[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abdl:
My 2 weeks-old xperia z2 fell off a friend's hand today and its back glass got shattered! I checked locally and there isnt any replacement part around me so i had to order for it from aliexpress(reliable??),which will take atleast three weeks before i will get it,so im stuck with a shattered phone for now,im totally screwed right now aaaarrggghhh!! :mad:

Anyways Has anybody gone through this before? My concern is the adhesive fixed beneath the panel,will the phone retain so called "water proof" after the replacement? will it lose its integrity? Since its just adhesive perhaps some part will not glue back properly will that be susceptible to dust settlement? Will NFC still function properly?

And oh! i thought i read its "shatter proof" before i bought the phone ...perhaps i didnt read well??:rolleyes:
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
Shatter proof?

No such thing and it doesnt say it on the sony website from my last checking

Water resistancy should be kept intact if the sealing is properly kept intact or replaced, NFC i dont realy know enougu about to answer for you
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danieldp1990:
To answere your question, the back cover is not shatter proof, its a dragon trail tempered glass that means its supposed to be scratch resistant but not shatter proof. the NFC will still work if you replace the back cover. and as far as I know every back replacement have the doble side tape, so you can take off the one on your phone and just place the back replacement that comes with its propper tape.

About the water proof, let me tell you that actually this is not a water proof phone, its more actually a water resistant phone, keep in mind that what makes this phone resist to water is the tape on the back and front pannels and the flaps. but to be honest I dont see this phone like water proof. you can take the phone out when its raning , take it with you hands wet. but once you replace the back cover you have to be sure that the tape of the back is water proof tape.

I dissasembly my Z2 and now that I know what make the phone water resist, I wont take the risk to try it on a pool .

Perhaps its only the front lcd??
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abdl:
Thank you so much! This has helped! But the question is,will i still get the adhesive together with some chinese knockoffs(coz thats my only option) back glass? If not can i use a another adhesive like super glue?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] o0 Matt 0o:
I'm not sure if Sony is advertising false info. firstly the picture you included is clearly in the DISPLAY section. Secondly, you've quoted gsm arena and not Sony as the source of the information. Finally I always thought shatter-proof means it won't break into a million pieces and cut your fingers and not that if you drop it onto a hard surface it won't creak.

to break suddenly into many small pieces
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoxx3m:
Yap, shatter proof means exactly that, when you drop it the back panel will probably crack but it will not break in million pieces like a regular glass. :thumbup:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Francesco B:
Hi all. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini

I9195 since November 2013. I rooted it

about a year ago and installed CWM

recovery. I only had 3 apps that required

root; CPU Master, Samsung Log Converter

and Silent Boot. I was very happy with the

phone except for a problem with tabbed

browsing where I frequently couldn't close

open tabs as the tab button wouldn't work.

I eventually decided to update the software

hoping this would cure the problem. I knew

I would have to unroot the phone which

I did, and I did a back up to the external sd card

using CWM. Then I updated the software with

Kies on my pc. Well now I am running 4.4.2 and

it's terrible. The phone freezes, hangs, locks

up etc. So I tried to get back to 4.2.2 but I see this

isn't too easy. I tried to root the phone again with

Towel root and it says "Device Not Supported".

Then I ttird CF Root but Odin won't do it. I tried using the

CWM back up from the sf card via upload

mode and this had no effect. I have all the

correct drivers on the pc but Odin fails when I select

select the Serranotex file. When I connect the phone in download

mode the I.D Com box turns Blue not Yellow

Is it possible to completely erase the os

and re install 4.2.2? Also my Knox Counter shows 0x0

in recovery mode. Can I

root the phone via a file fom the external sd card?

Also I replaced the hdd in the pc a few months ago with an sdd.

Could this be part of the problem? Fortunately I had my trusty Galaxy

S2 handy as a spare phone. Sorry for the very long post

but its my first one. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Knox 0x0 you're lucky, try wiping factory reset in recovery.

Has your baseband changed?

I think you can downgrade to a one Brazilian 4.2.2 firmware which is Knox bootloader v2.

Rooting 4.4.2 official without triggering knox is tricky, early versions of kk you could use towellroot, ive read newer kk require flashing a early 4.4.2 kernel then use towelroot and flash again your original kernel kernel
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Francesco B:
Thanks for the reply fburgos . I managed to get it rooted by installing Odin and the drivers on another pc and it worked ok. I'm happy enough for now with my three root apps and Super user disabled Knox for me too. :) :)

No, you will lose root

You will have to wait until someone releases a pre-rooted flashable zip for the latest firmware. Then you can just flash it in recovery

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fajrero:
I just finished backing up with TWRP and installing the latest nightly build of CM11. I logged into my Google account okay, but for some reason it's not doing the automatic install of all my apps like it usually does when I install a new ROM. Odd. Okay, that's annoying, but whatever. I did a backup with Titanium, too, so I guess I can do a full restore of the apps with that, instead.

However, when I try to use AdAway, it tells me that I don't have root. I install Root Checker, and sure enough, no root! Well, that should be easy enough to fix, I think. I run off to towelroot.com, and then download and install Towelroot. But when I try to root again, it tells me that my phone's not supported! My phone is a SM-G900T, and I had rooted it successfully with Towelroot about a month ago!

Any ideas? How can I re-root my phone with CM11?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fajrero:
Got it. I kept finding articles asking how to unroot after installing CM. It's just a setting in CM, though (under Developer Options). Root is off by default; so, I just had to turn it on.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mean-machine:
After updating to WM6 (firstly xda 0.1) then to Vanilla I noticed that when typing on a keyboard I got eg. "tu" when typing "t" or "u"; the same situation with "gj" when typing "g" or "j". I also got the problem of getting wrong symbols (eg. "**" instead of 8). I've got 2 T-Mobile UK version (HERM300) devices, one updated tens of times and the other one oneuntouched. After checking the registry I can say that both are the same as far as know keyboard registry fixes are concerned.

Is it a hardware thing or something I could fix. I searched over the forum, but others had different keyboard issues with their devices.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] spiritofseth:
you could try going into the input options and toggling the predictive text to not kick in till after 4 words have been typed or just disable it. this may be the problem, its set to try right away by default and I see all kinds of wierd errors when it is set like this.

or you could try to go on a vigirous finger diet and excersise routine with the hope that your fingers shrink in size.

or you could use a hip top, the hiptop 2 has the best keyboard IMHO though the herald/kaiser is very nice as well
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mean-machine:
Unfortunately turning off all the predictive text options doesn't help. I start thinking that this is some kind of hardware issue as everything in the registry is as it is supposed to be. I just wonder how it could happen as it was working flawlessly (even under WM6) and suddently started working weirdly.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boz:
I have not come across this problem, this might not work and I doubt it will! but try this keyboard fix cab file for the 8225, you can always remove it with remove programmes if it is a no go. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Deleted member 444687:
I was experiencing the same problem and this cab file worked for me. Thanks. Just don't forget to power cycle the device once the cab is installed.

is there a way to just get my phone to capture just one image instead of (for eg ) 5mp + 16/19mp. so just taking one at 20mp.

also this dng image is it uploadable to sites like fb twitter etc or does it need the jpeg/png etc

[Nexus 10 General] l7777:
This guide is for people who want a stock ROM strait from google without wiping their data and without relying on another dev to put together an update.zip to do the job.

Standard Disclaimer. You're responsible for your actions and your device. This guide just tells you what is possible. It is not as simple as booting to recovery and running an update.zip, but it will get the job done and it will be a fully factory system image with no modifications since you got it strait from google.

Pre-requisits:

Working ADB and fastboot and the ability to boot into the bootloader

A factory image from google for your device

A way to verify the MD5

A tool to extract the image files, I used 7 zip

Latest version of SuperSU

Optional:

Latest version of TWRP or your other favorite recovery

Begin:

Download the google factory image you want and verify the MD5.

Download the latest SuperSU and verify the MD5

Copy the SuperSU update zip to your device's sdcard

Extract/unzip the files from the google image until you get to the bootloader, flash scripts, and the image-xxxxxxxx-xxxx.zip file

Unzip the image-xxxxxxxx-xxxx.zip file as well. This file contains the individual images for boot, cache, recovery, system, and userdata

If you do not have fastboot in your command path, copy it to the folder that contains the bootloader and the individual images

Boot your device into bootloader mode

Open a command prompt or terminal and change to the directory where the bootloader image exists, run the below commands

fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-manta-mantamf01.img (Verify that you have the right image name, it will be different for different devices)
fastboot reboot-bootloader

After a reboot your device should be back at the bootloader

Change to the directory where the individual images exist and run the below commands

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash system system.img

At this point you have a fully stock system image, now you will want to boot to a custom recovery and install SuperSU for root access

If you want to install a new custom recovery you should do so now

Use the volume keys on the device and boot into recovery

Install the SuperSU update zip you copied to the device earlier

Reboot and be patient. Eventually you should see the "Andorid is updating" dialog. Once it completes you'll have applied a complete google factory image with root to your device without wiping out your data.

I got three firetv's from staples local store as I needed for my family. I have done this with other firetv's in the past but already spoilt two by getting them updated to the latest firmware.

1. I had checked the serial numbers before buying and they were original rootable versions.

2. I couldn't get past the forced update and the blocked sites on the router would not let me proceed.

3. I did the timing thing but that too didn't work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzDiViqXdSg. So I let it update hoping it would do the update inclemently but it didn't. It updated to latest.

How are folks doing it now. Are the guides still valid. I have the last one still packed. I feel so bad. :(

---- My findings from a later post:

In my quest for today, here is what I have found. Note: I've done about 15 or so rooted firetv's but at the moment things aren't the same as it used to be.

1. If you get an old stock for example serial series of 2. They will have a very old firmware which USED to increment but they don't now. They go directly to the latest firmware thus loosing root. I went through 4 of these series today and none of them could be bypassed with the Ethernet trick. (709002XX)

2. Series 3 (70900305/303) is bypassable with the Ethernet trick to boot up. I've seen two versions of series 3. One which requires a downgrade and the other that doesn't before going up. IMO downgrade is a much easier task vs rooting.

Bestbuys have lots of series 3. So if anyone needs a version that should be rooted, head to bestbuy 91303. I'm sure other area's too have the series 3. Staples has a mix of mostly Series 2 and a few Series 3.

Hope this helps.

I don't want to mess up this one. I don't get the message checking for updates, it straight starts to download it, I didn't let it download.

That's unusual. Just 2 weeks ago pulling the Ethernet cord got me to registration page in one shot. I don't get why it's not working? Even if updates weren't blocked via the router, I thought that initial trick of unplugging made aftv think there was no update or it already had been updated.

One observation here is if you let the software begin to download and then remove the Ethernet, the next time it tries to resume and not restart unless you do the recovery and clean factory.
