Need help

Hi,

I've run pac-rom on my Z1. Now I want to flash from the current .109 firmware only the base band. In Flash Tool under exclude everything except I labeled baseband. Then the flash process starts without error message. When I start the phone is still the old baseband version. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
Maybe its the same baseband?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scr@tchy:
No,

old version is .39, and the new from .108 is .51
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TommyX235:
Hey thanks for your answers @ all!!

The failure was that i flashed roms / ftf with very low battery. Than i charged for a few hours and flashed again .. and on and on.

At some point the accu seems to got broken.

I send it to a repair facility used by sony and they confirmed that the accu is dead.

It seems that i get a replacement. ;) (on warranty)

Thank you again. ! SO!!! What we learn from this is "Only flash your device when its charged!"
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RAF_SHC:
Hi Guys,

I have a new Note 3 (SM-9005) and wanted a definitive answer about triggering KNOX 0x1.

Is it possible for me to root without triggering KNOX?

I am not bothered about Custom ROMS at the moment or Recoveries. Just want ROOT.

My FW\SW details are;

AP: N9005XXUFNF4

CP: N9005XXUFNF2

CSC: N9005OXAFNF4

Any help greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killberty:
www.Towelroot.com - but not sure if it works on NF4, worth a try tho, as it wont trip your Knox in either way
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RAF_SHC:
Ok will have a look at that. Thanks. I believe it is geohotz version. I want to make sure it doesn't trip Knox before I try and will update this thread if I am successful as it may help others.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Or-L:
Hello.

I have the SGH-M919 with the following details:

Android version: 4.2.2

Baseband version: M919UVUEMK2

Kernel version: 3.4.0

Build number: M919UVUAMDB

This is after using various guides to rooting, getting rid of the SIM lock, changing the baseband version and reverting it.

Right now the phone works, I can make calls and the sound is fine. However, I can't turn Wi-Fi on. Thus, I have a few questions:

Is there a way to fix Wi-Fi on my phone?

Will upgrading to 4.3 be worth it, or will there be any risks?

Will upgrading/flashing a new (stock) rom bring back the SIM lock, or am I done with that?

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
1) there are several ways. You can start by downgrading your modem to its original since you are still on older firmware and see if that works

2) not very risky, just make sure you know about Knox and all that

3) Nope, unlocked for good
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Or-L:
Thanks!

I'm so happy to know that it's gone for good. That means I could probably just flash a stock 4.3 rom and get the matching modem with it, and hopefully have wi-fi working, right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Yup!

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZomBrony:
Similar Problem, but no HDR

Hey guys, I'm sorry to necro this thread but I'm having the same problem with one little difference- I know for a fact that HDR mode is not on. In fact, I have it on Manual mode. You said to just change to a mode that would support Flash and I assume Manual mode would, I also tried Auto mode and it was still greyed out.

I was wondering- Could it be because my phone's battery is so low? I just got this phone so I've been letting the battery drain so I could properly, fully charge it and it's come all the way down to 1% now. For the record, I did suspect that that could be the problem, but I was looking for validation. Also, I used Flash to take a picture of my mom just a few hours ago so I know it works.

Or was at least..

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] xbill9:
Success.

The boot.img stuck right away.

Installed latest PA Gapps plus supersu.zip 2.01.

A few minor issues so far-

The CM11 setup was looking for a SIM Card during initial install-

but the castor_windy version doesn't support LTE or WWAN.

Mobile network setup is visible from the settings screen.

(windy_pollux does not show these menus but pollux LTE does)

My play store apps are restoring as I type- so far so good.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] rcstar6696:
I will look on it but i use the same lines as in pollux_windy tree

Tomorow i Release a New version and i will look on it before the release
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
Installation went great here too. I have the same SIM-issue as the previous poster.

Other than that, it seems to be working perfectly (aside from the known issues). Currently pulling everything in from Play!

Thanks man!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
I'm seeing some crazy bettery usage - Android OS eating up 60% of the battery. The charger can't even keep up!

I'm guessing this is related to the SIM card stuff, as the power graph shows "Mobile network signal" in bright red at the top -which is odd, considering this is the wifi model ;).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] rcstar6696:
Yes i saw the battery usage is crazy and the cpu load is to high but both can related to the sim card stuff

After Work i will looking on it but i can 't guarantee that i can fix it
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
That's what testing is for! Take your time - I'd rather things are done well but take time, than done quickly but crappy :).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] xbill9:
A couple more things working with the ROM-

-weird screen flickering when I connect with a USB cable to a PC

after booting the tablet standalone (it happens with ADB USB debugging on and off)

-I can confirm the battery drain too - same results

-I managed to turn ART runtime on- it rebooted 3-4 times but it did come back eventually

-screen touch bug (maybe after the tablet sleeps?) I set the screen lock to None and still see the bug
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Quipeace:
Are you sure? Mine rebooted a couple of times, like yours. However, they were soft reboots (not near a computer, so no logs I'm afraid). It eventually did a hard reboot at "Starting apps" and then reset to Dalvik (notice the much faster " Optimizing apps" phase). Check back in settings, but I'm guessing yours set itself back to Dalvik too.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] xbill9:
Sorry- I stand corrected.

The ART settings did not stick.

I know it is experimental - but I have been running ART for quite a while

on other Sony devices (amami, pollux, and pollux_windy) with no problems.

The final reboot on castor_windy seems to reset Dalvik after several failed boots.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] kbroh:
Castor _windy runs very well other than the touch interface bug. Thanks for working on this ROM and take your time. We look forward to the fix.

Very nice.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] bacon612:
My z2 tab battery died over night while sleeping with the 36% battery left just like in the above screenshot. Definitely still a battery drain concern especially with how efficient the stock OS was. Not a complaint as this ROM is a work in progress. Just wanted to report that its still an issue for those interested in trying it.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] hasenbein1966:
If the touch in CM11 is better than in the stock. 402 ROM, would it be possible to take the files which are responsible for touch control and copy them over to the stock ROM?? (If yes, which are the files?)

Or are these things "baked in" in the kernel? Or are the directory structures different, causing incompatibility?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] rcstar6696:
I think you habe Seen that z2 tab gets officiall Support Form Cm and now stop development Cm and i won't release a castor Rom

Hello,

i have a galaxy mega I9205 LTE, three weeks ago i have flashed the original 4.4 KK update from samfirmware, and from that moment i have no more boot logo (the one with the "Galaxy mega" words), and download mode screen. I have done a full wipe (clean cache, wipe data, and kalvin wipe) from CMW and original recovery, tried with CM11 rom, and other 4.4 roms (can't downgrade to 4.2.2 :( ), nothing, my boot logo don't come out.

I think the fault is the bootloader, but i don't know if it can be restore or something like that.

How can i fix the problem?

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] 1stfunnyboy:
Flashing I9200XXUDNF3 from sammobile with odin 3.09 didnt slove the problem. Should i try with odin 3.04?? (My phone is GT-I9200)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] jk0l:
Yeah. I tried to update to Kitkat and have flashed with almost every version of odin and the results were all the same.

However, I didn't encounter problems like you did.

Only the system (rom), recovery, boot (kernel) were flashed, and the modem (radio) and bootloader weren't registered into the phone.

And since my bootloader was still the old one (Knox-free), I was able to downgrade and did OTA update.

So now, for your situation, I can only think of trying to update with Kies.

DO NOT AND NEVER try what I did since you don't have download mode to confirm whether you have the new Knox bootloader, so you might end up BRICKED.

Again. Try to update with Kies. DO NOT downgrade by odin flash old firmwares (4.2.2).

And if Kies works out for you, let the other member (who's having same problem) know.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] DarkAngel:
:good:

This is the #1 thing I am seeing members doing, attempting to downgrade from KK 4.4.2 Kitkat. It's becoming a trend so to speak. Although I will say it is sometimes a hardware error/issue, not many are reading before installing/attempting to downgrade.......

To the others.......

Once there, there is no going back. Yes you can flash Custom Roms all you want as long as you do not attempt to successfully downgrade the KitKat Knox Bootloader and pass. The OTA even tells you so and this is on any Galaxy phone you buy, not just the Mega.

If you can get into Recovery, then recover one of your backups,

only

if you didn't update to the Official KitKat 4.4 with the Updated Knox Bootloader either thru OTA or Odin

If you can still get into download mode then you are somewhat okay and there is still some hope. You can try flashing the Official Firmware to recover.

Only

flash (

pre KitKat 4.4

) Official Firmwares thru Odin

if

you didn't already update to the Official KitKat 4.4 with the Updated Knox Bootloader either thru OTA or Odin.

If you

can not

get into Download Mode and the phone does not boot up or plugging in the phone to the computer with no battery installed you get the qhsusb_dload mode, then the possibility that you are likely bricked is good.

From here you either send it for JTag or see if someone with the same Phone and Carrier can make you a debrick image for you to burn to a memory card so your phone can be able to boot off it into Download Mode and Odin the Official Firmware. You will need to search for this method.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] corrystile:
UP.

Tried to use odin 3.09, update bootloader, with new Italian firmware, nothing.

Restore the phone through Kies: nothing.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] SkyQaz:
Hello guys i got same problem like you after OTA updade to kitkat,

Now i using spirit ron by silesh, what i did is just flash cutom recovery with odin like a blind man!

Just verify you enter download mode.

Turn off your phon( after phone vibrate)

Press vol down+home+power, hold together until phone vibrate and wait about 2sec and then release all button

To verify you enter download mode, please wait about 3minutes if phone not boot to os, you are just one step to download mode, just press and relese volume up to enter download mode

Then connect your phone to pc with odin run in administrator privileges, if odin detect your phone youre ready for rumble LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] corrystile:
So flashing Spirit Rom by Silesh will fix my problem?
