[XDA Assist] aaronmolloy:
My tablet is stuck in a bootloop and since I had never connected it to the PC before I haven't turned on "USB Debugging Mode" .

Is there any way that I can connect my tablet to the PC without this option being selected so that I can try a factory reset.

Also it is an unbranded tablet so none of the shortcuts (eg. hold power button and vol+ ) work.

Any help is appreciated thanks.
[XDA Assist] Heisenberg:
Hi :)

Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Unfortunately there's really not much we can do when it comes to unbranded devices such as this, there's just no information available for them which makes them pretty much impossible to troubleshoot. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Good luck!
[XDA Assist] aaronmolloy:
All I know is that its a Chinese tablet KV78PH-21. Is that of any help to you?
[XDA Assist] Heisenberg:
Unfortunately not, like I said there's really nothing that we can do to help you unfortunately. Sorry, and good luck with your phone.

Thread closed, thanks.

Doesn't look like the T-Mobile Z3 will get any root support. So is there any dark themes? I am so tired of these white backgrounds...
[Xperia Z3 Themes and Apps] -XperiaMan-:
Sorry dude :( If I am right , there is no way to get black backgrounds without root ... :crying:
[Xperia Z3 Themes and Apps] JazzaYWB:
That's actually incorrect. There are a few themes with black background in the settings on the Play Store. One of which is called "theme eXPERIANZ black Pro Z" By Ven1aone.

And another called "Theme Experiam Black Pro" by FNPROJEC. Neither of them require root.
[Xperia Z3 Themes and Apps] qais9:
Do both of those have black messaging?
[Xperia Z3 Themes and Apps] JazzaYWB:
Not sure. Download them and check. They are the only two black themes I've seen on the Play Store that change the background to black in settings, and use a white font instead of the usual black or dark grey. If you don't like it, you could always refund too.

Um...I managed to root on lollipop. Haven't been able to get recovery working though.

Use King root. N then to get rid of King root follow the instructions I found here....

http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/How-to-Remove-Replace-KingUser-KingRoot-with-SuperSU.html?m=1

I tried the app on play store that replaces King user with no luck. I also tried flashing back to kit kat and got a boot loop.... Dunno why.? but the above method did give me root.
[Xperia Z3 Themes and Apps] puddlejumperxxx:
Yes it is possible to root tmobile with the kingroot app. Also I have twrp installed using this :

[Verizon LG G2] jahulgan:
I am trying to get back to Stock Recovery need to warranty out my phone for a hardware issue. I have tried many methods listed in different searches and nothing works.

I used Flashify to drop TWRP recovery on my phone and it works great, but when I went to restore my Stock Recovery, it reboots and with no recovery? I get the recovery cover page "Factory hard reset" after pressing the Power key twice, I get a blank screen and have to do a hard shutdown. Factory Recovery doesn't seem to install. I can reboot and re-install TWRP Recovery and it works fine, just can't get back to "Stock Recovery".

Ideas or directions would be very helpful.

Thanks.
[Verizon LG G2] biggiesmalls657:
Did u flash roms? You have to go full stock or they ent fix it
[Verizon LG G2] michaelbsheldon:
You can easily get back to 100% stock with stock recovery to make Verizon happy.

Search this xda thread for VS98027A_05.kdz and put it on your phone with LG Flash Tool 2014.

Just follow the recipe exactly and it will work first time.

anybody know of a dual sim adapter that is known working with the note 4? Ordered a $5 one off amazon, but can't get it to work with my note 4, while it does work on the note 2.

in my searching, i keep coming across magic sim, but i don't really want to go and spend $40 on one not knowing if it will work for sure or not.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrispyutec:
I'm using Saige and I got it off amazon for under 4 bucks if my memory is right and it works like a charm. In the kit I purchased I got the remover tool, 3 different sizes of sim adapters and a desk mount phone holder. All straight from China lol!!!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc/dc:
That's a SIM adapter for a different SIM size, not one to enable the use of two SIMs at a time.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mandog202:
Don't really need both at the same time, I use google voice as my primary number, so calls go to both anyway. Its mainly so i can swap quickly without taking the phone out of the case. the coverage at work is dumb, T-mo works flawlessly on one side of the building while AT&T is near useless. and the other side its the exact opposite, and I frequently move between the two.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adanadhel:
Greetings, everyone.

I have an Xperia ZQ (C6503) which suddenly started rebooting itself continuously about 5 seconds after it enters the system (after the SONY or Xperia logo). First I tried removing several apps, deactivating functionalities on the short time available after each reboot.

I tried, then, flashing the STOCK Android 4.4.2 and 4.4.4. Nothing.

Did the process using PC Companion, it updated but still nothing.

Unlocked the phone (don't even know why I did that, guess I was desperate and thought this could help).

Tried flashing a custom ROM. Same thing.

As the mobile is warranty void (I bought it 2 years ago) my question is: is there still something I can do (something that they would try on the customer service, for instance) that can be attemped or my only option is to dispose of this cursed device? :/
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
Firstly, you've made a major mistake - you didn't take TA partition backup, as a result you've lost your DRM keys forever.

Secondly, have you checked all the boxes for WIPE'ing? (Data/system/caches)

You tried to flash custom rom through recovery or using fastboot?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adanadhel:
Hi, thanks for the reply.

None of the tutorials I followed mentioned anything about this TA partition. What is this and what are the DRM let's? All the boxes were always checked for wiping on classrooms and I flashed the custom ROM via fastboot.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
DRM keys is like a signature of the phone license. Without DRM keys your camera won't take good phones with drm keys, clear audio and bravia engine stops working either. Pushing any other phone's ta-partition backup will lead your phone to hard-brick.

Anyway, give a try to flash generic .ftf, or via phone recovery
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adanadhel:
Although it wouldn't recover the DRM keys, wouldn't this solve the issue you mentioned?

http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/xperia-z1-z2-z3-series-devices-drm-t2930672

I flashed several generic and specific .ftf and all of them presented the exact same result (the system didn't load correctly and the reboot loop continued). When you say via phone recovery you mean the PC Companion method? I did that, too and - once again - the result was exactly the same :/
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurynasVP:
Yeah, excatly only this way could restore all the DRM features.

About not working, I don't have any other ideas, sorry for that :/
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonev:
Use Emma to flash it. (Emma is a PC software) When you have started the application connect your phone to your pc while it is turned off and while you are holding the volume down button.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoey63:
You could have a corrupted partition('s) which may prevent flashtool writing the images. Possible solution is to fastboot a custom kernel and format EVERYTHING you can in recovery.

Then try to flash a stock ftf again. Good luck:thumbup:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XperiaZ77:
If you have an external micro sd card in your device take it out and then reboot your device without the sd card. Worked for me.(on xperia z c6603) The sd card caused the bootloop. Why it caused the bootloop i still don't know.

And if that does not work, wipe your dalvik cache in recovery

I also read the Roku 4 is due very soon I wonder if they intend to address gaming in anyway?

I can connect to internet on my tablet without problem.

I have the US version of the galaxy player with the capacitive home button and I have followed the steps for installing the kernel and rom but my home button doesn't work. Is there any way to make it work in this version or should I just enable the navbar?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] CoDEliteGhost:
For you men :

It's a copy and paste...

For devices from the United States (Capacitive home button):

- Flash Google Apps package

- Log in to your Google Account

- Download an "Home button emulator" from the Google Play Store
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Diabzik:
Bravo Androthan :) The best modded ROM for 3.6 wifi ever.

As already mentioned, the capacitive home button is something I would like to see working, as I have the US version and long press is the shortcut to recent apps. Otherwise I have nothing but good news to this ROM's functionality.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Androprise:
To fix the bootloop make sure to wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache in recovery.

---------- Post added at 06:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------

I have a temporary fix for the capacitive home button. You can enable the onscreen home, back and recent apps button (called the Navigation bar or navbar) by adding this line to the end of your /system/build.prop file

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

Make sure to enable root access mode* in the file explorer settings and make sure that the keyboard does not add any spaces in the line.

Reboot and you will have the onscreen buttons enabled.

If you want to remove or add buttons to the navbar go to Settings > System > Navigation Bar

*Menu > Settings > General Settings > Access Mode

touch root access mode

click allow on the superuser prompt

then select root access mode again.

No more booting into the "Download Mode", no more system, no recovery. :(

Any ideas to bring it back to life without "Download Mode" and recovery system?

[MENTION=6143042]Gardena69[/MENTION] I'm glad you persisted and triumphed. I also had some issues with entering download/recovery mode which I suppose was relating to keypress combination. The good news is this CM10 mod shows options to reboot to those modes by long-pressing the power button.

SoundAlive

Same question i did for another custom rom. I bought this device for its quality of player, the SoundAlive. This ROM contains this kind of quality player? If not, could i install V4A? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mavireck:
DSP Manager is included in this rom (it is the same app as V4A)

Just a question :

How hard would it be to port Sailfish to our GP3.6 ? The Nokia N9 has got a port and has the same cpu (omap3630).

A porting guide is available on Jolla's website.

And what about Ubuntu Touch ? The Galaxy SL also have a booting build ;)

It would be great for our old device :)

I'm impressed, cm10 is so stable ! I am using it since you released it and I had no reboots or anything !
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Diabzik:
I use this device primarily for music and this is one of the items I disabled, the other being the Apollo player since it really seems lacking and doesn't recognize artwork in the file tags (possibly it is version 1.0). I prefer to keep using the JRT Studio AOSP music player as I did back on GB.

I've only encountered one issue: when sending the file over BT I had not enabled BT in advance and was asked to enable BT; after waiting the BT status icon was lit but I was not given the list of devices to share; no matter how many times I manually disabled and re-enabled BT it still wouldn't work; soft reboot did not fix the issue; hard reboot brought things back to normal.

A mere bump in the road compared to the massive bugs in GB where too often receiving a file would bork the device into reboot :mad: That instability has not reappeared since switching to CM10. [MENTION=5050467]Androthan[/MENTION]: Thanks again for this ROM :)
