Had to flash it via recovery. the copy-paste didnt work for me.

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Sebi673:
You should acknowledge Monivan's work for the stereo mod

His stereo mod's been around for half an year so you should at least give him credit for the hard work - it's a lot harder to find the settings in a SND_fusion file than it is in Mixer_paths. I've tested the first versions and it was a lot of work logging every type of output to make full stereo settings. So, give him some credit mate!:p

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Metallijim:
I whole heartly agree with this, as I was a beta tester for the sony stock rom version, and I know how much work he put into it.

A credit is the least the o.p could do. Z removal would be better, as l think its more of a duplicate.

Hey guys ,, Just for fun as well as information..

WHich is the best Lollipop based ROM.. Speed , battery life , display , sound ,customizations ,etc..

Currently me on Xtrasmooth 3.9.1. which is based on stock image. ITs reallt good as per battery. But no customization.

Please provide your suggestion with some kind of rating based on battery , sound , display ,etc.
[Nexus 5 General] BlazeForth:
Hey bro.. Every rom is best with its own good, stable, nyc features and they are developed by cool and awesome devs... There are a lot customised roms.. The battery life depends on your usage... This question is against XDA rules bro.

Hello. Just curious if there is a lollipop rom for t110 and if so where could i acquire it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stanru1:
Hi, all! Please, help me to solve my problem :)

Yesterday i tried to build custom ROM image for my PDA and failed :(.

I made following steps:

1. I made a backup of the existing ROM using mtty and SD card. The result was the 29mb raw file

2. i downloaded the last ROM update from the HP site, extracted it and obtained the ceos.nbf file.

3. Next, i tried to use prepare_imgfs and viewimgfs utilities whith both files.

4. After using prepare_imgfs i got, as expected, the imgfs_raw_data.bin file

5. But when i used viewimgfs, it couldn`t find any data in that file! Here is it's output:

guidBootSignature: F8 AC 2C 9D E3 D4 2B 4D BD 30 91 6E D8 4F 31 DC
dwFSVersion: 00000001

dwNextHeaderBlock: FFFBFFFF (size: FFFBFDFF)

Header type: 2F5314CE, Addr: 00000208
Unknown header type, FS_DATA_TABLE??

and more messages like that.

Can anyone tell me, where is the problem? :)

PS sorry for terrible English :rolleyes:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] andrew_sh:
i would like to know an answer for this too. thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stanru1:
I found solution to extract files, but i couldn't find out how to pack it back...

To unpack files, you need:

1. the Perl interpreter

2. script, which can be found on http://forum.wce.by/viewtopic.php?p=78923#78923

3. You must replace $A and $S variables with your values:

$A is the address of the beginning of the imgfs block. It can be found using WinHex and F8AC2C9DE3D42B4DBD30916ED84F31DC signature. $S is size of imgfs block. It can be found with signature E9FDFF. You must find the table of partitions, and take 4 bytes as it's shown on the screenshot, in the reverse order. (00 C0 BD 00 -> 00BDC000)

For example, for iPaq1950 rom, taken from HP update, values are:

$I = "CEOS.nbf";

$O = "bigbrother.bin";

$A = 0x003BB55A;

$S = 0x0000BDC0;

After Perl script ends it's work you can use imgfsToDump or viewimgfs tools.

For this solution HUGE thanks to Gvr.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] andrew_sh:
Very nice thanks.

If you find a way to repack it, it would be even better. I actually want to use this method for the hp1930. My problem is that there are no official updates for this model, so I have no shipped roms. Only a sd image dump.

What type of image is the sd dump? dnf or .bin (raw) ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stanru1:
I think, it`s a raw dump. In any case, imgfs is the same on both images.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] andrew_sh:
thanks again
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] andrew_sh:
any idea on how to get start address and size from a sd image? I can't find those signatures in the dump

thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stanru1:
The signatures may differ in case of the specific image. If you whant, i could look at your file, if you upload your rom into the Rapidshare or the same file-uploading service and give me the link :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] andrew_sh:
thanks man,

I'm uploading to rapidshare right now.

the image was created using a 64mb sd so the image size might be a bit longer

A Way to Treasure is a puzzle game with many challenges.

In each level, you will move obstacles as rocks, bricks, and ice tiles to find a way to treasure. You can only move the obstacles that contact with the way (the blue light way) and the obstacles can only move on the way. This creates new challenges.

You will win if the way contact the treasure.

Each time you move or destroy the obstacles, you need to use some food. If using all the food and you haven't found a way to the treasure, you will fail and the game ends.

Each level have 3 star. Collecting many stars as possible and using food at least is a difficult challenge for you.

[Xperia Z2 General] delsus:
I'll take Samsung for my example because I know them.

Samsung will rush their update, they make sure everything works as it should, but the software is not optimized, My S3 would always lag really badly when I updated, it could take 5 seconds for the app draw to load, and they fill it with bloat and update their own apps which also lag really badly. I would prefer to wait another month as see a quality product rather than relive my Samsung nightmare.

[Xperia Z2 General] chesterr:
To be honest it's this month and whenever they start to roll out the update, it'll be there on multiple servers unlike Samsung or HTC.

Other OEMs haven't started rolling it out completely and Only problem with Sony is that I am afraid they'll update mid-range phones to lollipop.

Plus Selling their mobile division won't happen I guess. They just need to stop producing more phones and just stick to a plan with less devices with more futuristic updates with some cool ads. Unlike boring or stupid ones. and they will rise from this nightmare and will continue to amaze us but I really hope that they'll release Camera features with the next lollipop update :D

[Xperia Z2 General] zodiac100:
I understand where you're coming from but it's been a Perennial issue with Sony. It's a very competitive industry and lagging behind others does Sony no good. There will always be the expected responses from Sony fans like better to wait for an update which is bug free than one rushed and bug ridden .

Truth is, there has never been an update from Sony that's been bug free and there probably never will be as is the case with all manufacturers.

The good news is they're at least closing the gap. Once upon a time they were many months behind. It's unfortunate because the Sony ui is one of the closest to stock so you should expect it to be one of the earliest.

Software support has never been one of their highest priorities but the new CEO did say they wanted to improve in this respect.

Let's hope so eh!

---------- Post added at 02:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 PM ----------

167 took ages because Sony wanted to showcase the software on the z3 range. That was down to strategy and not software optimisation. The 6 month madness was to blame for the delay in getting 4.4.4 to the z2. Nothing else!
[Xperia Z2 General] algnerd:
Notice that I've been loyal to Sony since my first phone (w810) and so and so. And I would love to stick with Sony to the very last end but they should make some changes.

I don't know if its me, but the only bug I did have was with the Z when running 4.3: an app couldn't sync with the server, also the widgets stopped working from time to time.

That's all I can remember from the w810, w995, x2, x10, J, S, Z and Z2 bugs

I purchased the OnePlus One Sandstone Black 64 GB directly from oneplus.net after I finally received an invitation on January 09, 2015. I've been playing with it since I received it in the middle of the next week, but have not put in a SIM card. Currently, I'm using with my S5 for a little while longer with t-mobile.

I was looking tonight at different options and used the cricket website to test the IMEI/ESN number for this phone. It came back as blocked. I also used swappa.com and sure enough it's blocked :eek:

What in the world can I do?? I tried to post to the oneplus page but don't have enough responses yet. After reading all of the horror stories about their customer service, and since it has been over 14 days, I can only imagine the worst. I will call my credit union and see if I can dispute the charges since I was shipped an unusable (at least I think) phone and certainly hope I won't be expected to pay $349 for something I can't use.

Any help, suggestions, or ideas about what I can do in this situation will be greatly appreciated! Also, has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
I'd suggest you open an RMA request with OnePlus, as well as a PayPal dispute. Do the PayPal dispute first so that you can quote a reference number for the case when you request an RMA from OnePlus, they usually are more responsive when there's PayPal dispute involved.

Timmaaa,

Thanks for the idea of including the paypal dispute information, that is a great idea! I've added it in my ticket with oneplus and we'll see what happens next.

I did receive a response to the oneplus ticket that I opened last night. Basically in my ticket I was letting them know that I wanted to exchange my phone for one that is not blocked and one that I can actually use. (in re-reading it I may not have been clear enough on what I wanted though, so I was much more specific in my follow up). This was their response:

Hi Scott,

We're sorry that you no longer wish to keep your purchase. Unfortunately, we are only able to process devices or unopened accessory return requests made within 14 days of delivery, in accordance with our Return Policy (http://oneplus.net/privacy-and-legal#returnpolicy).

Just reply again, making sure that you're very clear about it being a defective unit.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott47:
Well, things went from broken to working really quickly. I explained to OP in better detail exactly what was happening and gave them my paypal dispute id. They wrote back to ask me for screen shots showing it was a blocked IMEI/ESN number. This morning when I went back to swappa and cricket the numbers were no longer blocked and showed clear and ready to go.

My best guess is that the blacklist database was having issues last weekend and gave a false report on my phone. I doubt that OP had a chance to fix the issue (I really don't know though I suppose they might have).

Anyway, this ended up with me apologizing to OP, and learning a lesson to wait a few days before jumping off the deep-end when something like this happens. :o In my defense though, spending $349 on a phone that was blocked was a hard pill to swallow :)
