[Motorola Droid RAZR] AgNO3_92:
On European network, is better XT912 or XT910 ROM for XT912 phone?

Hello everyone, I'm new in the forum an I have a question, but before I tell you the story of my phone to better understand the situation.

I am owner of the RAZR (XT910) from the mid-2012 and at the end of 2012 I have bought a RAZR MAXX (XT912) with broken screen from the USA.

Therefore I converted my RAZR to MAXX swapping battery frame, battery, inner frame (the one with antennas, I also swapped the different antenna) and the back cover. I finally got a fully functional XT910 RAZR MAXX until June 2014, when the phone began to freeze.

The pone was on stock Motorola Jelly Bean, rooted and with some Xposed modules. Thinking about software problem, I restored the phone to default but the problem continued to recur. Unable to determine the cause of the problem (I also checked the flash memory via ADB with e2fsck with no damaged blocks reported), I flashed the CM11 ROM on the stock slot of SafeStrap. The phone became smoother but the freezes/black screens were still there. I went ahead continuing to update the rom hoping for a solution, but the feeling that it was a hardware problem became stronger and stronger. Yesterday, tired of the ever more frequent freezes, I decided to swap the motherboard of the phone with the one of the XT912 knowing that it could operate on the European network. I swapped the motherboards (that are glued to the screen, why Motorola, why? :eek:) and put the antenna as it was originally. I finally got a XT912 RAZR MAXX with the screen of XT910.

After, I restored the data partition, the android secure partition and manually the internal memory; next I flashed the last Nightly for XT912 with mini PAGapp (not the full because the system partition on XT912 is 636MB and there isn't enough space, on XT910 it is 770MB; again: why Motorola, why? :crying:).

After rebooting the phone and have discovered that my transplant of backups (done as a butcher :D) had worked, I noticed that the phone doesn't recognize my SIM card. Searching the Internet I found that only with the original ROM the phone will operate on European networks and, for other ROMs, is necessary to apply a patch. After the flash of the patch the pone work correctly with the SIM and the problems of freezes are disappeared, indicating that it was a hardware problem (I hope :)).

Today, driven by curiosity, I tried to flash the latest Nightly for XT910 in the first slot of SafeStrap to see if with it the XT912 motherboard will operate on the European network, and it did!

Now, the question is: for a xt912 on European network, is better the XT912 ROM with the patch or directly the XT910 ROM without it?

Waiting for an answer from someone more experienced than me, I apologize for the length of the post and for my bad English.

Thanks,

Marco.

You did a good job in here. Thanks Welder. I don't have an XT910 so this is stuff I cannot answer. I am really glad that you stepped up, saw something you could handle, and took care of it. That's really good stuff. Good English or not, you did great buddy. ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
Thank you my friend :)

Btw,it doesn't matter if it's XT910 or XT912,if you want to flash CM11 with BMM,the META-INF folder must be replaced...

So I've had an issue for months that my ringtones and notifications didn't show up. I was only stuck with anything from a theme or the hangouts notification sound or call. I messed with the permissions and locations of the files and managed to get the ringtones and notifications to show up finally but i lost the UI sounds. Can someone give me the locations for Ringtones, Notifications, and UI sounds, and what the permissions for each should be set to? That would be amazing. Thanks in advance!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
System/media/audio

Folders:

Alarms

Notifications

Ringtones

Ui

Audio format: ogg

Permissions: r-w-rr

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Very good Welder. Also you have custom sounds on /sdcard0/ in the following folders:

Alarms

Media

Notifications

Ringtones

root sdcard_r rwxrwx---

Media in these folders come from apps, Facebook, and custom ringtones like you make with RingDroid.

Really surprised you have these issues. To fix the system permissions, you can do a "Dwillian Dump" update. This will wipe out the /system partition and replace it with a fresh set of files and permissions.

Dwillian Dump:

I did this for 10/16 and had very good results. But I did not do the optional play service zip file. Wiping the /system partition and allowing the new rom update to replace it should put back all the proper permissions for it.

EFS Pro does not work on my S5830. Have also tried various apps from the play store. I paid for " EFS backup *samsung*" and got the message "Nothing to back up. Can't find ESF partition". I want to install CM11 over Gingerbread but want to backup the IMEI first, as nearly all threads suggest. Is there anything out there guaranteed to work? Phone is rooted and CWM recovery has done full backup but does not backup the IMEI in a way that it can be restored on its own, as I understand it.

Any advice appreciated.

Don't worry about EFS, it's untouched when you flash Galaxy Ace's rom ;)

hello

i have rooted 4.4.3 with stock version

i recently noticed that thw compass doesn't show the right north. i think its from day one. i checked and according to phone tester i have magnetic field sensor but every app that use it always get zero data.. did someone faced fhis problem before?

thank you
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yardc28:
Having the same issue...Just received my warranty replacement M8. The old one was 4.4.2 and rooted. This one is 4.4.3, unrooted, and any compass apps read 0uT magnetic field.

Worth noting: switched to the ART architecture a few days ago. I never did see if it worked before I switched. Are you on ART or Dalvik? Also, I have this heavy screen protector on it...it's like a sheet of tempered glass. I'm afraid to take it off because it was so tough to get on perfectly. Do you have one too?

EDIT: Just tested my sensor using the #*#*3424*#*# or whatever it is...sensor works fine. When I place a strong magnet over my screen, it turns off (as it should, thanks to DotView). However even with that powerful magnet right next to my phone, it reads 0uT

Hey,

I have been using my B&W P5's with 3 button control and mic with my Nexus 4 quite happily until i upgraded to the Z3c, however, now the volume controls don't work and the middle button only raises the volume, does anyone know if its possible to fix this, or even to reconfigure the middle button to skip instead of just raise the volume?

I don't hold out much hope in getting the volume controls to work. I've tried a couple of apps (Headset Button Controller) that claim to do this but no luck so far.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattdm:
I have a similar issue. I've been using a Samsung headset similar to the one that comes with the Galaxy S4, with a three button configuration. The volume buttons actually work, but the play/pause button only raises the volume like with yours.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AKZam:
I have never managed to get volume control working with any android phone I've ever had. Really sad and quite stupid if you ask me. Some headphones that have apps obviously allow it, but using those third party apps has never worked for me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harboe:
Will listen in here, since I to have a three button headset that doesn't work. And the one I have from LG G2 turns up the volume with the middle button as well. And one tried the Sony headset on the Play Store?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghtop:
All my headphones with 3-button controls that are made for Android work as expected so far with the Z3C - with the HTC RC E240 giving the best quality to price ratio.

You can use the Sony Smart Key app to re-map the middle button. If all three buttons actually register presses in apps like JAYS Headset Control or Headset Button Controller, you should be able to re-map the volume keys too with those apps.

Of course no 'Made for iPhone' branded ones will typically work, as the volume controls feature patented Apple tech and custom wiring. Presses of the volume buttons will just not register at all, and can't therefore be re-mapped.

Any Bluetooth headset controls should work fine with everything.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragnorok161:
I have the exact same headphones as you. I'm super disappointed the controls don't work. I tested and the microphone works but controls are the same as yours.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sim87:
Hey thanks for the suggestion, i just tried the sony smart key app without any luck, by setting all the button options to do the same thing, lower the volume, i still wasnt sble to stop my P5's middle key from only raising the volume :(

Sound is excellent, too!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w0mbat:
These look quite interesting, do you need to use any other software or do they just "work" with the Sony Walkman player?

Also how do the buttons map to the functions? Does the middle button do all of the Pause / Skip Title, receive / end call functions whilst the buttons that look to have track skips icons actually do volume instead?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XQC:
It's exactly like that :)

This headset works out of the box, doesn't need any 3rd party app.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w0mbat:
Thanks XQC, just bought a set :)

For anyone in the UK, I can confirm that the HTC RC E242's sold by Amazon UK themselves (they show as enhanced in the extra detail towards the bottom of the page) have track skip buttons that actually control the phone's volume.

Hi, just wondering if the E240 works fine out of the box as well. Or there was some tweaks for the updated E242 to let them work?

No tweaks, they've always just worked OOB.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frichjof:
Alternative

Might not be the perfect solution but it's an alternative . Since I was really missing the three button control I decided to try it this way.

There are small bluetooth controls that Sony's brought out that do the job and depending on wich one you might get it has even more functionalities.

I got the SBH20 ( just google it ;) ) for 20€ in Germany and am now able to use whatever headphones I want - Best solution for me seeing as I was very pleased with the Sennheiser headphones I had and didn't really want to change.

Thought I'd share it - maybe it'd suit you to :)

Hi guys I'm using the "Nocs NS500 ALUMINUM (ANDROID)", the website of Nocs says: "Sony Xperia Z1/Z2/Z3 - No support for 3-button remotes with 4 poles." It's possible to change vol. and sometimes if i fast push the middle button it skips to the next title. At my old HTC One X the right and left buttons changed the title and the middle one pause/play.

Im using PowerAmp and tried Sony Smartkey but it didn't worked. Is there any solution that the remote will work like on HTC or do u know other tools to try out?

Edit: Or is there a way to turn of the remote?

[HTC One X] T3nd3rB33£:
Hi just read the thread properly, I have confused you in my pm, Thant is right, your on hboot 1.36 so you need my nand not glenbrownies. This is the stock nand from before the jb update which has the hboot version 1.1? You will need to update in settings about phone check for updates and you'll then have sense 5 installed.

You can install a nand which has a lower hboot version but not a nand that has a higher hboot version.
[HTC One X] GX45:
No worries. Thanks a million for the help :)

Can I just get one last noob question out the way - in the nandroid backup folder, are they both the stock boot.img and recovery.img I need to flash after restoring? Or do I need to find a separate stock boot & recovery img?
[HTC One X] GX45:
I've successfully reverted back to stock. Only issue I have now is that the official OTA update won't install. It downloads and boots into the stock recovery, then about a third of the way up the progress bar the process stops and the recovery icon changes to the red triangle with the exclamation mark in it.

I've also tried it again after doping a factory reset with no luck. Any experience with this happening?
[HTC One X] Thant:
you must to put the stock recovery for 3.14 base
[HTC One X] GX45:
I've flashed the stock recovery & still no joy. Also tried flashing the 'firemware.zip' file from the OTA and trying to install the it manually with no success, either.
[HTC One X] Thant:
take the recovery.img from firmware.zip and flash it report back the backup must be with the same numbers like your
[HTC One X] GX45:
Just flashed the recovery from the firmware.zip file & the OTA update fails at same stage.

My bootloader is unlocked, should it be relocked for this to work?

Edit: Relocked bootloader & tried with the same result. I noticed the hboot img file in the 'firmware' zip is a higher version than mine (1.36) ... Would it be worth flashing this then trying again?
[HTC One X] Thant:
don't use the recovery from OTA update use previos one or this for your main version and must be recovery for your main version

other way is to lock the bootloader flash firmware.zip then flash custom rom or stock nandroid backup. But you need to see your main version again after flashing the zip

Hi people!

I need someone who has the aforementioned files to gently hand me, because I was messing up with root uninstalling apps with a app named root uninstaller, and I had the unfortunate luck of the app being bugged and instead of clicking on the app I wanted to uninstall, it choosed the next app (which was the Contacts app) and voila, I accidentally clicked on the uninstall button, no going back. Now I can't dial anyone or add contacts.. Because I simply don't have any valid Contacts apk. Any suggestion to solve this irritating problem is welcome! I want to stray away as much as possible from ROM Flash/Reflash or factory reset so don't suggest me that unless there is really no option.
