[Windows RT General] Xboxraider01:
Hello everyone I am new to xda and the surface rt and I have been wanting to install more app that what the app store offers. I have done jealbreaking/rooting before but am unsure of the surface jailbreak. Has anyone done it and has it worked. Also what are the pros and cons of the jailbreak.

Thanks.
[Windows RT General] TheExileFox:
Many have done it and the only downside is that the current jailbreak have to wait for the windows uptime to reach 2 minutes before it actually does anything.

The jailbreak lets you run non-Microsoft signed exe files in the desktop environment like those found here: Desktop Apps ported to Windows RT

7zip, Audacity, SciTE, OpenTTD is just a few listed there that we can use after running the jailbreak

Model number: SM-G130HN Android 4.4.2

Kernel version: 3.10.17-3510765

[XDA Assist] 816vm:
So my phone is bricked also cannot go to fastboot/flashmode mode and when i charge my phone it shows a red led then turns off then shows Sony XPERIA boot then turns off then led comes back on, then i take the usb cable out and try to turn it off it flashes red led 3 times (which says it can't turn on) my phone isn't rooted and i can't go to recovery mode.

Last time it was on USB Debugging was enabled but once flashtool said it has it disabled, and i have a firmware to flash on my phone but it doesn't work because the phone is not detected (also when plugged in my laptop i can't access storage a.k.a my laptop can't detect it.)

And when my phone WAS working when i pressed the recovery keys to go to recovery mode and it didn't work

Also i was searching for more than 1 or 2 weeks looking for something that would fix my phone.

And I tried to root my phone with the tutorial on THIS SITE and this is what happened.

So someone please help me.

-- Thanks for reading

Hi everyone!

Please post here your opinions / problems / enhances and all that you find useful to share about the new born Android on our beautiful machines
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Farrusko:
Does the lilipop arrived yet to the z tablet? Mine hás no update yet :/
[Xperia Tablet Z General] pafmdsilva:
It has just arrived to Portugal. I had the notification on mine like one hour ago but will only install it during the weekend.

You just will have to wait for your turn....
[Xperia Tablet Z General] geoz67:
I didn't wait and flashed the TW version. Pretty good in my opinion.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] pafmdsilva:
That update method is just too much trouble for me lol!

What differences did you feel? Faster? More battery life? Can you download stuff directly to your micro SD card now?
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Half Alive:
Settings force close when I open it in ultra stamina mode.

The battery decreases when using the tablet and charging it (Very Light usage minimum brightness)"Flashed the fw twice.

And It'll decrease Really fast that it will give me a warning about it for just using Tapatalk and Facebook.Didn't have this problem on CM.

For the performance I can't compare it to the previous build cuz I'm on CM for months. I can say it's OK but not smooth and buttery like CM.

Having latest Sony apps, Themes and the remote back is a nice thing. : )

I was very exited about the ultra stamina mode. But seriously without a mod to add some apps there's almost no point for activating it.

Auto-rotation toggle in portrate mode will be portrait-only then after a second switches to landscape. Weird thing.

There is no white balance anymore.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] pafmdsilva:
To me the most annoying thing in Kit Kat was the external SD card writing permitions. You couldn't download stuff directly to it, I hope lollipop allows that.i will install it soon and then post my opinion.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SickBeast:
Guys the Lollipop update is excellent. The new interface is really slick. The ART runtime really makes this tablet fly. Sony has breathed new life into our tablets, it's great. There is one click root with kingroot 4.1 as well. I installed the APK and it worked perfectly.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] pafmdsilva:
Could you be a litre more specific? Tell us how you feel about battery life, performance, any lag, I read some complaints about rotation mode, SD card permitions....
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SickBeast:
You expect me to tell you about battery life when I was only using it for a couple of hours? How about you get on your horse, install the update, and tell us yourself.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] pafmdsilva:
Just got lollipop a few hours ago.

The update was smooth and I didn't loose any data and all apps still here.

First impression is that lollipop is quite faster than kitkat.

I am enjoying enjoying the new interface. Nice and easy to use.

On the settings menu you will find a few new things like the ultra stamina mode and add guest accounts or add apps to micro SD card but you still can't use your torrent engine to download stuff directly into it...may in a future update.

About battery still can't say cause not enough use.

Overall I am happy with the update mainly because how faster it got.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] zift:
First impress on lollipop

Smooth upgrade, nothing lost except Clean master widget (expected) although flying broomstick is still floating on my scren :)

Now I can move apps to SD card. It has released pressure on memory, so tablet behaves much much better.

A bout battery I can not make opinion - too early to say.

In any case GOOD UPGRADE!

Has anybody tested storage encryption? Would like to encrypt, but am little afraid of slowdown (old CPU).

Decryption can be tricky - read about hanging in the middle of process, than only factory reset helps. Data gone... But it was different device...

If anybody has experience please report. Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] warriorking:
Been running 5.02 for a few days now, only issue thus far is my Volume dropped noticeably on my tablet..

Even at Max level its noticeably softer.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] francobarber:
move apps to SD - what about app data?

I tried out the move apps to SD card on the new lollipop 5.0.2 for the Tablet Z

(I have the 16Gig wifi).

It moved the app itself to SD, but what it doesn't seem to do is cause the app to put it's data on the SD card.

I have a specific app that downloads and caches an issue of a magazine, so it uses lots of data (900 MB last time I looked), and although some 15MB of app moved to the SD card, none of this data did.

I even tried deleting that month's issue and downloading a different month's issue to see if new downloads would go to SD: nope.

So, while I like the idea of being able to move the apps to SD card, so far it really hasn't proved to be much of a benefit to me because at least 3 GB of my internal storage seems to be taken by cached data (my magazine app, google books, etc) that doesn't seem to want to move to the SD card.

I'm continuously getting the warning notification to move stuff to the SD card to free up space, but I've got very little I can move (a few hundred MB) compared to the several GB of cached app data that won't move.

I'm really thinking I need to get the 32gb version next time around.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SickBeast:
You don't need the 32gb version, you need to know what you are doing. Root your tablet then install link2sd.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] turkilmaz:
I think you are right. I almost cannot hear YouTube videos. Damn, this is a pity! For the rest, the tablet works great so far!
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Rootk1t:
http://xdaforums.com/xperia-tablet-z/themes-apps/android-5-0-2-volume-boost-mod-t3133122

This function seems to be useless, as it copies only apk files to external SD. Cache and everything else is still on internal SD.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] transelite:
My tablet Z has been given a new lease of life. love lollipop update. It was OTA update as well .

its much smoother now and faster. No noticeable lag. Interface looks more modern now.

Dont hesitate guys and update.

Btw my tablet is stock , not rooted. Been holding out on rooting, glad they gave us lollipop.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
I dont mean to sound rude, really, but so what? you can download and transfer a ROM to your twrp recovery via regular file transfer, adb sideload, or adb push. so download what you need, choose a method, then transfer it to your phone. you dont have other options, besides for flashing a factory image.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brymaster5000:
Why did you install a custom recovery if you haven't unlocked your phone?

It seems to me you should start by downloading the appropriate factory image from Google. And flash everything (with the exception of boot loader) from inside your boot loader. Press and hold the power button while it's on, this will set a reboot. While the screen is black, press and hold power and volume down. This will get into boot loader.

Let us know if you need assistance on how to flash the factory images.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ducky10100:
I had my phone rooted and unlocked, but I reset everything and that's when it happened.

Hey dude if you can point me to where I can download one and a tutorial I will, but I've tried almost everything and nothing seems to work.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
first off, look at your recovery, you should be able to find a mtp and a adb sideload option. mtp would be the regular file transfer. you can google adb sideload twrp, and youll find instructions on that. or you can try googling adb push, and you will find instructions. thats the one i normally would use(but its been a long time), ive deleted my os before as well :angel:

reflashing stock via wugs nexus tool as bricked should help.

(this helped me, just read it didnt help you, did you try as bricked/softbricked? (sorry not sure what it is))
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Overkill. You can just put a ROM zip on the sdcard and flash it via TWRP recovery
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhystagram:
sdcard with no sdcard slot & support? lol... you cant put anything on the phone with no internal storage either...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
Internal storage is called sdcard. All you need to do is boot TWRP and connect to PC. You should see your internal storage on your PC then. Drag and drop your ROM from PC to internal storage. Flash ROM, profit.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
/sdcard is a common directory mounted at /data/media/0. TWRP has MTP access so like android, you plug it into the computer and drag files across. You don't need to remove it to do that.

...and indeed you are right, if you delete the "internal storage"/as s it shows up as in MTP mode, you would have to flash stock (though we'd recommend using fastboot not toolkits) however that is not the case here. The user said he deleted " everything" via TWRP. Although there is an option to "wipe" internal storage, this only wipes the /sdcard data - NOT deletes "internal storage" as someone can do on a computer. So yeah, the quickest and best way to recover from "deleted OS" is to put a ROM.zip on the sdcard and flash it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ducky10100:
Will someone please refer me to a download for Android 5.0. I've tried some, but all the sites are block by my internet provider.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
There is only one legitimate site for Google factory images, and it's linked below. I don't understand why any provider would block it...

And why do you want 5.0? That is the original, release version for the Nexus 6? What version are you on, today? If you are on 5.1 or higher, and you decide to downgrade, do not downgrade your bootloader, as it could brick your device.

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ducky10100:
I've only had my Nexus for around 3 weeks and I've not updated from 5.0 yet.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Doesn't matter. You've got NO OS now, so just flash the latest. If you're wanting to keep TWRP and dead set against flashing a ROM.zip from recovery as I've suggested, just flash the system and boot image from the factory images.

Can we get it done already? :p
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ducky10100:
Yeah I've already done it now.

Hi, i will get mine in 2 days and i was wondering how can i change the rom so i can have playstore etc. I read somewhere that all i need is to download the WW rom and put it in the phone root. Is this correct? Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idoit:
I was wondering if the so called NV 'memory' is actually stored on the file system as well. It is normally shortened as NV or NV-items.

I see there is /efs in the file system. So the question is, is NV stored somewhere in file system too?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azlun:
You can check with many imei or EFS or partitions backup tool developers, NV Items are stored in modemst1 and modemst2 partitions for MSM89xx. It is changed to mdm9kefs1 mdm9kefs2 and mdm9kefs3 for APQ80xx +MDM96xx based models. Sammy android userdata have very litmited items mapping with "efs", only BT and WiFi mac address are too far from hundreds of NV items for a normal android phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idoit:
Thank you [MENTION=5256159]Azlun[/MENTION].

So now a simple question: How come I can read and write on modemst1 and modemst2 partitions without having root access? (My phone is absolutely untouched).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azlun:
No,I think no way in generally in case you have a locked bootloader and unrooted.

Even,in some case, you are lucky to own a motorola phone, and know its SPC, then you can use PC tools such as QPST to read/write NV items by items after boot from bootloader BP tool mode. No other workaound as my knowlege since partition s are only accessable by root user.

I would like to know if anyone of you has already overclocked their beloved HTC Touch.

If yes, would you please post some screen captures of your Xcpuscalar configuration? (If I set it >220, my Touch reboot after a few seconds of use)

Which solution is the most reliable? XCPUScalar or OMAPClock?

Thanks a lot!

[Touch GSM General] thescum:
heya cyrilp,

would suggest you use batterystatus (link above), where you can easily set it to wakeup at the choice of speed.

if you're just using teh omapclock.exe then you'll have to insert wakeup @ speed in notifications.
[Touch GSM General] cyrilp:
Yes i juste did, it's perfect.

Is it dangerous overclocking the Touch?

And do you notice any major improvement?
[Touch GSM General] maxoueb:
Actually I've noticed that if I overclock my Touch > 247MHz (with BatteryStatus), I'll have some sort of "stripes" visible on the 3D Cube background.

Am I alone with this?

stripes

never encounter with stripes problem on 3D cube when overclocking

[Touch GSM General] enaime:
Hey Mike, nice to see you on xda instead of howard. Anyways, its the 1.05 ext. I used the 1.04 ext also. Didnt notice a difference really. I found good seetings for battery conservation and good settings for hard core use.

Battery conserve: 100/201/201 boost to 221

Hard use: 175/201/247 boost to 260 (sometimes it shuts down on boost, unpredictable)
[Touch GSM General] mikewchandler:
hmmm...I've tried those versions with no success. Oh well, with schaps settings, I get a slight improvement.

My touch enhanced was purchased from negri about 2 weeks ago, could it be a different build. Wait..........what rom are you using. Im using the original rom. Could that be it?
[Touch GSM General] mikewchandler:
I've tried it with both the original rom and the shadow 2.1 TE. Glad it's working for you. I just did a clean hard reset, so I'm not wanting to try it again just yet but likely will before my next flash/hard reset. Thanks
[Touch GSM General] siddharta42:
With the stock ROM (Dutch, don't know the version) overclocking went fine up to 247 MHz, after that it would lock up. Now using Shadow 2.1 CE and running 286 with boost to 299 without a problem. Woohoo. :D
[Touch GSM General] tomygunner:
damn my mobile is always rebooting when i start xcpuscaler

i think its not good for my elf. but battery status is working well on 284mhz

After a failed attempt a couple months back. I've gotten it to run stable on

Holy sh*tcrap! Was overclocked to 273 for few months now, came here, saw that people had success with 299 and so on. Tried it few mins ago, phone froze......restarted it and it hard reset the thing! dang! :|

mda touch 128/256 working great with BatteryStatus. Only when cpuscaling example 100 201 237 a have lags (delay) with otgoing calls. ONLY with sonyericsson. (Not my Phone have lags the another phone) somebody have this problem ?

Maybe why is downclocked ? I tried with 137 201 201 and other combination

always same.

I have OC mine to 299Mhz. Its like that all the time, except when it goes to sleep, then it goes back to 201 to save battery life. comes back to 299 when I press the power button. no problems so far, and works like a charm.

tried 312, but phone hangs, and on one occasion phone hard reset itself. 299 works perfect.

using battery status.
[Touch GSM General] PaNa-S:
I set the clock to 299 too, no problems so far.. :P
[Touch GSM General] evilmonkey1987:
You guys are lucky. If o/c my elfin even a little (to 224 or 230), it freezes, resets, and does all kinds of nasty things. I can't get mine above the stock 201.
[Touch GSM General] Vector-SS:
Yeah a lot of the elfins (128/256) or rogers like yours don't like being overclocked a lot if any at all. My phone hangs at 247 - stable at 234. Though others have clocked beyond 247 on their rogers Touch.
[Touch GSM General] Slayer23:
286 MHz stable here, consumption around 550Mw when performing minor tasks

335 MHz freezes after 1-2 minutes of watching video, browsing net, sometimes it evens ends up, that i have to do a HR, but so far i can set CPUScalar to min 201, max 286 and boost 335 - that works fantastically, but the battery consuption is like 40% bigger
[Touch GSM General] thejoker01:
I can run my Rogers Elfin stable at 247mhz. When I tried 260mhz it reset on me right away so I don't think I'll ever try that again lol.
[Touch GSM General] Vector-SS:
Funny thing is my chip seems to have become "purer" after I had to a hard reset today. I've been running many programs and many tasks at the same time at 260mhz with no problems at all as of today.

I had done a hard reset a month back and I still couldn't run past 234mhz. But after my second hard restart which happened today, I'm stable at 260mhz. Kind of weird but I can't complain.

UPDATE:

So somehow my phone ran stable at 299mhz now!! It reboot at 312mhz though. Any explanation to that? I'm not complaining but I'm curious to know as to why I can overclock much more than before after the 2nd hard reset?
[Touch GSM General] alfabob:
I don't know if anyone else has seen this.

I've tried overclocking using BattStatus and am able to get to 231MHz with no stability issues, and burst settings set to a max of 247MHz.

However after awhile at these settings, I notice that my EDGE connection doesnt work and whats funnier is that I can no longer see the overclocking tab in Battstatus. I need to do a soft reset before I'm able to see the missing tab.

Has anyone else experience this?
[Touch GSM General] thejoker01:
That's interesting...you sure you haven't been in a cooler environment or something?
[Touch GSM General] Vector-SS:
Actually I'm in a much much warmer environment. Summer just showed up 2 weeks ago! Only different thing I did was install batterystatus on my memory card as opposed to on my phone. I recently got my memory stick.
