It's possible, but you're most likely going to distort the sound making it sound awful... but loud..

Volume in 23.0.1.A.5.77 is very loud :D
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greatgrandking:
this update was mainly for notification volume boost
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danijelsh:
Does the A.5.77 really affect the notification volume?

I think I have an HK custom Z3, and the last update for me was A.1.49 and for example - whatsapp sound notification is awfully quiet... I have to be in a quiet room to hear it, with the phone out of the pocket. Same goes with viber notifications...

Whatsapp has sony's sound, and viber has factory sound...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3Shirts:
Yep.

The first time I got a text message after the update I nearly shat myself. :eek:
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charlatan01:
This is great news. I struggled with this on my Z1c, and my Z3 is due at the doorstep today :)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danijelsh:
I flashed a different stock rom on my Z3, and now I have 23.0.1.A.5.77, the notification volume is FINALLY normal and loud, the way it always should have been. The notifications play through both speakers, but the ringtone plays through bottom speaker only, and it's a bit quiter (not much) and less bassy than on a preview. I don't find this to be a big problem, it rings for long, you'll hear it, but the short notification sounds were just impossible to hear...

Another thing that I liked about Sony is the handling of audio focus; when you're listening to music and a notification comes in, it's out of this world annoying when the music stops for a second in order for notificaton to play. The elegant solution that Sony does is lower the music volume for the duration of notification sound, and play both simultaneously. On my HTC M7, this was not the case when listening through headphones, but was the case when listening just through speakers (funny, should be oposite I guess). Sometimes, focus priorities were messed up even over bluetooth audio... I don't know if they oversee these little details on flagship devices with these prices. Anyway, I'm mentioning this because my Z3 yesterday did that to me while listening over car bluetooth; viber notifications kept chopping one track every two or three seconds like crazy! I thought that with these updates, they fix one thing but mess up something else, but a reboot helped, and all is well now.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdk333:
Hello, so I have been spending hours trying to find a solution to this problem, however everything I try seems to present more problems.

My phone was not modified in any way, it wasn't unlocked, I had not messed with anything related to rooting it or anything like that.

I tried to install the latest update, then it would freeze at the HTC One loading screen.

The only reason I think it could be is that maybe I was low on space and it didn't get to install fully without the device running out of space. However you would think that Android would stop you from being able to install the update, if you have in-sufficient space.

Here is what I have tried so far.

1. Firstly, I tried restoring to factory settings in the BOOTLOADER or whatever you call it, and that didn't fix my problem, then I entered recovery mode, and when trying to recover each one I would receive the message 'Invalid operation'.

2. The second method I figured would be to find the correct RUU file for my device, however after a great length of time searching, It appears there is no RUU for my device, here is my bootloader info:

INFOversion: 0.5

INFOversion-bootloader: 1.57.0000

INFOversion-baseband: 4T.27.3218.14

INFOversion-cpld: None

INFOversion-microp: None

INFOversion-main: 5.11.980.9

INFOversion-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON

INFOserialno: hidden

INFOimei: hidden

INFOmeid: 00000000000000

INFOproduct: m7_ul

INFOplatform: HBOOT-8064

INFOmodelid: PN0714000

INFOcidnum: HTC__039

INFObattery-status: good

INFObattery-voltage: 4310mV

INFOpartition-layout: Generic

INFOsecurity: on

INFObuild-mode: SHIP

INFOboot-mode: FASTBOOT

INFOcommitno-bootloader: dirty-e47fb74b

INFOhbootpreupdate: 11

INFOgencheckpt: 0

all: Done!

finished. total time: 0.049s

I am told that it should be relative to INFOversion-main, however there's no RUU available even remotely close to that version from what I can tell with all of my searching.

I have also tried to find the appropriate RUU by searching my CID (HTC__039) to no avail.

3. However I did find a Nandroid backup (which looked like it would be the correct one), and after unlocking my device, I am not able to flash boot or recovery, it just freezes on "sending 'boot' (16384 KB) and the same thing when trying to flash a custom recovery. I tried deleting the caches first, which didn't make a difference.

4. Then I thought maybe it would help if I activated S-OFF, but as it would appear, there's no method available to do so without going into my device and enabling USB debugging.

5. Then I tried this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317536, and after typing this cmd into fastboot: fastboot oem writecid 11111111 I get this error:

(The CID remains unchanged).

I have spent around 10 hours trying to fix my phone.

(I need it for work-related purposes).

Any attempt to help would be appreciated! I am not sure what else to try. :confused:

Please delete the serial no and imei from original post. I'm gonna look for an OTA for you...

Edit: no OTA for it

What recovery are you trying to flash? Your phone recognised in bootloader ie fastboot usb? What commands are you using?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdk333:
3834

I tried 2 recoveries.

recovery_2.24.980.2.img

openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.2-m7.img

I also tried re-naming them to recovery.img which didn't make a difference.

Correct.

cd \adbfastboot

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Also have tried flashing in the reverse order, where I would attempt to flash recovery first.

This is the nandroid backup I tried to use: "M7 CWM Nandroid Backup CID HTC__039 2.24.980.2".
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stovie_steve:
To flash recovery, type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

You looked like you were missing a word there in yours. And don't try and flash boot image.Just the recovery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrLizm:
Correct me if I am wrong...

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Edit: Your answer wasn't there when I posted this, [emoji12]
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdk333:
Thx for pointing that out, however that was just a typo. I entered the correct cmd into fastboot. Edited that post with the cmd that I used.

I am guessing my warranty would be void, now that I have unlocked it?

What would you do in this situation?

I don't see why this is such a difficult issue to solve :S

You would think that there would be better tools for recovery, yet something as simple as the OS goes bad, and I feel like I might need an entirely new phone all together..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrLizm:
You may or may not have checked these....

OEM USB cable

Current HTC drivers

Using USB 2.0 port

And a possible disabling of anti virus

Easy to over look these.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdk333:
Thanks! Your suggestions have helped me to figure out that I wasn't plugging the USB Cable directly into the PC, but rather through a USB extension cord.

This solved the issue of not being able to flash the boot.img or recovery.img, and have successfully done both of them.

However I face another issue, after flashing the boot.img it doesn't even get to the HTC One screen, it just freezes at a black screen and makes the HTC One noise after this screen:

HTC

powered by

ANDROID

I have also tried flashing the boot.img and then restoring factory settings from Recovery. The same thing happens.

I am 99.9% sure the Nandroid is the correct one, as the Nandroid correlates with my CID, and also it is written next to the download links that it is the Australia Unbranded one, which is what I have. I have also tried to flash a previous version of the Nandroid that correlates to my CID. A similar thing happens, where with this one the phone turns off directly after the screen that I have mentioned 6 lines up.

I am wondering if there is some kind of way I can transfer the entire Nandroid folder to my phone, in the hopes that I can restore it through TWRP Custom Recovery?

I have already tried, and it wouldn't let me transfer the folder to my phone, even tho I can browse my phone's files and folders from in My Computer and I can freely view the files with custom recovery installed, I just can't transfer anything.

I have since restored the stock recovery.

Any thoughts are appreciated, thanks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdk333:
I have attempted to install the Nandroid backup through custom Recovery tools (TWRP and Clockwork), but nothing worked. I think perhaps the Nandroid files that I have are not compatible with the recovery tools.

Here's what I have tried:

1. Through Clockwork, I tried to upload my Nandroid backup zip file through sideload, and then the file cancels about 80% after completion. I can't remember the error exactly but it was something very vague that didn't give a proper reason as to why it failed.

2. Using the adb push cmd to send the file to my device, which was successful, however when trying to install the zip file from Clockwork, I recieve this error:

Installing: /sdcard/clockworkmod/image3.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

Installation aborted.

3. Using the adb push cmd to send the file to my device, which was successful, however when trying to install the un-zipped folder from TWRP, the folder shows up fine, however no files show up inside that folder, so there's nothing to install in that folder. I created a back-up with TWRP of what was already on there, and the file names were similar, but the file types were different.

If nobody knows of any way that I can recover my phone, what would you say the next steps I should take is?

You would think that there would be a way to install this custom Nandroid backup that I have, however I can't figure out for the life of me a way that works.

It would be nice, because it doesn't look like there's any other method for me to use in order to recover my phone.

The Nandroid file was originally a .zip file, and then when extracted, this is what the extracted folder contains:

\M7 CWM Nandroid Backup CID HTC__039 2.24.980.2\2013-08-02.02.32.55\​

[IMG="Nandroid"]http://s2.postimg.org/jiyenzizt/nandroid.png[/IMG]
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
First, like said previously, you don't need to flash the boot.img at this point and I don't understand why you keep trying this. boot.img is the kernel of the phone and flashing this without a working rom is useless. Boot.img is included in the nandroid backup and it will be flashed when restoring it.

if you want to use a CWM nandroid backup then restore it using CWM recovery. If using a TWRP nandroid backup, restore using TWRP recovery.

you flash recovery using these commands:

fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Then you must adb push your nandroid backup to the correct folder on your phone to be able to restore it from recovery. You don't "flash" a nandroiid backup, you restore it from recovery. You might have to make a dummy backup first from your recovery to generate the backup path.

extract the archive containing the nandroid and push every files to the correct folder. Don't remember for CWM but for twrp this is /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/YOUR_SERIAL_NUMBER/DATE_OF_BACKUP/. Probably something similar for CWM, check after you have generated the backup path.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdk333:
Thanks, your reply helped me figure out that I was putting the Nandroid back-up in the wrong location, because CWM had made it seem much like the directory was a folder before where it was actually placed. Thx CWM now you made me look bad.

Anyway yeah, it's working now. I am guessing that I am now un-able to receive OTA updates?

I can live with 1 year old software.. At least I have a working phone again! OTA Updates would be really nice though.

Thanks a lot for all the replies! You all helped me slowly figure this **** out. I have thanked all of your posts. :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrLizm:
There are ways, I don't know if you are willing to go for S-Off after all your issues here. If you are, S-Off will allow you to get current firmware and update RUU to run the most current of custom roms. These processes are a bit more involved than simply doing custom recovery and flashing a zip. I suggest reading up on them, the good news for S-Off is either it works or it does not, I suggest firewater method per I had issues with rumrunner... rumrunner did work on an earlier M7 not sure what version of hboot but I then got my current one with hboot 1.56 and had to use firewater. You cannot do harm with S-Off attempts as long as you are thorough with your research. Get your self fully unlocked and there is no reason you have to run anything outdated.

Hello

I'd be REALLY grateful for some (easy to understand) help, please!

Long story, but my rooted GT-5830i was playing up, memory-wise, a tad so I restored it to factory settings and formatted the sd card. However, I forgot that I'd previously uninstalled the stock keyboard (desperate to claw back some storage space) as I use Perfect Keyboard; now I can't do anything!

Is there a way that I can reinstall this, or another keyboard, (or just reinstall Gingerbread maybe?) from my laptop or via the sd card?

I'm no expert so would really appreciate it if any advice treats me like a pretty dull turnip! :p

I saw a lot of 512MB RAM phones that are run faster and smother than my phone !

why ?!

I tried to :

1- update to the latest version

2- factory reset and format sdcard and extcard and earse everything

3- delete a lot of apps and disable a lot of apps

4- try another lanucher

5- delete all widgets

after factory reset ( after i did the update too ) i installed only important apps like facebook, messenger, whatsapp, soundcloud and the free ram always between 50~30 !

and i see other 512MB RAM phones that run the 4 apps and more without any lagg and still have half of the ram .. but my phone if i open only 2 or 3 tabs in browser it laggs and if i open only 2 apps like facebook and whatsapp .. and go to whatsapp to respond to a message in about a minute .. when i switch to facebook .. the app RELOADS again + laggggg all the time while typing

the software version is : 4.1.1 Jelly bean , Build : 11.3.A.3.1

and i saw some threads that the xperia e dual was faster when it was ICS :/
