[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Whosat:
Didn't work for me either.

Starting from CM11, wanted to flash latest stock ROM with KNOX boot loader removed - downloaded my local carrier-specific firmware from Samsung updates, then proceeded to use the tar and md5 -rt tools on a Mac, failed signature. So did it in Windows using 7zip and it managed to flash. Did it twice to ensure baseband was flashed.

Flashing the stock recovery then doing the same still gives me a custom version :(

Anyone has any ideas on how to return to stock? I'm on non-KNOX boot loader.

I had cm 4.4.2 on my I9195 I have to re flash with odin to go back to clockwork mod then flash original firmware twice and it worked just waiting for the ota update now
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] mason01983:
problem

It did work flashing original firmware twice however I go into recovery mode and I have a dead android with a red triangle and the words no command
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Tyhjäntoimittaja:
It works. I got "official" status and I can download software updates, but now I get dead android with red triangle when I go recovery mode with this message:

# MANUAL MODE #
-- Appling Multi-CSC...
Applied the CSC-code : NEE
Succesfully applied multi-CSC.

No command.

And when I select reboot it says "error," then reboots normally and everything works fine... But is there something wrong?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] splitterzelle:
Which recovery?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Tyhjäntoimittaja:
Samsung stock recovery which is attached in the first post.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Julianzp:
Same prob.

Same here. I've got problems with that Android Stock recovery file. After flashing it, when I tried to go into recovery mode, the dead android logo appeared. However if I reflash CWM everything goes ok. Where can I find another stock android recovery file?, it seems that this one only works for some specific sort of models. Mine is: GT-i9195L. (the "L" doesn't really matter).

Thanks.

Hi people. When we have the OFFCCIAL CyanogenMod 11???
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yumm91:
Highly unlikely.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conrail16:
One of the developers would have to bring it in line with the main Cyanogenmod source tree, which considering the age of our device and the many,many workarounds our tireless devs have employed to get Kit Kat running on the DHD, this would not be an easy task (and quite frankly would gain us very little for all that work). So yeah, don't hold your breath

Does it matter, most official builds of cm11 are done by xda own developers that have gotten permission for cyanogenmod.inc to use their hosting servers. They aren't any more stable then the builds here. And the dev here now is perfect, one of the best devs I seen to get cm stable so quickly
[Moto X Q&A] ts_firehawk:
So, quick question. I've unlocked my bootloader for rooting purposes, but I didn't liked the warning message at the phone powerup.

Will I have any troubles if I lock my bootloader again? The write protection will restore the apps that I've deleted (even though I can't se how this would be possible)?

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] rtm1102:
A simple Google search will lead you to simple instructions to replace the warning with the image of your choice. There are also Mac and PC based tool kits available.
[Moto X Q&A] JJHunterx:
You can just flash a new logo so the warning is gone.
[Moto X Q&A] ts_firehawk:
I had no idea it was just a image. In fact, I thought it was something that was deep inside kernel. Anyway, thanks, I've already found a way to get rid of it following your suggestion.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dropknowledge:
I need to go about returning my 8125 to warranty exchange. Problem is, I did not purchase the phone, rather bought it brand new off of someone else. (who bought it from cingular) The other person is unwilling to do the exchange. Excluding the issue of the reasons for the exchange, and any physical damage (there is only scratches) could I do a warranty exchange without the involvement of the seller? I plan to say the phone keeps freezing. Worked with my razr.

Also, I flashed the phone to a new rom, will this void the warranty? Do i have to flash back to summiter's stock rom? Thanks a lot.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gamescan:
1) Normally Cingular's gonna want some sort of proof of purchase. Since the phone's not been out more than a year though you might be lucky on that point. ;)

2) It had better have the STOCK ROM (not summiter's not Mr. Clean not anything custom, STOCK) before you send it in. Otherwise they're gonna know you messed with it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dropknowledge:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Toosurf:
Well according to this link http://www.htcwizardweb.net/node/161 one of the ROM's available from Summiter is infact the original ROM. Summiter must have backed it up before starting to play with it, I guess.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
If the rom is still a cingular rom will not void warranty.

If not -

This is the stock rom ftp://xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Roms/Cingular/Cingular_RUU_1.8.11.1.WWE.ship.exe

If the device is supercid unlocked then do a simple downgrade - if not you will have to go down this path. http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=47848

This sucks

I have the same problem got it brand new on ebay everything was wrapped in original box including the sim card. the touch screen is having issues the bottom part wont' do anything. tried to call cingular the would not help .. i explained that i am a cingular customer but i have the phone so i can use it on a data plan with t mobile and they would not help at all told me that if i didn't get the item from them or their authorized seller they will not help. I have been on the phone wiht HTC america a total of 4 hours back and forth and they won't help. look sell it on ebay...... and call it a day. I will never purchase another cingular branded phone. thinking of switching to tmobile but their service sucks. sprint out of the question i have too many unlocked phones big investment and i refuse to be locked to one phone using sprint or veriozon. the entire deal sucks.... they should sell phones like in europe walk in the store get a phone at the phone's price not at some larger price just to line the fat greasy pockets of cingular ceo's they tricked me inot migrating my good at&t plan they told me that i had 15 days to decide and i can cancel but when i asked for my at&t plan they tell me some story about they don't have th plans anymore. I still have th at&t sim so what give the whole think sucks. lets move to europe :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jlczl:
Did you tell them you didn't buy it from them? I've done several exchanges and they have never asked me that. They just ask for the IMEI number (which identifies it as a Cingular phone and the model) and then process the exchange. Whatever you do, do NOT volunteer the fact that you got it elsewhere and you should be OK, but yes return it with the stock ROM
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] alynch75:

you mean i can go to the store without a reciep and get a replacement
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gamescan:
Re: This sucks

Now this is a logical fallacy. Have you even bothered to price the cost of a Wizard in the UK? If they were priced the way you say, you'd be paying a whole lot more for them. Retail price on an unlocked Wizard is between $600 and $700 USD. Retail price on a locked unit (ie, just walk into a store in the US and buy it straight out) is $450. With a contract from either T-Mobile or Cingular you can get them from $0-$100.

When you buy used on eBay you always take a risk. Without a proof of purchase, the store/carrier is really under no obligation to warranty the phone for you. Sure, many times they will but it is silly to assume that they have to do it. If you wanted that level of service you would have bought from the store in the first place. Nothing says you can't walk into a retailer, buy a phone and not get a contract.

If you've got a defective phone you really should be taking it up with the guy who sold it to you on eBay as fully working.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] alynch75:
hello wait a minute

I got it on ebay and the guy who sold it said it was brand new now i can't get in contact with him. the contact info that ebay has is a po box. they guy won't return my calls. He sent me one email asking me for the imie number after i gave him that number all of a sudden the phone would not boot into windows. The inial problem was the touch screen now the entire thing is toast. Should I call my credit card company and dispute the charge.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gamescan:
Just giving someone an IMEI number should not cause a boot failure by itself, however the simply fact that he asked for it is somewhat suspect as there is no legit reason for a seller to need to ask a buyer for the IMEI number of a phone after it has been sold.

I'm not saying this is your case, but the first thing that pops to mind is insurance fraud. A popular eBay scam right now is to sign up for phone service and get an expensive phone for free. The person in question will also get phone insurance. Then they put the phone up for sale and collect the cash, while at the same time reporting it to the carrier as lost or stolen. The phone then gets replaced and they have both cash in hand as well as a new phone.

In much of the world (ie all over Europe) this doesn't work well as IMEI blocking has been implemented by the carriers there. If a phone is reported lost or stolen the IMEI is added to a database and none of the cooperating networks will allow it to register. In the US this hasn't happened yet on the GSM networks. With the CDMA networks they tie to the ESN on the phone and will block a lost or stolen phone (as well as one with an outstanding balance).

Regardless, had the IMEI been blocked by the carrier, you would not be able to make calls but the Wizard should still boot up and function as a PDA. Of course, if the seller was trying to pull insurance fraud that would explain why he asked for the IMEI and is now ignoring you. It would be rather simple for the seller to do a warranty exchange with Cingular on your behalf, but if the phone was reported lost or stolen he wouldn't exactly want to be phoning up Cingular and asking them to service the phone.

Just some idle speculation.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] leeky:
Re: hello wait a minute

I believe that you should contact EBay or Paypal and your credit card number to put the case on the dispute...let them know that the item not in working condition as they advertise. You may spent a lot of effort and time for it but at least..... this will make the seller to contact you and deal with you again.

Can this device be saved?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gamescan:
Sounds like it is having trouble initializing a section of the flash. My guess is that there's a bad flash chip on there. If I ever saw that on my Wizard I'd be on the phone asking for a warranty replacement.

Well still no reply from the seller so I called the credit card company and dispute the charge. i have copies of the guys ad... and copies of the rude emails he sent me.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddaggebi:
Okay. I am a Korean. I have Korean Galaxy ace(SHW-M240S).

I've found out that Korean Galaxy Ace has a different Wi-Fi and bluetooth Module from international version. So with average custom roms, I can't use Wi-Fi and bluetooth:( However, everything else just works fine.

There are only two custom roms working for Korean Ace. One is cm7, and the other is cm10(I've wrote download links in the bottom.). Both of them are pretty unstable:(

So I want to ask can anyone make flashable Wi-Fi patches from these roms? Like if you install any custom rom and flash the patch, Korean Ace can use Wi-Fi as normal. If it is impossible, why is that?(I'm a noob, sorry...)

There are tons of Galaxy ace roms in XDA, but I can't flash any of it...:crying: It's sooooo sad.... If anyone can make it, I will really appriciate it;)

cm 7 : http://shsrv.iptime.org/ACE/ACE_cm7-1.zip

cm 10 : http://shsrv.iptime.org/ACE/CM10.1.2_ACE_Say.zip

If you need stock rom that can be flashed with odin, I'll link it, too. Just ask...

Thank you!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MauFerrusca:
Hi all.

After a year with it, I finally decided to root my phone, and some of the most sought after funcionalities I wanted, I got with Tasker. I've read quite a lot about configuring profiles and tasks, but I haven't read about its monitoring process or if it is an energy drainer or not.

Also, Gravity Screen! Amazing app, but now my screen is on for a longer time. Never mind, I also use my phone longer, so it's expected.

:confused:

And then, Lookout. And I've since programmed Tasker to shut down Lookout when I'm at home and load it when I'm not.

But something else I've noticed, besides from the battery drain which goes from 100% to 30% in 1.5hrs when only using Poweramp with the phone inside my pocket, is that the top right of the back of my phone (is that where the CPU is?) gets warm most of the time. Not hot, but warm. And I hadn't noticed that before. :confused:

My battery is not new, but this warm phone situation makes me wonder: what is causing this? Which app can I use to monitor battery use in real time? I am aware of Android's own but I would like to know if there is a recommended battery monitor for something like this.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MauFerrusca:
Right, the thing is that my phone's battery drains out in about 3-4hrs without heavy or even no use, so I'm tryng to narrow down which app is doing the energy drain and trying to determine if the warm part of my phone is due to excessive CPU processing or what.

I've uninstalled Tasker, Lookout and Gravity Screen and started testing on my own how fast battery drains, and apparently, all points to Tasker... or maybe I'm overloading my phone with instructions, so I'll also start small there, cause right now I have arount 8 profiles and different tasks.

Hello, I just bought my MDA a few days ago and here is my current specs:

ROM version: 1.8.10.2 WWE

ROM date: 12/10/05

Radio Version: 4.0.13.20

ExtROM version: 1.8.10.104

Now, I want to upgrade so I can run java applets and I also heard some ROMS simply make the phone run better. Is there a place where I can see the comparisons between all the ROMs available? Trying to look each rom up is just a scattering of information. Any suggestions on which ROM to use. Now, I'm not a noob to flashing stuff I know the proper procedure for backing up, etc etc. I'm simply trying to find a comparisoin between the roms and the best place to find most of them (there is an ftp account here also isn't there?)

Xperia Blog is reporting that the Xperia Z2 Tablet is now shipping.

It would be good to collect initial impressions of the tablet from the early adopters. Please let us know your thoughts.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] SWFlyerUK:
Fast. Light. Slim. Fantastic screen and stereo speakers.

I thought the original tablet couldn't get much better, but it did!

Just waiting for my noise cancelling headset to arrive this morning so I can test it at work today!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] Aripex:
Thanks - how are you finding the speed versus the old tab? Is there a noticeable difference in your real world use (I'm not referring to benchmarks)?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] SWFlyerUK:
There's an issue with the Xperia Live Wallpaper. With it active, the homescreen micro lags, but then again, it also happens on my Z Ultra so evidently a wallpaper issue.

With a static wallpaper there is a noticeable difference in the operation of the device. Pinch to zoom in Chrome is perfect, I experience micro lags with animations on the Z which aren't apparent on the Z2.

Early indications on the battery life are positive and GTA SA plays flawlessly on full settings with the Z2, but it stutters immensely on the Z.

The design feels even more premium in the hand. Sony has rounded off the edges slightly and given it's weight and thickness, is alot more comfortable to hold for long durations.

Software feels well rounded. There are a few tweaks such as the separate notification tray and quick settings that make it feel more like a tablet (rather than the ugly tray on the Z from 4.2.2+), you can now "Cose All" from the recent apps tray, with multiple small apps open there is an additional option called "Grid" which positions them randomly on the screen, smart back light control and noise cancellation, plus the new lockscreen. Swipe up from the home button there is now "What New" alongside Google Now which is a well designed app which gives you top music, video, apps and games.

The additional of the vibrator for haptic feedback is also pleasing.

Huge improvement with the camera too.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] watsonmf:
Thanks a lot for your very thorough review. If you don't mind a question, how is the performance in Chrome when scrolling through a image heavy website (something like Google Image search or one of the news sites with lots of pictures)?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] SWFlyerUK:
I just did a Google search for the word "Google" - the Z2 doesn't stutter, even when the images are loading or haven't fully loaded.

The Z stuttered only when the images where loading. When all images where loaded, both devices where smooth

The Z2 definably has the upper hand.

As another example of the speed. If I open the Play Store and immediately swipe right to bring out the navigation tray. The Z2 is instant and the animation is smooth. The Z lagged and instead of showing the tray, it just appeared out of thin air.
