[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] fedcas:
thanks for your help. I've tried removing the battery but it's just the same. A blue led, not green, turns on for a couple of seconds on my xperia pro... i've recorded a short video so you can check that i'm doing everything properly...

OUCH i can't insert links :s youtube .com/ watch?v=_hIZMn9HrlA

so you think it's not a problem if i have bricked the phone wiping off the firmware? the flashing procedure should work the same?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] fedcas:
MUAHHAHA got it!!! my phone is finally flashed! i was just pressing the wrong button :s even if all the guides specific for xperia pro were saying to pross the volume down button, i had to press the BACK button! and the led did turn on green indeed, as you were saying ;)

just another question: what happened when that CWM menu asked me "Root access is missing. Root Device? This cannot be undone" and I choosed yes? does that mean i rooted the phone? and is it stil rooted or it's been overwritten by the original firmware i have just flashed?

thanks ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
I'm sorry, I forgot the thing about the back button instead of volume down, too :(

If you have an unlocked bootloader, your phone normally should automatically be rooted when you flash a custom kernel as (nearly) all kernels for our devices include this feature. But as you have flashed the stock firmware now, all was overwritten and you have to flash another custom kernel to get cwm back ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] fedcas:
ok, thanks a lot ;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abced123:
I use a chat app similar to Viber,Whatsapp on a stock JB ROM S2 . I wanna save all the messages/data/etc. so I back up the whole phone (system,data,etc) in CWM recovery. Then, I flash a new custom ROM also same version JB .

Then, I try to restore the data which include the chat app I want. No matter I try to restore by CWM or Nandroid backup or TiBackup ; the old messages never show up in the chat app . FYI, the messages are stored independently in internal storage, you can view them manually by file explorer.

However, if I flash the stock ROM back then the restore works perfectly . So, anyone has any idea ? The only thing I can think of is one is deodexed, and one is not; but the chat app runs fine, just the messages never show up ??

[Hardware Hacking General] zhill29:
First off I know theres threads and apps everywhere for this but i've downloaded a half a dozen apps with no luck. Is there a gamepad keymapper app that doesn't require root? I bought a knock off xbox 360 controller with a usb dongle off ebay. And I can use the left joy stick and about half of the other buttons. For some reason they also read the left joy stick and the d pad as the same. I don't care if I have to pay a couple bucks to get it to work, I just want it to work for MC3. This is being hooked up to one of the ebay "android mini pc's" I also ordered from ebay which has absolutely no support in the forums so me trying to figure out how to root it is next to impossible.

Man, anything to do with QHUSB is never good from pretty much everything I've read about it here on XDA. We can't help you on this issue. QHUSB is the very definition of a hard brick. My friend, you're going to have to suffer through the agony that it OnePlus Customer Service. Best of luck.

Can you tell us exactly what you did so other people don't end up with the same outcome as you? Really sorry to hear this, man.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
When I have seen this on other devices it often is due to loss of or corruption of firmware that has to do with the boot sequence such as bad bootloader or radio. I was messing with LOGO partition and nearly bricked my OPO the other day, got the same driver coming up. But luckily it rebooted back to os on its own and I just had to dd the partition back to stock in order to get bootloader back and functioning.

So other than JTAG you most likely can't do anything without shell commands available to you
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treChoy:
Typically, bootloader corruption is the cause of a phone entering QHUSB (Qualcomm High-Speed USB) mode. QHUSB is a very low level, extremely basic level of functionality that your phone can have with your computer; hell, it's so low-level, no one has been able to find the significance of it or how to reverse this mode yet (with the exception of a few people with a few legacy HTC device, and having some very lucky breaks, like Demkantor above me). Think of it as your phone being brain-dead. All of the things that made your phone yours (data, pictures, apps, pretty much everything having to do with data) is gone. Only the basic functions (USB connectivity through QHUSB, battery) are still functioning.

This is truly the worst-case scenario of development. Very sorry to hear.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
This has been asked and answered numerous times, so the ideal way to have found an answer - not mention a quicker one would have been to search the forum for existing threads.

What you are describing is called region locking and is used to discourage black market sales of handsets intended for one region to another. You can purchase region unlock codes or even circumvent the region lock blacklist yourself on a rooted phone. For that matter, (limited) reports seem to indicate that SIM unlock codes also remove the region lock.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilvanoP:
Thank you for the answer,

for me was really hard to search because i don't fully understand the differences, also at shop (best buy/at&T/Radioshack etc) they wasn't able to make a clear difference from no contract, unlocked and 1 month contract. I would be glad to buy S5 unlocked, but it seems impossible (i was in San Francisco and LA) only on web, where amazon (which i thought was more efficient in USA) want +40$ and not guaranteed 1 day shipping (in Italy they are way more quicker and cheaper).

Only to have a quick answer i post it here, because i had to go to see a used phone (which after revealed to be a rooted and flashed with bad IME (like 22222225) i was surprised that in USA people try to cheat you).

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
It doesn't imply. But as it check if it's really gonna work and firewater definitely doesn't it's the best try you got.

By the way. You just have to pay if it is gonna work and all checks the tool runs are positive.

Hit "Thanks"if I was of any help.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Firewater won't work. It requires an online server component, that was taken offline 4 years ago.

If you want s-off, you need to pay for sunshine.

But s-off is only needed for limited things (changing CID/MID, manually flashing hboot, radio, etc.). S-off is not needed to root or flash custom ROMs.

Make sure you actually need s-off, before you waste too much time trying to s-off!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Are you trying to get LTE? Just flashing firmware, may not accomplish that. Again, just trying to make sure you don't spend money on sunshine s-off, for no good reason.

Also, you should tread carefully, as flashing the wrong firmware to certain M8 versions can brick the phone.

If you want us to take a closer look, do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

Also, tell us which 3G and LTE bands your local carrier uses.

my problem is i just updated to twrp 2.7.0.1 and no everytime i exit the recovery it says theres no op or superuser installed. its funny cus i do and it boots up normal. please help me its annoying and scary at the same time thanks. on htc evo 4g lte rooted and unlocked s-on with meanbean 3.9. i wanted to add i just tried to flash viper rom and it has the aroma installer 2.0 and says the kernal wasnt installed. so im basically stuck on meanbean.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fizbanrapper:
Meanbean is one of the only ROMs you can flash s-on without fastboot flashing the kernel separately through the bootloader.

S-on is doing what it's supposed to. Meanbean somehow maintained its HTC signature, so the phone doesn't know that it's supposed to try to fix it.

Get s-off. Also consider running the ruu to update to the new partition layout.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Bigc13:
thank you i actually just fixed it. i had to downgrade trwp. twrp2 was bad. maybe a bad dl. i know i have to flash the boot.img in fb while s-on. the weird thing was i couldnt make a backup or even mount via twrp. so i figured that was it. now you say to get s-off, well i need help with that. i have hboot 2.9 (0830) and i tried moonshines s-off and it didnt work it always says adb connection failed and yes usb debugging was enabled. what would you suggest to get s-off on my htc evo 4g lte. ive searched and read. alot of programs only use linux. im on win 7 and live cd was a pain. if you could help with that i would appreciate it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] GuestK0087:
Try firewater.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Greenfieldan:
You can try Firewater for Hboot 2.09.

I'd recommend running the newest RUU to update to 2.10, then unlocking, rooting and running rumrunner. That seems to be the way most people are getting s-off nowadays without running into hassles (you'll find a lot of threads where people on 2.09 and such having random issues trying to gain s-off, although it is very doable)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Bigc13:
I'll give it a shot. Hope it works I really don't want to relock the bootloader and root again. Lol. So hopefully this works no

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] scooter1979:
I'm running the latest stock rooted (2.16.651.4) and just tried to use the Zoe function in camera. It's the first time I've tried to use it since the update, and it's crashing the camera app left and right. When I switch from any other function to Zoe, crash. I bring camera back up, and it'll be in Zoe, but half of the time, it'll crash right away again. If it does stay up, it seems to work until I switch away and back again.

My question is, could anyone share the apk for camera (assuming it'll contain all of the functions including Zoe) so I can try to reload the app? Or if anyone knows of a different fix, I'm certainly open to suggestions. Thanks.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
Try clearing the App Cache in the App Settings to reset the camera to the default settings.

Edit: Interestingly enough, my camera app crashes when I switch to Zoe, but without a crash alert (not sure if my custom Rom has blocked those). The difference is that u can open my camera into Zoe, and successfully capture Zoe images.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] scooter1979:
That's almost identical to my problem. No crash alert, the app just goes down. If, by stroke of luck, I can get it to run with Zoe, I can take images just fine. The problem shows back up when I try to use any other camera function then go back to Zoe.

I did get one error, systemui crashed and it was the report or not error, but that only happened once.

I cleared the cache, and while it doesn't crash 8 out of 10 times, it'll still go down like 4 out of 10. If I cleared the app data, would that smoke my pictures or anything?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
No. It only clears the App data for the camera, making it as 8f you opened the camera for the first time, pop-up tips and all.
