The problem is that the kernel built in the rom is still based on 4.4.2, don't know why, but in future we hope this issue will be solved. For now you have diffrerent solutions:

1) You can flash a custom kernel, like ak kernel, franco..

2) you can flash this wifi fix http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53132436&postcount=6487

3) someone says that flashing the stock boot.img by google will solve the issue, but I personally haven't tried..

[General Omni Discussion] Entropy512:
Sorry about that one. Normally, after an update like this, the kernel, device tree, and blobs are merged all at once when a maintainer has time.

But someone merged the device tree changes without telling anyone else and didn't merge kernel/blobs. I saw no blob/kernel changes and assumed no device tree changes, so was scratching my head trying to figure out why things broke until I finally looked and noticed that the device tree HAD been merged.

(I have been extremely busy the past week so didn't have time to look at it for a while.)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] lostangelintx:
I work in the country. We have VERY poor data out here. I have decent speed at home (15MBPS) but very poor data out here. With my step-son on the plan with us, the data is an issue most months anyway.

Anyhow, back to the problem. I had the round sync symbol on my phone all day yesterday. Went away at home on wi-fi. Well, it's back on there today. It seems to be really sucking the battery down.

Is there anywhere that I can go (//settings/apps or something?) that will show me what is synching?

Also, the satellite symbol is there as well, when this is going on.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Go to Settings>Accounts & sync, and you can see what app is synching.

And when you are saying "satellite symbol", do you mean the notification icon that looks like a radar dish? If so, that is the GPS icon. If its popping up when synching, it might be Maps or Location that is the culprit, or other app that uses GPS location. If GPS is on, that icon will usually pop up whenever an app that uses GPS is started up.

Hi everyone,

I'm in a bit of a pickle so if anyone could help me out i'd really appreciate it! Yesterday I was trying to root my E400 but first had to change the firmware. I tried to change it using KDZ and got an error. When I tried it again my phone would only boot into 'Emergency Mode'. I've made sure that I have the right firmware file and am now not sure how to fix it. :(

I've tried disabling the modem in device manager and have also tried using the LG Mobile Support Tool, but when it reaches the software writing stage it pauses at 4% then comes up with an error saying 'Upgrade stopped due to an error'.

I don't know what to try next and hope I haven't permanently bricked it.

If anyone can help me out i'll owe you big time! :)

Thanks,

Jenny

:/

so

if, you try with kdz what happens?

how did u try to root ur phone?

i suggest yo to do as following:

1-remove battery ad re-enter it

2-unistall drivers or things reguarding the phone and then reinstall them

3-retry with kdz making sure you firstly disabled modem
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobocobo:
Thanks for the quick reply! I didn't get to root my phone because first I needed to change the firmware. Now because my phone is stuck in Emergency Mode, I select Emergency in kdz and choose the original firmware, then it runs for a while and I eventually get an error message saying Wparam: 100 LParam : 1010, nothing seems to have changed and it's still stuck in emergency mode. Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers doesn't seem to be helping and I've also disabled the modem to no avail. :(
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PyroV:
Try something else

If I remember well you must choose DIAG mode in kdz tool, and in my opinion fabric rom V10m is best for unbricking.

At first connect phone to computer in emergency mode, launch device manager and check if there's a modem (LGEsomething), if it is = uninstall it. Then as I said earlier, run kdz as administrator, DIAG mode and flash with stock rom. I hope it will work ;)

And sorry if there are mistakes in my english language :p

3.Does it require a kernel?

4.And how do I make it work?

5.Give me instructions how to fix it?

If it doesn't work give me a issue.

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 PM ----------

Mobocobo, the problem is that you didn't perform a hard reset.

Hard Reset is like a Factory Reset but more advanced. (so this must work 4 u)

Works for me.

So first u must flash stock via KDZ flasher (has more chances if u flash your own carrier) :)

Boot your phone into Emergancy Mode. Open KDZ flasher ,select phone mode: DIAG , and after its done.

Pull the battery out of your phone.Unplug your phone from PC.(wait 5 seconds)Return the battery.(And read this part before u do it)

Don't push power button (or else u want to do this again).Now hold Power +Volume UP and Down until it shows the LG boot logo. Quickly release the power button.After few seconds u will see a arrow pointing from the box to the android dummy(doll, toy or something).First boot will take about 5-30min(if longer u caused a bootloop so try again)

And u will see your android back to normal without root of course.

When I had this problem , tooked me about 5-6 full days to figure out how to unbrick XD.

Hit thanks if I helped u.(I want to be with the other devs.) :)

---------- Post added at 06:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 PM ----------

Oh, yeah mobocobo its going to be the original 2.3.6 or 2.3.3 stock ROM

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaowZ:
Hi there !

I just registered to this huge forum full of ressources and so many stuffs to dig in.. I own a Z1 Compact I bought last week and got into mods etc.. This is my first Android device and therefore got into it for the first time.. and what a world.. so many things over here..

As a developper, I'm getting interested in this environment so I first tried to gain access to this unix-based system called Android in order to see how this works..

Here my first steps: I needed to be root on this device..okay.. through tutos I read, I needed to unlock bootloader then I needed to install a new boot called ClockWorkMod (I believe this is a boot, according fastboot argument I supplied..) to allow me running the SuperUser script to be root. Afterwards, I backed up my TA partition..

Okay, these steps were done pretty out of the box, without Android knowledge so far.. Now, I'm about to install busybox for tools I'm used to use on every linux platforms.. but I really lack Android knowledge about Android partitioning system (I came across TA partition, /boot, /data what else ??), content, permissions management.. in few words, Android philosophophy ;) So guys, do you know good web ressources around my questionings so that I can start properly and the right way :)

I'd really like to contribute in a humbly manner, I've already developped upon ARM platforms with realtime OS and many stuffs around linux kernel, so if you guys had any suggestions for low-level dev and Android in-depth ressources etc.. I'd be grateful :)

Thanks a lot.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coirpre:
Welcome in the exciting world of Android! I am by no means a programmer, but I have been here for a while and will just explain a few things I think are helpful. If it's stuff you already know, feel free to ignore it.

Important things first: I hope you have made a Backup of your TA-Partition before unlocking the bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader modifies the TA- partition. It is not possible to undo it if you d not have a backup. Flashing someone else's TA will brick your device!

If I am not mistaken, the TA is mainly used to verify that the phone is in original condition e.g. not modified.

Unlocking the Bootloader (BL) removes Sony's DRM-Keys from the partition, because unlocking enables you to get root access and copy all the protected stuff anyways. The result is that you loose access to some of sony's services and the use of XReality engine.

Unlocking the BL breaks the Sony Update Service, but if you unlocked with Flashtool, you will be able to relock easily. Do only relock while on a stock kernel, else the phone won't boot because it detects modified firmware.

AFAIK root is a function of the kernel, as is ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM). they come included in, for example, DooMKernel.

Superuser and SuperSU are apps that allow you to manage root acces, giving it to the apps that need it, and stopping bad apps from getting it.

Recovery and fastboot *for me* something like a secondary boot partition. I don't know if that's technically correct, but even if the system is unbootable, you can boot into CWM and work from there.

TWRP (TeamWin Recovery Project) is another custom recovery that allows you to do interesting things.

Do not mess with the BL and TA more than necessary. A broken TA, aswell as a messed-up BL, can prevent you from booting. As long as the BL is functional and you can get into Flashmode or fastboot mode, the phone can be saved.

If/when you have root, use Terminal Emulator from Google play to find partitions.

for more tecnical aspects, go over to the "Original Android Development" forum for the Z1C. Be aware that you need a minimum uf 10 posts to be able to post there. They are a little picky about the quality of your posts.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaowZ:
Hi Coirpre !!

Thanks a lot for the tips ;)

Well, this step is pretty confusing, since *they* indeed advise you to proceed to TA backup before any BL unlocking but before running the script that saves your TA, you need to be root.. and thus, to load CWM and guess what ? Need to unlock BL to install CWM.. Unless I missed something, it looks a bit weird..

Anyway, I unlocked through the use of FlashTool utility and apparently it hadn't compromised XReality nor TrackID either.. (I read somewhere TrackID app won't start if your DRM are broken.. true ??)

This is one of my first questioning.. Usually, if you consider a mainstream PC, you have a piece of code we formerly called a BIOS before EFI system, this BIOS launchs a bootloader (GRUB/LILO whatever.. for linux or NTLDR for Win) and even if you wipe this bootloader, you can always rewrite a fresh one and the BIOS will then start it and the OS to start as well.. You just need to boot upon another medium to restore/install a bootloader, the BIOS is not altered.

But in this device, it appears one can hard-break the unit, solely by messing with BL/TA partitions.. like if there wasn't any BIOS equivalent.. When you say As long as the BL is functional [..] you can get into Flashmode/Fastboot mode I wonder how that piece of code responsible of this feature is not hard-coded in a ROM.. Powering up this device while gently pushing a hardware button is usually processed by a hard-coded system - the BIOS. Just like when you hold pressed the Power button of your running PC, this is the BIOS which interprets this command as a "Shut down right now !!" this is not the role of a bootloader.. I have to know more about Sony system :)

Thanks for the links, btw ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Option58:
There is a way to root and install CWM without unlocking the bootloader.

BTW Root is allowing us to modify /system and unlocking to change kernel.

/system partition is same as C:/WINDOWS on PC.

Only, on android this is prohibited. And you gain access by rooting it.

So, if you want to root you insert a few apps and scripts to /system. Since it's prohibited developers find exploits to insert those files to /system by various tricks.

That's how you are rooted without unlocking the bootloader. And that's how you can backup your TA before unlocking the bootloader.

And, yeah, CWM can be inserted to /system as well as in kernel. But it's better to be in kernel since it won't be easily wiped out when you screw up something.

Basically, what you did is unlock the bootloader (lost DRM?) > insert CWM to kernel > Use CWM to root.

But don't worry, one couldn't care less about DRM. You don't need that for anything. And I heard Sony fixed removing DRM issues by unlocking the bootloader on latest firmwares but I'm not sure.

And about BIOS, yeah...I was wondering about that as well. But for sure if you mess up with boot.img that you flashed phone won't be able to recover / must go to the service. That's a good question why. Anyone could tell me more about that?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coirpre:
As option58 said, you can root using exploits. Unlocking is the official way provided by sony. However, there are always some hacks which can get you root without unlocking. That way you can back up TA without unlocking. On this device it is quite a hassle and involves flashing japanese and english firmwares...

Some of it is Sony, mainly the TA stuff they integrated for security and modification-checking. The boot process however is probably more or less the same on all android devices.

I agree that there must be something hardcoded that runs after the power button is pressed, but it probably is not enough. Notice that the device must be acessible (R/W) to restore a messed up BL, which is probably only the case after boot is completed. So:

Buttonpress --> BIOS --> BL (Whichever mode) --> partitions acessible. So If you can not get past the BL, you can not access the memory and thus not fix the BL.

But I am just speculating, so either we get some knowledgeable people in here, or someone has to read it up/google it.

[EDIT:] Oh, and by the way, PaowZ, can you change the topic to something more descriptive, "technical questions about boot process and partition handling" or something? maybe that will attract knowledgeable people...
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaowZ:
I'm almost sure there must be a way to access to raw flash r/o through addressing.. at least from some pin-outs on the motherboard of the Z1C..

I don't know S1 flashing protocol, maybe there is a way to force writes at a specific address, provided we could know start addresses of each partition..

This is actually what I do when I have to deal with ARM devices through a rs232 port.. I can flash wherever I want and too bad if I make a typo in the address. The device just won't load up anything, but it won't hard-brick anything.. :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coirpre:
well, this thread might interest you...

and I found this by chance, you were interested in the partitions:

However: this topic is far beyond my knowledge, at the moment I have just started learning Java to start tinkering with Android on app-level. You will have to find out by yourself. However, I am VERY interested in what you find, because these thingsa are always good to know. There are a lot people from the forums which could help you.

Alright. Plug your device into a wall charger. In all likelihood it will bootloop. Let it stay there for some time(preferably overnight). After that, try to get into fastboot. Once you're in fastboot, flash the stock kernel back.
