[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bc13:
Has anyone found a aosp Rom and kernel combo that s2w and s2s work on? Can't seem to get any to work right.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennonk:
So I'm not sure if it's a concern here, but my understanding is the reason Google jumped from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4 so quickly was there are some pretty serious SSL security related problems in the 4.4.3 code base. So many of the stock based M8 roms are 4.4.3 now I am wondering if it is a legit problem in our phone's roms. Does anyone know if HTC backported the 4.4.4 SSL fixes into their 4.4.3 rom?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ufoman:
Yes, the fixes were backported.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidvandertier:
Hello everyone. I was asking myself, if it is possible to get the stock firmware back ^^
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LenAsh:
Look at the sticky in General Forum. All you need to know is there.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidvandertier:
But I cannot get into flashmode :(. I tried the volume down+ connecting the usb but the only thing I can see is, that the LED is flashing 3 times. 3 different colours pleas help :D
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidvandertier:
i meant fastboot mode ^^
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
(1) Use PC Companion and do a repair.

(2) Download the relevant firmware file and use Flashtool to flash.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidvandertier:
I will try this right now :) and I will report if it worked or not ^^
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidvandertier:
UPDATE: waiting for charging :P. I have to waiit untill my battery is half-way full

Okay.. Tried it.. Didnt work :c
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LenAsh:
You need to provide a lot more information.

If you follow the OP I gave you in the earlier post, it works. Why are you using Fastboot??? You should be using Flashmode in Flashtool.

You need to ensure you have the correct PC drivers.

Again, assuming you have read and followed the suggested linked method, provide more info about your phone state.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
And which method did not work? Us your bootloader unlocked?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidvandertier:
How can I see if it is unlocked ^^ sorry im a noob+
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
Unlocking is an intentional act. If you have not done it before, then it's still locked.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidvandertier:
oh okay. Is this really relevant? Because.. I dont know but I think, that the warranty void is damaged by doing so
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
It's relevant because if your bootloader is unlocked, then you need to use Sony Flash Tool to flash stock firmware.

So which method failed for you? And which step failed and what's the error? You need to give us more info so that we can help you.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMathMan:
Hi

I love the profiles but can't see a way of getting them to be triggered by time for instance.

Is there a way of doing it in Tasker or Trigger?

In Tasker, and using a Settings Activity, the closest I can get is to launch the profiles pane but not set anything.

Cheers.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobi2709:
As a work around you could remake the profiles in Tasker an trigger them as a Task.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMathMan:
Yeah I could but that defeats the object.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oscarandjo:
Nice, another Brightonian with the OPO! :)

I was actually wondering the same thing yesterday, I didn't find any answers though. :(
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMathMan:
I'm just using the Trigger app and the profiles I saved to it's cloud from my Z2. All good for now.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickjwall:
I use the 'Profile 4 Tasker' app, works a treat
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Earthdog:
I am testing a MS Surface Pro 3 at the moment. What a great keyboard. I wish Samsung or anyone would create a Keyboard Touchpad combination. There is a lot to like about the Surface but I prefer the Note for Note taking. If it just had a slim keyboard with a trackpad I would never need my MacBook Air...

Just wishful thinking.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] angus454:
That would be cool, but the Surface 3 is a very different critter than the Note Pro... I really like the Logitech keyboard (alas, no touchpad ) and it has turned my NP 12.2 into a serious enough productivity tool for me to retire my laptop. If you haven't tried it, give it a shot, it might be enough to not miss the touchpad. :)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] mdcarter67:
Doesn't the touchscreen eliminate the need for a touch pad?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Mickeylittle:
Yes it does but with a keyboard attached it is more fluid to usa a touchpad while you are typing rather than reaching up to touch the screen. If this wasn't the case then we wouldn't see touchpads on 99% of all Windows 8 touch screen laptops/tablets as they would just skip the touchpad to make the keyboard a little more roomy.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] omegafiler:
Yeah, a good keyboard dock would do wonders for the productivity side of things. The Logitech one is probably the best, but it's still limited. Only one angle, bulky, adds noticable weight, etc. I liked the SP3 way better in that regards. I suppose you get what you pay for. :)

But if you stick with usual tablet functions (i.e. media consumption) and don't try to do any serious or heavy productivity tasks, the GNP 12 isn't bad at all.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Earthdog:
I find it much more efficient to keep my hands in one spot. The SGN 12.2 with Hankok Office is very close to make this a true office device.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Epic Nightmare:
I was considering getting a keyboard case when i ordered the Note Pro, but then it arrived and i used it... the full size on screen keyboard in landscape mode works just as well as a physical keyboard..... im glad i didnt blow another $100 on a keyboard case
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ChironexFleckeri:
I know what you mean. I like the keyboard on the surface pro. Though I like the logitech keyboard for galaxy note. However I started to notice something. Never am out and about and think to my self I really need todo some serious typing where I need the keyboard. Every time I have come across a need for a keyboard I have been at a desk where I can setup keyboard/ mouse etc.

My point here is I have never felt the need to have a key board with me, if im out and need to jot something down, I write with the spen, or use the handwrite to text. Not once has that failed me. I quite enjoy it.

So at home if im writting a paper for class or work. I use my old mac bluetooth magic mouse and keyboard. Works like a charm. :good:
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ShadowLea:
Coming from an Asus Transformer, I do occasionally miss my solid adjustable keyboard dock with touchpad, full-usb and SD slot. (see why I'm not impressed with the one on the Surface?)

Bought myself a Logitech K810 keyboard, M705 mouse (over USB OTG) and a Belkin Flipblade Adjust. More stuff, but more flexibility. What's one more thing in a 15" bag?

You can use USB OTG with the Logitech Nano receivers, by the way. There are a few Logitech semi-full keyboards with touchpad that work over Nano Recievers.
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
Hello XDA users,

I am really proud to present to you one of the most interesting ROM called MIUI (Redefining Android)

Base ROM: This rom has been ported by patchrom using Stock based Sony firmware build 10.3.1.A.2.67 TW (Taiwan) Version (which is the 4.2.2 version) this means this ROM is very bugless and have a really great battery life (tested) and have Bravia 2, Xload, Walkman and Sony Album Xperia menu to select MTP or MSC and playstation certificate.

Recovery and Installer: I have implement aroma installer and added recovery from [NUT]'s recovery so all credit to him : )

Kernel: I have added lightning kernel from nikhil18 on this rom for unlocked bootloaders but for locked bootloaders they need to flash stock 4.4.2 rom before flashing this.

MIUI Version: This rom has been ported from MIUI V4.9.19

Please note that GAAPS is NOT included, you may flash it manually AFTER booting the rom

Download GAAPS

For those who want LTE Please note (Only C5503) : after flashing the rom and select C5503 go to dialer and dial: *#*#4636#*#* then go into Phone information, slide down and select Set preferred network type then chose LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) mode and you're all set ;)

What's working?:

Everything so far

What's not working?:

Didn't notice any major issues! Pleas kindly do tell me if you find anything not working EXCEPT ADB which is a known bug (USB is working flawlessly)

BUGS:

Album is Not working ... you need to download and install it's app from the link below.

I need some guys to test wether if pin code on simcards working correctly on miui.

[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
Thanks for your hard work as there are very less ROM's for ZR :) will try out once it's stable :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] bkhuraijam:

[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
miui is highly Hard-Coded android ... so it's possible that some apps that needs modification in system cannot works ... well you still can use xposed for miui,

to fix your phone try uninstall the app and reflash the package witouth wiping data ;)
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
LOL!

find out why, it cannot create directory.

for screen shots you need to make a folder in DCIM with the name "Screenshots" and everything will be alright ;)
[Sony Xperia ZR] nikhil18:

[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
Hi Sijav Sir, Thank you for MIUI rom for ZR.

I am on rooted kitkat rom.

Entered Phil recovery.

Flashed MIUI rom

(without any wipe catche, or data)

Successfully installed from Aroma. No problem at all.

Wipe done during Aroma installation.

But.... During system reboot, I am now stuck at MIUI logo.

Tried to do wipe data, catche and again reboot, but same problem.

Something went wrong...

So again restored original rooted rom via recovery.

Pl suggest how to do. I want to use your MIUI rom.
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
Is your bootloader unlocked?? and did you select the lightning kernel in setup??
[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
No, I am on locked bootloader. Using Thibou rooted kitkat and recover.

I didn't select lighting kernel.

Installation was successful but reboot problem.

Attached log cat - initial and last script.
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
Everything seems ok how much time did you wait?? because the first boot takes some time
[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
Sir, I waited for 15min.

But battery indicator was going down

so due to fear, decided to remove battery.

Then I tried once again but no success.

Then I entered recovery, done wipe data, cache and rebooted but still problem.

Now on original rooted rom.

---------- Post added at 11:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 PM ----------

May I try once again with wipe data, cache and delvic cache and then flash rom?
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
Hmm that's strange I installed the rom and it's working just fine(check the screenshots in previous posts)

Just check the MD5 sum of the zip you downloaded and see if it's equal to "154472ecf8d92444fb1cff09fa539ef0" (without quotes)

If it's same then I think the developer can solve your problem
[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
154472ecf8d92444fb1cff09fa539ef0

Same. Checked with ES file Explorer.
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
hmm try to install it again and if it reacts the same again then wait till tomorrow the developer will surely give you a solution :)
[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
Sir, did you wipe data, cache before flashing miui rom?
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
no just followed the aroma installer
[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
Sir, during system reboot, I got three option.

No

Yes (Disabled recovery flash)

No

I was selected yes. Was that correct?
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
select no
[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
Installed successfully. Choose no during system reboot.

Thanks. Working great.
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
LOL!

sorry forgot to mention that select no in recovery. but it was in beta state however :)

anyways I've fixed that Disabled recovery flash when reboot after installed, also fix su, but the problem is because of the su conflicts with recovery ... welll .... recovery doesn't work with volume button :( but it can be reached with the NTR Utils thanks to [NUT]!

I've fixed some lag in the ui!

and also fixed the battery drain problem :)

ya many fixed will arrive within just a few minute :D

EDIT: Rom updated ...

I think it is now stable and can be use for daily :) have fun :D

Yet didn't test the C5503, So ... test it and tell :)
[Sony Xperia ZR] hamed...:
Gallery and mass storage fc fixed?:silly:
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
great :good: :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
mass storage fc still doesn't fixed,

gallery does never had problems? maybe you mean Sony Album? well no Sony album won't work you need to use either Google photo (if you install the gaaps) or miui Gallery.

however this rom is miui so miui apps should work not sony's :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
hey guys,

someone reported that this doesn't work when selecting C5503 ... well here's the fix => http://d-h.st/NaE

just after flash the rom and select C5503 flash the file I give you and everything should be alright

and please tell me the result
[Sony Xperia ZR] swasha123:
Installed MIUI 4.8.1 successfully. Working very smooth. Everything fine. You are correct, MIUI ROM is for MIUI Apps not for Sony. Thanks.

I have few questions.

1. Is it pre-rooted ROM?

2. Do I need to install Super Su for Root?

3. MIUI asking permissions same like Super Su, are this permissions different than Super Su?

Pl reply.
[Sony Xperia ZR] harshal.rio91:
Album Fix

Found a fix for Sony Album app follow the following steps:

1. Uninstall Album from Titanium Backup.

2. Reboot

3. Download & Install Album from : http://d-h.st/gT6

4. Enjoy :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
where did you get that album from?
[Sony Xperia ZR] sijav:
miui has it's own su binary,

yes it's prerooted BUT you need to enable root permission in permission manager in security. that is all.

no need to flash super su, no need to install super su, no need to update su binary.

Governor Reset

[Sony Xperia ZR] anthonythangaraj:
Thank for wonderful ROM for locked bootloader. Today I flashed MIUI in my Xperia ZR (Today only got it back from service center). Everything seems to be working :good::good: great except little known bugs.

Phone is not connecting to wifi. Anybody faced similar issue??

Anyway I will try reflashing the ROM and report back.

Xperia ZR, Locked bootloader.

Edit:

My bad. Wifi is working fine. The problem is with my router.

ROM is great. I am loving the UI & Smoothness.

Thanks bro for the ROM :highfive: :good:

[Sony Xperia ZR] EnzoDC:
Does this ROM have the bravia engine 2 for LB? :) Or does it produce grainy images when using the camera? Cause I used Carbon KK ROM Unofficial and it was producing grainy photos and found out that the bravia engine 2 played a huge part in removing the image grains
