, u can flash 4.1.2 stock then root and restore app. Good luck
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Jordamo:
Thank you again.. If root doesn't work.. Is there another method to root? I wanna stay on 4.3.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] a_new_day1503:
Now that is only way :p, try and if working, confirm with me.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Jordamo:
Ok tomorrow I'll flash it and confirm..

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] makysssdroid:
This tool can root in 4.3 update in my xperia TL30p
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nlooooo:
Nice try.

It installs a bunch of Chinese bloatware, language can't be changed and root CAN'T be obtained.

As much as I could understand it's a tool for MTK hardware and uses restore for root, and it doesn't work.

Rooting Tool for Xperia V

:silly:

dear a_new_day, i was wondering if you would have a 'tool' for Xperia V (LT25i). I was searching the forums for a version that would work on my newly installed FM 9.2.A.1.199, JB 4.3. Your thread came up and I was hopeful but I read through it and it's for Xperia T :crying:

as of present I haven't yet found a working one for the new FM. I hope that DoomLord will soon come to the rescue...

thanks for whatever help/thread/link you can give. it's my only way to tweak the phone so as to increase the LIMIT number on SMS sent.

[Moto X Q&A] Pwnicorn:
Does anyone use the Trickster Mod app on stock kernel? I have the donate version and i take advantage of the charging LED light. If so what, if any tweaks did you try? I also use the multi core power save tweak set a 2. For anyone that may know, would using titanium backup to convert Trickster Mod to a system app have any advantages?
[Moto X Q&A] unsivil_audio:
Doubtful. AFAIK Trickster mod just makes the changes at startup, it doesn't need to run all the time.

BTW I have both enabled, the multi core power saver and mp-decision.
[Moto X Q&A] sman789:
Cool to know it works with the stock kernel. Is there a noticable difference in performance and does it give you better battery life?
[Moto X Q&A] Pwnicorn:
It's tough for me to say if it gives better battery life due to a lot of changes in settings, e.g. greenify, app permissions etc working in connection. I will say it doesn't hurt. When my phone is asleep I lose about 1 to 1.5 percent per hour which is okay with me. Performance is fine for my needs. Plus I like the LED feature to know when my phone is charge by the status of the green light without having to psychically unlock the MX and check. But to say how much of a difference is hard to tell without setting everything else back to default and just using Trickster.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burger30:
Hello,

Just curious , on the back of my xperia Z , to the right of the camera lense there is a little hole

i thought at first there was glass over it , but seems to actually be a hole

anyone know what's up with this
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastaowen:
It is a secondary microphone for back camera.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joejoe23:
Secondary mic?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burger30:
So should it should be an actual hole then, and not something covered like a camera lense
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theskig:
It's used for another thing too. :cool:

It's the microphone for noise cancelling during calls (and also in video recording)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Nikiz:
I want to mention this first: The, USB-connector is FINE. There is nothing wrong with it. I have cleaned it, USB fits tight and wiggling the plug does nothing. The contacts on the connector and the cable looks fine, not bent or anything. I have taken the phone apart and I checked the connector and nearby components with multimeter, it pushes 5V to the components near the connector, without the battery connected.

The problem is that when I insert the USB-cable to the phone, the battery goes to 0% and the phone shuts down. Then the phone shows an image of a battery + exclamation mark in yellow triangle. If I turn the phone on and insert the USB-cable on the GIO-screen, it will not shut down until I remove the cable or reinsert it (it depends). At that stage the USB-connection is fully working, removable drive, tethering, adb, etc. It will not charge though.

I checked the voltage on the battery connecor, it was under 2V. On my Galaxy Y and my sisters Galaxy Trend, it was around 4-5V. This could mean, that this is an hardware issue? Is there anywhere a diagram of the circuit, so I know what to check? Basically on the front side, everything I checked near the USB-connector was around 4-5V, but on the back side, it was under 2V.

The warranty has been expired about an year ago, so I cannot send it to warranty repair.

EDIT: I solved it! But I did not manage to locate the problem though. It was an hardware issue, for sure. I put the phone in oven for 5 minutes to reflow everything. Apparently there was a cracked solder joint somewhere.
[LG G Flex] aristide1997:
Hello guys, I decided to post the an easy method to root your g flex! You don't even need to use any command prompt for this. The only problem is that this is chinese language, so you have to click the exact buttons. At the end of this tutorial, you will have a rooted phone. Until now, no bricked phones have come out of this process! It only takes 5 minutes!

1. Download this file: https://tr.im/64637 <--- HELP ME! OR http://goo.gl/U6Jwaf

2. Install the software, using the installation buttons as you would on any other windows installation.

3. When you have installed it, you will see a green button, press it. Then connect your phone on USB debugging mode.

4. When the phone is connected the software will recognise the phone and the green button will show "ROOT", click on it.

5. The phone is going to be rooted in some seconds and the process is finished when it will show a tick on the software.

6. The phone will reboot.

7. When it is rebooted, go to google play and download super su.

8. Open super su and it will ask you to update the binaries, and you must click on update, and then normal.

9. A window in chinese will pop up on the phone, this is the screen that allows you to give root permissions to any app. You must click the button on the right.

10. You are done! Root process is complete!

11. This is the most important step. Leave a thanks! If you liked the tutorial, please show it to me!

Post below if you have questions or don't understand.
[LG G Flex] yellowman82:
How do you put the phone on usb debugging?
[LG G Flex] gtamgs15:
Settings > General > About Phone > Software Information > Tap "Build Number" about 7 or 8 times to enable Developer Mode.

Then Settings > General > Developer Options > USB Debugging

When it starts the restoring part after that it seems to fail it even shows an X on the software and my phone never rebooted so i know it didn't go well

Vroot and Kingo root are unsafe methods of root, use IOROOT. :)
[LG G Flex] lexo1a:
can you please specify why vroot is "unsafe" compared to ioroot?
[LG G Flex] Z51:
Its a chineze root method that works with almost amy version of android. I heard it installs spyware and loggers on phones. IOROOT is just as easy and safe
[LG G Flex] will0899:
I used vroot on my l9 never had problens with it. I tried with my flex d uhh didnt work. Tried everything, just kept failing at the restore screen.
[LG G Flex] Z51:
Use IOROOT. 1 click process
[LG G Flex] will0899:
Thats what i used. Probably should have put that in my post. Worked good once i figured out how to do it.
[LG G Flex] aristide1997:
Have you also tried my method?
[LG G Flex] will0899:
Yeah i tried like 10 times. It kept failing at the phone restore portion. I really wanted it to work because i used the same method on my lg l9 and it was flawless.
[LG G Flex] wase4711:
is there an easy way to "unroot", aside from dealing with restoring factory firmware?

thanks
[LG G Flex] kintwofan:
Sure is, in the supersu app go to settings and click full unroot
[LG G Flex] wase4711:
so, in theory, if the kit kat update drops soon, we can just unroot that way, install it, and then just "reroot" the same way, or, will there likely be a new procedure for re-rooting with kit kat?

I know we wont know for sure until it actually happens, and since LG has a weird way of locking stuff down, its not likely to be that simple!

thanks
[LG G Flex] aristide1997:
Have you tried it?
[LG G Flex] blackbelt5:
Do not download. This

this is full of spyware and trojans do not download Warning
[LG G Flex] TheKing1997:
Sure IOroot is easy to use.

But towelroot is even easier to use and almost certain to work.

The biggest advantage of towelroot is:

It's an app, which means you can keep it on the phone and after an unroot for an update you can easily reroot simply by using the app. :cool:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crusader11:
Hi

This is my first post to this forum

Recently i had bought new Moto G from India. Phone is awesome. But display seems to be faulty. It's screen is slightly pinkish tinted. I had compared it to Nokia 520 and 720. Pics are attached herewith. My question is that, It is really faulty display or it is common to all Moto Gs. Please give me suggestion on this as there is still 30 day replacement scheme available. Should i have to replace it or not ?

Thanks in advance:good:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crusader11:
Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpuspeed:
this is a 1st world problem but its from India.

seriously, tints on the phone vary..most of the time towards blue. so having a slight pink would be perferred to many.

Is there anything really wrong with it? Then replace it.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crusader11:
Thanks for the reply.

I think most of the Moto Gs are made from 2nd world(china). so problem may be common to all.

i had asked this question because if this problem is common to all Moto Gs then there is no reason to replace it. and only other Moto G owners know the display quality.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crusader11:
further suggestions would be appreciated:good:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinguijxy:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techpick:
Read somehwere that manufacturers release these tinted glasses for a reason.... It gives the lcd more durability. Mine also has a velvetish tint on the screen. It could also be the addition of metal oxides to give it a better durability. Can anyone second me on this?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crusader11:
That i dont know,but may be possible

But i forgot to add one thing that even color of the LCD material of Moto G is somewhat reddish(not black or grey). When LCD is in off condition(no back-light), reflection of light from Moto G's screen seems to be reddish. Means color of the LCD material of Moto G is reddish, not blackish nor grayish

Does anybody has observed this type of thing ?

I just got a launcher called Aviate from the Google Play Store. It is a really good launcher. It is still in its beta version, but it is still pretty good for a beta version. It has three screens, which automatically sort your apps. There is an app scroller too, but instead of App names, there are app icons in the list view. When you swipe down, information regarding that particular category comes (e.g. work, home, nearby places, music, etc.) When you download the application, you need a code to activate the app. There is a special offer going on right now as Aviate has launched a new category called Music. Just type MUSIC in the code box, and you will activate Aviate for your phone. Have fun using Aviate!:D

Flash super sense to see if it's actually a problem with your phone.

If it's an issue with your phone (across all ROMS) you need to revert back to the old radio because new isn't always better.

If it isn't a problem with your phone, then proceed to format all partitions and flash viper again.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cedus:
Hi!

The story so far: I tried to flash my Nextway E9 tablet (ICS, 9.7-inch 1024x768, 1.6GHz Rockchip RK3066, 1GB DDR3 RAM, 16GB internal storage, not rooted) with a new stock image (update.img) found on wwwDOTnextwayDOTcomDOTcn, because I had some WLAN-troubles. I put the file on the root of my sd-card and inserted it (as described in the read-me) into the tablet. After the message "update.img found. Do you want to update the system" I pressed Yes and the tablet rebooted into 'flash mode'. There were lines like 'checking version' und 'updating', but after the reboot I only got an half-white-half-black screen. The device isn't recognized via usb anymore and I'm stuck.

I searched over 5 hours but couldn't find any clues on how to recover the device. Since the recovery procedures of other tablets won't work I used random button mashing and found a way into a recovery console:

Hold [Back] - Press [Power] 5sec - then release [Back] - Picture of an open droidbot appears - press [Power] und [Volume up] - Android Recovery Menu appears

In this menu I can choose these options (with the following results): reboot system (works 'till half-white-half-black) | apply update via ADB (not working; no device found when attached to pc) | apply update from external storage (what update?) | update rkimage from external storage (renamed update.img to rkimage.img - not working) | apply update from cache (didn't try) | wipe data/factory reset (works, but what for?) | wipe cache partition (works, but what for?)| recovery system from backup (not working)

Can anyone please help me to either recover to the old stock firmware (which I didn't find on the homepage) or to flash any custom firmware or...

One thing: I have access to a second E9-tablet, if there is a way to copy the firmware or so...

I know there are other battery related threads but I didnt want this observation to get lost in a multitude of other posts.

The BBC Weather app causes a lot of Android System NlpWakeLocks as seen by WakeLack Detector App on 4.4.2.

I was on rooted 4.3. Wanted to go to 4.4.2 so flashed stock 4.3 and allowed 4.4.2 OTA. Started to get a lot of Android System NlpWakeLocks's.

Used fastboot to erase system, cache, userdata partitions and then flashed 4.4.2 direct from official firmware. Still same issue.

After investiagation I have found it was the BBC Weather App causing the problem.

I uninstalled BBC Weather and rebooted, all fine for a few days.

Reinstalled BBC Weather and started app, immediately WakeLock Detector app shows Android System NlpWakeLock's increasing very fast, I hit refresh and can see the counts going up and an extra second of awake time is added every 5 seconds or so.

Uninstalled app and same problem still there. Rebooted and problem has gone. I then reinstalled app and opened it and same thing.

I can reproduce every single time.

To fix the wakelocks I must uninstall app and reboot (MUST reboot).

I have reported this to the BBC Weather app devs.

Hopefully this helps others who see high nlpwakelocks via android system, it may be that other apps have the same effect.

Hello,

I make this thread to present you a simple but efficient application named Tiny Torch that is available here on the Google Play Store : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ssaurel.tinytorch

Like its name indicates, the purpose of the app is to provide a tiny torch on your device.

The application works well and comes with a simple UI displaying a simple button to light on / off light.

Besides, a widget is provided that lets you to light up quickly the torch from your home screen when you need it.

Some screenshots :

* Light off with toggle button

* Light on with toggle button to on state

* Widget off button on home screen

* Widget on button on home screen

Tiny Torch is simple but very efficient and has the advantage to provide a valid widget that enables light from your home screen directly.

Tell me if you have feedbacks about the app or ideas to improve the Tiny Torch.

Thanks.

[Android Apps and Games] Kocane:
Very slick looking widget .. does the job too
[Android Apps and Games] sylsau:

The difficulty with the widget was to launch camera directly from widget. It's not possible with Android SDK but I use a little tip to make that by launching an activity in background and so you can light up flashlight like that. So, widget works like I wished :)

Hello,

Tiny Torch has been updated in version 2.0 to fix some minor bugs. New version is available on Google Play Store : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ssaurel.tinytorch

[Microsoft Surface] theonegeneral:
Well then, I probably totally killed my Windows Pro RT 8.0..

Here's the issue; I've had it for a day and after installing updates and attempting to update it to 8.1, I hit reboot and.. that was the last time it ever worked.

Now it is in an endless auto repair loop.

When you boot it up, it shows the surface logo, followed by ''starting up auto repair''..

After showing that for awhile, it goes into the same surface logo screen, followed by ''diagnosing your pc''

.. and after some time, it just does Exactly the same again! No menus or options are showing, even after hours!

And here's the kicker; I've tried six recovery usb images so far. None of them worked! I have a 8 gb 3.0 usb flash drive, both .iso images and put the files directly onto the usb. Both didn't work. (Yes I've applied them both in a good way :) )

Booting it up while holding the volume down - button does nothing.

I'm a student from the Netherlands, any support is GREATLY appreciated!!

What I didn't try yet; I don't have a surface touch pad (with keyboard eh). If I could get into the system using that, I'd like to purchase it.. but otherwise, not. :confused:

If you've only had it for a day, I would exchange it with the vendor. If you can't (or don't want to ship it back) contact Microsoft Support. I'm sure there are other diagnostic things to try. But maybe someone here will know those things. I haven't had any issues with my RT that a restore hasn't fixed.
