[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SgtMaadadi:
Long story short

Updated to 4.4.4, didn't like it, want to go back, not sure which ftf/stock room to download

My Z2 is unlocked but in the start up its shows UK O2, also it had some apps of theirs

If u flash the stock non branded stock room, would I break my device? Also would it become sim locked?

Thanks XDA
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
im not sure but if flashing any FTF i recomend excluding simlock.ta if present
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SgtMaadadi:
Also I don't know if helps, but for fun I looked up the codebar on the box of the phone and the results on Google turn up sim free unlocked Z2

I'm not too worried about that, I'm more worried of the branded ftf
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
as said flashing a FTF should do nothing at all. i had a bad xperiance one time forgetting to exclude a simlock.ta from a factory leaked FTF and it simlocked my device untill i had to reunlock it

since then i always exclude simlock.ta from flashing FTFs, never had any issues with doing such ever since, i flashed plenty of branded FTFs since.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nsharp1:
My rooted Xoom seems to be unable to read the internal storage. Does anyone know if there is a way to recover?

Here are the details:

I have been running Wingray on my Xoom for about a year, and everything had been working fine until the last couple of weeks.

It would frequently not wake up after it went to sleep, and I would have to restart with the Power-Vol+ combination.

Yesterday, it finally would not load android at all. It displayed the animated graphic indefinitely.

I booted and started TWRP, which loads successfully. It prompts me to enter my password. Since I didn't use one, I cancel this.

When I look at the log, I see:

E:Unable to mount '/system'

E:Unable to mount '/cache'

E:Unable to mount '/cache'

...

E:Unable to set emmc bootloader message.

I then tried to format.

After typing 'yes', the log shows:

Formatting data using make_ext4fs...

E:Unable to wipe '/data'

E:Unable to format to remove encryption.

Updating partition details...

E:Unable to mount '/system'

E:Unable to mount '/cache'

E:Unable to mount internal storage

When I try to mount storage, I see:

sdcard (12772MB)

Internal Storage (0MB)

My PC does not recognize when it is powered on while connected.

Does anyone have any ideas whether or not I can get this functional again? If so, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey all

here is my watchface for sw2, hope you guys like it.

and thanks to naheel and all in the xda foruns.

What I was looking for

Your design is what I was looking for exactly - too bad it doesn't work on my watch for some reason but that's ok I just wanted to say what a good design it is.

Cheers.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] datagubben:
It works, you just have to build the watch. Press + in the upper right corner.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] raafraaf:
Thanks for the help, but I did that. I built a new watchface using the 2nd design (the one on the Right in the pics above) which leaves the bottom row free for standard widgets. Sadly, only the widgets appear but not the watch.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] xbloody:
Sometimes it takes a bit to load the watch face,

here it is a picture of the watch face working today:

[Sony Smartwatch 2] raafraaf:
It Works

Thanks to all for the help... it turns out I needed to reset my watch which I did yesterday for a different reason and suddenly this watchface is working as expected :)

Really happy with it.

BTW, I was about to upgrade to the latest software but saw in the user reviews that it might break 3rd party watchfaces... did any of you upgrade yet and if so, is this watchface still working after the update?

Cheers
[Sony Smartwatch 2] xbloody:
Hi raafraaf,

thanks for ur feedback :)

just updated today my sw2 with the last software in playstore, and after the firmware upgrading in the watch i can confirm that both of the watchfaces are still working
[Sony Smartwatch 2] raafraaf:
Thanks a lot :)

That's good news.

It's really lovely how Sony is still supporting this watch.

Cheers
[Sony Smartwatch 2] Harrymac:
Simple to set up and works like a charm, thank you.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] julz:
If you have troubles getting the watchface to load try uninstalling the Sony Smart Connect app and reinstalling it. It's the most common problem my users have and it generally fixes the issue.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] justsignbythex:
My 8525 came in yesterday and I've been playing with it. It's a neat phone, and there's still alot to be discovered.

I was wondering how you can transfer or read SMS that are stored on the sim card? Is there a way?

I'm 100% sure that there are SMS on the SIM.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Potatoofdoom:
So I was driving to work and plugged my phone into what turned out to be a faulty car charger (the ground was lose and disconnecting). I was wiggling the charger around in the 12v port and got a lot of static and the left side audio went out. I have replaced the headphone jack/earpiece speaker but the problem persists, no audio out of the left side 3.5mm (except a little hiss or static) and audio is fine out of the right side. Anybody have any ideas? Could I have burnt something out in the phone not related to the jack? [I have tested multiple cables/headphones which I tested to be working, I have also checked the accessibility settings and my balance is set in the middle.] Thanks.

How to reset permission? I need to play Kritika but it gave me Xigncode hack detected, it occured after i installed root explorer, i already uninstalled the app but still got the error
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] ankAndroid:
try re-setting your root permission.

In your SU app select No super user.

and run the game

[XDA Assist] SamuelBegui:
I'm trying to figure out whether it is possible to root the Galaxy Note 4 without tripping KNOX.

If you need further information or further explaining just ask, thanks. :)

My screenshots can't be uploaded until later, sorry about that but if any of you need me to type out anything I'll do it.
[XDA Assist] Pony Express:
Hi,

It appears the Note 4 can be rooted using Chainfire's auto root.zip.

Source : note-4/development.

You may wish to check Chainfire's site for information on tripping the counter... if memory serves me correctly, he used to have (S3) a seperate ap to reset the counter.

Good luck !
[XDA Assist] SamuelBegui:
Thanks I appreciate the response! But I'm trying to prevent the counter that say's something like "Knox Warrant Void 0x0" tripping to 0x1 permanently. Is that possible for the Galaxy Note 4 when rooting?

Thanks!
[XDA Assist] Pony Express:
My best answer is above. :)

[XDA Assist] greekone79:
Hello all, It's been awhile since I've been on.... A big while :) But things have changed a lot around and looks great, But on with my question. I have a M horse N9000W MTK6572, And recently tried a sys file restore using titanium backup and the process froze with a error stating that me deviceID had changed, Then the phone proceeded to reboot, But upon booting up it just stays on the android logo. Before this problem I was able to go into factory recovery as I only had the phone rooted but no custom recovery or firmware, And now no recovery using any button combo. I have asked a few on ebay if there jig or jtag would help but they all say not on the china clone as of yet. So is my phone a cool digital android desktop picture, Or is there a method someone knows :)

My pc nor mac recognize the device anymore either. Thanks in advance for any info or help :D
[XDA Assist] Pony Express:
Hi,

I have searched and do not find information that is helpful.

With no recovery and no recognition from the computer, I'm afraid this is a hard brick.

Sorry, I know it is not what you wanted to hear. - support for almost any clone device is scarce at best.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hobbes62:
I own a Samsung Galaxy S4 Active GT-I9295 (international version) and I recently unrooted my device so I can update my OS. I try to update my OS as I'm currently running 4.2.2 but when I check for updates it notifies me saying "Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available" and looking at the status of my phone, it says its "custom".

I want to be able to fix this and update to KitKat but I don't know where to start or what firware to choose. When searching the database on SamMobile, I came across this ( sammobile.com/firmwares/download/34604/I9295XXUCNH2_I9295BTUCNH1_BTU.zip/ ) but its the UK version (I live in the USA). Does it matter what country I select for the firmware? Do I need to match the PDA, CSC, or MODEM codes to my existing phone/firmware of that from the link? Will this brick my device or am I clear to apply this using Odin? Sorry for probably the very basic questions but Im very new to these kind of things.

[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Many of you may know the color matching / Tetris clone Dr. Pocket from the author of for example Travel Collection (reviewed in the <code>Windows Mobile Multiplayer Bible</code>).

While the previous version didn’t have much to write home about, the new one is MUCH better. First, it sports multiplayer capabilities and, second, no other than Jaybot7 (well-known musician; for example, most PDAMill games sport his music) himself has written some really cool music tracks for the game. (Note that, should you want to listen to Jaybot’s tracked music, it’s in the res/music subdirectory of the home directory of the game. Should you want to have a module player to play them, read my related roundup HERE)

Availability, price

It’s available here. Note that the new version is free for anyone who's ever purchased Dr. Pocket and only costs $9.95 if you want to purchase it.

Multiplayer

The multiplayer is lobby-based (screenshot). This means that, unlike with Travel Collection, it’s not possible to play Internet-less games (for example, over local Wi-Fi peer-to-peer or Bluetooth PAN connections). Hope the developer adds support for direct IP-based playing (it’s already there in Travel Collection), while, of course, keeping the central server (lobby)-based approach too. This would offer the advantages of both game types (lobby-based: no need for entering IP’s; works when both parties are behind firewalls / NAT’ed; easy to find opponents; direct: no Internet connection needed and works over even really local (pico)networks).

The game, when played in multiplayer, is simply parallel, as with the similar, comparable multiplayer Teris & color matching titles (for example, CanTris and Quartz 2). While you do see the other player’s current game on a minimap (in the lower right corner), along with his or her frags (three is needed to win the game), he has no direct effect on your playing – except for someone’s entirely filling in the entire playfield, that is.

A decent feature is that the two parties can agree upon the game type (there are three of them), the game speed (three), the number of colors (three or four) before starting the game using a GUI (screenshot). You can even select your favorite music in here.

There are, unfortunately, no in-game chatting features.

Compatibility

I’ve encountered no compatibility problems on any of my test Pocket PC’s (PPC2k2, WM2003, WM2003SE, WM5, WM6; some of them VGA). Note that the game is one of the VERY few titles that (still) support the Pocket PC 2002 OS; note that you may want to install GAPI before running the game (if it doesn’t find it, it’ll report so you don’t need to keep in mind whether it’s already installed). Note that, as can also be seen in the screenshots (taken on my VGA WM5 Dell Axim x51v), there is no hi-res mode.

Verdict

I really recommend the new game if you like Jaybot7’s music and/or just want to have a simple Tetris-alike game. As with Travel Collection, highly recommended if you don’t hate color matching titles.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bit2know:
Hi this is my first time posting code for use on here.

I recently created a Compact Framework UI library on CodePlex here: b2kui[dot]codeplex[dot]com

If you have been looking for a editable data grid control for Compact Framework, look no further.

The editable datagrid has many features that go above just a simple replacement. I have built in a system to allow full access to directional, enter, and tab keys to allow the datagrid to work with keyboard only. I have written my own data binding, so you have control over how cell values get parsed when the data gets validated, and when the data gets committed.

It is still a work in progress, however, since it seems like something that gets asked for a lot, I want to get it out there for the people like me who needed something like this but couldn't find it.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
i've returned 2 note pro's thinking they were defective and realising now that the issue of rebooting was due to a corrupted file in my system, i have identified it is one of my comics files i had stored years ago on cd disc, the problem is there are like 1000 comics i can't check each one individually.. does anyone know of an app or a way to scan the tablet to find the rogue corrupt file?

originally when it caused the reboot the comics were stored on my sd card, the second time stored in the device storage and third time in device storage again.. apart from checking one by one is there a short cut way that will tell me which file is damaged?

i know years ago i remember encountering one of the comics would not open that was the corrupt file however i cannot remember which one it was it was years ago i last checked.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodnok1:
A simple corrupted non system file shouldn't be causing the issue. However a simple look at file sizes may point to an issue, it may be more related to filename structure if very long or has non standard naming conventions not used in Unix.

If you have the files on cd and are moving over just move a portion over at a time to narrow the problem down.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Connect it to a computer and let explorer search for 0kb files. Ignore the .nomedia and playlist files.

Any mediafiles that show up as 0kb are corrupt.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
Thanks maybe it is a file name issue. Im definitely sure it's the comics as all 3 have rebooted constantly because of iti just cant figure out wht it is. Is a filename which is too long likely to cause reboot?

i know it's not a software or firmware issue per se but i can't figure it out what's causing the reboot. Whenevr i play videos and lock the screen it reboots but it's only after i transferred the comics over
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
What would be considered a non standard naming structure..it is baffling why it keeps rebooting im transferring the comics away now to see if it stops
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodnok1:
Only alphabet, numbers, underscores and dashes should be used, spaces are not great(depends on what you are doing). basically nothing else should be used(there are exceptions depending on Unix version but this is Linux) or Linux will hate the naming convention. Dots are fine also.

Did you load a comic app to read these or are they just. Jpg or similiar?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Lolwhut... :laugh:

I have about 80.000 pdf's and comics in one folder. ALL have spaces in the name.

Comics are usually in cbr, cbz (both are .zip variants) or pdf format. Can you honestly imagine having to load every single page in jpg? Lol.

Exclude the folder from mediascanner by dropping a .nomedia file in it, and scan the thing with Windows Explorer or Apple Finder for 0kb files. (regular search, in english the string is size:empty ) That should be more than sufficient.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodnok1:
Being unfamilar with how comics are stored is why I asked...

Spaces can be problematic based on operating system and interface, Unix nor Linux like them so I avoid at all costs. Just because an app allows you to read them doesn't mean it cannot be an issue.

Unix interpretes a space as space between commands when using command line, since OP problem may be when files are being read outside shot a weird combo is actually causing an issue.

When switching between Windows, Unix, VMS worlds and having them all need to read all files properly either from web servers being hosted on them or from applications being run locally, spaces are one of the biggest issues. That and forward and back slashes.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
they are scanned comics from the 90s i had the stored for about 10years theyre .cbr files optimised for reading in comic apps like perfect viewer.

do you have any idea what is causing the reboot? ive removed the files now no more reboot..very frustrating.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
f sake it seems the reboot is back despite removing all the comics...not as much as before only once since this morning howeve it is back..it didnt happen once when i got the tablet till up till putting the comics in..however i havent really been using the tablet since then watching videos or doing anything intensive tbh so it's hard to say the cause..do you think it's definitely a rogue app or firmware issue rather than hardware?

this is the 3rd tablet i have had the first one kept rebooting all the time..i updated to the latest firmware and disabled all the apps i could that i dont use.. on my replacement i kept it as simple as possible i kept the original firmware but did not disable any apps let it run as normal as possible but did add the comics in..in the morning it rebooted.. so i returned it. now this one is the third time and it's so annnoying i have to think that if ALL 3 are rebooting it cant be a hardware issue right? i cant be that unlucky that all 3 have hardware issues so surely it must be right to assume it is all firmware related etc?

it is such hassle doing factory reset each time sorting it out one by one filling in passwords etc.. that it doesnt look like i can resolve it now.. the comics are removed yet it still is rebootin for all i know the device would have reboot had i did more ram intensive stuff like watching videos..am i just going to have to accept it? being thankful it isnt a hardware issue.

ironically my second tablet didnt screen flicker when i was using the original firmware
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodnok1:
Short of factory reset not sure how you're going to narrow it down to hardware/firmware or software.

If you removed offending app and comics completely and dalvik cache was wiped it eliminates that..
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
F sake i did a factory reset yet it is still rebooting it seems to be after ram intensive stuff this cant be right? It can't be hardware because all 3 have done it i just can't figure out what's causing it it has 3gb ram nd power saving is off why does it keep rebooting?

I think maybe the sd card may have some things in it from the comics but i removed the sd card and it still randomly reboots could my contacts crashing be the reason? I disabled contacts and contacts storage as i do not need itif idont it keeps bri gingup the warning unfortunately contacts has stopped.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete101:
im not rooted so cant do dalvik wipe. Wht on earth could be causing it?

like i said ithas been fine since i got it before i put the comics in i removed the comics factory reset and it keeps rebooting still what the hell i honestly can't figure this out all 3 did the same thing im about to give up
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
I'm not sure what you are doing after a factory reset but what I would do is remove any SD card and do a factory reset again. I would not allow restoration of any other software (when you get to the portion of setup where it asks if you want to automatically backup and restore day no) and I would simply run the device bare bones for a day or two without installing anything to rule out any application that I might be installing.
