[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
Can you get to FastBoot Mode (With the phone off, plug it into the PC's USB port and immediately press & hold the UP volume key, the LED should go from Red to solid Blue.) If yes, Run Flashtool (installing it first, if necessary) and try to get to Flashmode (With the phone off, plug it into the PC's USB port and immediately press & hold the DOWN volume key, the LED should go from Red to off, but Flashtool will tell you that the phone is connected in FlashMode)

Have you flashed anything? The usual cause for the red flashing LED is by flashing a ROM or Kernel when you haven't unlocked the bootloader first.

OK, there are some ROMs and kernels which can be flashed on a locked bootloader.

Download an FTF for your phone from the FTF repository thread, and flash it using Flashtool.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] aarmath:
Before flashing, have you tried charging the phone through your computer's USB? See if that works.

Ok guys, I've decided to bring out my GT-P1000 from retirement and wondered what was currently the best and most stable rom to flash in order to bring it up to date. It's the GSM version if that makes a difference?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mollysue:
Hey ho my favorite forum. I'm afraid you're my only hope.

I've been unable to update my Cyanogenmod OS for almost a year now. I feel like I've tried everything. I just gave up and decided to stick with the outdated OS but now the phone doesn't ring anymore, the battery lasts half a day and everything about the phone is laggy.

I have CM 11-20140402 NIGHTLY with 4.2.2, HBOOT 1.55 TWRP 2.7.0.0 Rooted but S-ON. I don't know how it got to be S-ON because it was definitely S-OFF before.

So I cannot install any custom ROMs because I'm S-ON. I get the error message "Error executing updater binary in zip /sdcard/cmupdater/cm-11etcetc.zip. Somewhere I was told that I need S-OFF to prevent this so that's what I've been focusing on.

First thing I do is try Firewater. I do everything correctly and everything works until the last step: /data/local/tmp/firewater. I get "error, run firewater as root. su or FU!!!!!". I did su? it went through fine,

Ok fine, I can try something else. But here is the ****ing kicker. I cannot, under any circumstance, install a driver for my HTC Phone. When I connect it to my Mac, it just doesnt sense it. It charges, and I know that there is a connection there, but Sync Manager doesn't sense it.

So I finally managed to get a Windows computer. It doesn't sense it either! It makes that connection sound when I connect it, and it's under "Devices and Printers" but under "Unspecified" and there's an error message saying that there is no driver for this device. I've installed and reinstalled every file I've found, HTC Sync Manager, HTC Sync, HTCDriver_4.2.0.001.exe, I've tried to manually add it. Nothing works. The phone doesn't connect to any computer. Cyanogenmod installer doesn't sense it either. BUT it's listed under devices in adb.

So my question is I guess, how the hell do I install a custom CM ROM with S-ON and no connectivity to a computer except to adb? Stuff like Rumrunner/Moonshine require HTC drivers. Halp.

Do you have the M8 or M7? This is the M8 forum. Reason I ask you mention you've been stuck almost a year, when the M8 was only released 7 months ago, and with 4.4.2 when you mention 4.2.2 (and CM will usually not step backwards).

Verdict

As with many other direct Palm (and Symbian – see for example Lonely Cat Games’ products like ProfiMail and LGC Jukebox) ports (see for example my review of mVoice 5 by MotionApps, which suffers from exactly the same problem – that is, a title that has been one of the best on the Palm can’t really be compared to the commercial alternatives on the Pocket PC), this application isn’t really a match for current top-of-the-line, commercial (!) Pocket PC sound recorders like Resco – the Pocket PC platform is just far stronger, software-wise, than Palm.

However, given that it’s free (and I’m comparing it to commercial titles like Resco Audio Recorder), I still recommend it, particularly if you’re looking for a one (as opposed to most alternative Pocket PC recorders which almost all require two (consequent) presses) button-press application if you can live with the (current) limitations and problems (no CF, no support for side buttons of non-Phone devices, very high CPU usage, lack of screenoff, long activation time when it needs to be loaded etc.). Hope the problems will soon be ironed out in subsequent versions.

Flash the TWRP KK ROM in post#1 and retry. You can flash CWMv6CTRv2.5 too if you want.

But the update process has some details:

- new firmware: flash recovery original KK ROM in post#1

- if you deleted any application by system ROM you not can update because script stop that's

So...reflash ROM original.

You can make the backup of the your ROM and after update can restore it...

I'm trying upload 2 files zip to flash with CWM or TWRP for update ROM based on v31 with ROOT...but let me time to put links for L100i and L100a.

*please don't use Rom manager apk. Use the flashfy or mobileuncletools to flash recovery original, CWM or TWRP and with this flash update
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p137:
I found out I in fact removed a couple of stock apps, so I restored them (I had a backup) and tried again... Same error.

I also tried with CWM 2.5 and the original KK, but no luck again. It just says "Installation aborted" without any detail.

I guess flashing the original ROM should work for sure, but it needs a bit more time...

Thank you anyway for the advice :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lopestom:
Hmmmm... Im understand now.

So..flash recovery original JB and try..

This errors happen because you remove apps...

The second option is: flash file unzipped clockworkmod...(the last version)...zip with CWMv2.2 or CWMv2.4 ....

Look to spoiler option: BLPv15 Anatel backups

Restore it and try update with recovery original.....

I tried Kingo root but it didn't work for me, as I understood by the text running on the phone, because I don't have the original recovery (I installed original_JB to do the update).

Finally I tried with SP flash tool but it seems I cannot get the MTK driver installed properly (it gives some code 10 error after the installation completes).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lopestom:
If you has CWM or TWRP yes you can install the patch...

If you are with JB ROM try FRAMAROOT mentioned in post#1.

The problem to ROOT in device is virus suppose and this in not true. On the PC is same problem and you should disable OS security and disable antivirus.

But for me is the same process with patch or application. But for Framaroot application have success on the JB ROM is need enable USB DEBUGGING and enable settings-security-Unknown sources! Set ROOT in FRAMAROOT anf Reboot manually....

If you have the original recovery I think this patch not work...is your choose!

If you have CWM/TWRP my suggest to you is that install the KK ROM LT20 localized in post#7. This is a v31 KK ROM and little modified... If have update future by BLU this will updating normally.

I see other user with more partition patch happen this error to update binaries...

You should apply this...option Normal and reboot manually... If this not work is need look something that you made or changed in your device.

You can install LT20 and if this has error or bootloop... Is because your device has very modification as change partition!! You should changing to original ROM and options by factory.....

When you flash the LT20 yes you can restore your data (not data JB ROM) and not for lost ROOT because it's on the other folders....

You should read the instructions inside the zip file.

To have the storage increase is necessary:

Have your device with ROOT and custom recovery (CWM / TWRP) installed.

Root Blu life play mini like this:

Download file from here:https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9DmzLnUt5tuNzJyc3NNTHVXdUE/view?usp=sharing

unzip and find three more zip files, one is drivers. I don't know which ones did the magic cause I was screwing around for days so just install em all like I did.

Then install and run Vroot with USB debugging enabled....That'll get you root.

Then run the beautiful twrp magic installer I found somewhere else, you'll be warned about potentially losing your IMEI due to space issues, if concerned, back up with mobileuncle tools first. I didn't lose my IMEI though.

after TWRP installs, install supersu from the app store and update the su binary through recovery when prompted or using the supersu update zip through recovery (not included) and you're all done.

First is need the stock ROM! You can even remove almost all the necessary files from your device. Obviously need ROOTed device and knowledge.

If your ROM is KitKat so that's easy. But if the ROM is Lollipop so that's more hard.

I mentioned I used certain apps previously on the G3. Should have been more clear on that. This is for the note 4 which I now own.
