I deeply request to you please send link to solve this problem. I think understand the my problem.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sle314:
I've searched far and wide and can't find the info I'm after.

How can I find out if my bootloader is locked or not?

And can this method be applied to a locked bootloader or will it result in a brick?

How does the auto CF root method fare with locked bootloaders?

Does anyone know of a clean firmware that doesn't have any carrier applications and bloat, which can be put on the phone via Odin?

Does unlock via IMEI unlock the bootloader?

Thanks for any help

This device has no locked bootloader
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sle314:
just put in a SIM card from another carrier in my S5 mini G800F and it asked fir an IMEI unlock code, so I'm guessing it's locked after all...
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RVR:
There's a difference between a locked bootloader and a region lock... A region lock will prompt you for a pin if the sim is changed .... And a locked bootloader means that you can't flash a recovery or ROM without unlocking it

This phone doesn't have a locked bootloader. ..
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sle314:
finally got some info i couldn't find,

thanks for the clarification.

is it safe to use cf auto root ANH2 version on my phone which is currently ANJ2?

is region lock a factor when in rooting and flashing?

thanks again!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RVR:
no region lock wont affect rooting or flashing in any way ... you need to make sure that the cf auto root recovery is for the specific device and firmware

Stock Recovery G800F

Hey, I have found that you placed stock recovery on dropbox. I need to download it again but its deleted. May I ask for reupload?

Anyway. I wanted to go back from CM12 to stock (I found this incomplete and with many bugs).

I did backup of the stock ROM by using TWRP and than I wanted to restore it. That rom has stucked in bootloop. I used Auto-root recovery (which is attached to ODIN) - no change.

Will it works with original stock rom or I must use another way?

Thanks

After I wake up I notice that my phone has its bluetooth turned off(after leaving it on before sleeping). I use Jawbone UP24 which is linked for bluetooth unlock so it is annoying to wake up and fiddle with my unlock code because the bluetooth turned off. The most annoying thing though, is that it won't let me re-enable my bluetooth without resetting the phone. Thoughts?

Upgrade to V2.6

I "upgraded" to v2.6 beta1 from v2.51. With V2.51 with overclocking and Nexus7 spoof. After "upgrade" I had to reload GAPPS to get Playstore to work. As an aside, I also reinstalled the Nexus7 spoof. I also use SetCPU to manage overclocking. I am not sure that I have gained anything over v2.51 but am quite pleased with the performance.

Thanks dolorespark.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] dolorespark:
You got a unified kernel (no more separate installation) that uses less power than the previous overclocked version. At speeds up to 1.3ghz, it's the same as the previous standard kernel. The GPU's default speed has been upped to 448mhz from 416mhz at little cost; however, if you overclock it to 520mhz, it will use more power than previously. Also, if you use exFAT-formatted SD cards, you should find their performance is significantly improved.

BTW... you really shouldn't use the Nexus spoof from a previous version - other info in the file (build.prop) such as the version number may be incorrect.

Wiimote older and newer (motionplus) pairing correctly

Hello,

With the latest beta version of the rom I was able to successfully pair the older and the newer (motionplus) wiimote with the sero 7 pro. Had to use the Wii classic corded controller connected to the wiimote for game use. Was able to play vice city with the classic controller without having to change any of the button mappings.

Hope this helps.

Active speakers

Hello, I noticed something peculiar about my sero 7 pro and was wondering if anyone else has this problem.

When I hit the power button to turn ON the lockscreen (from sleep) and then tap it again to sleep, I hear a low continuous hum or hissing sound from the speakers (barely audible). It's not that big a deal since I can fully unlock to home screen and then put it to sleep (which stops active speakers).

I only bring this up because it's a noticeable drain on my battery when my tablet is on sleep. I'm using current dopa 2.6/philz touch. If it's just me, I'll probably backup and re-flash again sometime later.

Stock AOSP Rom

[MENTION=5094650]dolorespark[/MENTION]

You think you can release a version of this ROM (5.0 Lollipop) that is completely AOSP? I don't like having third party software such as SU, Xposed, GravityBox, etc pre-installed. Let alone not having selinux in enforcing mode. It would be nice to see another build for it that retains a completely original AOSP ROM (other than the tweaks in order to get it running on the Sero 7 Pro).

Buggy Overclocking

Just a few things I've found on the newest beta 5.0

Hey dolorespark,

I've been using the AOSP 4.4.4 on my Sero 7 pro for some time now and loved it. Currently I'm waiting for my Moto G 2013 to get the official Android Lollipop from Motorola, but I saw that the love has already come to the Sero 7 thanks to you. Grats on that. I installed the newest beta on my Sero 7 Pro last night (AOSP 5.0.0_r7) and I have only noticed a few things of mention that you might not be aware of:

The wifi status page (link speed and what have you) is corrupted in portrait, but fine in landscape.

Periodically, the lock/power button hard resets the tablet instead of locking the screen.

The last thing I've noticed so far is that the notification bar will overtake the soft buttons at the bottom of the screen while in certain apps, one example being Google Play. If you swipe down the notification drawer, the bar at the top will clone itself over the buttons at the bottom while the drawer is open, and will disappear once the drawer is closed. Saving a screenshot of this occuring was impossible as the screenshot removed the bar and restored it after it had been saved.

The attachments are of the statusbar issue and the wifi page curruption. Nothing game breaking just a few things i've noticed playing around with this build.

Problems installing fastboot in Post #1 of main thread

I am trying to follow the instructions in the #1 post of this thread to install 4.4.2. on a stock Sero 7 Pro and cannot get this to work to install the philz.img file:

When I open Device Manager in Win 7 Home Premium there is nothing like "Other Devices->Fastboot" listed. I tried Add Device from the Control Panel and it found nothing.

I already ran >step0-DoItAll.bat< from this thread and it completed everything sucessfully.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Steve Ahola

P.S. I have been running DOPA 2.20 on a different Sero 7 for several months now and it has been great! BTW I have tried several different CPU tuners and I think that the CPU tuner in 3C Toolbox (formerly Android Toolbox) seems to work the best as it controls all 4 processors independently. I use the premium version but the free version also has this module.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Pow_2k:
Is your Sero booted to fastboot mode?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] dolorespark:
After reading this, I tried changing speeds many, many times and never had any problems.

I don't know if this applies here, but in general, don't judge the ROM's performance based on your first bootup after installation. It has to do a tremendous amount of work to get set up, and not all of the loose ends get tied up until it has had a chance to shut down and restart. Do some minor config stuff on that first boot, then reboot before putting it through its paces.

I noticed that and thought it odd but it didn't really register with me as a bug. If it is, I'll have to leave it to Google to fix. Chances are that it will be many months before Google has all these little bits and pieces taken care of - and maybe as much as a year before Lollipop comes across as really solid and reliable.

If you already installed the drivers for ADB, then there's nothing else to be done - Fastboot uses the same driver. As someone else asked, are you in Fastboot mode? Disconnect any USB cable, hold down Volume-Up and Power, and wait for the word "Fastboot" to appear. Nothing further will appear on the screen - it's all done from the PC.

I'll have to look at this util to see what it offers, but I really doubt it can control each core independently. All four use the same clock, so if one is running at, say, 1.3ghz, all of the other cores that are online have to run at the same speed.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] sssteeve:
Thanks for your quick reply! I finally got ADB working by running your BAT file a second time. I still couldn't get Philz installed through ADB so I ended up installing CWM 6.0.4.5 from a different site and then followed your instructions to replace that with Philz. (CWM 6.0.4.5 aborted 1/2 way through install of your ROM which kinda freaked me out but Philz made everything good.

Many thanks not just for your excellent ROMs but also for the great instructions that you post here on XDA. I really like ROMs with the fewest bells and whistles which give the apps you are running more horsepower. BTW TKruzze's minimal GAapps files make your ROMs even more sleek. Its like my Sero tablet died and went to heaven! :cool:

Steve

P.S. As for 3C Toolbox (formerly Android Tuner) while all CPUs must be set to the same frequency as you said the app can put them offline independently as needed. I will post links to screenshots showing that. I've tried CPU Tuner, Set CPU, Juice Defender and ROM Toolbox Pro on 10 different Android tablets and I've gotten the best battery life when on or on standby with Android Tuner. (I leave some of them on just to test battery draw in standby mode and I have gotten over 18 days on one of them which would go dead after a day or two before I rooted it.)

The free version has ads that pop up when you are finished with the other modules but since the CPU tuner runs in the background there is no difference between the free and paid versions. But I really like their file explorer which does work better in the paid version.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] QuickNET Tech:
First things first. I have a US SERO 7 pro running dopa 500 v2 (5.0.1). I am using CWM 6.0.4.5 which is se Linux enabled .

I am just curious if there is a way to dual boot this tablet. I know this tablet is low on ROM at around 5.5 GB usable, however the ability to quickly switch between 5.0.1 & 4.4.4 would be AMAZING!

I love Android lollipop on this tablet and wish to keep it permanently, regardless of its downfalls and bugs that Google may or may not ever fix. I do not really in any way wish to go back to KitKat as my main mobileOS, however sometimes I would like the stability and customization options that Kit Kat allows (such as xposed modules which are unfortunately broken due to Android Runtime (which I've heard may or may not be fixed)(which of course you already know about, and have mentioned in your various lollipop releases).

I also love to show people such as friends and family what lollipop has to offer and the bright, but currently buggy, future of Android. Unfortunately having to restore my tablet between 4.4.4 and 5.0.1 is a bit of a hassle just to demo 5.0.1.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

P.S. I've never dual booted before so you will have to explain it to me as if I'm stupid although I am in NO WAY actually stupid lol what I am is ignorant in certain things such as this and wish to learn.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jerbear294:
Unfortunately it's not possible. In order to do so one would have to make a multirom patch and nobody has done that. The /system partition would also need to be resized up a bit.

Well, thank you so so much for actually responding. I was begining to think that no one was actually going to answer my question. I began preparing to ask the same question in the main thread. I am a little disappointed that I won't be able to dual boot this tablet unless someone actually decides to make that a reality.

On another note how much work would that I actually take? Would an experienced developer such as [MENTION=5094650]dolorespark[/MENTION] be able to do it easily?

Hello All, I've been monitoring this thread for a long time, and have decided

its time to pull the trigger on the 4.4.4 rom. I am currently at the original

stock rom, after the one update Hisense released, rooted with the xboxexpert

root stuff. Before flashing the Dopa rom I would really appreciate some answers

(reasurrance?) to noob questions:

1. Since the thread went from V2.6 release to Lollipop so quickly: are those of

you who flashed the 2.6 version finding it stable? Pretty much everything

other than Miracast work?

2. Can the Philz Touch v6.58.0 recovery read/restore cwm touch recovery v6.0.3.2

backups (the cwm recovery version from xboxexperts original root thread)? Or

do I need to immediately run a new backup after installing philz before flashing?

3. Any of you using Titanium Backup, will it be able to read the philz

recovery backups? Does using Titanium Backup to restore (non system) programs

and data from a pre rom flash TB backup work okay? I have Xposed framework &

GravityBox already installed so after the rom flash, will I be able to restore

app data only for Xposed Framework (installer?) and GravityBox using Titanium Backup

or do I need to copy down all my settings for these and avoid restoring the data?

4. I turned off play store automatic updates almost as soon as I bought the Sero (8/16/2013)

so all my Google Apps are what was on here stock and never updated them. If I use

Titanium Backup to restore Account info from the pre rom flash TB backup, will the

new version of the Google apps I get and flash using the link in the OP (especially play store)

correctly link to my wallet so purchased apps will still show as purchased and my play store

gift card balance will be preserved and accessible?

5. Other than Google Apps, Xposed framework, and GravityBox, any other pretty standard apps

(i.e. Viper4Android, etc) any of you know of that I should AVOID restoring using Titanium

Backup?

Any and all responses to these questions will be viewed with huge, disgustingly close to groveling

appreciation! (I really don't wanna have to hand copy a gazillion settings and reinstall all my programs, here's hoping...).

Is your tablet running stock rom or is it running a custom rom

Also do you have a custom recovery
