SHARP AQUOS SH-06F

Android 4.4.2 - Kernal 3.4.0 build Sharp 3 - Baseband ver 1.00 :crying:

Please can someone find a way to root or produce a custom rom for this device.

I know Japanese NTT Carrier's are always difficult to Root mod etc. As had the same problem with my SG3 SC-06D.

NTT always so much bloatware and resources hungry.

Thanks in advance from anyone who helps ;)

So I just ordered a OPO and of course I came and started to read up on it and it just seems like there are a lot of issue in this forum compared to other phones I've had. Is that just me being paranoid about buying something I haven't seen in person?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Most of the "issues" are caused by user error. Don't freak out, it's a great phone.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TigerDNA:
Thanks, and why is everything in OPO have something to do with Bacon? Is Bacon a dev or something? I feel like I should know this
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Bacon is the codename for this device. Just like the Nexus 4 is Mako, the HTC One is m7/m8, and the OnePlus One is Bacon. Best codename for a phone ever if you ask me.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] artnada:
You're on a forum where people come who like to fcuk about with their phone. If you mess with your phone, you'll get "issues" somewhere along the line.

"Normal" Joe Public are not interested in messing with the phone. Tech heads come to XDA.

In the real World, there are not so many "issues". :cowboy:
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indesisiv:
The problem is people doing things to their phones with out knowing how, why and what they are doing.

If people read and understood some of what they are doing before just randomly flashing things then they wouldn't have half as many problems.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zc_squash:
Hello,

I've updated my WhatsApp last night to v2.11.476 and it starts showing heads up notifications that, no matter what i try, unable to turn off. This only happens to individual chats though. Group chats still behave like before, i.e. icon just show up in the notification bar.

I also cant disable the vibrations no matter which settings i use. This is driving me nuts. Is there a way i can tun the heads up notifications off ONLY for specific apps? I suppose once I'm able to do this the problem with the vibrations will go off too.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jawomo:
With HeadsOff lollipop heads-up notifications can now be disabled!

No root needed.

WHY¿ The vs985has great Specs!
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
It has a locked boot loader and the only workaround method so far, Bump - developed by Team Codefire, was leaked by a selfish idiot, compromising the method so it will probably be patched in a future (Lollipop ?) OTA, leaving us owners with no root and no custom recovery.
[Verizon LG G3] theistus:
The method was compromised the minute codefire announced. Their method getting reverse engineered has nothing to do with whether out not lg makes an update which breaks it's functionality. If that comes to pass, it's simple...don't update. Meantime, development is just beginning as lollipop rolls out. Don't believe everything you hear.
[Verizon LG G3] foundingfathersfan2:
Yea, I won't update. I'm on a 5.0.1 and it's great. I have wife's on KZD 10b and TB system updates frozen because it took 11c before I knew it.
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
First off, where did you here this from? I haven't heard it.

Also, there have been several OTAs since "bump" was released and it hasn't been patched so far. Bump was released back in October and we just got a new update for the VZW model (VS985) in December (v 12B) and you can downgrade from that and install TWRP on it. Plus, there are already "rooted/bumped" images for you to flash if you don't want to take the official OTAs (of course, you have to tell SuperSU to preserve root over the OTAs and you must NOT be bumped in order to take the OTAs). I'm on the official 12B OTA and then flashed TWRP, so I'm bumped. So, at this time, the phone is still bump-able even at the latest version.

Also, reports from overseas where some are getting LP have been able to downgrade back to a Kit Kat. That might change here in the United States, but definitely, I would hold off on taking any more OTAs until it can be verified if it fixes the "bump" exploit or not.

But, so far, ROMs are being developed, etc. So, I have as of yet to hear about devs not wanting to develop for this phone anymore.

Again, if you could point us to some sources, that would be good because I would like to know as well, but I don't go by hearsay.
[Verizon LG G3] foundingfathersfan2:
Its just something I've seen on some ROM Threads. It may just be hearsay. I hope that's all it is.
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Okay, thanks. I haven't seen it in ROM threads and ROM threads normally don't have the devs posting there, so it's probably from people who don't really know what they're talking about, or it could be someone who represents the devs and posts updates for them. Either way, I'll keep an eye out on that and see if I can determine who it's coming from. Just curious because I definitely would like to know.
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
I look at this differently. Team Codefire figured out the only way known, so far, to flash a custom recovery and/or kernel and have it boot past the security check. Without that method (Bump), nothing is possible other than stuff based on stock firmware, like Jasmine.

Though the bump method was arguably already compromised by its use through the bump website, and that had its own drawbacks for sure (no nightly builds from CM, for example), there was an "understanding" between Team Codefire and LG, at least hinted at by Autoprime. The full public release of the bump method upset Team Codefire enough for them to abandon further work on the LG G3 altogether, and no one else has picked up on it or come up with any alternatives. You cannot even root any version other than the original stock v10b to this day.

So, though Roms are currently installable since you can still roll-back to v10b, root, and flash a bumped TWRP, folks getting new G3s in the future will likely be stuck with a totally locked down firmware, like we original purchasers thought we might be stuck until bump. For months...

How much Dev interest will remain if that happens ?

Will many Dev teams want to even just build for the G3 if only a subset of owners can install their works ?
[Verizon LG G3] foundingfathersfan2:
Crap. Your right, we are almost a subset.
[Verizon LG G3] pitbull8265:
Look..there will always be a work around.. as long as there is someone out there with a need, there will be someone able to provide it.. The truth stands for all makes and models of smartphone.. The ROM build craze goes on and on, and eventually the phone is outdated and dev passes over it to a new model to play with.. BEST advice for anyone is learn to write if youre not a progressive upgrader

The whole scene is a revolving door, and like most things good, eventually theres an end...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ozzah:
I installed the factory image from Android Developers to my Nexus 5 and applied Chainfire's CF Autoroot. (I did this exact process on my old Nexus 4, my Nexus 7, and Nexus 10). Beyond that, I left everything as stock and the only root applications I run are Titanium and ES File Explorer.

The LRX22C OTA patch came down for all the devices recently, and none of them patched successfully. They all came up with the stock recovery android with simply: "Error".

I copied the OTA zip from the /cache folder to my /sdcard folder and booted into CWM to flash the zip manually. I get the following error:

Package expects build fingerprint of google/hammerhead/hammerhead:5.0/LRX210/1570415:user/release-keys or google/hammerhead/hammerhead:5.0.1/LRX22C/1602158:user/release-keys; this device has google/hammerhead/hammerhead:4.4/KRT16M/893803:user/release-keys

Then the installation aborts. I get this fingerprint error on all the Nexus devices.

It's not a signature verification issue, and disabling signature verification doesn't help.

Any idea why this might be happening and how to get around it? Thanks!

My buddy gave me this AT&T Galaxy Note 3 and told me it was ****ed up... It had been rooted and It was stuck in a boot loop at first and I tried to fix it with Odin or some **** and now anytime I try and turn it on it says "Firmware Upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again" but kies wouldn't read the phone. It's annoying but I wanna fix it. When it says it needs firmware blah blah ... It also says this in the top left:

[HTC Startrek] WinMoGroupie:
Which Windows Mobile build?

Can someone who has flashed this ROM go to "Settings > About" on their phone and post the "Build" number that you see there? This is supposed to indicate which Windows Mobile 5 AKU was used in this ROM. For example, my 3125 (which I believe has the latest Cingular shipped ROM) shows "Build 14955.2.3.0", which I am told indicates it is running AKU 2.3 (kinda old - the newest AKU is 3.5). Anyway, just curious...

I've never been entirely happy with the call quality on my 3125, so I'm looking forward to finding a new ROM with some radio improvements. So, I would be interested to hear if anyone experiences any improved call quality with this ROM versus your previous ROM (especially if your previous ROM was the current Cingular ROM)...

TIA...
[HTC Startrek] joeyyoung:
Good job finding this.

Thanks -
[HTC Startrek] krweatherl:
The Top of the screen now indicates "Windows Mobile 5.0 with the Messaging and Security Feature Pack".

OS 5.1.525 (Build 15362.3.4.2)

I've not had any complaints about the call quality in my area, but will definately be listening to see if this is an improvement.

Hello together,

can i use this rom for the qtek 8500?

Are there german regional settings?
[HTC Startrek] krweatherl:
Yes it has 5 German Locales. No German language.
[HTC Startrek] joeyyoung:
krweatherl - Can you go into any detail on this ROM version. You stated that this is a 'Test' ROM. Is there a final release coming or is this version it? Is there an associated 'What's New' document? Any documentation would be great.

Just curious. I didn't want to flash to this ROM when a final version would come out a day later? ;)

Thanks -
[HTC Startrek] krweatherl:
The only info I have is the link on the wiki.
[HTC Startrek] WinMoGroupie:
Thanx krweatherl!

Build 15362.3.4.2 indicates Windows Mobile 5 AKU 3.4 - giddyup!!! Very recent, must flash this ROM soon...

As to call quality - since I got my 3125 I have had a number of people say my calls don't sound as clear. Funny, I can usually hear them fine. Not saying I am surprised - I saw this comment in some reviews I read prior to buying this phone, but I decided to buy it anyway. But no regrets - other than the fact that some people have trouble hearing me (that's their problem!), I truly LURVE this phone... ;-)
[HTC Startrek] moneytoo:
Does it means this firmware includes .NET Compact Framework 2 in the ROM? (According to this: http://www.mobile-review.com/pda/articles/wm-aku-en.shtml)

I want this... Auxiliary Display Support

Added support for an external display that can be used for clamshell Smartphones. The external display shows device information and allows the user to control key aspects of the device from the external display and hardware buttons. Extensibility in the design architecture allows partners to create new views based on templates as well as customize the user experience flow. Opening the device will take the user to the application shown on the external display.

AKU 3.x stuff

@moneytoo,

Those were some interesting links. A few things we could/should see in this ROM as a result of AKU 3.x that caught my eye: stereo bluetooth improvements, an EQ in Windows Media Player, Internet Sharing instead of Wireless Modem, AJAX for IE, and performance improvements for IE (I wrote "could/should" since, as we all sadly know, carriers like Cingular have the ability to disable, cripple or otherwise hose up just about anything before the ROM goes out, and they seem to take advantage of that capability regularly)...

Looks like the .Net CF2 you are interested in may or may not be in the ROM, depending on what Cingular decided to do with it, since the second article sez it is a carrier OEM:

Features of new Cingular Beta ROM

You guys are missing some amazing features. After using this ROM for a few days I would NOT recommend upgrading since it's obvious this ROM is in beta. I would wait for the final version to come out and then definitely upgrade as soon as possible.

Noticeable upgrades are:

When you receive an attachment in Messages, you can click on it and it'll ask you what you want to do with it. That means you can save all types of files and no longer does it tell you it doesn't know what to do with the file, or open it automatically. You can actually save it to wherever you want. WOW.

The home screen is slightly different in pocket IE. It's similar to what we're gonna end up having in WM6.

You can now save a txt msg to the SIM card. This is great for me since many times I use Google's lookup feature by txting them and I would love to save the responses to my SIM so I don't lose them.

You can now text a contacts information to someone else from the contact screen. Instead of remembering the number and going into text messages to text it to someone, you can do it directly.

Speaking of contacts, there is also an "Add to Favorites" in the contact menu but I can't figure out what it goes to.

The Comm manager has been slightly updated in that you can access phone and Profiles settings from the menu instead of just bluetooth.

There are other minor tweaks to make things easier to use, but otherwise nothing major that I can tell. Battery life seems to be better believe it or not. There is still no option to stop that ridiculous blinking light on the front of the phone.

If anyone wants me to test to see if a certain thing is in this FW, just let me know soon cuz I'm reverting back to the standard FW in the next few days.
[HTC Startrek] thelostsoul:
Just curious, but aside from the topic title stating "Test ROM"..what makes it obvious this is a beta ROM? I haven't had ANY problems with it and it seems to me more like the one my phone came with was a beta. Though I guess this being beta makes that alpha...heh...

But yea, have you found any issues with it?
[HTC Startrek] kingbear2:
I don't know it just doesn't seem so stable. Maybe I'm wrong. I haven't had any major specific issues yet besides - a. I can't figure out how to disable the startup and shutdown tones like I did with the old FW, and b. VitoCopyPaste, a program I use many times every day, does not work well with this firmware. That's a MAJOR issue for me.
[HTC Startrek] scott_donald:
i like it so far... but wish i could get rid of the singular stuff...
[HTC Startrek] donshula:
I've started to have problems with calls being dropped mid-conversation. I'm going back to the Qtek ROM to see if that makes a difference.

scott_donald - it's far from perfect but you can edit the menu folders the same way you can Windows' start menu by browsing to the Windows\Startmenu folder via ActiveSync. From there you can add extra folders and dump the unwanted programs into them to clear up your general menu browsing.

Another ROM posted on the WIKI

I was confused when I went to the WIKI. There are two ROM's posted. One Test ROM and one Shipping ROM. Grab the shipping ROM. It has the slightly newer version number and looks like it will be what Cingular will support going forward. ;)

Test ROM -------------- RUU_STAR100_4_1_.1.502.1_02.79.30_CWS_SHIP.exe

NEW Shipping ROM - RUU_STAR100_4_1_.1.502.4_02.79.30_CWS_SHIP.rar

I have installed the latest Cingular ROM.

- Weird... I ran my application (which uses .NET CF 2) and it didnt run. I thought it has latest AKU with CF 2
