HI!

I'm using now eXistenZ 6.6.0. i've found in settings option called perfomance control that i can change voltage of CPU. and i found a "thing" its says FLASH img file as KERNEL. Can i use this to flash kernel? When i click on it show me something like file manger to choose a img file:confused:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gripfly:
Which kernel you want to flash?

I recommend you:

If stock kernel -> use like always flashtool to do that.

If custom kernel -> do it via fastboot or via recovery

the voltage control you can just use if you have flashed a custom kernel. But it's a "sensitive" thing, so just do something if you now what you are doing there.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidfreak70:
Maybe i want to flash doomkernel v22:D but i dont want to unlock my bootloader because i always FAIL:rolleyes:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gripfly:
You always fail?

Just FYI, you need a unlocked bootloader to flash a custom kernel. ;)

But if you're going to do that please do a TA-backup!

Yes i always fail... I always get ERROR:COMMAND DID NOT SECCESS":eek:

But i heard someone in xda says "locking the bootloader on a custom kernel will cause BOOTLOOP":eek:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gripfly:
Is your Z unlockable?

How do you tryed it?

Yeah, I think so. But that isn't a big deal, just flash a stock firmware and then relock the bootloader. In this way you shouldn't got in a bootloop.

navigate to the driver folder and install the fastboot and flash mode drivers.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gripfly:
hmm, ok.

Did you enter the IMEI correctly? Because if you did there a mistake, you became an inappropriate unlock key.

I installed that long time before unlocking BL. Maybe it helps if you install the sdk?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidfreak70:
I have the sdk installed. When i enter my IMEI and email and name then click submit the page show me "The IMEI or MEID must be exactly 14 characters long (remove the last character if needed)." i remove last number then click submit again then the page tell me to check my email. Aftet that i get the unlock key

agreed; I never call them when I really want to know the "facts"; I do have a inside contact in mgmt at T-Mobile, who all along admitted they weren't sure when kit kat was actually going to be out for the 2 lg phones I have..

my only point was if you are buying a phone from any of the domestic carriers in the USA, you can never really be sure when and if your OS will be updated, so if that's important to you, a unlocked, international model might be a better choice. What annoyed me was the "implied" promise of kit kat, on the G2 and the Flex from LG never actually turned out to be accurate, and, as I said, It took 6 months for kit kat to come to the Flex, which seems crazy, for their "cutting edge, top of the line" product..
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mediumsteak:
Chances are that if you are not receiving updates it is only because your carrier doesn't give a rats ass about your satisfaction. Un-branded and unlocked devices typically receive updates shortly after new versions are released by Google. The order of major manufacturers' speed in updating software goes like this:

Motorola

HTC

Samsung

LG.

I highly recommend unlocked devices if you have the money to spend. However if you a poor schmuck like me and rely on contract devices, then you can either root and flash custom ROMS (say goodbye to warranty) or suffer in eternal damnation like the damn peasants that we are (according to carriers).

Of course US Residents(Tmo,att,verzion,sprint etc..) will get updates later than the int'l version due to carriers.

As far as I know, G2 int'l version got kitkat two or three months later the Korean version got it...

I know this so well because I have been watching LG from Optimus LTE2 (Currently using)... (G G Pro G2 GFlex Gpro2) - I am Korean

Samsung and HTC used to be notorious for slow updates, now LG has the tag. With any of the new Flagships (S series, M series, G series) updates will be in line with each other. My G2 got Kit Kat on T-Mobile before my wifes HTC M7 did.

Hi all,

I'm getting my new Xperia Z2 (SO-03F) from DoCoMo. It's great but I cannot bear it without root.

After I Googled a ton and read many posts on xda, I finally knew these things:

1. root requires unlock (currently)

2. unlock will lose DRM keys (unless backing up them)

3. backup DRM keys needs root

So I'm falling in an infinite loop. How to root my device WITHOUT lossing DRM Keys? Maybe an root exploit should be found for us to backup TA before unlocking?

I think we should make a HOWTO guide of all the procedures, for the newbies (like me :)

Hi guys,

I'm new to this forum, but in the last couple of days I have read and recieved a lot of help from people on this forum and I'd like to say thanks to everyone!

So, I have a Canadian GT-N5110 Note 8. I downloaded the update file off of SamMobile since I was running the US 4.2.2 Official Rom (long story that involves me messing up a flash and having to scramble to find a Stock ROM). I went to flash it using Odin 3.09, but it kept saying that the "MD5 Hash Value was invalid" and then Odin would lock up, say it was not responding, then finally an error message saying the Binary was invalid would come up. I searched online and found a weird solution: The full file name of the ROM that I flashed is N5110XXDNE1_N5110XACDNE2_HOME.tar.md5, but to actually get it to work I had to remove the "md5" part at the end. I thought I'd share in case anyone else is having this problem!
