Hello guys, im a proud xperia l user however i am stuck on 4.2.2

I would like to ask if some one could port the kit kat applications since sony has already released the aosp it should have our precious apks right?
[Sony Xperia L] srcharged:
Will do when I'm back from exams
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
i think you can't do this on 4.2.2

just wait some time and we will have stable kitkat (no bugs) with CAFKernel and then you can use these xperia kitkat apps or any mods for kitkat

note: you can use any kitkat rom to flash kitkat apps but with many bugs...waiting is best solution:highfive:

I'm having problems on my Z1 C6902 the wifi hotspot always disconnects and i have to turn off and then on the wifi hotspot again for the PC to be able to find the network again to connect. It disconnects at random intervals not always at a given specific time and I made sure to check the settings to keep the tethering always on.

Thought it was a firmware problem but it's the same after updating it to 4.4 from 4.3 (stock firmware).

any one has the same problem and found a solution? :(

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggerouzo:
Hi

I have a Galaxy S4 mini but when someone calls they cannot hear me but I can hear them. It does work when on Speaker phone and I guess this is due to the mic on the top of the phone is used for Speaker and the one at the base is used normally. I've checked and the mic hole hasn't any fluff in there and factory reset didn't work either. The phone was purchased off of ebay recently and i'll probably end up sending it back but wondered if there is a fix i hadn't heard about yet? Does anyone know if there is an app or a way that I can switch the primary mic from the base to use the working one at the top in all situations?

thanks.

Most probably you have problems with the mic itself and ain't fixable with just firmwares.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chimpdaddy:
I'm still on a rooted 4.1.2 and have the second OTA update to 4.3 (.109) in my notifications. Rather than go through the whole flashing process, I wondered if anyone had successfully used the Survival mode in SuperSU to retain root from this point to .109?
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rootk1t:
you can try ot yourself,.but i reckon it will give you error while applying update.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chimpdaddy:
Yup, I'd read similar. I was more concerned that it would update but I'd lose root, so have to then do the full process.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjrmd:
I have a rooted 422 with su pro, The update process aborts mid way and the OS is left untouched, leaving all as it was. I am just too lazy to do the flashtool thing and all, so I left it alone.

I was able to go from 412 to 422 with the OTA and keep root.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chimpdaddy:
I know, so lazy, if I wait long enough 4.4 will come around and that might keep root!

Nobody's read a successful account of this working then? I may as well just try it and see...
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adielee:
Possibly

If you have bought Supersu pro then you could try survival mode, provided that your phone is only root and doesn't have a custom recovery installed.

I personally haven't tried it on my tablet but on other phones like G2, OTA update retains root.

If you have CWM or TWRP installed then it won't let you update.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cat McGowan:
Judging by all the posts I have read here so far, attempting to update to 4.3 via OTA will fail if your tablet's current firmware has been modified to have root access. Having SuperSU Pro installed with Install SuperSU into /system and/or Survival mode enabled does not help. I have attempted an OTA update with 10.4.B.0.577 and 10.4.1.B.0.109, and the update failed in both attempts. It's okay with me though. After reading about 4.3's bugs and seeing its UI, I don't really want to update to 4.3 anymore.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rootk1t:
you're right, but besides bugs introduced as every firmware does, some very positive tweaks were done "under the bonnet" like TRIM enabled to make less wearing of flash modules, and some performance tweaks noticeable not only in launcher, but mostly in games too.

So if you have root and recovery installed you can backup your data and install .109 prerooted firmware to evaluate it yourself.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adielee:
I would also recommend to flash a pre-rooted 4.3 from scratch for performance and less issues, but if you have a lot of apps installed and everything set up the way you want it can be a pain in the a$#.

Also the OP doesn't want to flash. But if he can it means that the OTA won't install because he has a custom recovery.

I don't see why Supersu pro with survival mode won't work for an OTA to keep root. This is provided that a you do not have a custom recovery installed. It's kind of the purpose for survival mode and if you do a search it works with most other updates with other devices (even for 4.4.2)

It may be possible that other mods may affect the OTA especially ones which were flashed or possibly xposed.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cat McGowan:
I do not have (nor do I want) a custom recovery or custom ROM installed on my XTZ. I only have root access, which I achieved by using DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit when I first received my XTZ back in May 2013. Since then, thanks to SuperSU Pro, I have updated my XTZ's firmware via OTA twice without losing root access. It is only with the last two XTZ firmware releases, 10.4.B.0.577 and 10.4.1.B.0.109, that the OTA updates fail. I suspect Sony's latest firmware releases include detection of root access, etc., which causes the update's failure to install.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chimpdaddy:
Nope

Well, I tried it, thinking the worse that could happen is that it would abandon the install, but unfortunately it went right through and upgraded to 4.3 and I lost root :(

I'd put it into OTA survival mode but not into system/apps. I had no xposed or recovery anything, just root.

So there we go. Thanks for the discussion guys, hope this is useful to someone else.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frictionbuster:
Hello, everyone.

I currently own a Nexus 5 which is serviced and handled by LG in India.

Being a flash addict, I really wanted to know, that does rooting the almighty N5 give any improvement over stock?

As a previous galaxy s3 user, I had no option but to root the laggy device. But Nexus is god-like.

So my real question is, does rooting, changing ROMs give a significant improvement over the stock-unrooted ROM?

And are the improvements so substantial so as to lose my warranty?

P.S By improvement, I mean battery and/or performance.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajjames01:
I'm running stock with Franco kernel and there is a noticeable improvement in battery life. It's worth it to me, plus it's easy to unroot and go back to stock. But really, it's up to you.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
Hello my fellow Mumbaikar :p lol

No one can tell you whether you should root it or not.. It all comes down to personal choices. That being said, by rooting a device and using a custom rom the performance/battery will surely increase but most people don't root their devices to enjoy the heavy customization which comes along with the root/custom rom.

Yes, the device is GOD as it is but if you root it, I'm sure it will be even more powerful (don't know what's above GOD like) LOL.

Warranty doesn't get void if you flash a custom rom or root the device. Google replaces rooted devices as well. Here's a thread about the same : http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/google-care-root-nexus-t2656079

However, if you're afraid of sending it as it is, you can always return to fully stock rom, remove the tamper flag and then lock the bootloader which will make the device look fresh out of the box (software wise).. :D

So read some stickies in the General section.. Check out some custom rom threads and see for yourself whether it's worth it! :cowboy:

So, you've downloaded and been blown away by the most advanced ROM on the HTC One M8 - ViperOne M8!!

Well, the fun doesn't end there! Thanks to Team Venom's powerful theme engine, you can change multiple elements of the theme on the fly - a never-before seen feature on any ROM.

Of course as with anything new, there is much confusion how this works. The aim of this thread is to clarify how to change various aspects of the theme, and unleash the full power of the Viper!

There are 2 aspects to themeing on ViperOne M8:

The built in theme engine (covering statusbar icons, Sense icons, wallpapers, fonts etc)

The full flashable theme, which completely transforms the look of your device

To some degree, the effects of these are independent. So you can change aspects of the built in theme without changing the skin, or change the skin but keep theme elements. Or even keep everything, and just change the Sense icons. The possibilities are endless.

The secret to ViperOne's stunning good looks is a combination of the above, and you can find more information on this over the next 4 posts

Please post any theme questions / issues here rather than on the main ROM thread, let's keep that clean for ROM issues.

Thank you

[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Basil3:
So you've read about the revolutionary theme engine in the ROM thread. But what exactly can you do with it? Basically, it allows you to alter some of the graphical elements on the fly, without needing to flash or even reboot.

Using Venom Tweaks, you can change the appearance of:

Statusbar icons

EQS icons

Battery icons

Sense icons

Notification shade background

App drawer background

These elements are all independent and can be changed to suit your tastes. So, you can use icons from different icon sets to mix and match your own personal theme.

But that's not all. Take a closer look at the screens where you choose statusbar themes and icon sets. You'll notice that each supported statusbar icon can be changed independently. So you like wifi icon from theme A, but battery from theme B? No problem, download both and mix it up as much as you want. You're only limited by what's available in the Hub.

And if there's some icons you want that aren't in the Hub? That's what the Venom kitchen is for.....​

Special thanks to:

jotha - for the battery Icons

:)​

​

As if the ROM wasn't customisable enough, the ROM devs have also developed the Venom theme kitchen.

Really want some statusbar icons that aren't in the Hub,or got a great idea for a set of Sense icons? Why not make it yourself and share it with others via the Venom Hub?!

We've put some themes in the Hub to get you started, but the aim is to fill it with user generated content.

We've tried to make the tutorial as easy as possible, but if you have any questions, here's the place to ask.

Post your completed themes here, with a screenshot. If the theme looks nice we will add it with credits to the venom hub, so all users can download it from there!

One thing we ask though - ideally you'd be using icons you've created yourself. If you are going to use someone's else icons, please ask them for their permission first.

We all spend a lot of our free time making these, and it's really annoying to see your work ripped off by someone else! I'm sure you'd all agree.

If you used icons from the UOT kitchen, then say so.

Happy theming!

Just wanted to say thank you for doing this! One issue I have, and maybe it's because I'm OCD or strange, is that when I select the all-black theme, the red highlight shows up in the default sms app around the text area. Kind of annoying when you have a black/blue theme for the messages.

I do see you have a voting thing going on. I'd hope to see the all black theme with a different blue (similar to your black and red theme).

Other than that, you've done a great job here and I can't say that enough. Thank you for your time on this!
