Just what Ive been looking for, I got a shock of my life when the mighty flashtool told the your device isn't supported, am on the bloody .157 :(

I'll try your instructions. Meanwhile, could you recommend me a custom rom of your choice, out of so mant available.

Thanks and Regards
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] pathaniya:
Thanks and Regards. Am rooted ;)

How do we unroot this? Can we?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] SlikToxic:
Go to SuperSU setting, scroll down and you will find Full Unroot option. :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] camaro322hp:
To confirm, if I'm on 108 rooted and i upgrade to 157 OTA, I will retain root with no kernel flashing and such? That's how I'm reading the above.

ROOT

Hi there,

as i remember, you are loosing root after upgrading from .108 to .157 and only workaround is to play with flashing kernels.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] camaro322hp:
That's what I suspected but the wording in what I quoted seemed to imply otherwise. Thanks.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] SlikToxic:
as I wrote you can root your .108 and update OTA to .157 without losing your root access and no need to flash any kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] camaro322hp:
Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] BS86:
Thanks for the files and the howto :)

Just tried it that way and root was working after the update. :good:

Note: I have SuperSU Pro and activated the option to try to keep root on OTA

BUT: /system was ro and with the OTA, RIC got reactivated, preventing every attempt to mount /system as rw or even try to write with su in terminal emulator

Sidenote: /system rw is needed to enable Xposed framework, which I essentially need for Screen-Off NFC - writing the necessary files also failed because RIC blocked write access to /system

The easiest way therefore was to flash the .108 kernel with the Flashtool, started the EasyRoot tool - which realized that my device is already rooted and therefore just killed RIC and enabled /system rw access permanently like I had before the OTA - flashed the .157 kernel and now, root and /system rw are working, effort was under 5 minutes.

Camera and other stuff needing the TA partition is also working :)

Hopefully, there will be a similarly easy way to root Lollipop without unlocking bootloader :P

PS: On a sidenote, the only thing your guide is missing is a link to the Flashtool or to a guide on how to get it ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Wenro:
Fantastic guide. Struggled some, didn't really manage to get it right on my own. Thanks for providing the files!

I got "error: more than one device and emulator" aftee run install.bat, how fix rhis problem?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] militiaOfDeath:
Can someone upload the .108 kernels, etc to some host that's legit? The link in the OP is just bull****; asking you to download a exe-file.

Edit: found what I needed elsewhere, so no need for my any longer.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Muchoaliento:
For the sake of god I cannot get past second step.

Flashed .108 kernel (at least flashtool does not spit erro msg and tells me to reboot my phone).

When I double clicke bat file it hangs on "deamon started successfully" and nothing else happens.

Drivers were installed from the driver package included with flashtool.

Any help will be appreciated

EDIT: upon running "adb devices" shows an alphanumeric string and "unauthorized" beside it, if this helps
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Tboyroy83:
Have enabled usb debugging once you reboot after the first flash? I know it sound stupid but sometimes you need to do it again when you do the first flash. Also you need to authorise the pc when you connect to the pc if you haven't already.

Hope this helps buddy :P
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Muchoaliento:
Thanks, it was a mixture of accepting on-screen permission, erasing old keys from windows computer and updating adb drivers. I am know tried to bring back my Z1C to life due to some flash error... :crying:
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Tboyroy83:
Grim, :( I always keep flash tool on the root of C/ and include adb and fastboot in my system variables. I hope you get it sorted, flashing a original ftf should sort it out.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] BS86:
Might it be possible to flash the .108 kernel to Lollipop to enable the towelroot-method that this kit uses and root it that way?

Did someone already extract the kernel from lollipop so that we can flash it back?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Tboyroy83:
You can use PRFcreator tool to make a pre-rooted zip of LP to then flash with recovery :P

Is there any way to root without unlocking once you're on lollipop? On the Z3 you had to downgrade the whole OS. I imagine once you flash the old kernel (.108) you won't be able to boot to lollipop.

Yes. I managed to do that with Kingroot.

Thanks so much. I don't approve of the Chinese waging cyberwarfare, but I do need my phone functional without a dead battery on fcking lollipop...
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] BS86:
i am pretty sure root won't solve your drain as lollipop itself is more battery friendly then kitkat was ....

I suppose it is an app that runs berserk on your phone and therefore causes a bad battery life

I installed lollipop in the meantime with the dualrecovery and prerooted ftf-zip and works like a charm, even with xposed
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Eason85:
I suspect you are not often using your mobile data. Lollipop has the mobile radio active bug that causes apps like Facebook or line or weather to use the radio for hours. While kitkat gave me 6-7 hours consistently, lollipop drains my battery in 4 hours sot.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] BS86:
Switching between mobile data and wifi more or less every hour, no such problem here, but yes, I have no facecrap on my phone, but some other apps in use like g+, mail apps and Telegram + some games

Hi,

I recently bought a Galaxy Note Pro 12.2. I need to know how do i connect it with HDMI to an HDTV. I've also bought EEEKIT accessories to connect it with my TV but it doesn't seem to work.

Please HELP

THANKS :D
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] treetopsranch:
Look at Amazon for this: 'Samsung Wi Fi All-Share Cast Hub'. I have one. Got it to work about 20 minutes then it shut down. Still working with it to see if I can discover the problem. When you first hook it up it will download a software update. Let it do that then try to restart it again by pushing the reset button. Some people have no problems with it, but I have not heard of any 12.2 users that are happy with it yet.

The EEEKit product worked for me but it was not Wi Fi and the supplied cords are too short.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] *Omnipresent*:
You will need an hdmi cable, a micro usb cable and this adapter. Follow the instructions on the box and your all set.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAMSUNG-GAL...515?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4627258ad3

Here is my Note Pro hooked up to my Panasonic plasma.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] treetopsranch:
Yes that works but the 'Samsung Wi Fi All-Share Cast Hub' is far superior. No wires from your tablet. TV up scales picture beautifully.

You can sit across the room and display videos, slide shows, web content, etc.

The problem: Hard to get it working. Today I turned off Wi FI on my laptop (which had been on upstairs) and tried again. This time the tablet wi fi to the hub worked and did not quit. I was able to do at least 1/2 hours of web surfing on my big screen Pany TV using the tablet. Since this TV is not a smart TV I am a happy camper being able to web surf using it and the tablet.

So maybe the Wi Fi from the laptop upstairs was interfering with the wi fi signals from the tablet. Would be nice to know if this is the problem.

OK did another test this evening. Had to do a re-start of the tablet to get connection to the hub. So this thing has some issues but it does seem to work when the Angels allow it.

GPS Not Working

I have been using this rom since early December (I think v1.2), and all is great except GPS has never worked for me. I can get location via cell tower triangulation (High accuracy), but that does not work for navigation since the GPS component is off. If I launch any of the GPS testing apps I get nothing, as if does not even detect it has a GPS device. If I flash back my rooted stock rom it works. I tried going back to stock and updating PRL, profile, syncing GPS, etc., and flash back into BlissPop, but so far haven't work. I assume it is an issue particular to me, since I don't see a lot of people complaining about it. I am a Linux systems/software engineer, so I can get an idea of where to start debugging ...

Bliss Pop New Version

Hi,

I'm curious as to when the newest version of Bliss Pop for the LG G3 is coming and what changes are being made?

Sorry but I love this ROM and I'm impatient.

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 PM ----------

I originally had Bliss Pop 2.0 which I love but it has GPS problems. So, I switched to the Rooted version of the stock 5.0.1 just to get the GPS working and to get the IR transmitter working. I did what I needed to do with the GPS and figured I would just restore the nandroid backup that I made right before flashing the rooted stock 5.0.1. Upon restoring my backup, the OS was soooo slow and jumpy. Yes, I did a wipe first and that didn't help. I ended up having to clean flash Bliss Pop 2.0 and start over again. Yes it was a big pain in the a$$ but live and learn ya know? I believe they are working on a GPS fix as well as IR transmitter operation and even NFC now that the stock rom has been released. I guess it's just hurry up and wait now.
[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
IR blaster is working fine on my setup. Even got LGs quick remote working on it from one if the threads here. GPS seems fine, but I haven't tried it with data turned off, or trued using a tool to test just the GPS signal. Yet. Love bliss 2.0. Am curious, of course, if new stuff has been merged and if there's a newer build to compile. But not asking. I'm happy either way. And grateful.
[Sprint LG G3] djerick3:
Glad we love Bliss Pop and now its hurry up and wait lol. However, I'm not complaining. Good things take time.
[Sprint LG G3] zalcon:
This is an awesome ROM! Features and options are perfect. The issues I'm experiencing are as follows:

No stock messaging (we all know)

No MMS on Textra

Double-tap screen on requires 2 double-taps and often doesn't screen on

Touch function sometimes require 2 taps

GPS will find and lock if I'm still, no real function otherwise

Screen off while in call sometimes requires power button to turn on

Still testing. Thank you!

The double tap on and off will only work if you have that option turned on in only one place. I use the option which is located in developer options. If you have it turned on in both places, it will not work correctly or not at all. GPS is a known issue that I know is being worked on as well as the IR blaster. While your in a call and the screen goes dark, try double tapping it and it should come back on. Hope that helps!

[Sprint LG G3] Tetlhah:
Yup, clean install every time. I've pretty much just gone with CM12, although I'm still having some problems with BT but I'm getting it sorted.
[Sprint LG G3] djerick3:
Hey man, just curious but are you partial to CM12 or something? I'm not trying to bash CM12 by any means but have you tried BlissPop 2.0 or BarePop V2?? BlissPop is incredibly fast and has a ridiculous amount of features but some of the basic LG LS990 features do not work (NFC, IR Blaster, All the features of the G3's amazing camera).

BarePop V2 is basically Android 5.0.1 ZV8 rooted and debloated. All the features of the G3 work and it has great battery life. Its up to you but I prefer BlissPop however I when I need NFC or the camera or the IR Blaster I switch back to the nandroid backup of BarePop and I'm set. I've got the entire backup and restore process down to 9 minutes flat. Hope that helps you.
