Which firmware we have to flash

which firmware to be flashed to get 4.4.4 for indian z ultra.

please provide link
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Kingmajnu:
but Why???

But Why We Have TO use Flash Tool to flash the z ultra and use latest updates?

Why sony cant put latest firmware updates for z ultra in INDIA?? Just Why??

Any Problem With Indian Users?

all z series got 4.4.4 but still we havnt that updates.

So, Whats The Plan Of Sony Xperia's??

:cyclops:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
It's just quicker to update manually at this point. Sony probably has a reason for not releasing the update in India. It could well be some carrier issues (all firmware versions has to pass through carriers first, and requires testing). We don't know, and instead of spending time speculating on something that we will never know, you can download and install the update manually and continue with your life :)

You want it? Go ahead and grab it. It's that easy.

why?? why??? but why??????
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fundoosite:
Can we Flash HongKong 4.4.4 using flash tool?

[MENTION=4775164]scorpion_byte[/MENTION] can we flash 4.4.4 from HK by using flash tool and again if required come back to India version by flashing indian rom. I understand with this I will loose the data.

Any advantages of going to 4.4.4

can anyone build a rom for nvidia tegra note , it have all the sources required.
[P3600 General] Nadavi:
Ok,

The solution is simply to apply a thin layer of nail polish on the problematic areas.

This is unseen and solves the problem.

This works fine!

Nadavi.
[P3600 General] drewy:
are u suggesting a grey nail varnish ? or a clear one before the paint starts peeling?
[P3600 General] Nadavi:
Yes

yes, Before it starts peeling.

Nadavi
[P3600 General] SecureGSM:
may be it will stop peeling of painting.. I am not saying it will not, but will definitely invalidate device warranty.
[P3600 General] Nadavi:
i don't see how it can damage the warranty.

NAdavi
[P3600 General] drewy:
don't think the invalidated warranty will be a major issue in the UK, since it appears that it's not worth the paper it is written on :(
[P3600 General] SecureGSM:
applying any permanet layer of chemical substance can lead to refusal to repair device under manufacturer's waranty.

Your milage may vary...
[P3600 General] jack_ass:
you can't even see it...it's a one millimeter transparent nail polish...its external and if you really want to you can peel it with your nail (its not easy but it can be done).

this is not an irreversible process.
[P3600 General] prsnow:
...Get the white one.
[P3600 General] drewy:
if only it were that easy :)
[P3600 General] Mikroft:
How about peel it all off so it's nice and shiney? :D
[P3600 General] akillez80:
Any suggestions on how to do this safely? Mine is peeling a little bit...but I think it's getting worse day by day.
[P3600 General] SecureGSM:
Sugar cube? ;)
[P3600 General] akillez80:
Well...i'm a total n00b at this. I love the P3600 but noticed the peeling and joined on the forum to get some ideas. Has anyone done this already with photos to see what it looks like? The thought of sending it in for a few weeks seems totally crazy. Plus, I bought it from some small phone store that doesn't seem totally up on repairs and the like. Prefer to take care of it myself.
[P3600 General] SecureGSM:
you can use sugar cube to scratch the painting off. it will not damage the underlying layer of paint. Old trick, but works well.
[P3600 General] chickyd:
anyone have any pictures of after the sugar cube trick or with the nail polish on?
[P3600 General] banesi:

im curious about changing my rom and rooting it...

will i be able to change the screen resolution so when i mirror it and play a video its full screen? (at the moment i am getting black borders)

are there any features that don't work?

thank you guys
[Asus Transformer TF701] HeartWare42:
Technically, you can change the screen resolution when you install custom ROM (or root it), but you probably won't get rid of the black borders, as the TF701 is a 16:10 device and your screen is only 16:9.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWolfer22:
Hi guys since this morning i notice that I have a problem with google apps, when I open any of google apps I get a message saying "No conection". I had the same problem some time ago on another ROM but I got it solved, the problem is that I do not remember how.

I tried to install new gapps or any other older, but nothing. I have network connection, other applications (not of google) works fine.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechnoSparks:
I usually fix it by wiping system and flash the ROM then gapps again. Though this fixed my problem, yours might be different.

Please make sure that you don't mess with play services in any ways. I once also had the problem but with different cause, it was caused by Greenify. If you greenify Play Services, please degreenify it.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cesp-94:
hi guys, i already searched for a thread of someone with the same issue, but i haven't found anything on the whole internet (maybe it's just because i'm nervous as sh*t)... please let me know if i did wrong

the problem is: yesterday i was using regularly my Nexus 5, but suddenly i wasn't able to turn it on again. Just like a second before i was using it, and then it won't wake up. Now it is still turned off, i can't wake it up in any way, i tried every combination of keys, i tried holding on the power button for more than a minute, i tried pushing it hard, i tried everything. The only thing i'm able to do is plugging it on the charger, then it goes on a bootloop with the word "google" and a small vibration (just as it's like to turn it on) and then after a second the screen becomes black again, and this happens continuously untill i unplug it (i tried even for 2 hours and it still do like that). It is just like it wants to wake up, but then it is turned off, and on, and off, and on...

when he does like that i tried holding the vol down button just to try to enter the recovery mode, but even when i achieve to enter it, it still turn off so i can't decide what to do. Every guide i read on the web tells me to backup, then to erase all data, or something similar... but the problem is that i can't even access recovery mode, so that i'm not able to do anything if the phone is turned off completely.

i already called for the warranty, i have a completely stock phone so it's not a problem and i think they will change my phone, but i'm really worried this will erase all the data i have in my sd, and i would like to know if there's a way to copy what's inside the memory of the phone without turning it on

sorry guys but i'm really depressed, i've bought the phone on january... not even a year and i've wasted 350€
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
So, first question have you tried plugging into a computer? You may be able to pull some files off.

Second, was any of your stuff backed up using cloud storage, such as google drive? If not... You have my sympathy.

What app(s) were you running when it "Died"?[Edit: Died]

So you are completely stock, no root, no custom recovery, no nothing?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cesp-94:
1) yes i tried: it does the same as if i plug it into the charger (google and vibration for a second, then turned off again, repeatedly). I can't access the data from my pc with the way i was used before (i could copy data only if the phone was on)

2) i use dropbox, google drive, and others, but not with the syncronization (i decided when and what to upload) so there's a lot of things that now aren't accessible and i'm scared i'll lose

3) well i wasn't using anything when it died... i think the cronometer was running, maybe whatsapp... recently i downloaded ePSXe for android with a couple of ROMs, but for a whole week or two i never had problems using it

4) yes completely stock, the only thing i did was abiliting the developer options (but a looong time ago, and i never changed them, i was only curious). With my old smartphone i used to play a lot with custom roms, but now i wanted to keep my nexus clean at least until the end of the warrancy

news from the google service: they told me some procedures to do, any of them work. They told me that their warrancy works like that: first they will send me another nexus 5 (not new, only a refurbished one) for the price of a new phone, then i have to send them my old phone. When it arrives, they will refurbish it, and they will give me back my 350€.

I really think that's not very fair... first because i don't want a phone that somebody used before me, and i don't want to give my phone to someone else

second because they don't really care that i lost all my data... after all this mess i will only obtain a phone that isn't new, and without my data! just like if google erased all my data for nothing.

please guys at least tell me if there's a way to recover all the data i've lost.You know: i have a 16gb flash storage full of data in my hand that i want to copy on my pc, there should be a way!

sorry for the anger

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cesp-94:
:crying::crying:

i also read a forum in the country i live (italy) and it seems to be a frequent problem these days... a lot of guys who have a 9-10 months old phone accuse the same issue, and the only solution seems to be the motherboard substitution (or the google warancy phone substitution). Google told me they will give me a refurbished phone, but i know sometimes they have scratches, they are not perfect, so why do i have to trade my phone for another one that could not be new? i know they used to send new phones in the early days... Do you guys have experience in that? have you ever send you nexus5 to google? what did they do?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
You get a refurbished one because too many people have RMA'd for silly reasons like loose power buttons, speaker hole size and screen light bleed. So blame them.

Usually a refurbished device should be near-perfect; those who have gotten ones with damage are just unlucky; and you can just call Google again anyways.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cesp-94:
i think i'll see if i can get my phone fixed with the LG warrancy in a LGcentre in my town, at least they will tell me if i have to throw my phone away... then i'll use the google warrancy.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
to me it sounds as your storage corrupted, not power button. if it was power button, youd be able to get it booted, then it would bootloop. if it is the storage that corrupted, an rma would be best.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ADB100:
I am slightly worried about the mini-USB connector on my QTEK 9100 as it seems to have a little bit of 'play' in it - i.e. it can be moved slightly and so seems loose.

I have read various threads about the connectors breaking and either being pushed into the device or simply falling out. Some people seem to have had some success getting them replaced or repaired under warranty, others haven't. Since I bought mine off eBay last year I think I am pretty much out of luck regarding warranty.

Anyway if I take the stylus or something similar and push the metal edge of the mini-USB connector it moves slightly within the over-sized hole in the plastic case (there is a very slight gap all around the metal outer part of the mini-USB connector and the hole in the plastic case). I am not sure whether it has always done this or it is becoming loose. Can someone else check whether their mini-USB connector moves slightly in the manner I describe or if theirs is solid? It is only a very slight movement but really that is all it has the ability to move since the gap between the metal and the plastic is very small.

The connection seems OK to my PC and I have upgraded the ROM a few times recently but this slight movement is getting me a bit concerned that it is going to break shortly and since this is the only way to charge it I will be left a bit stuck :(

If it is on it's way out what are my options and what are the likely costs? I don't think I have any warranty case and I am in the UK.

Thanks

loose mini-USB connector

My MDA also had a loose mini USB connector over time it continued to become loose until it finially brokw. I was forunate that T-Mobile did replace it under warranty.

I did find a company ont he internet that charges $60 to replace the MDA with a new mini USB Connector. It does require the device to be shipped to them.

Here is ther website address:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ADB100:
I have applied a rather crude fix by inserting some small pieces of card (I cut up a business card) around the slight gap between the outer metal part of the mini-USB connector and the surrounding plastic. This seems to have stopped the connector moving, although I still think the damage may have been done :(

View attachment 34014

It's charging and syncing without any issues though so I will see how it goes.

Loose Stylus & Mini USB inspection.....

My Wizard has recently developed the loose stylus issue outlined here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=247497&highlight=loose+stylus

I have followed the instructions to 'strengthen' the small plastic retention tab using a bit of silicone which is currently drying.....

Whilst I had the back off I decided to take a look at the Mini USB connector and see if there was any damage. Well it looks like three of the four solder pads at either corner of the connector have become 'unstuck' from the circuit board (see attached image). I have some experience of soldering but I am a little worried that I may damage something else with the heat if I attempt to touch each of the pads to re-secure it. The five data pins at the rear all seem OK, it is just these ground/earth ones.

Has anyone else performed this repair successfully?

Andy (slightly worried :confused: )
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ADB100:
Since the replies were so encouraging :( I went ahead and re-soldered the pads and it's still working......

The silicone didn't work so I removed it and inserted a small piece of plastic and re-siliconed it in place. It's better than it was originally now :)

I think I'll take the back off again in a few weeks and see how the mini USB connector is. Any other advice as to keeping the USB connector intact?

I have had a MP3 player which has the same problem with the output jack (for the ear phone). The solder became loose and I get irritating silences during the music play back. I solve the problem by applying superglue on top of it because the circuits there are just way too small for my (or any other human) soldering skill.

Anyway, for this case, it seems that the ground is large enough to withstand minor heat from the solder. And, chances are, since it ground, in most cases thick/wide enough most of the way (as to absorb any 'distrubances') before it reaches any IC which is what you need to be really careful of.
