[Sony Xperia M] GROVER_s90:
hi everybody, hope somebody can help me as im new to the world of roms and os.... i recently fully rooted my xperia m which is pretty cool, i backed up all my stuff and got some of the best apps available to rooted phones at the play store... i would like now if i can to go ahead with putting a better os or a rom onto it but really have no idea where to start.? iv watched videos on you tube which have helped a bit but am still quite unsure..

if someone could help me to locate some decent instructions to do so i would be very grateful..
[Sony Xperia M] krazzyK:
You could better use the 'search' option here on xda... Moreover every rom thread has a set of complete instructions on how to flash it.....
[Sony Xperia M] GROVER_s90:
thanks krazzy :)

can you recommend a ROM to use on here? im running on C1905? and also will i need to remove the boot-loader as well?
[Sony Xperia M] krazzyK:
Yes.. You will have to unlock your boatloader....

One good Rom according to me is cynogenmod 11...

It's in the original development section along with the flashing instructions...
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Duck86:
This is my first XDA tutorial, so bear with me :) I searched the forum and didn't find anything that was linux specific so I decided to post this. It is a combination of info I have gleaned from other sources and trial and error. I have only tested this on Xperia J with .31 firmware and unlocked bootloader. Any damage done to devices is not my responsibility.

I use Lubuntu linux, but this method should work on any *buntu distro.​

For Flashtool:

1) Download the flashtool files from here:

http://www.flashtool.net/download.php

2) The files are .tar.7z, so you will need to use archive manager to unpack them twice. Once for .7z and again for .tar

3) Place the unpacked FlashTool folder in your home directory

4) To run Flashtool, Execute flashtool folder in terminal (right click folder & select 'Open in Terminal')

5)

sudo su

6) Type your administrator password

7)

./FlashTool

A new flashtool window will now open. This process is running through terminal, so you must leave the terminal window open, or else you will close flashtool as well.

For CWM:

1) Download CWM for Xperia J here: http://speedy.sh/UmsCV/ClockworkMod-6.0.2.5.img

2) Open FlashTool as outlined above. Enter fastbot mode on your device by switching it off. Hold down the Vol + button while at the same time plug in your USB cable. A blue LED indicator will appear to ley tou know you are in fastboot mode.

3) In flashtool, click the lightning bolt icon and select fastboot mode.

4) Click 'Select Kernel to Flash' and navigate to where you saved the CWM.img file you downloaded earlier. Select that file and Flashtool will automatically flash it for you.

5) Close all windows and disconnect your phone from your computer. Power the phone on and when the purple LED indicator comes on press the Vol - button.

You should now be in Clockworkmod Recovery.

NB. CWM Recovery for Jelly Bean is only temporary.

Don't forget to hit 'Thanks' if I helped :)

try getting contact with these people

http://www.htceurope.com/

t-mobile will just ask you to contact them. I'm on O2 and I've got my charmer off ebay. And, later there is a problem with the speaker that requires me to send it for repair. I purposely get hold of my self a T-mobile PAYG SIM card so that I can call up t-mobile to have my charmer repair/replace. After all the fuss of getting an internet account, numbers and password pin, the give me the htceurope number. Sigh.

Anyway, try their web page case report thing. the last time I tried it, it doesn't work so I have to call them instead. And, calling them seems to be problematic too, as there aren't usually people around getting the calls. try calling them early 10-12 in the morning (not around 900), and leave a message on their answering machine. They will respond to you the next day. The experience with then aren't that bad. So, good luck :D
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meyhemg:
Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask you something about Knox but I ask here because in the main thread the question would disappear between the pages.

Yesterday I flashed stock rom again, after having custom rom, and now I'm on stock with Knox 0x1.

I wanted to ask what would happen if I try to install the Knox app while Knox is 0x1?

It won't work? It will brick my device? or what?

Thanks

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J3RI3L:
UPDATE: Play Store Web Install seem to be working now but icons still white, do not change to orange.

I got a Moto G US Retail Global XT1032, lats week I converted it to a GPE using a rom build that I found here.

The problem I'm facing is that my phone does not appear to connect to Google Servers now, my Wifi and Data icons tiles in the quicksettings panel stay in white and do not change to orange color, I've also tried to install apps from the Play Store Website and even though I select my phone and all the apps never install (hence the server its not conecting properly).

Any sugestions?

[Other SmartWatches] rockerblood:
According to a knower of things,*@evleaks, Google’s*long rumored entry*into the budding smartwatch market will come at this year’s Google IO in June and will be manufactured by LG.

We haven’t heard much from Google regarding a smartwatch, often leaving tech bloggers and enthusiasts to piece the puzzle together over the past year.**We know that last year*Google purchased WIMM, a smartwatch manufacturer, and quietly added the wearable company into the Android fold. We also know that Google has beenawarded a patent*or two for*smartwatches*in the past, slowly adding to the intellectual property needed for successful entry into this market.

As for LG as the manufacturer of choice, LG and Google have a good history together, producing televisions with Google TV, the**Nexus 4, and the recent**Nexus 5. In fact, it was reported a year ago that LG was getting into the*Android smartwatch craze, so this little*gem*should be right up LG’s alley.

Very interested in this. I hope they tweak Google Now to not be so internet-centric and to be a little more like a personal assistant. I don't know how an internet-centric Google Now will play out on a smartwatch.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irfy87:
Hello,

I currently work for a market research company using Nexus 7 tablets to conduct surveys and questionnaires. We have a DP team which develop the apps for surveys which we put out on Google Play or can add manually. We currently have over 60 Nexus 7 tablets (2012 model) running Android 4.4.2. The current workaround securing the tablet is using Go Launcher, App Lock and WiFi Manager using a restricted account with Encryption on each device. This set up fine... however the two accounts setup is a hassle for the end users who are not technically proficient or use tablets or smartphones on a daily basis, so we need to down it one account. Also secondly, when we have new surveys and push them out, it does download to the main admin account of the tablet, but the hassle of, making it active for the restricted account is what the issue is because giving the end user access the main account defeats the whole purpose of what we are trying to do.

So I have managed to get hold of 2 tablets for testing, unlocked and rooted them both using the handy Nexus Root Toolkit. On one device, I created a main account, with Nova Launcher (instead of go launcher), App Lock and WiFi Manager. I have not put any encryption yet that will come after. I then created a nandroid backup of the tablet in which I restored it to the other device. The restore was perfect and at this point I thought that it's managed what we needed to do. However, on the two devices, we have two separate Google accounts, we have done this to spread out the devices across different accounts due to the amount of tablets we have. Upon pushing out an app to one device from Google Play, it would for some strange reason try to download on the other device and throw up an error message saying "could not download", even though the tablets have two separate google play accounts.

I made another nandroid back up, but this time without any google play/account information stored on the tablet but this to no avail did help. I even tried changing the device ID from Titanium Backup on both devices and still did not work and Google Play seems to think both devices are the same.

So my question is, what do I need to do in order to remove any Google Play info from the devices so google play doesn't recognize them both as the same device.

Everything else works perfectly fine so far and still are testing this out.

Thank you in advance

[Shift General] thamsimon:
Hi all, this is my 1st post.

I've just upgraded my HTC shift with Kingspec 128GB sad and 2GB ram. Now the shift feels super fast!

My version is the italian one and liberate with Romeo OS and running win 7 before the upgrade. i got the sad along with an oem version (built 9200) of windows 8.

install was by using the usb tool to boot and install the OS. i was intending to use the acorns true image however, the image was screwed and hence i decided to install the windows 8.

it's not a path for novices but people with a bit of tinkering knowledge will be able to to do it.

Wifi works and SD card works.

Worth of a mention is one seller on Ebay whom sold me the Keyboard. It came with a few broken keys and they offered to send me another at no extra cost!

I got the memory from here ebay.com/itm/251325732211

SSD from here ebay.com/itm/121184667524?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

The sad sure took his time to come. almost 1 month!

For those who are willing to take the gamble to upgrade, Go ahead. It's worth it.

Battery life improved significantly. Now running close to 2 hours with simple email reading and bait of youtube here and there.

Looking to get another battery and leather case.

Hi all a simple (or maybe not..) question

I am trying to find a way to set up my ringtone level but there is no such thing. can adjust the sound level alright but my ringtone will still sound very loud.

Does anybody know how to do this? I cant find anything like that.

Being able to set up a profile for example would be very nice like in the simple phones.

Thank you in advance.

Makis
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] krale:
Two things that might help...

First, try the Settings > Sounds and Notifications>NOtifications>Incoming call and see if setting the tone to "Increasing ring" is good enough for you.

If not, then set it at ring only, and then in the today screen, move the hardware volume key (left upper corner) and adjust to your desired level.

That's the only thing that can help.

cheers.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Makis101:
krale thank you.

I dont know if I understood you correctly but it is working (I think) now.

If you click on the sound icon on the top right then you get 2 volume adjustment lines one for the device and one for the volume of speaker when you are in a call (or at least thats what I thought i did till now). well the right one actually adjusts also the ringtone volume.

Thanks for all the help. Now I my colleagues can go back to sleep with out me waking them up everytime I receive a call. :D

Hi guys,

I have an Samsung S3 Euro version, and I lost the IMEI during flashing.

I still have the number, the phone just doesn't know it.

From what I understood is I have to prepare a flashable EFS backup and restore the good settings.

I found this site:

http://www.droidviews.com/backup-and-restore-lost-imei-on-samsung-galaxy-devices-without-root/

However the *#7284# does not give me the qualcomm settings but the service mode menu.

This makes some sense, since it has the Exynos Quad CPU and not the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4

So I'm pretty much stuck here, does anybody know what to do?

Thank you.
