What steps in the process would I have to omit if I dont want to root and just want to flash 4.3, Also there seems to be many versions of 4.3 such as UK unbranded Ch unbranded. If I'm using it for Tmobile US, which would I choose?

Hey man yeah everything seems to be perfect except for the MMS aspect of my messages. I can't seem to download the MMS messages, the default texting app keeps telling me that "Could not download message. Check settings for multimedia messages and try again later" I tried the APN settings to the forum you directed us too but that's not working =(
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dhickory:
Make sure the APN you created is selected and then reboot after.

Make sure LTE (preferred) is selected.

Once verified APN is selected and reboot, go to MMS and long press picture, select download. It should DL after that.

If that doesn't work you can also try to "Service Providers" and there should be an option for a T-Mobile network.

Can also try turning on/off airplane mode, but the APN always works for me.

You got any solution on the charging bug? I swapped the battery to new one but it didn't help so I suggest it's the board or charging controller?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoubleYouPee:
Sounds like a dead battery to me
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whazz_up:
Yeah could be.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunix:
Actually I have tried all possible software fixes without luck

As you mentioned its either a dead battery or the charging chip

Mostly I think it would be the charging circuit\chip because my battery would last for a day but showing wrong status and it will mostly charge if the battery still has a charge and the phone is switched off

Hey,

Using the steps i mentioned above i have managed to boot multiple times,

It's really a weird issue, i was thinking about swapping the battery with another one but glad you mentioned that its not the issue

I also was about to unlock the bootloader and install some modded kernels just to but you mentioned that you have tried CM with no avail so its not a kernel issue then we have the options shorted to only the charging PCB being defective, maybe the current sensor on the power\charging PCB is causing the issue

anyone knows where we can get a replacement to try?

Thanks

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABCdude:
Hey hunix,

Thanks for making this guide, this exact issue has been troubling me for a few days now. I had already bought a new battery which charged once but has the same status now, and this thread also confirms that battery is not the issue. Now, I am trying to follow the steps to get the device working once to check whether the issue on my xperia Z is the same as what quickstyler suggests (Many thanks for the hardware fix, quickstyler) before trying any soldering on my phone.

I am able to get into fastboot mode, but when flashing system.sin, fastboot returns an error : remote (data too large). Even after lots of googling and searching on xda (tried different fastboot binaries, but none helped), I am none the wiser on that error. Any chance you guys encountered that error or have a solution?

Also, if this error cannot be resolved, can fixing the charging circuit hardware get my phone in flash mode as I have erased /system on my phone.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quickstyler:
Seems you try to fix your software with Flashtool...

First... Why don't you just use the repair function of SEUS?

Second... Tried using Flashmode (Green LED)

Third... Bootloader unlocked?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunix:
Hey,

Make sure your in FlashMode not fastboot mode as [MENTION=1942856]quickstyler[/MENTION] mentioned and regarding the hardware fix i didn't have any free time to try it but its a logical fix to the problem i already disassembled my device and going to solder the wire in a bit

thanks

Hwzt bru,

I have tried all these steps and still now winning. I have followed all the steps, the only thing different compare to what I do compared to yours is that the .sin files for are not system.sin. When I do get updates using the flashtool, I get system_S1-SW-LIVE-5CA3-PID1-0002-MMC.sin and same goes for the kernel.

what am I doing wrong?

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aakashba1001:
Hello!

I would like to thank Hashcode for CM10.1

and thanks to advice from stunts513 I finally got CM10.1 running on my kindle fire HD 8.9 after a brick scare.

Theres this one issue I cant seem to fix,

Any of the gameloft games I play not keep slipping orientation on me . They are in the landscape mode but it just keeps flipping upside down after every pause/resume or every mission etc. The games worked fine on the kindle before rooting and CM and work fine on my apple devices too.

I havent tried other games yet, I pretty much only play a few gameloft ones and this issue is with every single gameloft game I have.

I tried orientation locker but only works in portrait. Does anyone have an advice how to fix this ?

Thanks Alot in Advance! :good:
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedsonRising:
Try an App called 'Set Orientation' works great for me. It's available in the play store. Says it's for phones, but works great on CM on the KFHD.

Sent from my CM 10.2 modded KFHD_7
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aakashba1001:
Already tried that, doesnt stop game from flipping it.

And its not just gameloft, most of the role playing games are doin it.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedsonRising:
Hmm. What did you set it to? Also, if you reboot, you'll have to restart the app, it doesn't automatically start up on a reboot.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
i use ultimate rotation control for that issue, it has a free trial.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aakashba1001:
I locked it in the orientation i wanted to, works fine outside the game but during the game the screen just flips upside down, even when the tablet is just kept stable on the table, happening with almost all games.

Also If i upgrade to cm 11.0 is there a way to backup my apps or do i need to download them over again? :D

Is there a way to flash this file back other that flashing the ROM? Or should I just flash the stock D803 ROM? I want to avoid losing my data.

What is the best way?
[Moto X Q&A] Deleted member 4333722:
The previous two updates, yes, even the one from today (3/17/14) have rendered my Active Display useless. I've got the XT1053 DE, rooted and on 4.4. Anyone else having issues?
[Moto X Q&A] drago10029:
Please explain this statement carefully "The previous two updates, yes, even the one from today (3/17/14)" wasn't sure what you meant.

Also, if it worked on stock then it works. after you root and flash you're gonna have to ask these questions with the root maker or ROM maker if you're using a custom ROM.

and to answer the question I have never had problems with active display. Try going back to stock is my advice then re-root and carry on.
[Moto X Q&A] someguyatx:
Not rooted, 4.4.2 no issues with active display. What do you have turned off?
[Moto X Q&A] Deleted member 4333722:
I meant that the last two updates, even the one that was supposed to fix the broken Active Display, don't work on my phone. If I uninstall updates it works fine, so I don't have anything disabled to cause it to not work. If you check the Play Store reviews, others have had this problem and have been referred to their customer care, but customer care sucks and rarely knows what they're talking about, so I figured I'd try here first.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
I've never had any problems with it, using 4.4.2. Is it possible the people with problems are using 4.4 and not 4.4.2 ?
[Moto X Q&A] Deleted member 4333722:
That's what I'm afraid of. I don't want to flash stock recovery and update for such a minor update that some report cause more battery drain.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
4.4.2 has been awesome for myself and my local friends, however we are all using XT1058 hardware and the Rogers 4.4.2 firmware build. With the various hardware variants and firmware builds there are bound to be various smaller potential bugs here and there that only select groups of people come across.

Did you re-lock your bootloader?

I have tried different usb ports, and downloaded from multiple mirror sites, and tried a different cable. But I dont have any other pcs to try it on. I dont believe it is a usb or cable issue, I get that error as soon as I try to open the program. It wont even try to load.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OMJ:
just to confirm, you're tying to install the 4.06 RUU, right?

if yes, are you extracting the zip then running exe? run as administrator?

only other suggestion would be to try to use fastboot to flash the rom.zip from the extracted RUU
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] kdoran531:
I figured out how to make it work. I dowloaded the 3.05.651.6 RUU and it started just fine, so I swapped out the ron.zip and it got me back to stock!

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EJOE12345:
This person posted this about kindle fire not working

At first my Fire wouldn't charge unless it was placed in a particular way, then it stopped altogether. I pronounced it dead, and left it stowed away for a few months, but then decided to try and fix it. I think this guide may be useful for anyone who wants to fix a kindle with dead charging. Note that you may damage your kindle in the process so if you are still under warranty, use it.

1. Take off the back cover. You may need to use a guitar pick or something similar.

2. Take off the two battery leads. One has a locking mechanism which needs to be lifted before the ribbon cable can be taken out.

3. Take out all screws connected motherboard to rest of device. There are connections underneath the board so be careful when lifting it.

4. When I lifted it, I found the USB connector had broken off the entire board (if it was even attached in the first place) and this was obviously causing the problems, as the USB connector could now only connect to the motherboard if pressure was applied so that it was being held on somehow by it. To fix this, I could have tried to solder the tiny USB connections onto the board, but instead I used a different way which is working perfectly for many weeks now.

5. Get a rubber band and tie a not in it numerous times until the knot is about 3-4mm thick. Cut off remaining rubber band and superglue the knot onto the bottom side of the USB connector (the side that faces the display when assembled). Then insert the USB connector into it's little holder under the board, with the rubber band firm beneath it and replace the motherboard. Redo all the screws, reconnect any connectors you've disconnected (you may have had to disconnect some to remove/move the motherboard - always undo battery cables before you work on the innards of any device).

6. If you've done this correctly, the round rubber band knot should press the USB connector continuously on to the board. Test using your stock charger before you put it back together because the back cover is pretty hard to get off.

7. Replace the back cover and enjoy!

Notes: My rubber band knot was actually a little too large, which meant that to connect the USB plug I had to press the kindle together to insert the cable, but charging is reliable and working so far, so I'm happy about that.

If you found this post helpful, please click the Thanks button!

And I think he's long gone it's an old post and I need help what does he mean by connect the rubber band to the usb where do you put the rubber band where do you super glue it the motherboard kindle or the usb and what does he mean by tie it how do you tie a rubber band

After installing a flex rom my rotation is ****ed up and when I have the phone pointing up, it rotates to the left, and when sideways rotates as if it isn't being rotated at all (idk how to explain it properly). And if I calibrate the rotation, it doesn't do anything either.

My USB port is kaput so I need to send my CWM+CM11 blaze for warranty repair. Can't flash via Odin and the only stock room zip I found on the forums is a dead link. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] champ784:
Sorry dude... At this point, you've voided your warranty by changing the firmware, and the USB is the only I can think of to revert back to stock... You have to remove your custom recovery with an external device, and only can really be done so via USB... Unless you opened up your phone yourself and somehow tapped into a different way...

Are you charging you're battery externally? Have you tried a different version of Android? Believe it or not, I've lost USB functionality (software and hardware uses) because of a particular ROM not working well, or even a need for a simple reinstallation...

Unfortunately, rooting your phone comes with risks, and disclaimers are posted for every thread... Not trying to be a jerk... Just saying... :)

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Jserrano56:
didn't I warn you about this...?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] rxjx6:
Actually, based on what I've read on these forums, as long as I can flash a stock zip via CWM, I should be OK. The man don't care if you install a recovery, they just don't want you to root or install another ROM. I did try other ROMs. In fact I'm now running the rooted stock ROM from one of the forum posts. If I can just get an un-rooted stock zip I'd be home free.

I'm charging externally, switching between the OEM battery and a spare I bought.

And yes I knew the risks, but I'm reasonably sure this is not caused by a ROM, more of a hardware failure.

Huh? I've never experienced this. Every time I push the button on my headset, Voice Command activates. No matter how many calls I've had. It might be a matter of the headset as well. I could never get my Jabra BT500 to work reliably...sold it. But my Tekkeon ET3000 works flawlessly.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] keitht:

When it stops working, does that registry value still show the right value?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] aron7awol:
I don't think that anyone can say that Voice Command works flawlessly over bluetooth.

The fact that pressing the button on the headset opens the audio gateway and it has to be closed before it can be opened again is a bug, not a feature. The audio gateway should close itself and doesn't.

The software has been out since January '05, I believe, so some bugs with Windows Mobile 5.0 are expected.

That being said, I love Voice Command despite its issues. Once Microsoft decides to release a new version that works better over bluetooth, I'll love it even more. It's presently still worth buying, definitely.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] swedbass:

It's a great piece of software. It has a few quirks which annoy me a little but hopefully they'll be sorted in the update if it ever comes.

When voice dialing a number e.g. dial 282 456... it insists on putting a zero infront of the number i.e. it will dial 0282 456.... I'm using the UK version BTW. I tried the US version up it didn't recognise my voice as well.

Also, the volume of the voice when annoucing this could be louder. there is no way to increace the volume.

It wold be nice if they expanded the command library to include more functions.
