I will be trying this Out the weekend if I get a chance,

Followed the locked bootloader topics for a while but knew someone would eventually get in!

Good job,

I'll post back with how I get on

Doing this with d2203 4.4.4 with a windows 8 laptop

So hopefully that will be OK

Can then clear some space on the damn phone
[Sony Xperia E3] atomicr:
Now it is time for Cwm to resolve. ;)

Edit: Can bootloader be unlocked with Flashtool BLU option?

In service menu I have: Bootloader unlock allowed: No

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henrypootel:
I'm running cyanogen 12 on my M8, and I want to use the phone as an activity tracker.

I tried installing Fitbit, but it won't let me use the phone itself as a step tracker.

I also tried using Google Fit, Runtastic pedometer, and HTC's Fun Fit thing, but none of them seem to be able to use the phone as a step tracker.

Does anyone know of any way to make fitbit or some other app work?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobmannh:
FitBit works for me on a GPE formatted phone, at least from a counting steps perspective.

Phone: No. 1 Note 4

This phone comes with a battery that is 2800mAh and is labeled on the wrapping to be 3.70v

Now i saw a replacement battery that is 3800mAh, but is is labeled as 3.85v.

Trying to understand the Li-ion batteries, i have read the voltage is not constant anyway on this type of battery.

So what i am basically trying to figure out, is if i can safely use the replacement battery that is just 0.15v more than the original, or will this damage the phone?

Anyone that know some more about this and can tell/explain to me if, and why this can or cant ?

thank you in advance
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kyle07:
Hi Guys,

So I managed to get my Z3 - D6603 to a state that I wanted: Lollipop, root and working Xposed. Only thing left to do was restore TA (Relock bootloader) so that I had all DRM functionality back - Perfect Device would result. I used Devshaft's tool to restore the backup I had taken before unlock of BL.

The fun started after the tool finished the restore and reboot the device, or rather, tried to reboot the device. The device was practically dead with only red LED visible with USB connected or a short vibrate when power button pressed. Nothing else (Very scary). Eventually managed to get the device to flash with flashtool in flashmode, no wipe. Device booted fine and on inspection I see the bootloader is infact relocked.

My question now is, what caused the 'Brick'? I would like to obtain root again by unlocking bootloader again, flashing Androplus and SuperSU, restore TA and relock. This time without getting the fright of my life thinking I had bricked my new and very expensive device. Any tips? Don't really want to data wipe again to go the PFCreator route.

Ch33rz,
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 6435605:
Custom kernel and locked BL

Hey !

Relock bootloader (result of TA restore) with a custom kernel (Androplus,...) will soft brick the device. You can't boot a device with a locked bootloader and a custom kernel.

Don't panic, you can't hardbrick your device (but if you unplug your device during TA restore, you will brick it) !
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kyle07:
Thanks for the reply, man.

Okay, that makes sense. However, when I did the restore I had this "Stock" kernel flashed and not Androplus. Is this still not an acceptable kernel? What criteria does the kernel need to fulfil to allow a successful restore without a soft brick?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
No, that kernel has been modified so it is not stock

When on a locked bootloader you need the completely stock kernel, if it has been decompiled and recomiled (even with no changes) your phone will not boot on it.

Flash a FTF file or force a repair using PCComapnion to fix it
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kyle07:
Thank you. That clarifies it nicely.

Some sort of integrity check at play here?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
The fact is we do not know Sony keys, without them a locked bootloader will only boot a stock kernel
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kyle07:
In hindsight that was a silly question. Appreciate your patience.

Still getting accustomed to modifying a Sony. Initially quite different to other Androids I've modded - mostly Samsungs.

Please tell me this works with Cataclysm?

[Android Themes] danarama:
I believe Cataclysm is an RRO ROM.

Please not though, all 5.1 ROMs are incomplete compared to 5.0.x because they don't yet have the ambient display invert commits added, so expect some problems on 5.1

Awesome work, no issue on OnePlus One with SlimLP rom, there is just an icon missing for Mobile Networks but all the others are here (and that's the first Layer I tried that has them all - 1)
[Android Themes] danarama:
The annoying thing is that that icon *is* actually themed, but some roms have renamed it. I was hoping the rom devs would put it back to what ti ws but it seems I'm just going to have to double up on that icon.
[Android Themes] martiii:
Thanks for the dope Layer. In use with my N5 & Cataclysm

[Android Themes] danarama:

Looks very good, apart from the chroma icon being pixelate

EDIT: Also when you have to choose with app you want to open a link etc. The app you click on gets whited out
[Android Themes] danarama:
Are you on 5.1?

I think the whiteout might be because 5.1 doesn't have all the invert commits that we had for dark themes in 5.0.2
[Android Themes] GtrCraft:
Yes I am on Chroma 5.1
[Android Themes] danarama:
Same as me. Can't really do a lot until 5.1 catches up to 5.0.2 with layers. If it catches up and continues to happen, I will look at it but even my other themes started to do it now, since upgrading to 5.1
[Android Themes] Djalaal:
If you don't do requests just ignore this message. Is it possible to do a green half theme? Green is a colour that is not used much for theming, and I love green ;)
[Android Themes] danarama:
I did actually put 4 mocked-up schemes to the vote on the layers g+ community. I wasn't going to make all the themes, but the results basically had both cyan and purple at around 80 votes, then green in 3rd place with 6 votes. 4th was fuscia . I probably won't make a green one on the strength of that to be honest.
[Android Themes] Djalaal:
Ah, I see. Can't blame you. I guess very few people share my opinion. Too bad for me I guess. Although... is it easy making a RRO theme btw? Maybe I could attempt it myself. Mind you, I have no experience theming anything.
[Android Themes] danarama:
Slight fix added V1_1 - added new boolean for Android 5.1 Ambient Display Invert fix
[Android Themes] danarama:
OK so we have the commits now and I still saw that whiteout. Strange thing is its not every time. For example I got an email as I was mentioned. I clicked the link and the selection came up and I saw it. However I've clicked the link too and the selection is different now so I don't see it. I'm not sure how to easily reproduce this now.
[Android Themes] GtrCraft:
Believe me, I saw it in every layer I tried. Settings, new whatsapp, app chooser. Too much white. It's not just you but (I think) a layer problem
[Android Themes] danarama:
I found it.
[Android Themes] danarama:
Can't get it out today, but this is what it could (probably will) look like..

This issue is in all my themes, so I'll have to redo them all over the course of this week - but I'll do this one first - tomorrow.
[Android Themes] danarama:
re-uploaded V1_1

Full changes:

* Added 5.1 Invert Commits

* Fixed Settings > About phone > status background colours

* Fixed App ResolverList highlightcolour

* Changed ResolverList Background colour to be more in keeping with theme
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emmmile:
Some days ago I had a working moto g XT1032 with stock android at version 5.0.2 (en.GB version). Unfortunately I decided to downgrade to 4.4.4 and I soft bricked the device. I lately found that the procedure to downgrade is slightly different from the normal firmware installation procedure (here). That guide states that executing the extra commands I gave the device could hard brick. At least in my case it was a soft brick because i still was able to reach the bootlaoder.

In "some way" :p I managed to install a recovery and finally flash a CM ROM from the recovery (it's a NIGHTLY 5.02). So I'm very happy that I got my phone back but I still have some problems, in particular I have no signal. I tried to:

flash a radio from here, also erasing the dalvik cache, but it doesn't work.

the following commands in fastboot mode but no luck also in this case:

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot

I used the only 5.0.2 firmware I was able to find, the BRASIL_XT1032_5.0.2_LXB22.46-28_cid12_CFC.xml.zip available from here. I'm not sure that flashing a NON-HLOS.bin from another android version can make a mess or not, but I will try.

Any other idea? Under Settings -> About phone -> Status this is the current situation:

Thank you in advance :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meticulus:
I'm still new to this device and the one I have is CDMA but a radio log would say a lot more about the problem. If you're familiar with adb then:

adb logcat -d -b radio > /sdcard/log.txt

if not, google it. :laugh:

I had the same problem back when Gpe 5.0.1 came out, i flashed the radios from the oldest to the newest, and i couldn't get it working, but after 200+ reboots it came back. Im really not sure how i did this, but i've read a long time ago that some guy also had this same problem, and it also magically appeared back. I haven't had any problems since.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emmmile:
Well I'm probably around 30-40 reboots :D Still a long way to ~200.

Others ideas? Today I'll also try another sim and I'll see.. Could be related to the ROM I'm using?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emmmile:
I managed to get the signal back reflashing the 4.4.4 stock firmware with fastboot. Then, even wiping everything and formatting system, the signal is now working with CM12.

Anyway this thing is a bit mysterious and any explanation would be appreciated.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinkymonk:
I flashed the soak test rom and i have factory reset my phone for like six or seven times. Still the low storage issue comes up eventually. Also the first reboot after factory reset after lollipop has never been successful. It gets stuck on the M logo and eventually i end up long press power button. After that it boots fine.

My issue is that internal storage keeps getting low and lower. When i reset i had 540 mb and now with exact same apps is around 180 mb. Which repels any app update due to insufficient storage. Junk cleaner Doesn't helps much. To keep off the constant low storage notification i am forced 5o manually delete data from messenger app from facebook which is always around 50mb. Damn i am pissed on lollipop.. i wish i could roll back but that process is way too complicated and also i am addicted to the lock screen notifications and oter features of lollipop.. so any substantial help would be greatly appreciated. Device is not rooted.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErikFry:
I was getting almost 2 days when I first started using the note4. After a few months passed I noticed battery life dropping pretty fast throughout the day. Factory resets helped a little, but not much. Lollipop upgrade plus factory reset has seemed to help. I get through a full day now with light browsing/gps(maps)/gaming and fair amount of spotify streaming. Nothing close to what I was getting fresh out of the box.

I am experiencing similar battery issues. Used to charge my phone once every two days. Now, I carry my charger attached to my hip like a feeble iPhone hipster.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcasper:
I'm also having issues!

I also have seen a large decrease in my battery life since updating to Lollipop. I tried factory resetting twice and nothing seems to help. I was getting 8-9 hours of screen on time on Android 4.4.4 but now I'm somewhere between 4.5-5.5.

Also my note 4 will occasionally get really hot after just normal web browsing. I'm very disappointed in the update. However, performance seems to be a little better....but it wasn't ever really an issue.

I just read an article on gsmarena about the international version of the Samsung galaxy note 4 receiving a firmware update.....hopefully that fixes the problems we're having. We just have to wait for Verizon to send out the update. (Which will probably take a couple of weeks to months).

One thing to keep in mind is that we (those who are having these issues) need to make sure that we contact Verizon in order to make sure that they acknowledge the problem and send out a fix ASAP.

Passpoint Wi-Fi

Noticed that there is a "new" Passpoint Wi-Fi feature that will automatically connect to certified access points.

This is ON by default after the Lollipop update. (Settings >> Wi-Fi >> Advanced)

I just turned it off to see if battery life improves. Never been a fan of automatic Wi-Fi connection features.

My Note originally for a couple of days had the battery drain issue. However, after uninstalling the Google Fit app then a reboot the battery life has been great.

Maybe try a battery pull for 20 seconds as well.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcasper:
I think the easiest way to contact Verizon is just by talking with the technical support. Good representatives are hit or miss but Verizon's are generally good.

If you contact them just explain the issue that you are having and they should be putting it on record saying that multiple people are calling in concerning a battery problem. They may have even figured out the culprit (s) and/or found a fIx.

I'm going to be calling today.

The Unlock Pros = The Scam Pros

They've done the same thing to me. They got me to send my $900 phone in for IMEI repair after they've screwed it up remotely. They use a UPS Store mailbox as shipping address.

Once they got the phone they started ignoring my emails and phone calls. When I finally got someone with the username "Scott" one their website live chat, he was rude first and later mocked me, called me stupid, dumb and all the f words for asking about my phone.

Never do business with these guys. They are thieves and they continue to steal phones because they assume people won't waste their time and money to sue them for stealing their cell phones. At least that's what the Scott guy told me after insulting me online. Also they think or assume your phone is stolen so you won't do anything if they steal from you.

They do provide the remote unlock and IMEI repair but this is just their way to make their business look legitimate. In reality the look for opportunities to have you ship your phone in. For example they will intentionally screw up the phone then as you to ship it in.

By the way, they will show you a mail label to make you think that they'll ship your phone back to you soon. This is just a trick, Kiss your phone goodbye if you've made the mistake like me to ship your phone to these scammer.
