THANK'S but i'm already try this . not step by step but mostly . the problem is

when i want to wipe data and any wipe give me error about mount or unmount or read only somewhere E partition ( but my E partition are mount and i'm trying to install the rom from here and myphone show me) THAT'S A PROBLEM

thank i try step by step like you but but read only or mount : can you help mw whit that ( i try to mount or unmount E partition from recovery but give error and do not do that)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechnoSparks:
"E" partition? Would you explain further about this? Did your recovery only show "E" partition error? I'll try my best to stay awake. It is 2 AM (GMT +8) right now.

Thorough explanations are extremely welcome. it could drastically help me on understanding the problem. Vague information are not.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayanafshan:
thank's alot

i try to explain clearly

first of all is this normal to go to recovery after 4 mins or when you go to sub menu it's take 15 mins or when i want to flash the any rom it's take 1 hour .

but there is a Error. i cant tell you what is it because i cant remember but i think some path about recovery somewhere in partition E ( readonly ) I want now to format my memory card and copy zip file and SU and try. if it happen to be error i write here word by word.

thank and wait..... if not i wait for you tomorrow.

:good::good::good::good::good::D:D:D:D:D
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechnoSparks:
Well it is weird to only know partition E.

No it is not normal for the recovery to consume that much time. As you said that it will give error, would you patiently retry and write here back the words appeared in the recovery? Write word by word and 100% exactly the same. No need to write them all but only the error part. that would help me to recognise what partition it is and at the same time could give you steps on remounting it readwrite.

You dont really have to format your memory card, unless you have a low storage sd card. If so, backup your data from the memory card as well if you will format it. Just a heads up only.

I have to sleep now. Do bear with me tomorrow. I would be glad to help you solve this problem. :)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayanafshan:
thank's man

i almost finish whit zip file and others and until 20min later try to flash from recovery

I certainly do it word by word of the ERROR :p:D

Wish me Luck :good:

i waiting for you Tomorrow .

I feel honoured by your thanks. Thank you to you too.. :angel:

But still, I have a one last method to wipe the phone through adb, but it seemed that you have finally handed to Sony, I guess this ends our struggle. I bet Sony will replace with a newer device though. But did they charged you?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayanafshan:
thanks man

yes i give it to sony and one week later they will send to me. yes definitely charge for ?$ !!!

but i think here is not place for money but for friendship , knowledge , learning and sharing .

as a curiosity if may please share whit me and other ADB mode for Wiping data. may help me and other in future .

appreciate your notice and THANKS VERY MUCH.

[COLOR="Green"]$[/COLOR] su
[COLOR="DarkOrange"]#[/COLOR] then execute the command below to wipe partitions

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eshoxx1982:
Hi there,

yesterday I flashed the latest nightly from CM11.

So far, so good.

But: performance isn´t the same, like on stock 38r

I know flashed the apks from the apps I need, to have CM11 like I want it to.

But, without all the google-stuff on it.

I have to say: Great!

But here is what I ask myself:

Is there a version of 38r, without google-stuff?

Cause CM11 can´t bee the same, like CM11s, just including the gapps g.e.

So, does anybody now about a 38r without google-stuff, but with same performance?

Thx
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
There's no such thing. If you really want to you could manually remove the apps you don't wish to have on your device. That will cause problems when you want to take an OTA though.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eshoxx1982:
Thx!

I already feared that it would "end like that".

But anyway.

CM11 is okay, I think I will stay there.

But, timmaaa:

Why would there be problems with OTA?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
There would be problems because OTA updates fail if you have any modifications to system files.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eshoxx1982:
Okay, I installed a fresh 38r, skipping google-registration at the first start-up.

Then delete/deactivate everything what sound like "google"...

Till now, everything is fine.

I tried to search for OTAs, searching did well. Just no new OTAs available.

System works fine.

Maybe it will work?

As long as I dont have to pay for what ever... :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
The phone will still function as a phone without the Google stuff. And you'll still be able to download OTA updates, but they'll fail when they try to install.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eshoxx1982:
Okay, do u think I could flash them manualy via TWRP?

If so and there are no other negativ points, I will give it a try.

Negativ thinks, g.e. looking to APN-problems that could cause a higher phone-bill:)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the Doctor:
If you had uninstalled them with System App Remover by Jumobile, when the next update came out, you could result them, update, then delete them again. That's worked for me since 25R.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Well, a few potential issues I see...

1) You're trying to install a stock rom from the OEM on a custom recovery

2) Your CWM is out of date for newer versions of Android

3) Your build.prop (located in /system) has a different product code which is why it gives you the Status 7 error

Haven't played with that particular phone, since it isn't offered where I live, but quite certain the main issue is number 1. OEM updates are meant to go through the stock recovery.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
So now I'm confused... You already have CWM installed, so obviously you've been through the process of installing a recovery. So you just need to find the stock recovery and install it and try the update zip again. You can't accept official updates when you are using a custom recovery. This is the same with EVERY android device. I really can't break it down any simpler as this is the most basic way of saying it.

[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Anyone having read my Definitive Pocket PC Backup Bible knows the reviewed (1.5.1) version of Spb Backup had severe problems with backing up PIN-protected Pocket PC’s in scheduled mode, which really reduced its usefulness.

Fortunately, the excellent Spb folks have fixed this problem (including some others) and released a new version of their backup application.

The new version passed all of my tests (I’ve made many tests to be absolutely sure) on password-protected Dell Axim x51v (A12), HTC Universal and HTC Wizard (AKU3.2).

Note that you don’t necessarily need to enter anything in the new Tools / Advanced Options / Phone / Automatically enter pin coder after scheduled backup and reboot (screenshot here) for the backup to succeed.

Verdict

Now that one of the major bugs (THE stumbling block for many users) have been fixed, Spb Backup has become a REALLY good alternative to both Sprite Backup and SKTools 3.x, my previous two most-recommended picks.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Korbey:
Hi all! like most I have joined with a problem :)

I Have an xperia SP-C5303

I successfully rooted the device with the Towelroot app, Then used the sony mobile flasher by Androxyde to flash cyanogenmod 10.2 onto my phone. This was all working fine.

I used CMW to install an update downloaded through cyanogenmod. When I rebooted the device it was stuck in a bootloop. The device connects top the computer in flash mode, but will not accept a flash because somehow "USB Debugging" is not enabled. It was obviously enabled before because I had already flashed the device.

ADB drivers are installed but to be honest Im a bit lost now. Does anyone have any ideas how to turn on usb debugging so that I can flash my phone again?

Korbey

I can connect to sony mobile flasher in flash mode but flashing fails at the end with the program saying "For flashtool, Unknown Sources and Debugging must be checked in phone settings" how can I activate these when in a boot loop?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechnoSparks:
I would like to know if your Xperia SP has its bootloader unlocked?

The error most likely appear because you have no drivers for Xperia SP. Yes you might said that you installed it already but let's try again. Navigate to the Flashtool installation directory, which is C:\Flashtool by default. Then go into drivers folder and run the installer therein. Please tick fastboot drivers and flashmode drivers. Scroll down a bit and find Common drivers for

Viskan

board. Tick that as well and continue the driver installation.

After everything is completed. Close Flashtool and open in again (in case you've disabled UAC, please run Flashtool as an administrator). Then retry to flash a stock ROM's .ftf file.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warpa:
Some HTC one users have been complaining of a purple camera. I have found why it has been happening. I live in HK so the summers are hot. Unfortunately this means my phone heats up and then the purple camera issue pops up.

However I went to the Ice Festival and it was dark inside and the issue didn't pop up

This issue is more likely to happen if you live in a hot climate. During winters in HK (13-18 deg C) this issue doesn't happen.

I'm starting this thread so that those with Purple Camera issue can understand what is happening.

Note that I have the affected module and this might not apply to those who had the camera module changed.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
HTC already confirmed some time ago this issue was caused by over heating of the camera module which needs to be replaced to rectify the issue 100%.

The camera module is not adequately heat protected from the main heat generating components of the device. i.e CPU and Battery etc.

If it goes away when the phone is cooled then it is just the early stages of the problem, overtime it will get much worse. Eventually when using the camera the whole screen and any photos you take will be covered in purple. Cooling the device may improve it in the short term but it's a hardware problem and requires a hardware fix ;)

Hello everybody, this is my firs post. I am an happy z3 owner coming from iphone.

I have a question regarding the managing of the SMS notification on the pull down bar (where you have all the notifications).

While for the emails I can open the line with the number of new message I have, on the sms notification I just have "new messages: 2" but i cannot find any way to see who is sending me the message or I cannot see any preview of the message.

The only thing I can do is switch to the sms application in order to see the preview and the sender name.

Am I doing something wrong? can you guys help me?

Ciao
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poldie:
Normally you just click on the "new messages: 2" line and it should take you to whichever app you use for that type of message (Hangouts, or whatever the stock one is called).
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matteo747:
Thanx for the answer. The probkem is that i would like to see who is sending me the sms without opening the default application. This is more bad when i sm using acdisplay for the lock screen, because i have to unlock phone to see the sender.

I just switch to hangouts as a default sms client and the thing are better niw because i can see the sender name and a partial preview of the sms!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poldie:
You could try Dashclock (free app, open source in fact), which supports a lot of plugins - there's a Hangouts extension there, and probably others which may show you more info, even from the lock screen.
