Just checked my battery and the bottom of mine is different to both of them lol. I know mine is genuine because it came with my phone when i bought it from a phone shop in the uk. Mine is a very old battery so probably will buy new one too soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -MaoR-:
lol...

Can you try and find it on google? From here: https://www.google.com/search?q=i90...jA0QX0yoHoAQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1920&bih=951

You have a regular I9000, right?

Also my new battery is 4.123V~ while 100% charged and my old one is 4.07~. That's good, right?

Thanks!

Hi all,

This thread seeks to get answers to my questions as I am trying to get a particular rom on my phone.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2544474

Many thanks in advance.

1) My phone is in stock condition. What are the requirements? Do I need rooted access?

2) Step 2 should be interpreted as wipe data and cache, correct?

3) How do I install the .zip file? Where do I put it and do I need to run some software on PC or is it done entirely on my phone?

4) Is there something I should back up? I am not talking about settings, pics etc. Rather about some stuff like original ROM or I don't know what.

Lastly, the download links seem unavaible due to high traffic lately. Could anyone, in case he or she has the file, upload it somewhere else?

Thank you ver much! :cowboy:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benni_1994:
I hope I can help you a lttle bit :)

1) You need a custom Recovery (e.g ClockworkMod). Root access is not needed if you dont want do backup your apps and data. You can flash the CWM recovery via Odin from a PC.

2/3) If you have installed your Custom Recovery, download the Rom zip file and place it on your sdcard where you can find it.

Before you install it make a factory reset in the recovery. Then install the rom zip.

4) It is always a good idea to backup your original rom. You can also do that in the custom recovery.

If you have more questions you can send me a private message and I can provide you a step for step guide :)

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ali Zubair:
Root is not required, Just flash Custom recovery with odin, make backup of origional rom and flash your custom rom which you will place on sd card or internal sotrage.

Note: Make efs backup....use efs professional for samsung devices

I think people going overboard "debloating" and or freezing/uninstalling to much with TB

Anywho you could try to use 7zip and extract the apk from a flashable Rom

Hoping this helps :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rezadue:
Thanks for the responses. This has nothing to do with de-bloat or even missing APKs.

I have been using YKK's 4.3 TW Note 3 ported ROM, and his ROM only has the Note version of s-Notes which does not have speech recognition and formula match in it.

I would like to grab the APK from the stock ROM S-Note and see if I can install and use it with his ROM. That is all. :)

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain Sweatpants:
Not sure about their other phones but the xperia range have disabled fastboot and no bootloader unlock I found that out the hard way

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kealke:
It's not disabled on the entire xperia range at all... http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/

You do have to have a sim unlocked phone, true, but it is absolutely possible to unlock the bootloader.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] napster100:
Kudos to you my friend, thanks for providing that link, the Sony Xperia SP dose have an unlockable bootloader... 7th one up from the bottom of the provided list here http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/supported-devices

Does unlocking the bootloader make the phone sim free? I don't think it does but I just want to clarify this. Thanks.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kealke:
No, you need a phone without simlock to unlock the bootloader via the sony site.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] napster100:
I'm screwed both ways then haha, since there's no free unlocking solutions... Any idea how the sim lock bit works? There must be a way to unlock for without needing to purchase a code since its done by software, it's not like a hardware component need putting in or taken out.

Well, I'll buy my code if needs be, but I may buy another that's sim locked and have a play around :) see what I can find.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain Sweatpants:
I know the SP has an unlockable bootloader but I'm specifically talking about the xperia range locked to the EE network. All sim free xperia and a few of the simlocked ones can be unlocked but I mean none of the EE locked devices can have their bootloader unlocked. The only solution is to get Sony to remove the motherboard and reflash the TA partition and last time I checked they wouldn't even admit it was possible. A sim unlock code will not change the bootloader status.

Hi all,

Just got a M500 for work needs...

Wanted to upgrade the ROM to the newest available 1.13 or 1.12 tmob rom, as its on an old one, but I have been informed on modaco that the m500 has a diff ID code, so I was wondering if its safe to flash a MDA Compact rom to the M500?

I know how to remove device codes etc, its just I want to make sure it is compatible, and not turn the unit into a brick...

Did have a search but couldn't find the right answer...

So has anyone put a mda compact rom, or 1.13 on a m500?

Cheers all

have seen the treads on upgrading to 1.13 etc, happy to go ahead only if i know it wont bork my m500... would i need to transfer the id code from the old rom to a new one?

No matter what you do... you will always be 4-6 months from what manufacturers and the carriers would have you believe is 'obsolescence'. Much like the megapixel race (which is laughable), and 4G -eewhisyouneedthis, most of it is the marketing team and peers making you think you need it. I spent tons of graphics cards for my PC's before I finally realized the chase never ends, and that I should research and settle on something for more than 8 months.

I won't be chasing that rabbit...

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] SXUsr:
Sony would be a lot more profitable if they didn't insist on flooding the market with numerous but similar spec variations of essentially the same device. I'm gutted that they've brought the Vaio to an end and would be sad to see the Xperia go down the same track.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] emilic:
I think sony do the big profit in the first 2 month ish... after 2-3 month the phone profit goes down to a not as big one and of course Sony cares only of the big profit. So I can see why thy to what they do... more when u take into account all the other phone makers that are putting out their devices at different times. Good way for Sony to compete against the others.

Just wonder about quality control and development costs...
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] SXUsr:
That's what I'm referring to, they would be better off with 3 or 4 models every year, compact, budget, mid range and high end.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] TheQwertiest:
Actually.... No. =)

I can agree, if we are talking about Z2 (which has to compete with the new Samsung S5, HTC New One and etc), but it's different with Z1c. Z1 Compact is one-of-the-kind. It has literally no competitors in it's High-End-Portable niche on the market. So, IMO, it's kinda counter-productive to dish out another Compact in such a short period of time since Z1c release. :\
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] trewelu:
While I won't buy the Z2 compact (and maybe even skip the Z3 compact), I just hope they keep the size the same as z1 compact. I want a small phone, not a smaller phone (which will grow in size if flagships increase in size). I once said to my friend, it's ironic when the so called "minis" (and compact) is so much larger than my non "mini" phone (was using, xperia ray, I guess that made my ray "micro" :p) and about the same size as xperia s/galaxy s2 which is a "normal" sized phone

ps: I know that mini actually means smaller version and not small in manufacturer definition. I just dislike the trend.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] emilic:
Well let's just note that the news of the FCC are not necessarily for the z2 compact but for the Sony z2 2f or Japanese version of the z2 compact... so time wise we should add two to three months more for the z2c starting from the release date of the Japanese version.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] cc546:
How is 4.5" compact? The Z1 Compact is already not compact at all because of the bezel. I said they should make the phone smaller not bigger, but apparently Sony don't understand.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Venekor:
Well they could easily fit a 4.5 inch screen and make the bezels smaller.

I fully expect a Z2 compact come the end of the year, but not in a few months.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] alex_hk90:
Completely agree. While I think the Z1 Compact is great, if anything I would prefer it to be slightly smaller - maybe a 4.1" or 4.2" (at most) screen with reduced bezel/hard capacitive buttons would be perfect. If Z2 'Compact' has a 4.5" screen then I certainly wouldn't be interested in upgrading.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] bilboa1:
if you read sony forums everyone is begging for a bigger display/phone. I'd almost think these guys are fake competitor accounts, since it makes no sense. the regular Z2 is great for a larger display. It's not like you need 5.2, 5.1, 5.0, 4.9, ... displays

4.2/no bezels would be cool :P (also, its probably never going to happen...)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] fade2black101:
I think the main concern seems to be the bezel. Looking at something like the Moto X its clear the screen could be 4.5 or even 4.7 while maintaining a similar size without those massive bezels.

Personally I'd like to see 4.3 with little bezel or 4.5 with little bezel. Even 4.7 is possible if they minimize bezel ala LG G2. I've actually got a Note 2 so I'm sure the size will be much more managable regardless of bezel or not though! Just sort of feels like wasted space though.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] tndb:
Keep in mind that z1 compact has the largest battery in this size and is waterproof ontop of it. Choosing between small bezel or big battery + waterproof id go with the latter everytime...

The z1c already is too big, I had a moto RAZR I before that, that was a nice form factor (not that I want it back, but this part of it, they did very well).

I still intend to keep my Z1 Compact for at least a year. So... I guess I'll be getting the Z3 Compact then?

I hope the screen stays at 4.3 inch. I still want a nice ppi.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Walter_White:
Well, I am looking at returning my Z1c (which I only got today).

Right when unpacking it I noticed the screen is even a bit smaller than my HTC One S. The visible, usable area measures in at 4.24". On my old phone it was a tiny bit more, but it never wasted screen real estate on the soft navbar, it had dedicated.

So initially it felt weird. Nothing one would not get used to, but on the other hand, I want the BIGGEST phone my hands can handle (complete one handed operation, even pull down status bar without rearranging the phone grip). That is my perfect phone.

So, yeah, basically I'd love to have a Z1c with a screen resembling the newer LG models. I guess that would be 4.75 or close to that in the current case form factor. It seems like a pipedream, I don't think Sony will get rid of the ENTIRE bezel, it seems to be a common denominator in terms of design. So, yes, I am going to buy the 4.5.

Guess similar arguments can be made form other people in favor of 4.1" or even 3.9" screen. It's hela subjective, but if you spend that amount on a phone it should be damn near perfectly fitted to you, so I can see why Sony is pushing these devices with just minor changes into the market.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] idimitro:
Actually if you are following the news you will find out that the market is behaving exactly the opposite of what you are suggesting.

If we exclude Apple, in the Android world, Samsung is flooding the market with similarly speced devices and it is successful and on the other hand HTC is releasing a few devices per year and it is barely alive.

Sony can release as many devices as they wish. I am happy with my Compact for the next few years. (any it is too heavily modded to sell it now :eek:)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] emilic:
I hear ya but even Samsung only releases once a year their main phone... the other ones are different models or sub models that have less specs...

Now sony is coming with 2 main models z1 and z1 compact plus a bunch a lowered ones. And not even 6 months after there are new coming out...

I mean it is the world we live in and maybe part of the android war... but I do wonder how "new" is the phone we get actually when 6 month later they can come up with a newer edition (fully tested qualified etc...)

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] fade2black101:
Everyone has different needs. I'd personally prefer a slightly bigger screen given the size rather than so much bezel, which is probably a neccessary evil to make it waterproof and have a bigger battery.

---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 PM ----------

HTC used to release just as many phones as Samsung which rhey were critisized for which certain sections of tech world attribured to their downfall.

You could argue having a "Galaxy" line was better for marketing than what HTC were doing. They are now trying to rectify it with a "One" line.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Walter_White:
Let us not forget that a brands succes in this market is not only drfined but a great product line, good marketing, support, funds for development etc. These days in this sector it is mandatory to have an insanley high legal defense fund. I fear this may have attributed to HTCs downfall a bit as well.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] :
Is Sony going to revise the Z1C and call it a "new" phone? If this is what it's going to be, I don't think many people will upgrade. I upgrade about every six months, but I always go for a clear, specific improvement over what I have. That's not going to happen over such minor improvements.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Option58:
They are not coming with two main models, they are coming with one main model. They literally ask you "Sir, do you want 4.3inch or 5inch version of Xperia Z1?". 4.3 Z1 is too small for someone, and yet 5inch Z1 is too big for someone. They complete each other.

And I agree, flagship should be released once in a year :) And in the rest of the year company should focus on rest of their phone line-up (feature-phones, compacts, good mid rangers and other things) and making of the next flagship to be perfect.

There are really two options for manufacturers:

1. +Thin phone, small bezel, max screen size possible, lightweight phone, LOW COST TO BUILD!.

- Very bad drop tolerance, plastic and cheap feel. (Yeah you guessed Galaxy S4)

2. +Great when dropped, premium feel, GOOD waterproof, great battery.

- People complaining about not small bezel and thickness.

I chose second option and Sony gave me that. In my opinion people should know how to appreciate a good built product and not to appreciate cheap but false looking good one.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Option58:
I really don't believe that's a Z2 Compact, maybe some other Xperia...

If that's true it'll be a huge disappointment.

PS: We really don't need 3GB ram, Snapdragon 801 over 800 but if you put it in Z2 please put it in Z2 Compact as well.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Teleman07:
i really hate the softkeys, narrow screen, plastic feel and the stupid lock key of z1c. My previous LG O3D feels premium in hand compared to this. The selling point of this device to me was the small screen (did not expect it to be this much, i mean my O3D is 4.3 too but just put them side by side...), performance and waterproofing.

Well the only reason i did not return it, is because i no longer have to hassle with wet towels and alcohol before i go to bed and put my phone under my pillow. I just use it along with the soap bar, clean it thoroughly and throw it on to the bed. Done.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] paddylaz:
Someone needs to explain to you what aspect-ratios are. One would've thought someone of average+ intelligence would've checked on these little things before buying the phone and then being disappointed by what they receive.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Teleman07:
I obviously know about aspect ratios, just did not come here saying the damn aspect ratio of 9:16 actually feels narrow and small compared to 4:3 thus befuddling people who is not average+ intelligence... Besides i assume you already know that the screen is actually 4.27 not 4.3

I just did not know that such a small difference would grow on me this much. Besides i did away with the soft keys and am a bit more happy now.
