Similar Problem

My Note 4 has locked up three times after a full charge.. I noticed a solid RED LED after the phone fully charged and attempts to turn it on are unsuccessful, it's frozen. Nothing I do can wake it up short of removing and replacing the battery. The Lollypop update was done over a month ago so I doubt that is the cause. I'm still checking things out but it has occurred to me that if this happens to the S6, what would one do if you can't remove the battery?????

Hi All,

We have a client who we supplied 2 TyTns the both have the same ROM:

ROM Version: 1.18.255.3

ROM date: 07/22/06

Radio version: 1.03.03.10

Protocol version 32.34.7010.01H

ExtROM version 1.18.255.106

One of them connects to Wi Fi no problem. The other says the network is available but when you go to connect the network key code is invalid. The key is identical on both devices.

Any Ideas? (apart from a hammer)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stevieboy:
possibly both devices are using the same device name,try changingboth names to something different
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Yes, or go to connections, network cards and delete the one in question and then have it re-detect the network and re-enter the key from scratch. i.e delete the card first not just re-enter the key in settings.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bazsound:
My 2nd post with this accound but ive been a member for qutie a while but was inactive for a few years and cant recover my account.

Anyhow i bought a Timmy E86 . Its pretty cheap but pretty good apart from the GPS

It has the mediatek 6582 chip.

Ive been through just about every mediatek gps fix.

EPO Downloads

AGPS servers

MTK Engineering mode

FasterGps

er

When i got the phone GPS signal was non existant. even after using many different gps fix apps.

I then discoverd that without the cover on and the antenna peeled back i managed to get signal, put cover back on and signal goes. So the cover is blocking signal.

I extended the antenna with a make shift foil antenna, which improved the signal slightly and allowed signal with the cover on. Great thinking its fixed, however navigation was terrible, loosing signal and the heading facing wrong way.

Then it lost all signal again after a restart and woukldnt get signal again randomly until smoe while later. Satilites show but zero signal.

The antenna is rubbish on this phone,

I know this is probably the main source of the problem, i plan on remove the case cleaning the contacts and installing a better antenna, either made of copper tape or perhaps something else.

But im pretty sure theres something else wrong deeper down in the software.

I done some further testing yesterday managed to get gps signal and 3d fix. Since i was being a passanger rather than driver i could see what was gong on. as soon as we started moving the satilite signals would drop to 0.....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bazsound:
ni thoughts?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bazsound:
Finally tracked the issue down to really poor GPS antenna.

Remoived it, replaced it with bare copper wire from a power cord , made sure it was well twisted so all the strands were together and neat.

Used the end of the GPS antanna that contacted the board and soldered it to the the pad of the old gps antanne end, so that when the case went back in it contacted the board pin.

Success. GPS lock indoors at a window and still picking up satilites away from window but not enough for lock.

Until i screwed everything back together and tried to put the back on, the cable was too thick and it pushed the board. GPS signal no longer works.

Even tried replacing with thinner cable and solering direct to board but same result. satalites in view but no signal, not even outside now.

Guess ive either burned out the gps somewhere or something on the board got damaged from the cable pushing on it. Even removed the SMD contact pin and soldered wire directly onto the board. Still nothing
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bazsound:
Given up on getting this to work. either ive broken something in the gps or the phones setup has went iffy.

Satilites are apparently in view but dont ever get a signal from any, all 12 satalites sit there with zero signal even outdoors.

The easy solution?

Use my old phone that can get a lock inside next to a window as a bluetooth GPS reciever. Using Bluetooth GPS output, and then the bluetooth GPS app on my timmy phone.

Result? Perfect navigation using Tom Tom GO. This is actually a much better solution since the phones GPS is off its using much less power. My old phone is an alcatel one touch which is pretty good for battery even with gps on plus with the screen off doesnt need charged while using it for hours as gps+bluetooth.

Another advantage, i can have a gps app open on old phone for speed and have a GPS speedometer running while navagation running on my larger timmy e86.

My recomendation is just get a bluetooth GPS reciever if your gps sucks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naumanikram:
Hi! My S4 I9505 is having following issue:

My phone had Android 4.3 but had wifi issue (reboots phone once I connect to wifi)

So I decided to install Omega V41 Custom ROM Lollipop

I installed it successfully and solved my wifi issue.

Now after about a week my phone suddenly restarted.... I ignored....

After five minutes it again restarted and this time it stuck at samsung logo...

I went to custom recovery (TWRP) which Installed when I was installing Omega V41

I tried to restore to factory defaults, but I realized no function of Custom recovery is working and every function is giving error.

I was in remote city and I had no laptop so I decided it to give at shop for fresh firmware installation (as I considered it as a software bug)

Shopkeeper returned me my phone after two hours and said that its boot is corrupted and I don't boot repair files.

Now I checked that as shopkeeper tried to install official firmware so I am unable to go to custom recovery and I can only go to download mode.

After a week coming back to home I tried to install firmware myself but for every thing I tired to flash (Custom recovery, bootloader, firmware) odin failed. I tries different computers, usb port, usb cable, odin versions but every time odin failed.

I reasearched on internet and found that my pit mapping has issue, so I downloaded pit file of i9505 (one given in tutorial) and flashed 4.2.2 with pit file but again no luck and odin failed saying that "repartition operation failed"

Finally I went to big firmware shop in my city and after trying 3 hours they said that you eMMC is corrupt, and it will be replaced on your motherboard for around $80.

Please help me if I can repair corrupt eMMC via any software? eMMC is available for $20 at aliexpress.. Is it worth buying..? and giving $10 to any repair shop for replacing the chip on motherboard.

I still can go to download mode of my phone. If there is any other software related solution please let me know. I am worried as I used this phone just for 2 weeks. :-/

Thanks for your help guys...

Just a few backports for stock 4.4.4.

Bacports from:

- kernel-copyleft-14.5.A.0.xxx

- kernel_sony_msm8974

- android_kernel_sonyz_msm8974

Features (i remember)

* memutils

* kgsl (kernel-copyleft-14.5.A.0.xxx)

* Kexec hardboot (needs testing!)

Sources:

https://github.com/threader/kernel-copyleft-14.4.A.0.xxx-backports

Requires unloced bootloader naturally, would be thankfull if someone could test it with multirom.

I have some questions to other developers, im having a hard time with Multirom, i simply cannot get the recovery partition booting so i can inject multirom, must i relock my bootloader or something?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] D_Vovan_238:
Try it ;)

For multirom working you need unlocked bootloader.

Try to inject multirom directly in your boot.img, there is option in MultiRom TWRP to inject multirom directly to boot.img, and then try to flash kernel with preinjected Multirom ;)

It must work .

Or simply try Trinity Ultimate MultiBoot Kernel, I'm using it, but little bit edited by me, and it's working perfectly :D

---------- Post added at 04:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 PM ----------

I suggest you to port MultiRom TWRP from this kernel, because it work better than others.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] threader:
Hi ,

Thanks, and nice work on criskelo-multirom. i'll investigate this weekend, still a few things from kernel-copyleft-14.5.A.0.xxx that might be doable.

I could edit the ramdisk directly.

Observed some differences in the the base offset, is it such that one or the other is compatible with multiboot?

mkbootimg --kernel zImage --ramdisk initramfs.cpio.gz --base 0x1dfff00 --cmdline 'androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31 msm_rtb.filter=0x37 ehci-hcd.park=3 msm_rtb.enable=0 lpj=192598 dwc3.maximum_speed=high dwc3_msm.prop_chg_detect=Y' --board 'mrom20150201-00' -o new_boot.img

and i use

mkbootimg --cmdline "androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31 maxcpus=2 msm_rtb.filter=0x37 ehci-hcd.park=3 lpj=192598 dwc3.maximum_speed=high dwc3_msm.prop_chg_detect=Y vmalloc=400M" --base 0x00000000 --kernel xperia-c6903-z1-source-final-4.4.4-0/arch/arm/boot/zImage --ramdisk boot-xperia-c6903-z1-sony-kernel-0/157/kernel_S1-SW-LIVE-6732-PID1-0005-MMC.elf.ramdisk --ramdisk_offset 0x02000000 -o boot.img --dt dt-0.img --tags_offset 0x01E00000

---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 PM ----------

Trinity Ultimate MultiBoot Kernel use *.cpio compressed z-images for dual recovery and Ramdisk booting.

So I changed CWM Recovery Ramdisk to Philz recovery, I like it more and it have more options and functions.

I ported Philz recovery from [NUT] Kernel.

So all kernels from aroma installer contains same recoveries.

Only MultiBoot Kernel contains Multirom TWRP.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] threader:
I can confirm it works well with XZDualRecovery by [NUT] http://nut.xperia-files.com/ , also discovered why multirom by Garcia98 - http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z1/orig-development/mod-multirom-v30x-t3006363 - install failed, added did it manually, simply used the installer for XZDualRecovery .

Looking into making a multirom 14.5.A.0.XXX - .270 zip, thats possible, no?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] D_Vovan_238:
:)

Now I almost always use stock based Rom, but I was looking inside Original Multirom Installer, and like I understand its made for CM Based roms. That's why offline charging screen looks bad. I was trying to fix it, but f(x)THaxxorX made it first, so I used his Perfect Work.

And the MultiRom will work good for any combination of roms, because it only changes partition mounts, so for secondary roms System, Data and Cache are mounted on the same partition mmcblk0p25 (DATA), or other if the rom is installed on SD Card1, I partitioned my Memory card with 3 partitions mmcblk1p1 FAT32(VFAT), mmcblk1p2 Linux Swap(I'm using 1,4 Gb for Swap Ram memory) and mmcblk1p3 EXT4 for secondary roms, all was working good apart the boot and loading speed, because my Class 10 Memory Card is not so fast like Xperia Z1 internal memory :(

It depends only from the rom and installer stability .
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] threader:
Agreed, especially in this case where there is DRM involved i dont see it as particularly practical reinventing the entire rom, i'll try my hand on a codeurora in time, when im done with the kernels, but i've figured sony has done a very good job here with both the kernel and rom, only thing i would like to maintain is ssl and such.

Read the same thing regarding multirom built against CM, and the problems they had with the CM team not merging the code making development for multirom easy.

Mostly understood multirom now, though i think 5.x changed the partition layout somewhat? I havent had time to put it all together yet, been trying to get a framebuffered console up on 14.4.a.xxx, its just not there, at all... will be trying this https://github.com/xperia-aosp-proj...UX_ANDROID_LA.BF64.1.2.1_RB1.05.00.02.019.067 - though i've read, heard and gathered that a mainline kernel will run on the thing! All thats needed is porting the panel driver to get started.

I've also got a class 10 sdcard, thought these would be as fast or comparable to the internal sd... I just split mine in two, one fat32 and one ext4 with kali. So that'll be my fist target i guess, i just really need a fbconsole

btw, http://www.techworm.net/2015/06/and...announced-for-select-sony-xperia-devices.html

Edit:

Oooofh... Well, the 3.10.49 kernel on https://github.com/xperia-aosp-proj...UX_ANDROID_LA.BF64.1.2.1_RB1.05.00.02.019.067 seems quite broken for Z1, yet it's used here ... http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z1/orig-development/wip-aosp-5-0-alpha-v0-1-lollipop-xperia-t2930638

Edit:

Aah , maybe the official and maintained one will work better. https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel

Update:

Indeed it did compile, adding genlock.c and .h, but crashes somewhere, and did not even have the option for a framebuffered console.. Guess i could try adding a ram console and try debugging that way, though its hideously tedious and upside down way of doing things...

Working on the issue some more it seems that first boot was a oneshot.. It simply doesnt find the DTB, even though i tried zimage-dtb and a dt.img

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 0.360s]

booting...

Although directed at ggow I can provide a quick response with 99% confidence ....

No, any system backups created in Safestrap 3.x will not be usable in 4.x. The roms supported in SS v3 are Jelly Bean based. SS v4 has KitKat roots has only be tested with Nexus v4 and FireOS v4. You might be able to restore a data partition (depends on the contents) but not a system partition. I'm sure ggow will elaborate further.

Ha, ha ... you are not the only one waiting for the first custom ROMs for this device.

Best place to ask is the Mi 4i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum ... or the Mi 4i General forum.

Maybe you need to open a kind of "Request" thread. If there are enough users requesting CM ROM development (maybe along with a bounty or potential of donations for the dev), then you will get it sooner ;)

Or try to port CM yourself to the Mi 4i :fingers-crossed:

It's in this line here - "with the way the card is made and formatted it may hold varying storage from card to card. Errors may be experienced once the maximum capacity of the memory card has been reached."

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] ggow:
- Not at the moment and probably not likely.

- If amazon release a FireOS based on lollipop and we get root then yes maybe.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] DB126:
Although I prefer AOSP/Nexus the next logical question would be CM11 as it shares common roots with FireOS v4 / Nexus v4 and at present does not require an unlocked bootloader. Actually, not sure why anyone would opt for CM11 over Nexus on HDX given the status of the two roms. Don't get me wrong - CM is great and has some nice built in functionality (all of which is obtainiable via Xposed on Nexus) but the CM11/CM12 implementations still have a few issues with the HDX variants.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Android Development] lekofraggle:
I agree. Don't get me wrong, I love cm, but If you want a stable Rom, Nexus is where it's at.
