Hello guys,

I hope I'm at the right place to ask a Q and If I'm at the wrong place, please forgive me. My Q is. I have Freedom 1.0.6 with Market unlocker and it used to work with previous Google play store.

It doesn't work now with the new Google play store update and I don't know why. When i try to purchase gems etc, it just says Google play store has stopped. So is there any solution to solve this problem? I will gladly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subzerobob:
play store 5.2.13 update is broken!

same problem here, anytime I click on any app - play force closes/crashes and it says "google play store has stopped" I called google and they were a bunch of a-holes about it, insisting that it was only my device and my problem. glad to read that this is widespread! although for some reason my other devices dont update themselves and stay on the previous play version 5.1.11

PS I dont have freedom and I just found out that freedom is warez. i suggest that you edit ur post and take out any mentioning of warez and focus on the real problem which is play store update 5.2.13 and perhaps that way u grab the attention of the right people who can help us. Nobody on here will help this post if ur mentioning warez!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samircali:
What can we do?

So what can we do to solve this problem? Is there anything we can do?

Well, I will try to to downgrade my google play store and see if it works. Maybe Freedom doesn't support Android 5.2.13 which is the play store. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who is having this issue.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AvidPhisherman:
Same issue re: Google Play Store 5.2.13

EDIT: Please note that I don't use Freedom, however I am experiencing similar issues.

Having the same issue, on a very old device: Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE (model # SGH-I957R). Stock TouchWiz 4.0.4, device rooted with SuperSU 2.46.

My steps to duplicate the error:

1. Tap Google Play Store > app opens normally

2. Tap Search button > type in app name

3. In search results, tap an app (Facebook for instance) > page appears to load > freezes and then crashes, producing the error "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped."

4. Google Play Store closes and tablet revers to app drawer

The temporary method I've used to get around this: in your search results, tap the three dot menu on the app you want and then tap Install. Skips the app description page entirely and works fine.

So far I've tried using the steps in this XDA thread and also these Android PIT instructions, but no luck. No amount of clear cache + clear data + force stop + uninstall updates + disabling/re-enabling apps + signing out and then back in of Google Account has worked thus far. Will report back with more finding once I find a solution!

Freedom and luck patcher are banned on this site and you will not get any help concerning them.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subzerobob:
exactly the same is happening with me. the 3 dot menu is brilliant fix for now. i've also tried everything just like u but nothing seems to work. btw - some of my other devices upgraded their market to 5.2.13 as well but they dont have this problem. i wonder if it is related to the OS? my crashes happen on ICS OS 4.0.3 and on my other device JB 4.3.1 play store 5.2.13 works ok. Note to administrator: please do not block me, i am the one who told that guy not to post about warez! now my xda app seems locked as I cant access my participated and under my profile i cant access the list of my posts either. admin - did u do smthng to my accnt?? pls dont! i am telling ppl NOT to post about warez. I didnt even know what freedom was! i had to look it up.

Hi

Yesterday my phone dead? Reloop after sony logo, i cant go to recovery. (before i had Ressurection 5.0.2 rom)

Later i flashed boot.img for lollipop and phone booted with charger, but mt wifi don't worked and i tired to install another rom with cwm.

Later idk how my recovery changed to Cyanogenmod Recovery and i cant do anything :(

Now i flashed unrooted stock .tft and i still have loops.

When i try to flash boot.img i have problem with writing :

I have warranty but idk do I have to give my phone to service.

What i have to do?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
Well, sad to say, but you don't have the warranty anymore, as you have unlocked your bootloader, within erasing all your DRM keys :D (ironic, I know).

But if you have a TA-Partition backup, then you could just push in, (just be sure before pushing TA to flash stock .ftf with its kernel) and your DRM keys are back. Then you could proceed futher for warranty service.

Firstly, if you don't want go to warranty, try to flash Pabx Lollipo (it's stock lollipop). After that you could check if it has been fixed and flashing commands are properly working
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ko8:
DRM keys ? What is that?

I locked bootloader before and deleted all files accidentally :D

How to flash this file?

<--- nvm

Can i flash userdata.img in flashtool? Idk why fastboot dont work in cmd .-.

Edit2: After flash Unrooted ftf PC Companion accepted my phone and now my phone is repairing, i will write later does it works.

Edit3: PC companion repair dont work too. :(
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
DRM keys are stored in your TA-Partition, they're required for many functions to work: Clear audio, Camera functions, Official ROM and it's updates (If i'm right with this one) and other.

I recommend you to download android SDK, then go to it --> Platform tools --> SHIFT + RMB (right mouse button) --> Open Command Prompt Here.

After that, shut down your phone. Wait atleast 30 seconds. then by holding Vol +, plug it into PC. Blue LED should show up.

Then in CMD type this:

It should be returned some numbers and letters. If it doesn't show anything, then your windows maybe doesn't support fastboot or you don't have drivers to that (fastboot + adb drivers).

Make sure in this folders are fastboot.exe and adb.exe (the most importantly to us is fastboot.exe) and some other files as well.

If ir returns information correctly, then you can download any rom and extract it (I sugges you to use Pabx).

Extract everything from .ZIP/.RAR, you should see system.img, boot.img, userdata.img. Place them into platform-tools directory (where fastboot.exe and other files are).

Then simply write these commands in CMD:

If everything will go OK, then you can reboot your device:

Then your phone should start normally, after that you can manually install CWM and other things either.

If it didn't work, just quote me regarding the problem, I'll try to help you
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ko8:
Thanks, i know how to use fastboot :D but xperia dont charge. I will do everything what u said for a while and i leave edit. :)

btw. Thanks

Edit: Idk it's important but before it in android 5.0.2 Ressurection ROM sometimes it turn off without charger plugged , i think it was ROM fail :eek:

Edit1: Do you think it's better solution than SUS repair?

Edit2:After flash tired to turn on phone but red led blinked 3 times , then i connect phone to charger and red led blinks every 1-2 second. What i have to do?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ko8:
When I try to install this drivers with checked fastboot and flashtool drivers "Installation failed" for both drivers.

After install FTF my phone still stuck on sony logo and restart , its important what firmware i install? (region?) I have from Play in Poland then i must install Firmware Play PL ? I installed Firmware UK and RU and EU . still i have bootloop.

I tired too repair with pc companion. hmm.. bad luck, today probably i will give my phone to service :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
I'm sorry to tell you, but you phone doesn't have warranty anymore and specilized Sony staff won't take it for fixing, as you have unlocked your bootloader, so you need take it to local repair service (Sony might fix it, but with some price of course).

Either way, you can try install drivers on other computer, if you have one, then try on it.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ko8:
I locked bootloader before. Repair with PC companion. Bootloader is locked and when i unlocked it (have unlock code) after reconnect fastboot it was locked again. idk how :D I think they can't see it cause its power and software problem and service give me new phone :D . They can see i had unlocked bootloader ?

I think something inside phone overheated and i dont thinnk so does Polish service see it :D
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
Yeah, if your phone is psychical damage (overheated) and doesn't turn on, then they may change it for you to another one, but If they will bring the life back to it, they would be able to see if DRM keys are in their place, and even if you've re-locked your BL, it doesn't change the situation at all, because in the service menu they could check if DRM keys are not erased, if so - they will not fix it under the warranty
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ko8:
2 days ago my phone stay in my bed at night witch charger and he was very hot. Later i dont turn it on again.

Yesterday i connected my phone to charger and he dont charging. I can go to flashmode and fastboot .Installing system throught fastboot , pc companion repair dont worked. I think they are too lazy to check it.

I have no choice , money is no problem anyway i must repair it :D

Edit: Now wait ~2 weeks >.<

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoey63:
They gave you a new z with lollipop preinstalled? Or did you flash a custom rom?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ko8:
What version ? Validus-LP-v7.0-2015-03-09 or Validus-LP-v7.0-2015-03-11? :D ( New version not always is better)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
09-03 for now. I'm not sure which version was perfect working, as the newest 03-11 isn't working properly as it should to.

Now I'm waiting for the update to 5.1.. :D I do know that from 03-08 there will be lots of bugs : screen always on, even if you turn of it just will turn to grey color, that's all, ambient auto display doesn't work either and some other problems.

So, I suggest you to try only from 03-03 to 03-08
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ko8:
Understand :D

So , I decided to install ressurection ROM , and work perfect ( Validus rom is dark , i dont like dark themes and have some bugs , Ressurection is for me much better. )

Hello,

I bought a HTC One X from a Taiwan Seller through the ebay and I used a Dialog GSM SIM card to update its Android version.When I was downloading the update my signal was gone and it's continued after a while.Then it's automatically shut downed and started installation.But it crashed and rebooted.After that I tried with a WiFi connection but the same problem was occurred. So I decided to flash a ROM and I tried it.At the first time I tried a Endeavor RUU and its not compatible.Then I downloaded another one and tried it.When the second time it's stopped my phone was dead and can't go for the bootloader.It is not displaying even a charging LED.When I took it to repair center they told me it has to be replace a motherboard.I had searched every where to find a HTC care center but no one knows here(Sri Lanka), where it is.I tried NVflash but it couldn't do.Because when I plugged my phone to PC it is detecting as "My HTC".What is wrong with my phone? I need my phone back.Because I bought it from a loan. :crying: Please be kind enough to solve this problem.Thank you. :(

Hi :)

Do you have the HTC One X (Endeavor) or the HTC One XL / at&t One X (Evita)?

Transmitted via Bacon
[XDA Assist] nisal888:
I think it is a HTC One X International.But I tried a Endeavor RUU.Actually I am noob of android.Do you have any idea of this problem?
[XDA Assist] Heisenberg:
In order to help you properly I need to know exactly which device you have. I'm going to need to see your bootloader details. To boot into the bootloader there are two methods.

With phone powered on

Hold the volume down button, then hold the power button (so you're holding both buttons together), the button lights will start to flash, they will stop flashing and the screen will go blank, after a couple of seconds let go of the power button but continue to hold the volume down button until you reach the white screen with text, this is your bootloader.

With phone powered off

Hold the volume down button, then hold the power button (so you're holding both buttons together), after a couple of seconds let go of the power button but continue to hold the volume down button until you reach the white screen with text, this is your bootloader.

Please post the first five lines.

[XDA Assist] nisal888:
Sir,actuallyI can't reach to the bootloader now.I think it also formated by that RUU.It is not indicating even the charging.It is like a dead man.I think it is a HTC One X Endeavor.Because it was a International version. :(
[XDA Assist] Heisenberg:
It sounds to me like you either need the motherboard replaced, or you can probably get a jtag repair done. There certainly isn't anything that can be done with software/firmware though. So you'll need to find a repair centre to replace the motherboard or try to find a repairer that does jtag repairs in your location.

One of my friend was tried to do a J-TAG repair.But he told me it can't be done and it wass not detected to that tool.We can't find a HTC service center here.I am from Sri lanka a and I tired of searching a care center.How can I bought a brand new mother board?
[XDA Assist] nisal888:
When I tried to flash a ROM I didn't know anything about.Thats why I told you I am a noob.I didn't S-off,I didn't unlocked the boot loader,I did nothing with them.I reached to bootloader and connected to PC and ran the RUU.That is all I did. :(
[XDA Assist] Heisenberg:
I'm really sorry for your situation but there's not really anything more we can do for you here. You might be able to find a motherboard on a site like eBay, otherwise you'll need to go contact HTC directly, I'm sure they have an online support service that you should be able to find. I'm going to have to close this thread but I wish you the best of luck and hope you are able to get your device fixed.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chunx78:
I have had an issue with my z3 compact, when using the headphone jack is get a brief glitch in audio every few seconds.

I thought it may be an app or something in the background causing interference.

So advice from experia care was, hard reset then update the software then try the repair software function on companion software.

All made no difference, so I sent it to the repair center as a warranty repair.

It came back with new casing, and display unit.

Software update, call test all ok.

But the audio fault is still there.

Is there anyway I can find the cause of my problem myself, maybe I'm missing something stupid.

Surely the repair centre read my description of my problem...

Hello,

Just got a used Razr HD Maxx, 4.4.2. Everything is fine except that I have a couple of camera issues:

1. Taking pictures: when the camera is focusing, I hear a click noise from the camera. Is this normal?

2. Taking video in low light: the camera does not focus. Before I click the record button, the camera finds focus just fine. As soon as I click the video record button, the focus immediately changes and becomes blurry. I cannot change focus once recording starts.

Has anyone experienced these issues? Thanks!

possibly Knock code (but not 100% necessary)

I can adjust to anything else. I'm having a lot of trouble trying to figure out the differences between CloudyFa's releases. Practical day to day differences? Bug differences? CloudyG3 vs Cloudyflex vs Cloudystock?

CloudyG3 is a G3 Port with extra features.

CloudyFlex is a G Flex Port with extra features.

CloudyStock is based on Stock Android with extra features.

You'll notice that CloudyG3, CloudyFlex and CloudyStock are all STABLE releases and provide all of your prerequisites.

My recommendation? Try them all.. use one ROM each week for 3 weeks and decide which one you liked the most, or which ROM caused you the least amount of trouble. Just because you don't know a lot about ROMs in general doesn't mean you should just stick your hand up and be told what to do to your phone. Experiment with different ROMs and find what YOU are happy with.
