Can you make a Screenshot of the box? So then we can better help you :) if you want know that you have a original Samsung phone, unplug your battery and then you will see on the back page of your phone the product model, serial number, IMEI etc.

Hi all, after the format my nexus 5, i lost all configuration (of course), upfdate again all apps, included "google searh" at the version 3.2.17, the hotword "ok google" has stopped working. I performed the procedure linked in this topic http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2649349 but unlike what was done before, now no longer works.

The file to edit is displayed in Chinese, although I have started a research as a guide, I solved this by changing the encoding in Chinese simple but just save the changes still does not work.

Sorry for my bad english, and thx all ;)
[Xperia Z2 General] kbadone:
Hi All,

Is anybody aware that Clove offers a pre-shipping testing service for brand new smartphones for £20.00? I came across this page few days ago and it looks like a good idea to buy it before the Z2 ships out in May, at least it saves me from worrying about receiving a defective unit!

What do you guys think? do you recommend getting it specially for us importers! :good:

Here is the link with full service description

http://www.clove.co.uk/smartphone-pre-shipping-testing-service
[Xperia Z2 General] gavinfabl:
Whilst I am in the UK, that seems like a really good idea.
[Xperia Z2 General] kbadone:
I decided to get it! I just emailed them to add the service to my Z2 pre-order. I think it's worth it. If I received the phone from them with any defect I'm gonna end up paying more than $40 to ship it back, better be safe than sorry when it comes to international orders...
[Xperia Z2 General] robertkoa:
Yes-

I think they check the phone over and since they are

unsealed anyway I am hoping to get a Z3 Compact IF they check the Camera for clarity, no pink sppt,

AND get me a loud speaker set-some Z3s are loudee than others.
[XPERIA X8 General] NCC-34051-E:
Hello xdadevelopers.. I recently tried unlocking the bootloader on second X8 phone.. I successfully managed to unlock it.. but I've accidentally removed the battery after it boot up.. I'm not getting any sign of life or such.. I tried powering up normally, no results, tried booting up the flashmode, green LED doesn't appear, tried to connect it on my USB cable, no response, tried charging it with normal cable (No USB cable).. no results.. :/

Is there any way to unbrick it without sending it to SE service? Please help.. :rolleyes:

P.S. It's date is 11W44 (I managed to unlock my bootloader below 11W44 I think, will check my phone for release date)
[XPERIA X8 General] cascabel:
No. Not really. You need to send it to sony. There are a lot of warnings here regarding unlocking bootloaders of devices 11w29 and up.
[XPERIA X8 General] NCC-34051-E:
So that means the hardware is damaged after unlocking the loader? And I'm not sure if SE service still has options to repair X8 since it's old phone and it's production has stopped.. :/
[XPERIA X8 General] cascabel:
Not 100% sure, but i don't think it's the hardware in as much as it's not really "damaged." based on what i've read from members that had sony reppair their devices, it seems that the motherboard is replaced. But those who know claim that jtag can fix it.

Edit: try to search around for people who are knowledgeable on jtag and maybe they can fix it.
[XPERIA X8 General] NCC-34051-E:
Yeah.. I've read about jtag and riff box moments ago.. It seems the flash memory is corrupted.. unable to reflash it again.. Since it was my friend's phone (I borrowed him my so I can try to update his phone to cyanogen mod), I've successfully lost my phone, oh well.. I might buy better one in the future I hope.. Thanks for the help!
[XPERIA X8 General] cascabel:
Good luck. Hope it gets fixed. :)

I have used all drivers and two different tot files, and it works to reboot, then it fails when I try to get past the first welcome screen... Does it make a difference if the sim card is in or out???

It makes it to preactivation and set phone name, then a second or two later goes back into the reboot stage.

I made it to the settings screen and phone info, and all areas were UNKNOWN
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
I don't know what went wrong but since you don't have a reply I'll say this... I would start from scratch. Download the tot file AND dll again to a new place on your PC (like desktop). Run LG flash tool again and browse to those 2 files (flash tools likes to remember previous settings). Flash again and let us know the result. Sim card doesn't make a difference.

http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/LS980/Stock_Firmware if you need it, always flashed reliably for me.
[Sprint LG G2] pitbull8265:
...

Ive done this.. no luck
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Did you get anywhere with this? Under status, is your IMEI listed as unknown? This seems like your efs partition might be messed up. Did you make a backup of it?
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
I just read elsewhere that if you used ioroot you may have a backup anyways. On the computer in ioroot. You may find a couple files called, modem st1, and modem st2.

Hopefully they will speak of it. Watch this thread..,.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51932057

[MENTION=4290888]scottdanpor[/MENTION] for the info and hopefully how to use it.
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Yeah but he has basically access to download mode and fastboot it seems. I haven't found a way to push files without at least recovery :confused:

Well, if he has access to stock recovery should be able to push files that way through ADB
[Sprint LG G2] pitbull8265:
NOPE

it just hangs and reboots still... cant access fastboot.. tried every file available nothing is working
[Sprint LG G2] pitbull8265:
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I have a recovery I made using twrp saved to my pc, and I chose the option to backup my efs, so all of my info is on my pc in the backup file.

HOW can I use adb sideload or ADB to push it to my phone???

HAS TO BE DONE FROM STOCK RECOVERY ADB, as i cant even get into the ui long enough to activate usb debugging
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
It will take a bit of reading but you will learn a lot!

Here's a guide with some commands, you just need to tailor it to your needs/paths, it says Samsung but all you need are the commands.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2141817

If you have ioroot on your computer you have ADB. Plug in your phone in recovery mode and check device manager. It's probably under "unknown" as LG-LS980. You need to right-click and select "update driver", then manually select driver. From the list, you should be able to find something like Android composite ADB device. Select that one and it should then be recognized as ADB.

Hold Shift and right click on the ioroot folder and select "Open command window here", then in cmd type "adb devices". If all is good you will get a serial number as it detects your device. Once you got this you are ready to enter commands, check that guide for the right command to push the file to: /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/

as stated by Autoprime here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2451390

I hope that's enough info to get you going. You should type "adb shell" first in ADB so you have access to root.

---------- Post added at 09:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 AM ----------

Oh crap... I just re-read that. I don't think this will work if your backup is from TWRP. That needs to be restored from TWRP. Do you not have a backup from ioroot? That contains the img files you need.

---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

Ok, I found this...

"Even though all TWRP backup files carry the extension .win, they are either tar archives or filesystem images. System, data, cache and .android_secure are backed up as tar archives or gnu-zipped tar archives if compression is enabled. You can rename those .win files to .tar (.tar.gz if compressed) and extract them like a regular archive. Boot and recovery partitions are backed up as .img files using dd"

from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1694617

I couldn't find out if TWRP backs up EFS to .tar or .img. Once you figure that out you should be able to rename them to modemst1.img and modemst1.img. I just verified on mine that the files are the same size, so I would guess they are actually img files and not compressed. They should be 3MB in size.

There's a lot more info in that thread by Autoprime that should help.

[Android Apps and Games] pumu1989:
Hello everybody,

I recently developed my first Android-Game, called SimulSnake. It is based on the classical Snake-Game, but now you have to play two Snake-Games simultaneously.

The object of each level is to reach the given target score by scoring on both sides. Additionally there is a timer on each side and you have to score before the corresponding timer terminates. That sounds difficult at first, but you will improve soon. You steer the snakes by simply tapping in the corresponding direction.

There are 30 unlockable levels, increasing in their difficulty. Furthermore there is a level editor to create your own levels.

SimulSnake is free, so check it out and if you like it, feel free to recommend it! :)

I'm also happy about every feedback, either positive or negative!

You can find it in Google Play by searching for "SimulSnake" or here:

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kretzmer.game.simulsnake (unfortunately I'm not able to post a link)

Thanks, Kevin!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow 59:
Hello all

I have few questions :

I have one atrix 4g. Yesterday,when i bought it(not new)it had cm10.2 4.2.2 epinter

The problem with it was that it didn't charged to 100.it was stuck at 66%

Today i flashed cm10 4.1.2 superlite

now it's at 98 %.

1.Was that a software problem,or it's because my battery is not original,it's replacement?

When i use it,the phone feels warm,and that's not because i hold it in my hand.same happens on desk.it gets cold pretty fast.

I had an HD2, which too,when using it,it was getting warm.Until one day,when i was playing for ~ 3 hours,(Offroad Legends :D ) and it died.BGA failure.dead.

2.I'm afraid that same thing can happen to Atrix,so i didn't installed games.

What are your oppinions about that?Can it die like htc? (at hd2 heating problems are very common)

Thank you for future answers
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andresrivas:
Hi! Welcome!

Those subjects has been covered already, I will summarize what I know, but a search might give you more info.

Cm10.2 is highly experimental. It's kernel gets a lot of updates and regressions.

Beign such a powerful (for it's time) device and the lack of optimizations, it will run HOT. I wouldn't advice to use it for too long, it will kill it.

The battery percentages are due to a crappy reading method. Mine wont pass beyond 80% at full charge. There is a battery fix app here that will try to correct the lecture but in my case, I must "fix" it every time.

Hello comunity,

A have a Q for you. :)

Our beloved phone began (a long time ago) to show his age. After a lot of ROM swiches, based on the stable base, for stability or the newest versions of CM/AKOP/ASOP etc. I reached a point where I'm tired to try every week something new, and I search for a stable, slim ROM, with performance tweaks (to make this old phone to be somewhat responsive) and wait with him for my GS2 to have his last breaths, before I put him in a museum :D.

Any sugestions?

Now i tried flashing cm10.2 by dirty developer and it says "e: can't open /sdcard/cm-10.2-20131216-DirtyDev-trebon.zip" if someone could give me a working backup (cwm 6.0.3.3) i could try to restore it.

You mean, "stock like" ?? Since it is impossible to build a stock ROM without sources of Sony libs.

I think you should wait for a more stable version of the AOSX before attempting. Even Sony stock 4..4 apps are not available until Z2 is launched. Only some pre-release apps are available from the Z2 dump. So better wait.
