I see this method is for unlocked bootloader. How does this process differ for locked bootloader?

We have the tool to backup z1c DRM keys now. So, you can unlock and relock the bootloader without void the warranty.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] 325i.:
I'm really confused now. My understanding is the only way to unlock the bootloader is via the official sony website. But when I type *#*#7378423#*# it says I cant unlock it.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] TheEndHK:
I've heard there might be some specific stock of Sony phones can't unlock(probably you got it via some network carrier??) but I don't know why and how to unlock.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Iruwen:
Restoring the TA partition after installing the rom screwed up my phone for some reason. It was stuck in a bootloop, even after repeating the complete installation process and various attempts at locking/unlocking the bootloader and reflashing the kernel. I had to flash a stock FTF and restart from scratch. Not sure what caused this, the process is pretty straightforward, but the usual warning applies: always make a full app and/or NANDroid backup before screwing with the system :eek:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] TheEndHK:
so ... maybe restoring TA only works for stock firmware?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] AndroidInsanity:
Couple of questions about this MOD.

Will this work with any stock based Z1 ROM?

Will it work with CriskeloROM v7.3 ?

Any bugs?

And if I install a Z1 ROM, and an update comes for it. Is it safe to install if its based on OTA?

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Iruwen:
First sentence in this thread dude... just try it with Criskelo. You could simply make an OTA update and install the patch again, that should work as long as you have a working recovery. I didn't notice any problems with RomAur 9.1.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] TheEndHK:
In theory, all z1 stock based should work but some roms just made too much changes and may not work on z1c(you can still get them to working but you will have to modify the rom to make it okay on z1c). Only monx and romaur are safe and sure to work on z1c because they don't do heavy modding.

Generally, monx should even slightly better than romaur but since the dev of monx moved to z2, the z1 monx is still stuck on 4.4.2 though the dev said he will update it to 4.4.4 but no schedule yet.

[Zooper Widget General] omaral:
How can I make a progress bar for playing MP3s? And is it possible to make it so you can slide your finger along the progress bar to control where you want to play the MP3?
[Zooper Widget General] kwerdenker:
Assuming that you already have Media Utilities installed and setup to work with Zooper this will do the trick to display the song progress. Using it as a slider is not possible though.

Progress bar module with custom values setup:

Min 0

Value #TMU_TRACK_PERC#

Max 100
[Zooper Widget General] omaral:
Yes I got Media Utilities already set up in Zooper, so thats not a problem. I entered the code as you said in the progress bar module value. Min and max values already had 0 and 100 respectively by default. But it doesnt work. Could you check to see if this is the right code?
[Zooper Widget General] kwerdenker:
Did you check the "Send progress" option in Media Utilities? It's down at the bottom in the Experimental section.

I'm sure the code works because I tested it on my device before posting it :)
[Zooper Widget General] omaral:
Ahhh.. perfect! thanks a million. One question.. do you think Zooper drains battery?
[Zooper Widget General] CopKiller76:
Not really. I have my screen full of zooper and it uses very low battery.

Hi guys,

I'm searching for some messenger with strong privacy and "secret" features. Better explained, I've found Telegram as a good alternative to Whatsapp with its encryption features, but it lacks one thing that I really need: I'd like to keep some chat very private: it will be very useful if the conversation had some kind of PIN-password-pattern unlocking features.

This is possible for sms (Handcent, for example), but I haven't found it in any Messenger service.

Do you know any?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supercoolguy23:
Bump. I'm looking for one too. I looked into evolveSms but I think its a bit over priced for the features. I'm currently using handcent but I don't really like the UI.

Go Sms Pro

Try GO SMS PRO the best messaging app on playstore it has lots of themes a good ui and the most important one privacy !!! you can protect your messages with pin or pattern lock !!! you can search on play store. I think you have to pay for some features but you can try it !!!

Sorry for my bad english ....!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powersimon:
Once again, I'm not interested in sms app, I need some messenger app working through data network. Maybe with the same features of go sms pro.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Furchendackel:
As shiva-afk stated, Threema has the protection option you want. It provides end-to-end encryption and protects your send/received messages/media:

First, you can protect your conversations if you set a passphrase for your encryption key. So, if you end the Threema process or reboot your phone, you have to enter this passphrase first before you can access any chat log or received pictures since they are stored encrypted (unless you exported them from the app into common store like the sd card).

Second, you can set a PIN to the app itself. So, even if you have unlocked the key with your passphrase, the app locks itself after being idle for some time and asks for a pin. You can define the time before it locks itself in several steps (30s, 1m, 2m, 5m, 10m, 20m).

However, it is not free (costs ~1,60€) and its not open source. The devs (from Switzerland) claim to use the common NaCl-library for crypto, but you must trust their sayings.

I believe you installed an application that monitors your data usage. Have you installed something like a battery saver?

I know one case where JuiceDefender turns off your mobile data when you power off your device screen, and refreshes every XXX interval to check for new notifications.

If you don't know, I suggest doing a full factory reset in the Settings application (THIS WILL CAUSE YOU TO LOSE ALL DATA)

Follow the directions to ODIN the NAE tar **CAUTION** This includes the NAE bootloader and will cause Knox to trip as soon as you root it. Personally, I don't care; I'm only one year away from an upgrade if I want it.

ODIN the updated CF Autoroot.

ODIN Philz Recovery

Flash Negalite WondeROM NAE r6

Profit

I've flashed r10 (not released, but available on SVN) and it has a working WIFI tether. The only issue is that I had to flash KT instead of Nega's Kernel over it to stop a boot loop. Other than that it works great. This is my first day with r10, but no significant battery drain issues to report. My Negalite flash was a clean install.

---------- Post added at 12:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------

You need to ODIN CF Autoroot and Philz first before you can flash Negalite. You'll lose root with that tar
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ajmcedar:
Easiest way to check your bootloader is to use one of the following apps.

Root Checker

Device Info

Nega's WondeROM has always been a stable performing ROM with great battery life.

Not sure why the hate for the NAE modem.

Also not sure about the mismatch between modem and ROM, I haven't seen many posts about it being anything bad.

Nega's NAE r10 (only available via SVN) already comes with the r30 kernel. I built the r9 after stuffing the services.odex from r7.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] i7vSa7vi7y:
I already have Philz Recovery so Im good there. What is knox exactly. Is that just the words on the top left on startup that tells samsung your phone has been tampered with?

How did AJ manage to keep MF9 bootloader?

So Odin CF Autoroot.

Then I'm going to Stock NAE

NAE firmware then to the ROM and Kernal?

I need to flash the Stock NAE? I can't go from MK2 to NAE firmware then to ROM?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] i7vSa7vi7y:
Thanks AJ. How would you recommend flashing this ROM from MK2 bootloader? I love my S4 and I just don't want to go through and bootloops or any other non sense. I'm just looking for another opinion. It looks like comrad gave me everything the safest way.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ajmcedar:
I had never taken any of the OTA updates since mf9, was still on the 4.2.2 no knox mf9 bootloader.

I kept MF9 bootloader (already rooted, Philz 6.08.9) by:

Odin the firmware for mk2 from UnknowForces thread, then rebooted to verify.

Went into Philz recovery, loaded Nega's mk5 r35 rom. Rebooted and let it settle.

Odin the firmware for nae, again from Unkown's thread, rebooted to verify firmware and baseband.

Philz recovery to load Nega's nae r6 rom. Rebooted, let it settle.

Nandroid backup using Philz with SE context checked (required since the 4.3 update) once I was sure all was good.

Setup SVN for any new commits from Nega.

Again, all this was doen via dirty flashing, YMMV.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] conradcbrown:
When/if you flash the tar, it'll flash the stock recovery as well, which is why you need to start over from scratch basically. The NAE tar from sammobile is the end-all be-all and includes the stock recovery, bootloader, modem, ROM, etc.

Yes, basically Knox just keeps track of how many times you've flashed a custom recovery and could void your warranty for software issues.

You can keep your bootloader if you decide to flash Negalite on top without pushing the tar over ODIN. I did that for a week or two with no significant issues, but did have a little lagginess in the phone (could have been subjective) and I couldn't resist seeing what the latest and greatest felt like. But no, I had no real issues flashing r6 over a MK2 bootloader and MF9 modem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ajmcedar:
Just Odin the nae modem from Unknown's firmware thread, then Philz recovery to flash Nega's nae rom/kernel, I believe that the only downloadable zip is his r6. Newer versions requires SVN to download the latest commits, then his scripts to create the flashable zips.

Originally I did the full wipe/factory reset/clean for an new rom, (after I did a nandroid of my current setup). all my apps/personalization got wiped.

I restored my previous nandroid and proceeded going forward with dirty flashes. It worked for me, but YMMV, each device/situation is different.
