I am telling you the process of flashing kernel img first here, with help of attached images also,just switch off your phone and connect with your pc or laptop while holding volume+key on phone, now you will see blue light flash on your phone led indicator, means you are now connected in fastboot mode after that just open your fash tool and click on thunder ⚡ button and select fastboot Mode and then in next dialog box click on Select kernel to flash, and then select the right kernel img from your pc to flash on your device D2212,done,now you can go to next step to flash rom,:D
[Sony Xperia E3] DXrep:
Using FlashTool

1. Clicking on the blue thunder thing.

2. Selcting flashmode.

3. Selecting the ROM to flash.

4. Clicking on Flash button.

5. Getting phone to flashmode (volume down button while inserting usb)

6. Removing the usb cable & Turning on the phone.

7. Getting stuck on boot screen (Sony logo)

The FlashTool log that I sent in earlier post. I assume it was FlashTool successfully flashed the ROM right? or was it a failure?

[Sony Xperia E3] DXrep:
Something to do with security flag on (S-ON)?

How do I turn it off if there is such thing?

"The bootloader checks to see if the security flag is on (S - ON). If it is on, then the bootloader

will load only signed (official) kernels. If the security flag is off (S-OFF), then the

bootloader no longer checks for signatures. Setting S-OFF also releases other security lock

downs, making the entire file system writable and enabling other goodies, such as allowing

you to install a custom recovery process on the device." -read it from xda-developers guide pdf file I downloaded.
[Sony Xperia E3] vinay:
S - ON/OFF in not on sony xperia devices but you should watch a tutorial on flashing or read a guide i think you were flashing ftf while excluding everything that have to be flashed actual flashing takes 20-30 minutes..

you should gave a try to sony,s official flash tool too.
[Sony Xperia E3] DXrep:
Will do.
[Sony Xperia E3] DXrep:
Thanks to you dude I finally was able to properly flash the custom ROM. :D

The problem was that the version of the FlashTool was 0.9.8.*SOMETHING* It didn't have the fsc script (FlashTool script) which had D2212 support (Something like that :))

In simple word FlashTool wasn't able to recognise the device so it didn't flash.

Took me about 10 minutes to flash the stock ROM with the latest version of FlashTool (0.9.19.5) and everything's perfectly fine now.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thayis:
I've been battling this issue for a few hours now being my resourceful self scavenging the web for information and ideas to try. However I am reaching a roadblock on this issue so I'm hoping somebody here is able to help me out.

My friend dropped off a tablet for me to look at today. He said that it did something during an update and wouldn't work normal again afterwards. The tablet boots up normally but is missing lots of basic functionality (Keyboard, settings crashes on some tasks, cant add a google account, play store..ect) The tablet was rooted but doesn't seem to get root privileges now. Strange thing when i hold the volume down it comes up into "factory Mode" I don't believe this is what is suppose to happen because all the videos i watch goes into fastboot/recovery mode.

To save you some time...Things that i have tried:

-Reset to factory Settings

-Clear eMMC via Factory Mode

-Tried a few programs(nexus toolkit,Skipsoft Toolkit) I could do any ADB tasks but anything that it needs to boot to fastboot for it fails, which really limits what i can do with these tools.

-Installed Google Keyboard via ADB command on PC Win7/8, Installed Terminal trying to disable Factory Mode and Enable User Mode however unable to do this without Root Privileges.

One last thing i have yet to try waiting until the 28th to get my hands on another identical tablet. Was going to try to make an android backup file and then restore it with the non-working tablet. Not sure if this would do anything but figured it might be worth a shot.

Sorry for the long post but wanted to explain the situation correctly. I will post pictures with the detail on the tablet. This is my first post on here so hopefully my explanations are clear enough!

Comparing a company to a mobile phone (without a model number) makes it hard to find the criteria of "better", so I choose my own.

My criteria is the number of times the letter "s" is in the company name, so Samsung clearly owns apple. Why did you ask, that was an easy question you could have solved on your own!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] iBowToAndroid:
I would probably recommend removing all references to rooting since it's not necessary. Some may only want to unlock, not root.

Substitute the dialer code for the terminal command when it comes to launching the service menu.

And putting the apk on the phone's storage and installing it with a file explorer is probably easier than adb install, for most people.

I'm going to try this today and will report back. I switched to tmobile and got the s6 edge and since my sprint contract was up I was able to keep my device. Now I want to get it to my mom who has a beat down metro pcs device. In theory since metro is tmobile it should work right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] chris41g:
If metropcs uses sim cards, and the Bands that the GS4 has, then yes it should work. You'll obviously need APN settings for data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robogoflow:
So this method you need to be on KitKat in order for Suu to work. I also can't get a hold of galaxytools as the developer wants you to buy it now.

Also any ideas how to do the domestic unlock without adb?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] chris41g:
I don't use galaxy tools, and if you aren't on kit Kat yet, you can revert the modem and use the original unlock posted by autoprime.. Or you could just flash the rom I linked too, which is lollipop, not the newest but works fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] chris41g:
And as far as adb, you can just use a terminal app.. Except for installing ssu.apk, but you could just push that to your phone and install it with a file manager
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robogoflow:
I followed the above steps and still can't get it to work. Im back on kitkat and unlocked the sim. Did the terminal command and followed those steps. rebooted and under About Phone> Status it still says sprint and shows my old phone number that was tied to my sprint account. Am i missing something? I went to settings and changed to gsm/utms and tried that but nothing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] chris41g:
Did you put a sim card in?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robogoflow:
Yes it was a metro pcs sim. I spent a couple hours tinkering with different steps from older threads and still could not figure it out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] iBowToAndroid:
Metro is unique in that you can't switch phones just by popping a SIM in.

You have to contact them and have them register the new IMEI to the phone number

How are Data speeds?

This is great thank you for posting this detailed one. If i can't figure out how to get my phone working right I'll flash stock firmware and start OP's process. Can you tell me what data speeds are you getting? I've got mine unlocked and working by changing my modem and using s4 flasher among changing other settings. It's a Sprint S4 L720 going to Tmobile. I'm only getting Edge speeds of .08 mbps and the voice is sometimes garbled. I'm not sure how I can get it unlocked and working well with everything working and getting the HSPA+ speeds. I live in a 4gLTE area so I should get at least 3g speed according to tmobile's coverage map using 72703 zip code. Trying to figure this out if anyone has suggestions on how to get out of EDGE speeds, the 2G EDGE capabilities are appalling. I haven't flashed any custom ROMS btw.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] iBowToAndroid:
1. Make sure modem version matches software version

2. Make sure network mode is set to WCMDA preferred or GSM/UMTS.

3. Check Settings->About phone->Network to make sure you're actually on EDGE.

You could live in an area that T-Mo hasn't refarmed to 1900 yet. If that's the case, they're running HSPA on 1700 there, and the phone doesn't have that frequency. So that would explain only being able to get EDGE

This is for people who dont want to root their phone just for one reason i.e to bypass the apps through proxy network

then go on, continue reading.

i m not a developer of this app, i just wanted to share this because there are so many search results on internet for NON ROOT USER!!!

yes thats right. i got a new phone, few days back. and thought that i wont root this one.

so i was having a second thought of rooting this new phone, just for one reason... to bypass all my apps

in my phone through proxy.

just when i was reading about how to root Xiaomi. i came across an app

which lets you bypass all the apps in the phone with no requirement of rooting the phone.

Yes you heard it right NO ROOT!!

so the app i downloaded is 'PSIPHON' .... its free and user friendly.

here is the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.psiphon3

this app is better than sandroproxy or droid or autoproxy (no offence to the developers of this apps). this apps looses the connection when you dont use the application

and then the application like whatsapp or FB messenger wont detect proxy for sometime and its very annoying.

but psiphon app keeps the connection alive regardless of closing the social media apps and starting it after 10-30 min or so.

give it a try and let me know.

press Thanks button.
