[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
1. Use flashtool to downgrade to 314 firmware (exclude data)

2. Root and install recovery

3. Flash 167 rom

4. Useflashtool to flash pre-rooted 167 firmware (excluding data and system)

This method would alow you to keep your bootloader locked

I recomend using the TA Backup tool to backup ur TA just incase you want to unlock your bootloader

(when you root your device on 314)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonsterMMORPG:
wow this sucks do we have to downgrade ?

and where do i find these can you give links ty
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splasenekladivo:
Thank you very much. Looks like I am going to play with it today. :)

(something changes if I dont care about my bootloader unlocked?)

I would also like to get the links even I saw threads describing it, but just for clarification.

If you have a unlocked bootloader you can just flash a recovery and use it to flash A root zip

Links above

Bootloader cant be unlocked at all unless YOU unlock it via flashtool or fastboot
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splasenekladivo:
Thanks for the links.

I thought you can easily unlock bootloader via Sony code, as I checked mine in software info I would be able to do it, or am I wrong?

In case I have unlocked bootloader, I will just flash via flash tool for example the dual recovery, then flash prerooted rom and I am good to go right? :)

(when I will pass all of this I will write it over here)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
Flash pre-rooted rom and flash a 167 FTF (exclude system and data)

If your on unlocked bootloader flash recovery and then use recovery to flash a pre-rooted rom
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splasenekladivo:
Thanks again, going to try it and will report afterwards.

Cheers.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splasenekladivo:
One more question, any way to get root before flashing whole rom so I can run titanium backup before I wipe the whole thing?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V4LKyR:
Get your backup before the process.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZenPirate:
I am patiently waiting for my nexus 6 to arrive when a thought hit me. I have an active nano sim already, but can Verizon block my moto purchased phone later on? I'd hate to be past the return window and have my nexus not function to make calls simply because I bought it direct from moto instead of play store or VZW
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsj1906:
Doubtful - especially since Verizon will carry the device. You should be fine.
[General Questions and Answers] noamne:
Hello guys,

I'm here for the first time and I would like to hear your opinions on what to do with my N9006 mt6589 which has been bricked. I'll explain what happened. While I was using my phone normally it started to have a strange behaviour, error notifications popped up, couldn't write messages and then suddenly it shut down. Tried to charge it, and still couldn't turn it on. As my battery was weak I changed it and thought that problem will be solved. When I inserted new battery, my phone was still dead. No LED when chargin, no light when pressing Power button, nothing, completely dead. I knew that it was hard bricked. As I'm not a newbie in android world, I managed to install drivers and to make it discoverable by PC as MediaTek Preloader...Only thing that I knew about this clone is model SM-N9006 which is appearing while turning it on (on sticker under battery I have N9002, however I searched for N9006 ROMs to flash on). I don't know any other info about this phone as I recieved it as gift few months ago and I didn't modified anything on it. Don't have back-up. After trying to flash about 20 ROMs I found one which worked for me. But, my problem does not stop here. My phone turned on but stayed awake for few seconds than suddenly shut down again. I entered in Factory Mode which has all chinese words and managed to delete eMMC!!! Oh yes, I made that terrible mistake. Now I'm unable to turn it on again. In CWM eMMC is not mounting, as well as data, system and cache. MTK Droid Tool discovered my phone and I got informations that you can see in attached picture INFO.jpg.

After that I realized that my phone model is A202_mula_64 which I think stands for N9006 MAX. However I didn't succeded in unbricking my phone because no ROM works as I deleted MMC. With this iBaby888 ROM installed on phone now when I check Info in Factory Mode I recieve info that you can see in attached picture PB180003.jpg

Can anyone tell me what to do now? Which ROM to flash and how to repartition MMC and sd-ext??? Do you think that MTK Droid Tool is reliable and discovers right info? If yes, then I have n9006 Max = A202_mula_64.

Sorry for such a long post but I need your help urgently.

PS. Forgot to mention that my phone is dual sim and I can access CWM.

Your help is highly appreciated!!! Best!

Any ideas on what to do guys??
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CC Lemon:
This notification is one of the few problems I have with the device.

I don't need it to display this notification every time I remove the pen and it seems useless since I have to be looking at the device to even notice the notification. I'm not sure how they expect me to see the notification but somehow not notice that the pen has been removed. So, we have a useless notification that ends up blocking a key feature to the device: the edge screen. I often find myself waiting a few seconds or having to click the X just to use the edge panel with my most used apps. It's a small difference, but kind of significant when it should be something that takes almost no time at all. I just want to be able to pull out the pen and have immediate access to my panel of apps.

I've gone through the settings and can't find a way to disable this notification. I'm really not sure how they thought this notification was a good idea and not having an option to turn it off is just a poor choice. Has anyone found a way to disable it?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jooniloh:
I agree this needs to be removed. Not really a fix, but to save some time, you don't actually have to press the little X. I found that tapping anywhere on the notification will dismiss it immediately. Hope that helps for now.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xile6:
Settings > S-Pen > Pen detachment >

Detachment option none
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jooniloh:
We're not talking about the Air Command menu. The problem is the notification that slides in from the edge screen (blocking its functionality) whenever the pen is removed. "S Pen has been detached."
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xile6:
Sorry.

I do remember seeing somewhere where you can turn it off but can't remember if I find it I'll post it.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyOldMaurice:
I'm still looking for a fix for this. More specifically, the big pen splash I get whenever the S-Pen is attached. It just does it repeatedly with me barely moving.

Nice. Thanks for the build.

I'd like to build it from sources on my own. Would you tell us how to do that - e.g. do you got some build instructions?

It would be much appreciated if you would release these instructions as well.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] situ1962:
Hello Isdty,I installed your rom on my 9192 and I like it.Very beautiful rom indeed.Only one thing extra I want from this.Can you make the network mode selection menu like it was in the past ,when it had four options instead of the present two,viz. 2G and 3G.Actually the 3G mode is not 3G only,it's rather 3G preffered.So whenever the network strength falls a little it changes to 2G even if there is viable 3G signal present.So I wnt to get back the old menu style so that I can choose WCDMA only.

Audio problem in calls

Hi Isdty.

I have been using your last build ROM for several days.

Everything works fine, the only issue is that after working with the Smartphone for several days, let´s say 3 or 4, the audio of the incoming calls is not heared, is in silence, the outgoing audio also. same happens when the pone call is made from my terminal. The way to solve the situation is by rebooting.

It happens with the custom kernel or f4ktion kernel. I have changed the value of the lpa.decode to false in the build.prop and the problem remains. Do yoou know why is this?

I have had the same problem in more CM11 ROMs like Carbon, Spirit and most CM11 builds and others.

Your ROM is quite customizable, fast, fluent, stable and good battery performance. Without the audio problem it will be perfect.

Saludos

---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

By the way, why have you removed the PACperformance aplicatiom from the last builds? At least I don´t see it after flashing nor the ROM zip

I used it in the first one with the Performance Control also and t was really good.

THANKS

Hi,

FIRST OF ALL THANKS TO "ISDTY" FOR BRINGING THE PACMAN ROM TO S4 MINI. ESPECIALLY FOR THE S4 MINI DUOS.

I clean installed the ROM> I am very much happy with the ROMs performance. Its smooth, working great and the name itself proves that it has all the features of CM, AOKP and Paranoid.... Great work for giving this wonderful ROM.

So far now, i am not facing any problem, everything is working good. I restored all my old apps, no lags not a single problem persists still. Even when i was in stock some apps gave FC. But those apps works fluently in this ROM;););););)

The battery performance also seems to be good...........:cowboy::good::cowboy:

Regarding the ringtone and call problems faced by some user, I didnt have any problems till now. I am using the rom for only one day.... I will wait and see and tell whether i am facing that problem or not..... I am on the Cyanogenmod default kernel only which is coming out with the ROM....

And one more thing, the pac performance is present in the ROM. U ll see the option only if the developer option is enabled......

Over all a Great Smooth ROM with great features..:good::good::good::good::good:

Once again A GREAT THANKS TO THE DEVELOPER/CONTRIBUTOR FOR GIVING OUT THIS ROM....
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] k2wl:
@elegantsunny.10

edit your post.

quoting whole op is against xda rules.

@lsdty

atleast add arco68,F4k, me, sekil to credit in op :)

great work!!!

keep it up!!!

one more thing as per pac man build log...you can not put public builds yet...

are you sure to put public builds of 5.0????

Do you get ok from pac team???

one more suggestion...put kk builds and lollipop threads separate to avoid confusion and for fixing bugs.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] scaliskano:
really good rom with active display, pocket mode, non-intrusive in-call popup, compatible with latest F4k kernel, smooth and stable for 3 days been using so far... good battery life.. keep up the work guys ..thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] RyQril:
Which version of f4k kernel? Latest one there is no version number just X.x.x or did you install 1.6.3.5?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] scaliskano:
yep 1.6.3.5.for 3gxx
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] RyQril:
Tried the kernel and I got new problems.. like if 3g is on and on lock screen the device freezes even if you reboot.. went back to stock kernel... another thing does anybody getting this weird problem when you do something random like open an app or active wifi etc the device gets looked and I have to wait to settle or else it get me to lock screen... and another thing is there a new update coming?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Android Development] kamikaze702k:
Using F4k kernel, no issues at all, no issues with this ROM either for me, GT-I9195

sound issue

hoi pac fans

i am using the release build for five days now. i startet from scratch -> FULL WIPE!

now my serranoltexx has an issue with the sound.

the systemuptime is above 140hrs now and the speaker is not working anymore.

there is no ringtone no music :confused:

if i plug in a external headset or speaker it works.

a reboot and the sound is back on the speaker :eek:

any ideas:rolleyes:

and why isnt there an option called 'NO WALLPAPER' btw!?

EDiT:

by chance i have found the cause: charged the s4mini in an samsung desktop dock (EDD-D200BE) with usb audio routing option!

when i dock the s4m the internal speaker stops working.

the option 'dock audio' was not checked and the external speaker made the sound though!

also the option 'dock audio' isnt available at all.

letting the s4m placed on the dock: all works over the external speaker connected to the dock

taking the s4m off the dock: ->silence

placing ist again on the dock: softreboot

suggestions would be appreciated

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mehr_DaD:
Hi,

I've been using my Gnex since 2011, and since KitKat didn't come for it, I decided to test custom roms. I was using PA for about eight months and this morning I felt that i've not proper carrier signal on my phone then it came lower and lower until Gnext lost its connection. Gnex recognizes my carrier, but I've no signal at all :(

I've tried updating my rom and radio but it didn't work.

what can i do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Doc_Samson:
hi, same problem here. No mobile signal at all, i can not telephone or sms/3g... have you solved it then?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mehr_DaD:
Yes. I tried everything (Reset Factory, Wipe Cache, Wipe Data, Wipe Dalvik) and then I came up with flashing an updated version of my rom which at that time was ParanoidAndroid. Now I'm using Stock 4.3 and I recommend this after 2 years of using custom roms. ;)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddyfatsax:

Hi

it was free !!! can you believe it, with orange contract for £25 a month,

just tried the orange sat nav from webraska ( www.webraska.com, they have an orange part to their website)

but GPRS coverage is rubbish where I live ( 50 miles from the start of the industrial revolution, I get better coverage in Morocco)

the orange sat nav update the maps constantly as you drive, but stops when signal is bad , just when you need it, so it looks like tom tom for me.

GPS gets a fix with 5 sats when I am in my living room, I have 4 different other GPS and none will even get a fix next to the window, very impressive
