missed calls don't set off the notification light. Is this the same for everyone else?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bmeek:
After reading the high praise from all of these senior xda members, i thought to give this a try... But I can't seem to get a clean download of the ROM.

At least that's what I'm suspecting. flashing in TWRP (mdmower v2.7.1.3) fails after a full wipe.

Anyone else having this problem?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
Downgraded twrp. I too was having wipe problems on 2.7.1.3
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bmeek:
The install script didn't like my freshly-wiped /system ?

Thanks. I did get it to work with TWRP v2.7.1.3 BETA. I had noticed that after the message that the install script was skipping the MD5 check, it appeared to simply hang. When I just let it sit for a long time, I eventually received some error about accessing /system. Prior to flashing and getting the error on two attempts, I had manually wiped chache, data and system. I tried again, coming from my current cm11 setup, this time only doing TWRP's "factory reset" (leaving the cm11 ROM in place on /system). The Vanilla install script again appeared to hang for several minutes, but had proceeded to complete normally when I came back to check on it.

Indeed this is a vanilla AOSP ROM. I don't generally like a variety of trivial mods, but I do like to see the remaining battery percentage on the status bar instead of the thick default battery icon. Any way to set this simple option without xposed or gravity box?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
Simple, yes. But time consuming. Essentially you have to unpack the systemUI and edit the battery images. All 200 of them...0-100 for both drain and charging...

Sent from my Lunar Ecliptic One.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bmeek:
Thank you. I'm looking for the text-only battery charge percentage - no new battery icons at all. I believe cm11 lets you choose "None" under battery icons. Does that simplify things (or make it less tedious)?

My phones finds be cut off for a while. I have root. Can I tunnel to a proxy and gain data that way?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razor411:
Do you mean a proxy, installed in your local network? If so yes, if not the proxy is also located in the internet somewhere and you need data to get there.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hammerdroid:
That's what I'm trying to establish, is data by going around the provider... Cuz you know they maintain a data connection to the phone but it's just for their purposes, so I'm thinking there's gotta be a way to slip around them using 'bypass ISP' command from the crossbreeder mod, then a tunnel VPN to a proxy I have setup on another network... It seems to me that it should be doable... It's the 'how' that's got me tripping up.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edwardbeer:
I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but I think you use that :

"CrossBreeder now includes the bypass censor functionality. This allows you to circumvent DNS based censors as used by most authoritarian countries. This basically works by bypassing your ISP's DNS servers and querying the 2 Google DNS servers and 2 L3 DNS servers only. These are usually faster anyway, more so due to the caching and parallelizing nature of the query. Thus if your ISP is blocking websites without telling you, you have a way out if this. You can enable it using the following command:

su -c "/system/etc/CrossBreeder/ENABLE_BYPASS_ISP""

So you bypass your ISP's DNS, and you want bypass all DATA from your ISP...if I understand... A simple way would be a VPN based on openVPN...but you don't need proxy, the data in the VPN will not be readable for the ISP... Another is to use just...a HTTPS-Proxy, or SOCKS (for android, I launch shadowsocks on my server).

Hope that can help you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razor411:
But even if you use a VPN or anything similar, you still need access to the ISPs network. And if the access is blocked completely you also cant connect to the vpn.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dcdivenut:
This is a dumb question I am sure...

I am getting a new phone from Cingular warranty since the touch screen stopped working on my current one. I am guessing I will get a new phone and swap in my SIM card. I am guessing they will send me a unit with 2.25 loaded on it.

I have been running summiters ROM (2.3) and really like it but I have a few questions...

1. Do I need to CID unlock the new phone or is this controlled by the SIM card? If I do, from what I have caught up with on the boards, I can no longer use Lokiwiz , so what do I do? I found a post from Faria http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=47848&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

that talks about downgrading, unlocking and then upgrading again but it seems to have mixed results.

2. Assuming that I solve #1 are there any challengers to Summitters 2.3 with CF2 + multiinstaller for folks on Cingular? I don't see any up.

3. Possible most important... Do I need to reflash my old phone to what it was shipped with or the official 2.25 so I don't have problems with the return. I am doing this all via mail so I wouldn't think they would check, but figured someone here had done this before.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Cardcaptor_RLH85:
As far as number one is concerned, you do have to CID unlock your new phone. The CID information is on the phone not the SIM card. Also, I didn't have any trouble downgrading from 2.25 in order to follow the directions in the post that you linked there. I had to do it when I had my phone's mainboard replaced.

For question number two, summiters AKU 2.3 ROM still seems to be the latest ROM out there for us Cingular folks.

Lastly, for number three, it couldn't hurt to flash back to an official ROM. I didn't have any problems when I had a summiter ROM on my phone when I sent it in for service (the USB port was broken so I couldn't reflash), however it's better to be safe than sorry ^_^
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dcdivenut:
Thanks for the reply... should get it tomorrow and hopefully all will go well.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
seems like everything has been answered, but i do want to add to question #3... I would flash back to an official rom, techinically according to the warranty process any rom that is not an official rom does void the warranty. So i would flash it back to an original rom before sending back. Im not saying they check, but i would hate to send back my phone with an un-official rom and get stuck with a $400 bill for a phone thats not in my possesion anymore...

I have a problem regarding my power system, I don't know what it is but my phone only works when I plug it into my laptop, it doesnt work on wall chargers and I did try few wall chargers. I have replaced the battery but result is still the same.

I tried your method but now my XZ doesn't wanna start at all, even on laptop, which was the only way to operate it.

After soldering those two points, my XZ only flashed a white screen for a second and then dies, when I tried to turn it on, it shows SONY for a second and then it dies again ...

Flashtool still can recognize it tho .... and I did flashed its original firmware, but then again, it still does not want to start ..

Don't forget that the sale of goods act covers us in the UK. Your phone might still be eligible for free repair.

Look into it before dismantling it and definitely voiding your warranty.

Edit - Here's an (oldish) article about your rights in the UK. Also, if you unlocked your bootloader your warranty IS NOT voided.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticklefish:
Ah, a fellow countryman. Excellent!

I could always try unrooting my phone as that definitely does kill my warranty. To be honest, I was thinking about taking it down to my local Carphone Warehouse. They offer a repair service and I've always found them to be helpful.

The stores near here are staffed with nerds which is just perfect for an old modder like me..:o
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
It being rooted will cause them to try to tell you it voids your warranty, but flashing, rooting and bootloader unlocking etc does not void warranty for hardware defects in all EU member states and that includes us here in the UK. Here's some information on that.

If I were you I would flash back to stock and quote the sale of goods act at the retailer. They are bound by law to repair or replace at no cost to you. :)

Excuse me while I suppress a shudder at having a...a...stock phone..

That's not a bad idea. I'll download Emma, go back to you-know-what, and try taking it in tomorrow. Watch this space!

I was curious about using the Sale Of Goods Act. It's clearly not fit for purpose if it won't last the full length of the contract. It certainly wouldn't be the first Sony phone I've had that went wrong after a year.

And yet, I'll still get a Z4 when it comes out. I think I may be a fanboy...:eek:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
I believe we also have a 2 year statutory warranty in the UK now. While flashing etc doesn't legally void your warranty, I find it best to not give a retailer any reason to try and deny you your rights.

My advice : Flash back to stock and if your bootloader is unlocked, relock and restore your TA partition if you can. Then take the phone in and ask for it to be repaired under warranty.

Good luck! :)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticklefish:
Just to update you, I took my phone down to Carphone Warehouse the other day and it's currently with Sony.

I couldn't flash it back to stock, I couldn't get it to stay in flash mode for long enough. So probably the USB port is dodgy as well as the battery. Hey ho..:eek:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Hopefully they will just repair it in warranty as it's clearly a hardware error not caused by anything software related. If not, push them to explain how software damaged the hardware. If they can't, then they must repair or replace it for free. Your local trading standards office will be able to advise.

Good luck. :)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticklefish:
I did, yes. I picked it up late last week, almost a month after dropping it in to be repaired. Sony ended up giving me a whole new handset.

Which is pretty exciting, really. After a month of using my previous, tiny, handset, this feels so huge and powerful!

Sony didn't complain about my phone being rooted, or the bootloader being unlocked. They just took it, replaced it and that was that. It's got to be said I am impressed!

Well that Carphone Warehouse saying that they are not going to repair my non charging phone due to "modified software"

They have offered a "paid fix" at £169 though I believe that is effectively them just swapping it for a new one.

they didn't even send it to Sony to get checked though surely they must have had power put through it to check the "modified software"

No amused at the moment.

Perhaps its time to send it to Sony directly.

grrrr.....
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
They can't deny warranty on hardware defects due to the software being modified. We have a 2 year statutory warranty in the UK and that isn't voided unless you do something that specifically causes the defect yourself.

See my post here with the relevant EU directive that has been adopted into our Sale of Goods Act.

Threaten with Trading Standards if they won't repair/replace at their expense.

kingvortex, ive seen your post and used the information it links to today when quoting to the girl on the phone at carphone.

however, at the moment I'm unsure whether to pursue carphone warehouse to fix this under warranty or to just go to SONY directly.

I have a feeling that I might have better luck with SONY.

Apparently my phone is back in the branch to collect so I suppose I could do either.

I didn't give the girl a hard time as she's just working in a call centre and not directly responsible for the repair but she gave me an example when I asked what modified software had to do with it not charging.

She said that it needed to be in its original condition before they would look at it.

She gave me an example that it I retuned a phone with a cracked screen that was not charging because of a faulty charging port that they would not repair the port under warranty until the screen was sorted.

It was a t that point a figured I was fighting a looinsg battle and wouldn't be able to get her to side with me :)

Has anyone had any preferable experience with either SONY or carphone?

Cheers,

John.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Her example doesn't hold up legally. It's your device and you can put whatever software you want on there. It's impossible that the software caused damage to the charging circuit or whatever is causing your issue, therefore they are compelled by law to repair or replace at no cost to you. No amount of talking about the phone being in its original condition etc changes that. If you had obviously dropped it, opened it up or otherwise physically damaged it then that would be different, but you haven't.

You could contact Sony and see what they say, but the responsibility is legally with the retailer that sold you the device.

Call CPW again and ask to speak to a manager if they continue to fob you off.

Sent from my C6603
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticklefish:
I would personally just stick with Carphone Warehouse.

They have a legal obligation to provide you with a product that's 'Fit For Purpose'. If your phone doesn't charge, and it's still within a 'reasonable timespan' (i.e. the manufacturers warranty), then Carphone Warehouse have a legal duty to either repair or replace it. It is your 'Statutory Right'.

If either Carphone Warehouse or Sony can prove that the fault is caused by a modification that you made yourself, then they are not required to do anything about it. If they can not, then they are.

If you're having trouble, ask to speak to a manager. Be calm and civil (nothing makes a retail worker less keen to help you than a bad attitude) and just state your case. Quote the Trading Standards Act and the things I mentioned in inverted commas above ('like this') and don't be afraid to get the Citizens Advice Bureau involved.

If you read my earlier posts, you can see that Carphone Warehouse and Sony can be very good at repairing a modded device. You just have to stick to your guns. :)

Let us know how it goes!
