[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leripe:
I need some advice on restoring my s4mini lte back to stock.

My baseband says: I9195XXUAMF5

But there's no finland/international/nordic version of that firmware here: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9195

H3G (united kingdom) I9195XXUAMF5 is the closest one I think, but is it safe to flash that one?

My stock firmware 4.2.2 didn't have knox, so trying to avoid installing/tripping it. I would only like to restore it back to 4.2.2, but if restoring to 4.4.4 doesn't trigger knox then sure why not.

I'll check the restoring procedure from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2751224

Other threads about this question had few months old last messages and they didn't really have my problem.

Edit:

Steps to flash stock firmware back:

1. Register to http://www.sammobile.com/ and search to right firmware.

2. Download the firmware (free download is slowish)

3. Download odin 3.09.

4. Reinstall Samsung usb drivers. For example with Kies (usb connection troubleshooting)

5. Unzip the downloaded firmware file.

6. Start the phone by holding volume down+home buttons and the also press and hold power button. Click volume up when given the choices.

7. Start odin.

8. Plugin the phone via usb to pc.

9. Tick options: Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time.

10. Press AP button and browse/select the unzipped .tar file from the firmware zip.

11. Click Start and wait until the phone fully reboots and usually stucks on Samsung logo loop.

12. Unplug the phone and shutdown it by holding power button.

13. Start the phone by holding volume up+home buttons and the also press and hold power button.

14. Phone should boot to Samsung recovery.

15. Use volume buttons to scroll and power button as "enter"/select.

16. Do wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.

17. Phone reboots after you wipe cache partition and it boots up as it would when you bought it from store. (this first boot takes some time, give it at least 15mins)

18. Done.

I was using TWRP. I wanted to install CWM recovery...So i downloaded the ROM Manager and asked it to Install recovery. Then i asked it to reboot in to recovery. Now my phone is not going in to recovery.

I tried going in to download mode and try something but my phone does not go in to download mode not does it start. It keeps going in to recovery and restarts and back in to recovery.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huey85:
Hi guys,

wanted to gauge a response from the Z3 members here whether they are also having the same issues that I, and a number of other Z3 owners are facing, wherein voice calls are distorted and muffled on my end (I can't make out what the other person on the line is saying) but the person on the other side of the call can hear me fine. This only occurs when:

1) WIFI is on and connected

2) LTE is enabled and connected

Other points to note: I'm in Melbourne, Australia metro area and on the Optus network. One workaround I have found is if I want to use WIFI - I need to switch from LTE/4G to GSM Only in my network options.

I have exchanged my Z3 4 times now and the same occurred on all 4 devices. My wife's Z3 compact is also encountering the same issue.

The issue has been raised in the Sony Talk support forum here but has not had any positive traction at all..

http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z3-Z3-Dual/xperia-Z3-and-Z3c-Distorted-Voice-Calls-When-Connected-to-WIFI/m-p/901071#U901071

Have added a poll to see how many other users are facing this issue so that Sony can pull their finger out their a55es and fix the issue!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huey85:
Hi all, looks like the update 23.0.1.A.5.77 just released has fixed the issue with distorted calls when connected to WIFI+LTE! I've installed it on both my Z3 and my wife's Z3 compact (which was also facing the same issue) and the calls are now all crisp and clear when connected to both WIFI and LTE at the same time. Also, looks like I'm getting better reception too. Wonder what else was fixed/introduced as part of the update.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scooby-snack:
I have noticed this from my WIFI calling on T-Mobile Version. LTE I have no issues... however any WIFI calling has been pretty damn poor to date. I hope they will release a similar update to fix this issue!

Disable bluetooth then it will work. The BT stack on WM6 seems to not let the DHCP service work on USB when its enabled.

edit: not sure if this is deliberate or not. I'm a bit bummed by it b/c before when using the AKU3.3 Cingi ROM (which didn't have this ideosyncracy) I could talk on the phone using my BT headset while surfing over USB tether.

I dont know if this may help, but it worked for me.

On your phone connection settings if you assign the dns servers rather than using the server-assigned ones, the computer seems to make a connection without timing-out.

The dns settings i'm currently using are:

4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2

PS

Im on t-mobile uk and the HSDPA connection seems more stable with these settings.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asurion.acc:
Hello,

I am facing error when flashing image on Xperia Z3. I rooted the device using the link posted on "theunlockr.com"

Now, I am trying to flash a new image on the device. I am extracting the exisiting image from the device, modifying the init.rc file and repacking the image (myboot.img) and then flashing it using fastboot method. This is when it gives me this error.

When I flash the original image that I extracted, it works fine.

I tried following methods: -

1. Changing init.rc file and repacking the .img file and flashing it

When I extract initrd.img (using abootimg), it shows me only these files ( I usually find init.rc file when I extract initrd.img but not in this device, is this expected?): -

- XZ3-AdvStkKernel_DooMLoRD_ramdisk.gz

- logo.rle

- init (linking to sbin/init.sh)

- sbin/bootrec-device

- sbin/ramdisk-recovery-cwm.cpio

- sbin/busybox

- sbin/ramdisk.cpio

- sbin/init.sh

I extracted sbin/ramdisk.cpio file to get the init.rc file using the command: -

cpio -idmv < ramdisk.cpio

After modifying the init.rc file, I repacked the cpio file using the command: -

ls | cpio -ov > ramdisk.cpio

I made sure that none of the extra stuff was not there in the folder before repacking the cpio file.

Now that my ramdisk.cpio file is updated, I created new image using the command: -

find . | cpio -o -H newc | gzip -9 > ../newramdisk.cpio.gz

and created myboot.img using abootimg

When I flashed this image file, I get the "dtb not found" error

2. Second method that I tried was I simply unpacked the boot.img (original image) and repacked it using abootimg in to myboot.img without changing anything.

This also gives the same error.

It looks like there is some issue with the unpacking and repacking of the boot image.

Is there any other way to resolve this issue?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desperanto86:
use this instruction and tools, but when you will build your boot.img, use this cmd line

./mkbootimg --base 0x00000000 --kernel zImage --ramdisk_offset 0x02000000 --tags_offset 0x01E00000 --pagesize 2048 --cmdline "androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31 msm_rtb.filter=0xb7 ehci-hcd.park=3 dwc3.maximum_speed=high dwc3_msm.prop_chg_detect=Y" --ramdisk ramdisk.cpio.gz --dt dt.img -o boot.img

with that instruction all work fine. I've tested many times
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asurion.acc:
Thanks for replying to me.

I just want to modify init.rc file to add few lines. The only file that I see is ramdisk.cpio which contains init.rc. I unpacked it , modified it and repacked ramdisk.cpio. Instead of creating new dt.img, I directly flashed the new img file onto the device and that soft bricked the device. :crying: The steps that you suggested mentions creating a new kernel and creating a new dt.img. Do I need to do that even though I just need to modify just init.rc file?

At this point, I am just trying to unbrick the device using flash tool. I tried cwmrecovery but it did not work so trying flashing tool now. once its done, if it is necessary to create a new dt.img and new zImage using toolchains, I will use that method. Please let me know if you think that is the step that I am missing which caused the device to brick.

Thanks a lot.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asurion.acc:
UPDATE:

Device is unbricked.! :)

I just need to root it again and follow the steps that you mentioned. Please confirm if I need new ZImage and dt.img even if I just need to edit init.rc.

Thanks a lot.

One question - When I reboot (doesn't matter if it is into recovery or back to the system), after the fire words turn blue a 1/4" wide band of colorful noise pixels appears at the edge of my screen and stays there until it finishes booting. It disappears when the system switches back to the moving orange fire logo, or when the Teamwin logo appears. Is this anything to be concerned about, or does that happen to others?
