Ok so I'm totally new to this way of interacting with my phone.

I installed ADB and the proper drivers. I can get "on" my device. I could copy the NfcNci file from the phone to my pc.

But when trying to copy (push) the modded file it says "Read-only file system".

I tried to find out how to change that but I read about a lot of commands like mount, so I'm not sure if that's correct and safe.

Can anyone help me out here?

And BTW does the device need to be rooted (is that what you call it?) to copy this new modded file to it?

Thanks already!

Hey everybody,

is there any chance to create this awesome Mod for the new Xperia Firmware 23.4.A.0.546?

With the current update it won't work anymore.

I have tried to modify the apk but without success.

Thanks' a lot.

Heres a modified NfcNci.apk I compiled with the NFC screen off polling enabled. Its based on the NfcNci.apk I pulled from the .546 Xperia Z3 rom, which I think is the same as the compact. Tested with moonbreakers custom rom and stock, and it works.

https://www.mediafire.com/?s8dx4dtrd8vsu2t

just rename it to "NfcNci.apk" and copy into /system/app/NfcNci, then fix permissions to 644 (-rw-r--r--)

of course, goes without saying, backup your rom using recovery first

If it doesn't work, if someone sends me an NfcNci.apk from a z3 compact rom, I can recompile it with the mods also
[Xperia Z3 Compact Themes and Apps] Hans_Werner:
Thank you very much 'tonysunshine'

The mod works like a charm with firmware .546 Xperia Z2. :good:

Great work and best regards

Hi all,

Not sure if this has already been reported or even if this is a bug for anyone else, I have searched and could not find anything so here goes..

T-mobile Vario II running Custel Windows Mobile 6 - 2.5

I have found when in office mobile 2007 - word and writing a document, I will close word which will auto save.

come back to it later and finish the document.

While still in word open messaging to attempt to email the document.

However, messaging fails to open.

The same if you then close word and try to open messaging - nothing.

This results in a hard reset every time.

Not sure if this is WM6, office mobile 2007 or custel bugs?

can anyone else confirm issue's ? or fix

Many thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pvs:
No, I do not have this issue. While in Word, I can open messaging and send emails, and the Menu->File->Send also works fine. No problems using Messaging features after closing Word, either.

Maybe there's an incompatibility with some other software you have installed.

When you say this causes a 'Hard Reset'...are you sure you're using the right term? A Hard Reset clears the device back to it's original ROM-Only configuration. If that's what's happening, this is really bad.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ukmdb:
Ooops Sorry Soft reset...

No other software installed,

I have just tried again opening a small word file

then oped messaging and it opened.

closed messaging and tried to open another word doc and had to soft reset

due to freezing.

All documents are stored direct on the device and not on memory card.

Believe something has gone astray somewhere. if everyone else appears to be ok then it looks like a re-install will be ready.

thanks for the input pvs

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scray XXI:
I am making this thread because I took the OC1 update while rooted and I am asking more experienced members what I should do next.

I mistakenly took the OTA because I had read somewhere that some users upgraded from 4.3 to 4.4 with root from the OTA. I was wrong.

The OC1 OTA removed my root and prevented me from upgrading to LP. I have flashed other kernels and tried everything. I have read every thread in this forum on the topic and I see it mentioned that if I did take the OTA that I no longer had root, but I have found nothing else.

It is my understanding that after taking the OTA that I'll never have root again. Is there at least some way to get my phone completely back to stock and on LP?

Yeah I know it was a rookie mistake and I shouldn't have been so rash but I am here now and I don't know what to do, even after sifting through all the threads about Verizon's LP OTA.

Thank you for all of your help in advance.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scray XXI:
This causes a boot loop.

However, I was actually able to towelroot on NC5 before the phone restarted, so I am now rooted again! When I encountered this boot loop the first time, I just went back to NK1 instead of trying to towelroot in-between reboots.

I probably could have also cleared cache before reverting back to NC5. Thanks for the help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RedsonRising:
If the LP update failed then you were not on OC1. There were two updates. The first was still KitKat NK4. The second was OC1. Those that were rooted were able to take NK4 but the OC1 tended to fail. So there is probably still hope.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Omali1017:
I had a similar issue , but I flashed the stock 5.0 ROM using Odin on my computer, but now when I try to flash back to NK1 it softbricks it.

I was able to to flash it back to the stock 5.0 ROM using Odin. I guess there's no downgrading after I did what I did....

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mango Polo:
Guys.. Do you agree that the camera quality of our i9500 device sucks? It is very strange to notice that comparing to the iPhone camera it is a couple of time worse! How can the camera of the Galaxy S4 Active shoot videos and make photos much more better quality than this device? Is there any development thread here where people create patches or camera mods to uncrease the quality? I saw a video recorded on an S4 Active in a car at night with only the dim light of the car on... and the video was so damn stable and the lights where so damn optimized.... how come the i9500 camera be so low on quality? Can you advice me anything to rise up this thing?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuk1maar:
Make sure your lens is clean! If it's not 100% clean, your camera will perform A LOT worse.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mango Polo:
iyou are right about the lens but anyway... this is a half of the solution... arent there any mod available for Lollipop?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuk1maar:
I use an I9505, and we have the Galaxy S6 camera, which makes our video very stabilized. Perhaps you have that too availible?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mango Polo:
We have a port for that but the ROM it'self is soooo very unstable... What I am asking is maybe that there are some settings that are limited or some blocked ones, who knows...Because I read the cameras are the same between S4 models... so why should the quality be different?

For example if a light gets a little in the photo, that side of the photo will be very blury, but on an S4 active you never get such mess. On some websites they write that Active has a Back-Illuminated Sensor and i9500 doesnt. Is it because of this? Because other websites write that Active doesnt have and i9500 has... It is very confusing...

Anyway, if any Active user is reading now, let's post some comparing images for people to understand what I am talking about.

Even others say that their i9500 camera is very low on picture stabilization/ focus comparing to s2 and s3 models.... Why did Samsung make it like that?

Even when I have 900 MB of internal storage I can't move apps to Internal storage.

Why so? Can't I move apps to internal storage and can only be movable to External storage?

Hi all, a feature I want from custom ROMs is the ability to skip tracks using the volume keys. I now saw that alliance ROM has this feature with update 2.

- I am rooted using PingPong root

- I can't flash ROMs because I want to keep my Knox counter to 0x0

- Xposed doesn't work on Samsung based 5.0 ROMs yet

Is there any other possibility to get this feature without using all the bugged apps on the playstore?

Just tried Pocket Skip Track and it doesn't even work. :D

Edit: Using Spotify.

Does anyone know how to do this?

There is no way to do this at this point. This is a feature baked into AOSP and CM ROMs, or once Xposed gets functional (if ever), we can go about it that way.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NextGenV:
Hi guys. I've been being a XDA reader for a long time so, today I decided to register in this great community.

As a Xperia phone owner (actually, I don't own a Xperia Z2 but I thought I rather post this question in this subforum since it's a general Xperia phones question and Z2 subforum is crowded, lol), I would like to know which flashing method is more effective when trying to recover a bricked phone: 'fastboot mode' or 'flash mode'.

I ask this question because my Xperia M2 is stuck in bootloop (I can power it on and both Sony and Xperia logo appears but when the "purple waves screen" appears, handset does nothing else, just keeps showing that purple screen with waves in motion).

I've been trying out to flash a .FTF file with Flashtool but to no avail. Once process is finished and reboot my phone, it gets stuck at same "purple waves screen".

The problem is that the bootloader isn't unlockable unless I send my phone to Sony Technical Service to change "Unlock Bootloader Allowed" to Yes (they can do it for free since my contract with carrier is finished). But before doing so (in order to enable fastboot commands), I would like to know whether or not it worths sending the phone to Sony. So:

Is there any chance I could recover my phone trying out to flash a ROM with fastboot commands enabled (bootloader unlockable and unlocked) knowing I wasn't able to recover it with 'flash mode' (flashtool)?

If so, which steps should I take? Maybe extracting .SIN files from within .FTF file? Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

PD: Before flashtool, I also tried to recovery the phone using official PC Companion, but with same result as flashtool.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
You cant realy recover a phone through fastboot (aside flashing a stock kernel.sin)

(asuming a custom kernel on LB is the cause)

There are many reasons for a brick but the most common ways of unbricking would be forcing off the device and flashing a FTF which can only be done via flashmode
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NextGenV:
Thanks for your reply, Envious_Data. If I flashed an entire ROM (.FTF Stock ROM file) with flashtool, kernel is supposed to have been replaced with stock one after the process, isn't it?

What do you suggest to do further? Firstly, I tried PC Companion. Then I tried Flashtool. My next step was going to be trying to unlock bootloader to enable fastboot commands but, from what you said, maybe that's not worth it... Any chance I could recover my phone myself without sending it to Sony? If I send it to Sony to convert BootLoader to Unlockable ("Unlock Bootloader Allowed: YES"), will the phone be recovered "collaterally" (maybe, to do so, they do a fresh ROM install and that fix the bootloop problem, I don't know, what do you think)?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
They wont do that, they will refuse to help you unlock your bootloader unlockable

I recomend flashing a FULL FTF because it should fix your device if it isnt suffering hardware damage.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NextGenV:
If your contract with carrier is finished, Sony can and, in deed, does convert the bootloader status from "Unlock Bootloader Allowed: NO" to "Unlock Bootloader Allowed: YES", but you have to send your phone to Sony Technical Service. From what I've been reading, in that process, techs do some flashing jobs, so maybe phone gets recovered collaterally... Any clue?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] das.dian24:
Have you tried waiting a bit for it to fully boot up? Seems like you just came from flashing and booting up the phone may take a while. I tried flashing LP rom earlier today, and it took me 20 mins before the phone boots up completely.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NextGenV:
Hi das.dian24. Yes, I've been waiting for it to boot up more than 20 minutes, even 30 or 40 mins, but no luck. It's so weird. I can't believe I can't fix this bootloop problem flashing the phone either with flash mode or with fastboot mode. I don't think that's a hardware problem.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] das.dian24:
Now thats really weird, i only experienced this kind of bootloop when i mistakenly formatted /system and forgot to flash any rom after that. Maybe not a hardware problem since the phone boots up til bootanimation and the fact that u can flash roms successfully.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NextGenV:
Maybe, if I manage to unlock bootloader, I could recover my phone just flashing system.sin through fasboot mode with "fastboot flash system system.sin" command... What do you guys think?

[One (M9) Accessories] stevedebi:
This is a compact and really good looking design; I was expecting something much more bulky. With the phone inside, the case is no thicker than my Otterbox Defender (my daily case). The case is obviously made of high quality leather; not cheap, but not Napa leather either. The design is pretty unusual in that it has a TPU case inside, attached to the leather. I like this because it provides good protection - there is more than just leather protecting the phone. There are cutouts for the camera and microphone on the rear, which are well sized and placed, and the case closes by means of a magnetic clasp that is easy to open and close. Part of the rear will fold over, so that the case functions as a stand as well. Everything about the case worked well. The case comes with a carrying strap that can be easily removed if desired.

The interior has a slot for ID and three credit cards. There is a place for money, but it is sized to fit the phone length, and so you will have to fold the bills to fit - I don't think you could carry a "wad" of bills there, but it is OK for light use. The TPU case has cutouts at all the right places, and all buttons worked fine.

The only quality question I have is the TPU attachment to the case. It is not sewn in; I suppose it must be glued to the case. It seems sturdy enough, but if there is a weak link in the design, this is it. However, I suspect that if the glue did come off, it could be re-glued again, and in any case with the phone inside the case it won't ever flex at this spot.

The case is a bit pricy, but in my opinion if you want this sort of design, this is a great choice. When I need a more formal case, this is the one I will use.
