hi guys

i tested some methods such as prfcreator but none of them worked

i always got boot loops

so the final method that worked was this :

i have c5502 but it will work on c5503 as i tested it on xperia c3 and xperia z

1-flash the complete ftf file

2- flash custom kernel with recovery

i used this one Stock 4.4.4 Kernel with recovery By xenius9

3-copy the ftf file (so u wont damage the original one) in the firmwares folder

4- open the ftf file with winrar and delete every file in it except "rpm.sin" "kernel.sin" "loader.sin" "META-INF" and close winrar

5- copy the attached supersu flashable file into your sdcard (it must be version 2.37 other versions won't work)

6- flash the kernel in fastboot mode

7- enter recovery and flash the supersu

8- go to power option and power off your device

9-flash the ftf file that you copied and edited

now you have root access

update supersu in play store and open it to update su binary

hope this will help

i'm not responsible if you damaged your phone in anyway by doing this method
[Sony Xperia ZR] Jrobah:
works so well. tanks got root now. wanted to revert back to custom as i wait for root but thanks to you now i have root
[Sony Xperia ZR] jamesmalit3:
This works on my device, C5502, using US firmware. I have also successfully restored my TA backup after all the steps. Thank you so much! :)
[Sony Xperia ZR] xenius9:
Other root method:

1. flash firmware(use flashtool)

2. if you have unlocked BL - flash boot.img (w twrp recovery)(use flashtool)

3. if BL is locked - unlock BL(use flashtool)(make ta backup if needed) and go to step 2

4. download and push to sdcard supersu installer

5. reboot to recovery and flash supersu

boot.img w TWRP 2.8.6 recovery for stock android 5.0.2 for uncloked BL - https://yadi.sk/d/YwnCch0HgoAVB
[Sony Xperia ZR] jamesmalit3:
Thank you so much for the recovery :)
[Sony Xperia ZR] zxcxda:
I relocked BL and upgraded to 5.0.2 successfully via PC Companion.

Following the instruction, I have unlocked BL again, it went to factory reset. Continuing flash boot.img and I got this error: "writing 'boot'... failed (remote command not allowed)"

Any help, please?

So guys, I have some quick questions. I have already Unlocked my Bootloader. (Also took TA backup before unlocking.)

Now i want to flash .454 fw. So do i need to re-lock the bootloader before flashing the fw ?? or can i just flash it without re-locking????

I found the solution myself. No need to relock the bootloader. And Thanks [MENTION=3281397]xenius9[/MENTION] the recovery works flawlessly.
[Sony Xperia ZR] gspbeetle:
Do not even attempt to re-lock it, if you are using this method.

this method also works for android 5.1.1

just use the 10.7.A.0.222 ftf file instead

I was trying different lock screen settings apks on my G3 and like a dummy I forgot to make a backup of the original. Does anyone have the apk that I can install to get it back to normal?

[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsmith1223:
So as the title states I have the virgin mobile a5_chl variant and after flashing cm12 (build 05052015) I can no longer (or at least hardly ever) gain LTE signal back, no matter what ROM im on. It comes across saying I have no service and no signal and I can't text or call when trying to use LTE.

I have done the following to try and fix:

1. flash apn fix (obviously)

2. restore stock backup

3. try a different rom

4. completely RUU back to stock.

I believe the issue lies somewhere within the HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk but I'm not 100% sure about that. According to any thing i've found the HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk is the "vDM client" that allows for profile updates (when i try to do a profile update it either says vDM client has stopped responding or the the profile update could not be completed). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk but that only provided a fix once and when i rebooted my phone I lost signal again.

I'm pretty much at a loss as to what to do as virgin mobile gives me the usual run around that they are "having tower issues" so I'm hoping maybe someone on here can help out. If you need any further information please ask and I'll provide, I tried to be thorough when creating this thread. Thanks for any help.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] SiperX:
Normally Voice Speed Dial should be in Settings and not in Programs.

I have used Voice Speed Dial quite a lot in WM5 as I controlled almost totally by voice commands (calls to contacts, applications/utilities) my device.

I have recently upgraded to WM6 and with this rom (not having Voice Speed Dial in Settings) you can open it in Programs (so you can access its function but not the configuration/options), you save some voice tags and once you have closed it you cannot open it any more in order to add/remove/edit voce tags....

I hope I made myself understood... Any suggestion as how to fix this is welcome.

I have also noticed that WMP does not play MP4 files.... am I missing something?

Whatever WM6 rom you have flashed on you device, please check if this/these bug/s (?) is/are there and if not PLEASE tell me which rom dis you flash.

Thanks in advance,

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] channeledbymodem:
I'm looking to buy a refurbished G3 and although I'm on a T-Mobile MVNO and prefer T-Mobile devices for their unlocked bootloaders, an ebay reseller I trust is offering the VS985 in as new condition for a price that is about $50 less than the best I can find for the D851.

The Verizon development scene seems pretty healthy and root/TWRP seem to be readily available. I will probably stay with KitKat and install either CloudyG3 1.2 or Skydragon KK.

Is there any reason to prefer an unlocked AT&T D850 over the Verizon VS985? I realize that with either device I will not have T-Mobile wifi calling or VoLTE but I rarely make calls so that is not a priority,. Are there other significant reasons to avoid the Verizon/AT&T G3 in preference to the T-Mobile D851 I'm overlooking?

Thanks

PS - Still interested in this intellectually but I ended up buying a D851 for a very good price off Swappa.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultrasuper:
One reason might be the LTE bands supported by the VS985 variant. It may not support the necessary ones to get 4G LTE on T-Mobile's network.

How much did you end up getting the 851 for after all was said and done?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] channeledbymodem:
I have had both unlocked AT&T and Verizon phones in the New York City area and both of them got LTE everywhere it was available. I don't travel to remote areas (and if I did I probably wouldn't use TMO) so I don't miss the missing bands.

I paid $300 for a mint D851 on Swappa vs $275 for a mint VS985 from a reseller I trust on ebay. The average low price on the D851 seems to be about $325 or more on both Swappa and ebay, given that there are relatively few D851s for sale.

Now just this past week T-Mobile took the G3 off their website (they are still selling the G2 new at ~$350 or pre-owned at $230) so I would expect there to be a lot more D851s in good condition at better prices on ebay as TMO gets rid of their overstock once the G4 is available. Be interesting to see if it goes as low as $250 for a mint "refurb" in a few months.

I'm leaving the country on Sunday and I need to be able to use my phone with an international SIM. What is the quickest way to international unlock it by then? I see a lot of conflicting information like I can't downgrade from NG2 or something like that. Any help?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] imaxuout:
Hope This helps.

if you need any help; please pm me, or search this site for answers. I am sure you are not the first person, to want to do this or to have this question.

Before you continue; please note that i am not liable for any damages, that may occur to any the devices you attempt this on.

To undo any and all of the changes that you are about to make to your phone(**NOTE** the following will erase all data on your phone so backup everything you want to keep.), (1) first download an app called MSL utility and write down your MSL code on a computer, or any other device maybe even pen and paper.(2) go to your phone settings hit activate this device when it is done loading do not click done.(3) click on the menu button and go to PST settings. (4) go to the ##SCRTN# menu and follow what it prompts you to do, your phone will then reboot automatically. (5) do steps 2 and 3 over again and go to the ##RTN# menu and follow the prompts your phone should than reboot automatically and now you should see an invalid SIM sign. **NOTE** any time it asks you to enter a code it means enter you MSL code. Remember to undo these steps first. (No. 2)**NOTE** when your done with steps below download BuildProp Editor(you must have root), and click on the pencil icon; scroll to the bottom, and add these two lines: ril.sales_code=LOL ro.csc.sales_code=LOL)

No. 1) = No, you do not need to downgrade.

No. 2)**NOTE** when your done with steps below download BuildProp Editor(you must have root), and click on the pencil icon; scroll to the bottom, and add these two lines:

ril.sales_code=LOL

ro.csc.sales_code=LOL

save and reboot

with sim inside the apn should be set automatically. If not, well than google your apn, and add it manually.

done.

This is a re-post(i would thank whom ever posted this, though i do not recall where i found it.); because i am to lazy, to write it from scratch.

1. Use ssu.apk to unlock it first

2. use cf auto root to it

3 .use adb:

su

am broadcast -a android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE -d android_secret_code://27663368378

UMTS -> DEBUG SCREEN -> PHONE CONTROL -> NETWORK CONTROL -> GCF

There the phone is domestic unlock without downgrading the modem.

1. be on stock NG2. ssu.apk force-closes on aosp/custom roms.

2. Run ssu.apk and do the unlock. This does not require root.

3. do the other commands through ADB(step 3 Above), just in case. You may or may not need them. I don't know why it worked for me without them. That step DOES require root.

4. Test your sim card and make sure your phone can read it, and if possible, make a call, try text/data, whatever.

You're Welcome!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] aramic:
I had NAE i downgrade to mdc then unlocked it and after that i download firmware which is NG2-xas i think and after upgrading its still unlock.

For that method and files you can search international sim unlock.

Its easy to do it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] gmap516:
Thanks so much for the quick response!

Couple of things, I actually called Sprint to ask them to unlock it for international SIMs, and they said they'd go ahead and do it. I flashed back to Stock and did the UICC Unlock thing in the menu like they told me. The phone rebooted. I think it's unlocked then, correct? If not, I'll go ahead and do this method tonight.

Also, does this phone support LTE (Is that the right term) on international GSM networks or just 3g?

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] imaxuout:
it may be unlocked; you would not know for certain unless, you attempt to insert an international sim card.

Depending on which country you are traveling to. Some countries only have 2-G, then there is some that use 3-G, some also utilize HAPA+, and LTE. It also depends on the sim card they give to you. If the give an LTE sim card, it may work (for LTE or HSPA+). Though it depends on which band/frequency, its relying on. click here to see LTE frequency data sheet. click here to select the country you are traveling to, this way you'll know if you will be able to be on a favorable network.

There are people who have problem with gps.

The problem is the csc was changed.

There are roms where you can choose your own but sometimes it doesn't work. I don't know why but the full restoring process ( flash back the original rom with odin) not works every time. But if you change the csc with csc changer (playstore) the gps will works well.

This app works for me only with i9305 amcha kitkat but after this process you could flash the rom you want. Just leave the csc that you restored.

This app full wipes the rom so make a backup before do it.

There has been success with the Venue 8 7000 using this package:

It has four "trigger" options, and the one working for 5.0 is T4. You could give it a try, but it is possibly a risky thing to do while we don't have any system-recovery type files from Dell.

EDIT: If that works, you may also need the SuperSU installer zip on an external SD card.

Hey all!

Been a while since I posted, but I just got an LG Volt as a spare phone to use as a GPS/Speedometer/Music Player to mount on my motorcycle.

The one huge gripe I have is that the volume rocker controls the Alarm volume when I'm running Ulysses Speedometer Pro app for monitoring my speed on my street legal dirt bike. Even when I have music playing (installed some headphones inside my helmet, while the speedometer app is in the foreground the volume rocker controls the alarm volume instead of the media volume. I'm running a stock debloated ROM (android 4.4.2)which does have the expandable volume on-screen button, but when I'm riding my bike on the road and want to adjust the volume on the fly, it's really not safe and distracting for me to try to tap the button, then slide the slider up or down.

-I tried installing GravityBox with Xposed, and the "Force Media Volume Control" doesn't seem to work. I know I installed correctly because if I check the box for "Volume keys skip track", it works when I test it.

Is it just hit or miss with regards to all the features of gravitybox working? Does anyone know another workaround?

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference in your builds and dr87's builds?

dr87 builds with everything as close to stock Euphoria as he can. If you are a fan of his old Mahdi ROM builds, then you would really enjoy his builds. My builds use different toolchains, optimizations, and my kernel. Neither version is better than the other. I reccomend you give them both a whirl before settling down for one.

What kernels can I flash on this?

The ROM is using CAF sources, which means you cannot flash the CM12 versions of B14CKB1RD or Render's CM12 kernel. Current options are Llama kernel or stick with stock.

How do I flash this?

If you are coming from an older build:

Clean flash (/data, /system, /cache and dalvik, but NOT internal storage) -> Flash ROM -> Flash GApps -> Reboot

If this is the first time using any CAF based ROM (First time using Euphoria):

Clean flash (/data, /system, /cache and dalvik, but NOT internal storage) -> Flash LP bootstack -> Flash ROM -> Flash GApps -> Reboot!

GPS is working. Only thing that shouldn't be working is USB-OTG. And you can find my Google+ profile through my XDA profile, or just look at the G2 section of the Euphoria-OS G+ page.
