[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fisduki:
Please help.

I just installed the jrummy rom installer and was trying to get a back up of my current rom. It said I had to flash their recovery rom, so I hit ok and now my phone is stuck saying "Downloading... Do not turn off traget!!" It has been like that for about 30 minutes.

Do I have a brick?

It is an SCH-I545 version of the S4
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m3ni:
nope...

i think you are in odin mode ! see.. is there a odin on top of the screen?? and a green android in the middle? if yes and there is no blue bar in the buttom of the screen, and you didnt connected your phone to pc and opened odin it is safe to remove the battery and turn on your device again :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fisduki:
It has the green android on the screen and no blue bar. any idea which version of odin do I need?

Thanks again to the very smart posters here on xda!!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m3ni:
hi

odin is the offical samsung flashtool , it is for flashing offical rom's (for briked phones & ect...)

if you want to flash with odin you must first download your phone's offical rom, entering to bootloader mode "odin" (by holding volume up+home+power)

then it will ask you... press volume up to accept

then in odin "version 3 is better" Usually AP option, select the rom .md5

then start....

it will automaticly reboot your device when it's dune ;)

[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaysoblitzed:
This file below is the Stock RUU only for the HTC Desire 816W / A5_DUG !

https://www.dropbox.com/s/h32sc97xl...8.3230.00D_F_release_389233_signed_2.zip?dl=1

Download it and make a copy of it.

Now rename both copies.

-Name one 0P9CIMG.zip

-Name one 0PC9DIAG.zip

Not sure which name your device uses but its one of these so just test both starting with the first one or put two copies one of each on your device.

You'll know because when you put this on the phone and go back into the bootloader it will ask you to use Volume Key to confirm the update. (Check to make sure it says A5_dug at the top)

Do this and let it update & complete.

Once done you can start up and update if its available but I'm pretty sure this is the latest full stock update for your device.

If its in Chinese and you want it to be a different language simply skip past everything and go into settings.

Go to this icon -> [[[A] (Should be the 7th icon from the bottom.)

Now select the first option.

Choose your language.

Done!

(P.S. Now you can root if you'd like!)

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] s0urce:
aWizard can unlock CID and RAPI a XDA Neo (Prophet/G4) device?

If not, how else?

If i make my Ext. Rom shown and edit able and delete some CABs, then:

-they are disabled after restart?

-they are deleted for ever, also after hard reset?

Is there a way to completly delete the O2 Themes, also the Phone Skin and Splash Screen?

If there a way to complety delte the GPRS? like:

- delte a CAB or anything else?

much thx 4 help

s0urce
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Spatzm:
No you can't and there is no way doing this as of now for a G4.

The Ext. Rom provides extra software that usually gets installed by default once a hardware reset has been done. Deleting CAB's in the Ext. Rom (whether it's possible is another question) has no effect on the Prophet at all. If software from Ext. Rom got installed already then they stay installed until you uninstall it or do a hardware reset.

No.

You don't want to do any of that unless you know what you are doing.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] s0urce:
Spatzm, thx so far ... but:

-how can i edit my ext rom then? when not with deleting the CABs?

-and i saw some threads they said, u can unlock a G4:

• one said with the aWizard

• and some others told of variouse tools to do that

they are all wrong?

... btw. i ask this, because i wanted to backup my XDA with aWizard before i change anything, but to before backup, the aWizard Tools tell i have to unlock, and without i only can backup the ext rom.
[Xposed General] doronmazor:
need help

Hi I`m using your code and it`s work I seccessed to comunicate between the module and the FileObserver.

But my problem is that I want to activate some class or send a intent to activate some function from the FileObserver and I don`t find a way to do it.

Do you have any solution for me??

Thanks
[Xposed General] digitalhigh:
This method is beyond hackey. TBH, I'd be embarrassed to use it in my code.

If you want to communicate from Xposed to your main app, add a broadcast reciever and talk to it via intent and putextra. Provided you're not passing sensitive data, this works wonderfully.
[Xposed General] elesbb:
lol

Why would you be embarrassed? This works perfectly when we have no context object in the class/method being hooked. If coded properly, it functions the exact same way as a broadcast receiver. Where is your solution to communicating without a context object? Not exactly sure why you think this method doesn't work...
[Xposed General] digitalhigh:
Look, not trying to be mean...it's just a very hacky solution. There are other ways to resolve the context of the class/method being hooked, and better ways to communicate between xposed and the apk code besides writing a file to the /data partition and then watching it. Sure, it works, but IMHO, it's...well...hacky.
[Xposed General] elesbb:
I am not taking you as being mean. Not one bit. Just trying to expand my knowledge and better my code. You said there are other ways to resolve the context of the class/method being hooked, what are they? You said there are better ways to communicate between xposed and the apk code other than writing and listening to a file, well what are they? lol. I am asking so I can use them.

I have done ample research when I wrote this guide, and there were no other ways to communicate when you couldn't get a context object. I do know you can call other methods and such using xposed to get objects, but that in itself is also hacky. I really would like to know what other ways there are so I can use them instead of the current method. A lot of "helper" class files have issues where there is no context because its not needed. Say you have a class file labeled "MathHelper" and you want to hook the method "getFirstZero" and in that method the user wrote something simple like this:

private int firstZero(String address) {
int returnValue = address.indexOf("0");
return returnValue;
}

THIS IS JUST A POOR EXAMPLE.

You have no context object. And the class is huge. You want your app to, i don't know, show a notification and perform some task when the address is equal to some explicit value. There is no way of telling your app what the address is.

So what would you personally do to resolve this aside from simply creating a method inside the xposed class with the proper actions. I'm honestly curious.

[Xperia Z1 General] BlackSoulxxx:
This is my first guide to write on XDA, so pls forgive me and report to me if you find some error :p:p

Pls make a backup first. I dont care if your device is brick/damaged/your house is on fire

Requirement

-Z1 SOL23, fully working

-Flashtool latest version with installed Z1 Flashtool driver (Be sure when you install driver with Flashtool Xperia Driver Pack, tick 3 boxes: Xperia Z1 driver, Xperia Z1 L39h driver and Xperia Z1 f SO-02F)

-SOL23 14.1.C.3.95

https://mega.co.nz/#!7xwQ0TCb!vEKyi_DdRLA7YgS4IjEvo7EFljUgqae7KgkFDRq8dgs

-C6903 converter

http://www.mediafire.com/download/csl0amuhkpgvycu/SOL23_4.4.4_14.4.A.0.108_Converter.ftf

The guide

1. First set you network mode in SOL23 into "GSM Only"

2. Install Flashtool with Z1 driver (already mention), download both file and paste it into Flashtool install directory (Normally "C:\Flashtool\firmwares")

3. Open Flashtool, choose SOL23 firmware (14.1.C.3.95) and in Wipe section, tick 3 boxes: APPLOGS, DATA, CACHE. And press "Flash" button below

4. While waiting for Flashtool for preparing the file, turn off your phone and prepare the usb cable

5. When Flashtool is require to plug the cable in, plug the usb cable into your phone. Then press Vol- button while plug the cable into PC

6. Flashtool will auto recognize the phone and will start to flash the FTF

7 When you flash done, turnon the phone and check if your ROM version is 14.1.C.3.95. Set the network mode "GSM Only" too

8 Turnoff your phone again. Open Flashtool and choose C6903 file. In Wipe section, tick 3 boxes like step 3. And in Exclude section, tick Partition and Baseband box. Then in Misc section, tick No final verification

9 Repeat step 5 and 6. After it was done, turnon the phone and you will see the result

Cons

-NFC still not working

Pros

All good!

I'm sorry, but does that mean it would give me 32gb of memory on C6903? I think I didn't get this right, but it's worth asking xd
[Xperia Z1 General] BlackSoulxxx:
Since SOL23 is Japanese variant of Z1 with bigger memory (32GB!) and have NFC/Felicia..... and when convert to c690x rom normal process it just lost half of it memory (actually it's hidded from the ROM)

The only drawback is NFC not working....

And NO, you cant add memory to your devices physically (If you want to, search for "download ram" :p *j/k* )
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
Thanks. I had no idea about that. I was asking cos since we did unlock hidden bands then I hoped that half of memory is locked in the device. It's always worth asking ;)

[Xperia Z1 General] Furrydaus:
So let me get this straight...

Doing everything stated restores LTE and international Band functionality and the ability to function as a normal xperia z1 and is able to flash the updated stock roms or flash custom roms?

The sol23 has 32gb storage but the au stock rom forces it to half the storage. By doing this, I get 32gb storage?

Btw is unlocking the bootloader of the sol23 possible?

You can manipulate and fix this problem 1 / Up rom Sony Xperia Z1 International for AU Sol23 You can download any of Z1 C6903 rom to flash past on FlashTool but must Requirements: Must be in accordance with instructions must original Japanese rom are and still get called normal hearing new sim perform this step in flash tool You need to set up: No final verification + + (Wipe APPSLOG, CACHE, dATA) to delete the data and cleaning machines. If you do not want to lose data, you can clear the area of Data section. + (PARTITION, TA, FOTA baseband) to avoid missing IMEI and reduction in the machine's memory, then press the Flash 2 / Fix Not getting the call and failed to send a message on the International version of the Sony Xperia rom Z1 AU Sol23 * the reason is very likely you have to rom International and alarm When there is a new update. You OTA update, or you already Up to Rom International and OK Then Nghe- Call You Back Up Rom International continues through Flash tool * Fix You have to put the original Japanese Stock Rom Link rom Clearance rom stock then you follow up through normal FlashTool FlashTool default without leave items such integrated international rom. Done then you restart the computer> network settings mode overseas GSM sim to a receiver. Tested ok heard calling and texting can be up to international rom follow the instructions above
