So this is a hybrid Recovery, can we use Non-CAF roms with this one? and is multirum useable?

Would love to see the possibility using a CAF rom as Primary and Android M as Secundaire !

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] u2588kid:
Some of you might know, that a software update for lollipop/lollipop preparation came out today. Anyhow, I tried to install the update and I got the familiar "software not recognized by Verizon, please take to nearest store." I, fortunately, know how to get out of it (hold home + power down + power - pres down to restart). My phone was rooted, no custom Roms (never figured out how to unlock Verizon's boot loader), just some apps like battery saver and ROM manager. I uninstalled root apps and unrooted, but still can't install the update. I assume I might need to restore my phone, or reset something. Any help would be appreciated.

As you can see it failed twice.

hi there,

i have a SM-9005( Australian Telstra) which i bought used a couple of weeks/ about a month ago. NOT KNOWING WHAT I WAS DOING i tried to install android 5.0 via odin but, the thing that i did'nt realise was that it was the hong kong firmware after installing it i encountered a problem something like " binary (number) < (number) i figured that it was because when i decided to install it the storage was about 95% full and it only had like 300mb left so i just went into recovery and restored the phone. after successfully installing 5.0 i noticed that the phone was starting to be glitchy as in system would'nt respond (lag) no sound and camera and mic and calling wouldn't work. so i decided it was best to just roll back to the old os 4.4.2 and thats what i did. after doing so i realised that the same problems were still there "no in/outgoing call, no sound, no Google Now, no S-Voice, no camera, slow lock screen and slow settings" after trying to research and not finding anything that would help me ( mainly as my phone is Australian variant) i decided to install a custom rom Cyanogenmod, although this fixed the camera the other problem were still there and after trying to even restore from a nandroid backup via twrp recovery the problem has still not been resolved and well....:crying:

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon148:
The only way I know Is to get the right ftf file for your handset and flash it back to 4.4.4, if you can't find the right firmware for your phone, then you may have to create your own using xperifirm and flash tool. either way you will keep iemi number and be able to flash it on a locked bootloader.

Some issues with CM12.x on my Sola:

* SIM is never detected, so it can't be used as a phone, tried all the weekly builds including ArchDroid SlimLP builds, clean or dirty upgrades, ext4 or f2fs, with or without Gapps, removing or adding SIM, nothing helps, it will never detect the SIM.

* plenty of random (soft) reboots

* "Android upgrade" on _every_ (soft)reboot.

Any ideas on how to fix these?

just being curious..

Hi there, good job with this awesome rom. I 'm on rooted 2.3.7 (GB) and I was planning to move to this rom before buying something else. Now please don't get mad, I know what is working and what's not. I often use FM Radio (the stock as I travel a lot and have no free mobile data..). I just don't understand why FM does not work and will not be supported as I see. Is it a driver from sony that is not availabe to devs or something else? Is it possible to install the stock fm radio apk and its service manually? If the problem is the driver, can't it be "exported" from munjenis 4.1.2 port rom? Moreover if that matters I have a bakup of my DRM keys.. If those libraries (or whatever they are) are not open source or there is a limitation and so on they can't be included in CM Roms is there any way I can import them myself?

Thanks for keeping our crappy phones alive (something that sony failed-doesn' want to do a long time ago..)

Weekly 9:

Is anyone else getting a fail to wakeup when recharging?

Say you connect it to recharge ( no matter what battery percentage ), and 2 things might happen:

* the battery status led will get to green and then will be off when disconnected

or

* the battery status led stays orange while recharging and EVEN after it's disconnected

Either way pressing the Power button does not wake up the device, having "wake up on connection" option enabled does not help, it needs a forced reboot to recover.

At least it's better than Weekly-8 where it would spontaneously reboot TO RECOVERY all by itself while recharging!!!!?!?!?

And another thing, even using battery calibrator, the current stat seems wrong, and this happens a lot, say it's at 40%, I open mobile data and close the screen, it does not need to download anything, after a few minutes I open it and now it's at 10% battery, so I reboot it only to say that it's at 25% after that.

Does GPS really work on Sola?

Using Google (high precision) aka. wifi/mobile data I do get some sort of position on the map, yes it's a few hundred meters wrong but it's in the same city.

Using "GPS on device only" though, added local ntp servers, modified supl to google or sony, added gpsonextra links, got sefix, stand inside, by the window, outside, all to no avail, both GPS Status and GPS Test *see* a dozen satellites from above yet the phone does not connect/get a position what so ever. :(

Any other advice?

/LE: Tested GPS, no go, wrote this post then I closed apps/gps/screen, so I'll open the phone 1 hour later, opened gps, gps status says it locked my position and it took only 330sec.... while it was with gps off in my pocket... rrriiiiggggghhhttttt.

Power saver mode is also not working as well. Any suggestions for battery improvement and performance
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Licaon_Kter:
Nope, battery is a wildcard on mine too, maybe it works great, maybe it drains 15% in 30min. :(

Power saver mode was ok most of the time, a few days ok it did not put the red status bar when activated, until a reboot.

Also random reboots while charging are common, yep even nasty ones that do an Android Upgrade just because...

And there is the nice go to bed with battery at 100%, wake up to find phone off and battery led red, turn it on ( Android Upgrade dammit ) only to see it was at 40% actually...

it is good but slowww and take lot of time to answer any call or to call some one take more time and some time stuck so what i must to do please
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Licaon_Kter:
There is nothing to do, not on user side anyway.

I'm on 4.0.4, the last official firmware ICS .54 for two weeks now, and while the stability in really good ( read: no apps crashes, no reboots ) all the other things are just the same:

* a/gps is useless as it never locks

* it chokes on more than one app even with swap

* battery is crazy aka half the time it just recharges WHILE IN MY POCKET

* and the cherry on top is that the dialer app is just as slow, just the other day it did it again: while having NO OTHER APPS OPEN, I was reading a message while I got a call and the "Incoming call" interface comes up and stays there for 20 seconds and then it shows the timer like I already answered 20 seconds ago, no sound whatsoever anyway, so I close the call, the interface switches back to messages and I get the call again but now the phone just rings and it does not show the call interface, it just sits there in the message app, hence I had to reboot it.

Yep, they put a lot of work on porting latest Android to this phone, and I thank them , but they can't fix some things, maybe Sony could but we know that won't happen... like ever.

On 5.1

I know the phone is status 2(unlocked), but not sure if the boot loader is unlocked. Seller is a reseller and not the original owner so I have no way to get the info. Is there any way to unlock this phone so I can use it without the original owners info, or would I be buying an expensive paperweight?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
No. Get a refund.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
Contact the seller immediately and request a refund, as SuperSU recommended. I would add to that, if you don't get a positive response from the seller within 24 hours, open a case for "device significantly not as described" in PayPal. It takes a while for these to be resolved, so getting it started is a good idea. You can cancel the case at any time.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] couldnthinkaone:
No, no. I didn't buy one yet. Just curious. But, with all the new security features in 5.1, and all the broken-screen N6's on EBay, I wanted to make sure before I did spend the money.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mkerr:
Sorry if this is asked constantly, i tried searching and couldn't see any threads about it.

Basically what i'm wanting to know is if it's possible to unlock a phone that's still locked to a specific carrier (eg, optus or telstra if you're in australia). is this what CID unlocking is?

If so, then i guess i can grab a hermes / jasjam from ebay that's selling for less because it's carrier locked, unlock it, and use it with my current sim card?

Thanks in advance for any advice. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ach2:
You're definately new with a question like that :)

Basically CID unlocking allows you to flash a ROM from any carrier and use it.

SIM unlocking allows you to use any SIM card with your existing (or any other) ROM.

If all you want to do is use a stock phone with any carrier I suggest you use POF's CID and SIM unlocker http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SimUnlock.

If you want to get better ROMS you'll need to do a whole pile more reading, and before flashing anything else start with Olipro's Hard-SPL 2.10 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=296722 and Mrvanx's Upgrade Guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=299462.

Other useful upgrade info can be found in this sticky http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=295751
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mkerr:
so all i'd need to do, assuming i keep the stock rom, is to sim unlock it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ach2:
Yep, if you SIM unlock you can use the phone as supplied but with any carriers SIM card.

Oh yes, welcome to XDA-developers - I think if you read a bit more you will realise the benefits of the cooked ROMs here and later want to upgrade - it's highly addictive :) :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ach2:
One further bit of advice if buying one of these phones from ebay - ask the seller for a picture of the phone when switched on so you can check it has a radio signal - also get him to confirm that it doesn't display NO GSM on the bottom right when it is booting. The NO GSM indicates a brick which may or may not be fixable by the tools we have here.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mkerr:
cheers for the reply :D

at the moment i've got an imate k-jam, and have been reading up about cooked roms etc, but didn't realise exactly what the unlocking involved (except that it let you play with the roms).
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ab1983:
I have recently encountered more of an annoyance rather than a problem that got my head scratching. It is location and GPS related, so I searched for Galaxy S6 GPS problems in google, and I have noticed that some owners experience a lot of signal loss/searching in their phones. What I have found annoying in my case is that whenever the GPS signal is lost, Google Maps puts me in a wrong location that I have not been to for a while (around one month). I have lived in that location before, but I have since moved and no longer stay there. I have purchased the phone after moving. After a bit of experimenting I came to the conclusion that the building I currently live in blocks the GPS signal, since whenever I am in the balcony/near a window I get a signal and I'm put in the correct location in Google Maps. As soon as the signal is lost, Maps automatically puts me in that old location. This has also effected Google Now where I'm given incorrect travel times and directions, but not my weather location (set on current).

I have set 'Home' to my new location, I have also tried deleting my location history from google, tried a few GPS fixing apps, reinstalling Maps, and also installing other map applications like Here and Waze, which behave the same way and give me the same old location as my current.

At first I thought it could be a GPS hardware defect in the galaxy, but I turned on my old HTC One (M8) and it acted and behaved in the same way putting me in my old location. So it seems to me there's something in the Android OS perhaps since Here and Waze act in the same way. I also tested with the Maps app on an iPhone 6 and it gave the correct location although not 100% accurate. So is there anyway I can make Maps at least remember my last location before signal loss?

It is also absurd that my laptop can pinpoint my correct location while connected on Wifi while my phone with GPS, wifi and cell network cannot, which in conclusion seems like an android bug or something with location history in my google account which as I said already tried deleting the whole history.

Also note that the GPS and Maps work perfectly fine whenever I'm outside the building.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtg465x:
Google Maps has had weird location issues on Android since January or February. Affected the GPS accuracy / function of my Nexus 5 as well. I think the bug is actually in Google Play Services framework, not in AOSP or the Maps app.
