There arw no compatible roms to flash... You need an unlocked bootloader or root exploit to rom we have neither.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KWOKSFUNG:
To all z1c / z1s users, i dont recommend u to unlock the bootloader of your device now

1. U will lose DRM key, bionz and X-reality will be gone (X-reality may be able to restored, but not possible for Bionz for now)

2. U may think about TA backup. But before doing TA backup u need to have the bootloader never unlocked yet but have your device rooted, in which this condition is impossible currently.

3. yeah, sucks to be u, but there arent so much thing u can enchanced on the z1c and there seems wasnt so much rom for u to install curently. plz wait :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rosystreasures:
Hello All,

I just bought a galalxy note 2, which has Macksrom allstar 5.0, which seems to be based off 4.1.2. I really want to safely unroot and upgrade to stock 4.3. I have a system update available. Is it ok to just use that to update? I know on some phones, you cant and must use odin and stock firmware. What is the right way to do this?

Thx!

Hey... I don't know why I didn't make a backup... stupidity... but I flashed a non-Sprint ROM to my Sprint HTC One phone with TWRP and now when the phone starts I am stuck on the HTC One logo.

I've tried various things to resolve the issue but none have worked. Fastboot sees the phone just fine but I cannot get ADB to see the device or do a sideload. I've tried installing the latest HTC drivers repeatedly but my Device Manager just says "One" for the detection of the device.

I am really frustrated and willing to buy someone a beer if they can help me sort this out. Any other steps I can take? Thank you.

Download a Sprint HTC One RUU and boot into fastboot mode. Run the RUU and wait a few minutes for it to do its thing. Note, it will wipe your phone clean. Another option, if you can boot into recovery mode, is to uninstall the HTC drivers and install universal ADB drivers from http://koush.com/post/universal-adb-driver (sideload doesn't work with official HTC drivers sometimes) and sideload a compatible ROM.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markinsf:
Thanks - I already tried to run an RUU and it failed - are there difff versions?

I will try the the universal ADB drivers. Thanks. :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamer765:
RUU probably failed due to you having an updated HBOOT and it trying to downgrade to a lower HBOOT version. Also, for an RUU to succeed, you have to lock your bootloader first.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
A good and detailed post, and it's not just the dev's and support that could take note. Some of the people that ask questions really need to read your post and think about what they are trying to say, get help with -- we aren't mind readers either.

I always try and help anew user by using as few TLA ;) as possible in a reply to them. I also try to do the steps as #'d lists with as many steps as possible.

I do think LordManhattan's guide needs a little love as a few things are a little out of date - but it is as comprehensive guide as you could get, and most vagaries are covered in the thread.

TA = trim area, where your unique DRM keys are stored, and god only knows what else.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Thanks for your well written post! First I want to say - like Blueether just did, that we are not mind readers, so we can't possible know people's skill level or what they want to do. That's why I've started to ask them straight up what they want to do and where in the process they are. That way it'll be easier for me to help the other person, and hopefully write a short but complete step by step guide. It won't happen that often, but if I got some time to spare, why not.

My guide is a little out of date now, and I have planned to update it for quite some time, but things are moving so god damn quick around here that even I will get outdated if I take a short break. I recently sent my Ultra in for repairs, and 12 days later when I got it back and ready to get back in the game, a new firmware had been released with a new rooting method. I knew everything one day, and nothing on the other. It's really hard to balance real life and being kept updated at all times. Don't forget that you must be sure about what you know and write when you make a guide, because you don't want to brick people's devices. One slipup and the consequences might be ugly.

There are (of course) one or four ways of doing things around here, and you'll probably get different ways of doing things if you ask me or blueether about rooting or flashing custom ROMs. I guess it's just the way it is. New methods also pop up once in awhile, so some people will adopt these new methods while some other people will stick with the old school method, thus making things a little more complicated for new people who are looking for reliable information.

The TA partition is, like blueether already said, your device's unique DRM keys which makes X-Reality (and other minor things, I guess) work. It's important to make a backup of this partition since you'll lose it when you unlock the bootloader. Why would you unlock the bootloader? You have to unlock it if you want to flash custom ROMs, or if you want to make rooting easier. The problem is that you need to be rooted to back it up, so you'll have to spend some time reading and researching before you start.

Just keep your Ultra stock for now, and just casually read and soak up stuff from different threads around here. Walk around like you do in a new city and check out the locals and see what they do and say. You'll pick up a few things here and there and things will start rolling from there.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ferg8080:
Yes you can see some people just rush in with questions without giving serious thought to what they want to achieve. I think its people who don't often understand the process properly, haven't thought it through and are following what seems like a straightforward step by step process. Understanding what you are doing requires patience and TIME.

XDA I think is an unrivalled repository of amazing contributions from amazing people on a technology that is constantly evolving.

Its also a jungle

is there a registry edit that allows mp3s to be set as system sounds? It would saw some space if wav files didn't have to be used.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] hanmin:
The WAV files are in the ROM. As far as I've been told, you are able to overwrite a ROM file by writing at the Storage Memory. If the unit sees the same file at the Storage Memory, it will use that instead of the one in the ROM. However, it will not save you space. E.g. if the file is 1MB (at ROM) and you overwrite it witha 300K file. Instead of saving 700K, you are actually using an extra 300K to store your new file at the Storage Memory.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arosca:
Sorry for the n00b questions. I'm confused by the large number of posts about rooting the TF300T which are for different firmware and Android versions.

I have a TF300T running Android 4.1.1. The firmware is JRO03C.US_epad-10.4.2.20-201212028.

I'd like to upgrade to Android 4.4 KitKat.

What is the correct sequence of steps? Some of the posts I read say that the device needs to be unlocked first by downloading a utility from Asus, but I don't see an unlock utility that's made for this firmware version.

Also, I don't have a USB cable for the tablet. Can I flash from a microSD?

Thanks in advance!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheislegion:
The V7 unlock tool from Asus ought to work...just used it about an hour ago on my TF300T with the same firmware version. It's an APK, so just download, install, and run. After that, I grabbed the Jelly Bean update from Asus; their directions say to use a microSD card. Upgraded to 4.2 that way... I expect to be able to follow the directions in this thread to root and install a recovery. Once you do that, the sky's the limit. Good luck!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
Basic outline of steps:

1.) Unlock

2.) Upgrade to latest Android 4.2 Stock ROM

3.) Root

4.) Flash recovery from terminal - TWRP 2.6.3.2

5.) Flash KitKat ROM.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arosca:
Thanks for the tips!

I was able to download both the unlock utility and the 4.2 firmware from this page:

support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=ASUS+Transformer+Pad+TF300T&os=8

NOTE: the direct URLs listed below only work outside of China. See the page above for download links if you are in China or Taiwan

NOTE: the following URLs are for the US firmware version of the TF300T (build number contains "US"). See the page above for download links for other regions.

The steps are as follows:

1. enable installation of applications from unknown sources (Settings -> Security -> check the Unknown Sources box)

2. download the V7 unlock utility and install on your tablet. The tablet will reboot and you will see "device unlocked" in the top left corner during boot. This is the direct link to the V7 unlock utility (this should be downloaded directly from the tablet):

dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/TF300T/UnLock_Device_App_V7.apk

3. download the 10.6.1.8 firmware to your PC from here:

dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/TF300T/TF300T-US_epad-user-10_6_1_8-UpdateLauncher.zip

4. extract the ZIP file. There will be another ZIP file inside. Copy this "internal" ZIP file to a microSD card

5. insert the microSD card into the tablet. The new firmware should be detected automatically and an exclamation sign icon will appear in your system tray. Touch it and follow the prompts to perform the upgrade.

You should now be on Android 4.2.1 and firmware US_epad-10.6.1.8

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgaw70:
Im having a really weird issue with the sound quality in call between my gf and me both on nexus 5s. I have had mine for a few weeks, she liked it and picked one up about a week ago. The sound for both of us is hard to describe but it sounds tinny, a high hiss, metallic when one of us are talking, when we're not there is no static, hiss anything, only when talking, almost changing our voices. Neither of us experience this talking to any one else at all. We don't live together so I talk to her regularly and I was thinking somehow it was with one of our towers while at our homes but I have other family that lives blocks from her and on tmo and we don't get this. So we tried in different locations and the same thing so that's out. The weird thing is I can hang up, call her using my google voice number and it is crystal clear, call back using my tmo number and right back to the same sound.

I'm not sure where to go with this. I know I can just use my GV number but it's driving me crazy trying to figure out why the hell it would do this. Any help or insight is appreciated.
