Hello. Device is lgg2 for at&t. Need help rooting the device. Got close to kitkat OTA. 4.4 downloaded and I got the drivers from lg. Daemon started and connected. Device found and acessed. Then total failure. Please assist. Errors in picture
[AT&T LG G2] DubSolo:
From what I understand, KitKat cannot be rooted this way yet. There are ways of preserving your root before the update, check the lgg2 at&t development threads. Or just stick with custom Roms based on 4.4.

Same problem on my Tablet.. must only work on phones?!
[HTC One Max] Jokichu:
"MixRadio isnt available in your territory" what i got after installing..Kenya/Nairobi my "teritory" isnt supported apparently. Makes you wonder, how or why and all the music is supposedly in "the cloud" so any body in whichever "territory" should be able to install and access the music as long as they have a working internet connectiion. Would have loved to have it. any good alternatives to it??

It looks like we might be able to use Tasker to force GEAR Watch to notify us JUST IN CASE we are ABOUT to leave our phone behind:

Thanks for fOmey, who discovered a broadcast that occurs when the GEAR is outside of LOCKING Proximity.

Because using Bluetooth Connection Status is NO good, it remains connected for too far a distance that by the time the Bluetooth LE disconnects, you're already 10s of meters away from the phone.

The unlocking Proximity triggers when you are just 1 meter away or so. :good:

Hi I recently ran into problems where I use MediaMonkey to handle my music library. MM stopped seeing my SD Card as storage and could no longer sync my music. I trolled through the MM forums and found someone had a fix using the following app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix

Just wondering that it would be useful if something like this was built into the ROM?
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
Method 1

I noticed one thing, that kitkat doesn't have this folder:

system/etc/snd_soc_msm

and files:

system/etc/snd_soc_msm/ snd_soc_msm_Taiko

system/etc/snd_soc_msm/ snd_soc_msm_Taiko_1x

located in firmware.

Just place the files in the attach on this location with 644 permissions and reboot.

Superuser don't have anything with rw to /system.

You need root for writing and modifying system folder.

Then you could copy file in root browser/explorer, no need for flashing from recovery.

Let's try this and test for a day or two...

Have you maybe checked or know that we had that files in 4.3?

I know you get them from MOD but are they in stock system/etc?

And do we even have framework, prop or any other system file that knows how to use that files...

Tnx ;)
[Xperia Z1 General] kantk20111:
Installed it, so far so good, will monitor it for the next few days to make sure. Good job nonetheless!
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
Yes. We have this files on 4.3. Well, as far I remember.

We've other file but it's present on 4.4.

But maybe someone with other level of skill can check this better because I accidentally hit on this fix. :P

Btw this is my second day on this and so far so good. I really hope that works well for everyone.

Note :

I'm trying to remember where did I get this files from to give credits to the owner.
[Xperia Z1 General] madsatan:

after 3 hours .....
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
Hmm... For me still working without problem. I will run more tests.
[Xperia Z1 General] shahzaib.khan:
For me it didnt work. I dont know what the hell is this prob n why no dev is giving their attention regarding this problem :(
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
I don't have the redirect issue, but I think this won't help as those files shouldn't be used at all on 4.4 or else they would be in the original firmware. It's like taiko files are used for 4.3 and mixer_paths.xml is used for 4.4. I might be wrong and Sony might have messed it up. I'm not having this issue at all so I can't tell I'm positive of it. As far as I remember there were other files in 4.3 next to taiko files. I can send them in a zip here if you want.Thanks for the credits btw :)
[Xperia Z1 General] ange1us:
I have this problem 2-3 times few day ago, and then I restart phone and it never happen again (without mod anything, just restart)

Not to worry tho eh :)

Can anyone point me in the direction of rooting without unlocked bootloader?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
Hmm I could swear that was after I use this files that my sound issue was solved but now I don't know what to think. As I said before I'm not a dev and I just share this "fix" cause I notice they were missing on 4.4. but now you say they are not used on kitkat. Hmm... Maybe some expert dev can look at it.

You can share those files please? Maybe we can solve this problem with the missing files.

Cheers.

[Xperia Z1 General] shahzaib.khan:
Guys i guess i was right at the first place

I comeback to 4.4 from the start

I flashed xperia ultra firmware which is modified by nut then i put 156 of xperia z1 then i root it and flash recovery on it and then formated every thing except external card, i formated internal memory also. And yes till now received 5 calls there is no problem...

Try it every one
[Xperia Z1 General] kantk20111:
I have not had a problem with the speaker in the past 2 days since I have installed the mod. This has never happened to me before. Before that I got it at least once per day. Now I don't know if I'm just getting lucky or the mod actually worked!
[Xperia Z1 General] Kelvin0007:
Flash .534 and root it with vroot, install recovery, flash .681 then use flashtool to flash stripped tft. Good luck!
[Xperia Z1 General] :
Flash .534 and install recovery from NUT without rooting your device because once you're in recovery mode it will ask you to root your device if you want to restart to system, otherwise you could just flash any ROM and flash again the latest flashable Recovery ! and you'll be good to go :)
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
Well, I'm not saying that it is not working at all and I'm sure of that. It's just my opinion. I know some stuff, but I certainly do not have the time to read about 6k of strings to work out what's wrong.(I actually would have to understand how the sound is routed on the device which is pretty damn hard) I would try to fix it but I never had this problem so I don't even have any idea what is the bug.

If you guys mean that after you end a call the headphones volume goes lower - I think that's normal. It's volume is boosted while talking because the source of the sound is different than music. There is a slight delay between switching from the music to the call and back again to the music, that might be the bug we're talking about here, am I correct?
[Xperia Z1 General] danial.aw:
i want to update to kitkat... but the reports of this bug is very off putting :/
[Xperia Z1 General] shahzaib.khan:
No this is not a problem

A problem is there is a ring tone and notification sound coming from the ear piece speaker which is very annoying because people are missing their important calls because they cannot here any thing

Please try disabling chrome without restarting the phone, check if the problem persists and report back!

[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
Did you root your device? If yes you can try the steps on the first post and see if works for you.
[Xperia Z1 General] Masih60:
My problem is that I didn't root my device. Is there any other way to fix this damn issue?
[Xperia Z1 General] papzi57:

Interresant: the system sound works right..

Just ringtone, notofication and alarm is random: somtimes from earpiece, somtimes from loudspeaker.

And its really random!!
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
You must root your device in order to test this.

[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
This is a real problem... I don't have a clue why some users experience this more than others. Did you try to install another version of kitkat?
[Xperia Z1 General] papzi57:
I have a totally clean install from SUS (because I screwed up the upgarde, went bootloop...)

Ergo I have a stock .681 ROM, after the clean install from SUS I unlocked the BL, flash CWM recovery and rooted with SuperSu and Busybox.

Wich version do you think?

Now I don't want experiment with costum roms...

I think this bug coming from stock SONY rom.
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
Honestly I would try a few "cooked" there are out there on development rom section and see.
[Xperia Z1 General] papzi57:
OK!

My (or Our) problem is: We have xZ1c (D5503) device. Its new and very poor development for KK.

But this sound bug is the same with your (C6903) device.

That should (must) be solved SONY! (not voluntary developer)

I think...
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
Sony should solve this problem soon I belive. :)
[Xperia Z1 General] Wolfbreak:
Are all of you sure that its a bug and not a own mistake becouse i had often that i didnt hear Notifications becouse i was listening to Music very quiet before and since 4.2 i think Android linked those 2, so if your Volume is low it might be becouse you turned Sound down. I installed Xposed Module https://play.google.com/store/apps/...posed.ringerandnotificationvolumeunlink&hl=de for that
[Xperia Z1 General] LJE:
It's Sonys problem/mistake.

I never unlocked bootloader/rooted this phone.

Updated to kitkat with seus and had it happen twice with YouTube. (sound coming through earpiece)

10 / 15 seconds in after tapping my screen and rotating from landscape to upright and back to landscape, the sound came through the speakers again.

It only happened twice in the first 4 or 5 days and only in the first hour of updating.

Then yesterday and today every second phone call, the ringtone comes through the earpiece. I keep missing calls unless I'm looking at the phone and see the screen light up.

Colonies vs empires played up today as well.

The sound came though the earpiece and only swapped back to the speaker for 1/2 a second while I would close the game down.

But for the last 3 hours is been working correctly again.

Very annoying considering its random as ****
[Xperia Z1 General] puneethv:

Ok sorry then i meant a other Problem. Never had this Problem yet with my Z1 neither with locked,unlocked,4.3 or 4.4 and off course then this is of no use. I think Sony have a different Audio Structure on 4.4 and the 2 Files from 4.3 was replaced by that and not forgotten, it probably just has a different name/structure now.

How do we solve this problem? I recently encountered and is getting worse...youtube is failing / audio is going through headset and etc....this sucks.

if in 1 week there is no resolve i'm going back to .136 :(

until now i tried disabling effects/chrome and still nothing. best test is make a call, hang up, go to settings->audio->volumes, move the first slider, sound will go to headset.

also I am pretty pessimistic about a new update by sony, ...i think this bug will persist at least 6 months, on .136 3 months persisted the proximity bug, and the 'speaker on' by default bug :( this sucks again.

[Xperia Z1 General] funky0308:
Any updates?

I had this problems (with sound) but now my device is working great.

No more sound bug (I added those two files from OP) and even I doubt that's the solution - don't have that annoying bug anymore.

My guess is - it's problem caused by 3rd party app, don't know which one but if we use same firmware and someone has bug and someone doesn't - that must be it.

I'm using Chrome too, so it's not Chrome.

I never use headphones, maybe that's the problem...

Are you all using headphones?

Maybe sound stay stuck when you disconnect them...

Edit:

I just tested:

Received a call

Hang up

Settings/Sounds/Volumes

Everything is still OK...

BTW - I'm not using smart connect (some users reported that sound bug was fixed after removing smart connect feature/app)
[Xperia Z1 General] albertobom:
I'm starting to think that too. It's possible a third party application that's causing this.

I use headphones and everything works as it should.

An earlier post states that might be the smart connect app. At this stage I belive people with this issue should try it out too.
[Xperia Z1 General] Wolfbreak:
I had the Issue the first Time on my Z1 yesterday and after i killed all open Apps and pressed play again on Walkman it worked normally again before it came from Earpiece, so im pretty damn sure a App is cousing this. I have removed Smart Connect now and not had the issue since but as its very random i need to test it further.
[Xperia Z1 General] fer2503:
I think that The problem Came from Smart Connect. If you disable it The problem disappears.

I tryed reboot with wiped cache and dalvik cache. A few after the sound came from earpiece again the loudspeaker. BUT just ringtone, notification and alarm sound. Music from walkman, sound from system came all, and always right from loudspeaker!

After reboot I can't indentify excatly when, 1 or 2 call after the problem is bring up.
