[Sharp Aquos Crystal] Twist_of_Kain:
I like the creativity. :)

This 306SH with 4.4.2 appears pretty locked down, but I like the creativity of going in by an OTA update. I'm sure it would be quite involved though. If you could get it to update over the WiFi then that would be easiest. Then you could record the packets and replay them, possibly with a modified payload.

If you couldn't do it over WiFi though, then you'd have to be the cell towers. I'm not sure how you could do that without first creating/getting/rigging a receiver to capture your phone talking to the cell towers, then get one that hasn't been updated and capture the update. Then, I'm thinking you'd have to make/get a transceiver and probably find some way to isolate the cell from being heard by any towers, mimic talking to the cell, and when that looks good, request the update, catch it, playback the update from before and then.. if you got that far... and it actually updated like before,... then technically it would just be a matter of replacing the payload of the update.

Not trying to discourage the idea, by any means though. It would be totally hardcore and awesome to see someone pull either off. :)

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] colordancer:
Hi, I'm also spending some efforts on fota update and currently I'm reversing the update logic in fota daemon. I believe it's just a matter of time under the condition it's possible to work out through fota way, because so far I'm not pretty much sure what's inside the fota package. AFAIK, red bend just download the diff package. So if there're not a complete ota image but only file partials with offset to override, of course it should be a waste of time.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] :
No, haven't had the free time. Let alone getting the device away from my wife long enough to play with it lol. So, don't expect much on my end.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] loonbg:
tnx for information .. its so sad that no one dev don't want to work on it .. it is great phone and root will give us allot options ..
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] :
I'm sure someone will get around to it. I personally haven't even had the time to conduct any personal development for myself as of recent. Heck, my TWRP source hasn't even been updated to the latest changes so I can make a few builds for a few devices. I have been falling behind :-/ lol.

But hey, I have a two month old son who keeps me entertained :) - cheers!
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] UltimaXtreme:
I bought mine in December and refused to update for several months, holding out on root, but I gave up some time in April and took my SA300 update, only a few days before the most recent one was outed, even.

At this point, I would hope for a Lollipop OTA more than anything, just to break the basic faults in the device. Can't use the SD card for anything, it seems. All the applications have to be sandboxed off, and some refuse to use the external storage.

For the sake of this forum, we just need a few smart minds to capture the update packets and really dig deep.

Worst part to say is that Sharp has failed to follow up on their releases for source code or tools. Emails show they don't seem to care about it, and that Lollipop is a pipe dream. Meanwhile, they're working on the their Zeta devices, which will have Lollipop, and far better specs.

If you can attack the OTAs, that would be great. This device is great for the price, and all it needs is the right push to make it marketable. That push always starts on XDA.

Iv'e been playing Soul seeker and iron knights on my Xperia Z2, Shield portable and shield tablet. All devices have root access and has the same tweaks or root apps such as greenify etc etc but on my shild tab the games always says it detects unauthorized program or hack progam and closes i dont have lucky patcher or freedom installed both games work perfectly on my xperia and portable. Any suggestions?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] An Droid:
Nvidia claimed to be releasing a new OTA soon (this week?) that'll fix the colour bug. Personally, I'd wait and bear through it (or try the Native setting). There are some apps to adjust colour/tint in the play store, but I haven't tried them. I think the stability and bug fixes 2.2 provides are worth sticking with instead of downgrading, but that's my opinion.

Otherwise, you can find instructions on downgrading - you'll have to unlock your boatloader first (if not already - means data wipe) and then installing one of the recovery images I believe.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RollWii:
ok maybe ill stick and wait for the new OTA and just make a fresh install then root it.

I've just got an XDA Orbit and it's great - only discovered one issue, though, every time I perform a soft reset, all of my text message are erased!

Is there any way to get the XDA to store the text messages on the SIM rather than on the phone?

My 2 cents on Verizon sim card versatility on other carriers

First post and first up at bat, so let me too proclaim softly that I too am like a citizen of nooberia and a remote village as well metaphorically , but thanks to internet access I recently read that the FCC mandated that Verizon phones that are 4 g LTE capable have gsm sim card compatibility. The FCC allocates a range of bandwidth frequencies to the various carriers which are made accessible through carrier specific sim cards for a mobile phone. Any further clarification and/or corrections on this matter is always sought and appreciated .

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] privat83:
Hello together

I got a Note 8.0 and I tried to start it. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 sign appears and then the tablet freezes.

I can enter the download mode (everything is official there), but not the recovery mode.

What did I tried to do:

I flashed several recoveries (CivZ-Touch-6.0.4.4., CWM-Recovery, philz_touch_6.07.9, TWRP-2850 and stock recoveries) which worked.

I flashed two different stock ROMs with odin and the passed, but the tablet still does not start

Tried to root tablet with "CF-Auto-Root-konawifi-konawifixx-gtn5110", also passed with odin. A red Android man appeared and it told me something like mount error.

Does anyone have another approach? If not, I will return the tablet.

Thank you in advance!

I have some problems with my WiFi and Bluetooth , so I was suggested that I use someone else' TA backup and restore it so as to see if it fixes my phone.

My phone is Indian customised , so if you have an Indian firmware TA backup please upload , any other country's would also do (probably) but first preference would be an Indian TA backup.

So please , upload your TA backup by attaching the file in the reply , I will be very grateful if you help :D

(NOTE: None of your personal data is coming to me so chill and help if this was bothering you ;) )

Your problem is about BASEBAND (loader.sin,modem.sin). Use Sony Mobile Flasher,

go Device tab > Check Updates (find Xperia L then double click) > Select your phone model (C2105/C2104/S36h) > find your firmware (it can be different in different country) then double click and download > and select modem module (IN IMAGE). Finally, flash it. If this solution don't solve your problem. Flash all firmware completely.

According to the posts, you already flashed the TA backup, soooooo

the phone's dead permanently. you now have a stylish paperweight

Hi,

after CM 12 my Z3 becomes the same MAC Adress like my Z2 Wifi Tablet.

So how to change the MacAdress of my Z3 permanently?

Tried to google for it but found only solutions for KitKat that dont work.

And here is the Solution for CM12/maybe other CustomROMs that changes MAC Adress at flashing:

1. Use a Root Explorer/Root Filemanager

2. Go to: /data/etc/wlan_macaddr0

3. Open it and read out your old MAC from Sony - write it down.

4. Go to: /system/etc/firmware/wlan/bcmdhd/bcmdhd.cal and open it writeable

5. Edit Line 8 macaddr=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx to your original MAC from Sony.

6. Save changes and reboot.

7. DONE - enjoy - you will have your old MAC Adress permanently.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] paulallewellyn:
I ordered a spare battery from Expansys, but when it was delivered it came without the silver 'holding clip' that pins it in place inside the unit. Expansys have since changed the description to warn people that the clip doesn't come with it, but no one (HTC included) can tell me what to do without it. I have rung HTC who have 'escalated' the issue a higher level, but still no response, other than not to take the clip off the original battery (which I can't see how to do without breaking it anyway). Does anyone here have any information?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] LTxda:
I also ordered an extra battery. Can't remember where from and not at a place where I can check. My spare battery didn't come with the metal clip either. I've used it in my phone without issues. I guess after reading your post I'll need to contact the vendor and determine my options. It's apparent that the clip holds the battery secure within it's space. There are little holes on the board below the battery which the pin "latches" to.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] inframan:
Paul, As I see it there could be one of two issues here as the clip not only locs the battery in place but is a useful grip to get it out.

The first is that the battery compartment door may be a bit flimsy and pop-open if the battery 'shoogles' about causing loss of connection on the power contacts. On mine the battery compartment fits reasonably well and the battery seems quite tight in place so probably not the problem though a bit of insulating tape could solve that if it was. (though constant changing of batteries would probably gum up the outside with tape residue.)

Second more likely issue I think is that the battery has no physical means of ejection so you might find it difficult to get out without the metal clip.

An old trick I learnt here from a PDA that didn't have an eject mechanism for compact flashes is to take a piece of sticky tape pobably about 3cm long in this case. Fold over the last half centimetre. Stick the tapealong the battery with just the folded (and now non-sticky) bit hanging over the front edge that is exposed when the door is open. Now when you slide the battery in you have a little tab that will allow you to pull the battery back out.

Only downside is if the battery temp warms up enough to loosen the adhesive so use at your own risk!! ;o)
