My Sony Xperia Z3 screen is not working anymore after used it underwater. It is pitch black and the water damage indicator is pink from white, it means that the phone is broken because of water damage but the phone is still working, whenever message me or pm me from fb messenger, the phone is responding. Also when I press the shutter button, it will vibrate and you will hear the sound of the camera app.

How can I access the files on my pc or how can I reformat the phone, the screen lock is on and I can't unlock it?

Is there anyway to clean front camera as there is too much dust in it :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ljfehuewjemg:
Yes. I did it yesterday and was surprised about how easy the phone is to disassemble.

On the back remove upper plastic (covering sim and sd card). Remove lower plastic in the same way (a bit harder to do). Remove 2 screws holding big back metal plate. Slide metal plate downwards and remove (be careful about switches on side). Unscrew 5 screws on top cover frame and remove frame.

Then you might already be able to pull the front camera out to the back and clean the cam and the glass. It will be way easier though if your unplug all the connectors and remove one more screw and the main board (pull left side towards you) as the cam will come of together with that one alyways.

It all goes pretty easy if you are careful with it. I recommend watching a youtube video. Search for "Démontage et remontage du Wiko Darkmoon".

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoBricksPlease:
First off, if this post is more appropriate for another forum, I would appreciate being pointed to where it would be a better fit. I considered the developer forums but I wasn't sure which one would be best. That said...

I am trying to do data recovery on a Samsung Galaxy S5 that was accidentally factory wiped.

After extracting the image with dd shortly after the incident, I have had no luck in examining the image after several extensive attempts using a wide variety of tools. In truth, judging by the image, it seems that the vast majority of the drive is zeroed out.

However, a number of research projects have shown that Android phones tend not to be securely reformatted up through Android 4.x, and although this has improved over the last several Android versions (beginning with 4.3, if I recall correctly), it seems that it often boils down to correctly implementing the driver for the flash memory chip.

As such, I would like to know if anyone knows how reliable the kernel driver for Android 4.4.4 is in terms of secure deletion for the Galaxy S5 memory chip (KLMAG2GEAC). I've looked through the stock recovery source code, and it looks like it does everything expected of it down to an ioctl(), but after digging through the kernel, I've come to the drivers for MMC and can't make heads or tails of how well they function from just the source code alone (I'm also not a driver programmer, which doesn't help). This is especially so for the Samsung-specific code, since those files seem to be particularly poorly documented.

Does anyone have experience with the secure delete/TRIM functions of this chip, or data recovery when it does not seem to be possible from a direct dd-derived disk image? I'm pretty much out of ideas at this point, and although I want the data back, if it's impossible I'd rather know now so I can start using my phone again.

Thank you very much for any help.

Hi all ,

As you guys are aware of the last POst on

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=315745

Now am facing a new issue ...

Even yesterday my phone was charged with more than 90% of Batt..

the phone did showed the GREEN SIGNAL LED but with the screen off..(power saving mode enabled to save batt)

but when i pressed the power button the PROPHET refused to wake up-

I had to reset,but than the same problem as earlier i had posted in thread..

The prophet dint power on at all!!!after removing batt and installing after some 10Min no solution...

Finally as earlier the prophet wokeup all by itself...:confused:

But to my surprise the batt was around only 80%

Also one weared thing is that the brightness will go to zero as i connect to USB or charger!!

My question :

Why this happens (have just hard reset my phone a couple of days back)

Why the batt drained by around 12% that too in a matter of just 20minutes when the prophet was not ON at all...:eek:

Note:have installed the BatteryStatus-Plugin the CPU is not overclocked by me its at 195Mhz...

sorry to start a new thread as i thought this can help others also..:)

Thanks :D

I need your help guys. Been on here for years, rooted every phone I have ever owned (multiple carriers). Self taught through trial and error and reading threads on here. But I have now ran into an issue that I have never seen or heard of and cant seem to find something on here to help. A friend of mine has Verizon Galaxy S5 and recently had to replace it through the insurance plan he had on it from Verizon. He had been complaining for a while and has finally agreed to let me take a look and see if I can fix it. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING!!! (that I can think of). This is extremely frustrating. Below ill list the issues and things Ive tried.

Issues:

Operating system crashes

Rebooting on its own

Wont load up when turned on

Apps crashing

Battery wont last long

and general "Jankyness" haha (seriously though)

These issues are constant issues meaning all happen constantly throughout the day and night.

I have tried multiple factory resets through the settings and through stock recovery

Just tried using Odin to fix this aaaannndddd NNOOO GO!!! 8-O

i have used Odin many times, never seen it not work like this. If anyone has an explanation for this and a recommended solution that would be great!! Thanks all for reading this and hopefully I can help my friend.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ZipAddict:
First off, after the factory reset and everything worked did you reinstall the pdanet?

Second, 20,000mah battery? Holy cow im jealous!

Forgive me if you have already tried these things but this is what i would do...

Did you reenable developer options and reenable adb debugging?

Did you uninstall and reinstall your phone drivers?

Is there an updated phone driver?

Have you tried a different usb cord?

Is there excess dirt or dust in usb charge port on your phone?

Does your usb charge port even work anymore or do you just charge external battery on wall?

Have you tried a different usb port on the computer?

Have you tried on another computer?

Have you tried updating computer drivers?

Have you enabled a fast charge tweak like on a kernel tweak app?

If none of these questions fix it then a workaround is downloading app called airdroid. You can wirelessly transfer files from phone to computer and back again without usb cord.

Let me know what worked please! Good luck!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] VasVadum:
1. No, I never touched PDA net again.

2. Too bad forum rules say I can't be friendly and give you the link to it.

3. Read the topic you quoted. I did, only after my phone broke again. Except it's not adb debugging, it's USB debugging. Doesn't work, because the phone can't communicate with a computer anymore.

4. 5. 11. Yes I reinstalled drivers and no there were no updates.

6. 7. Nothing's wrong with the cable. I did try with others.

8. What does that even mean? Yes my phone's port works. Nothing's wrong with any hardware.

9. 10. I've tried different ports and different computers.

12. Can't, phone isn't rooted.

13. I'm not using this. My phone is not there for Google/Android to tell me I'm not allowed to use my USB port ever again. I'm also not going to wait 4 hours for a 4 GB file to transfer via my router to my computer nor am I installing some app software to my computer just to have wireless transfer. This is not a work around. This is an "Oh well, it's broken, guess you can't ever use USB ports again for data access!"

note; I tried all of these (except 12/13) before I ever came here looking for help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ZipAddict:
2. I will google it

3. I didnt realize toggle to turn on usb debugging didnt work sorry. I just know it needs to be on for the computer to see the phone. This seems to be an area of problem possibly.

8. Lol! What i meant was did the area where u insert charger function properly. Only reason i asked is because some of those batteries charge on wall unit made specifically to charge the battery only not with charge.

12. Doesnt require root for basic settings like changing governor usually. Only to overclock/undervolt, etc.

13. Great answer! But i meant as a temporary fix until someone more experienced with this issue helps you.

I also figured listing all those things would help other people see what you had and hadnt tried before asking you next time. Wish i couldve helped more. Good luck
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] VasVadum:
2. amazon dot com /External-20000mAh-Limefuel-LP200X-Flashlight/dp/B00OHZVN5U/ - It let me charge my phone 7-8 times fully before it was empty. Automatically stops when your phone is full.

3. USB debugging doesn't need to be on in order for a phone to communicate with a computer. This is only if you want to debug apps or use other developer tools. File transfer works just fine without it.

8. I still don't understand what you mean. My phone is not broken in any way. Nor is my battery. My external battery charges off any USB input, my phone charges off any USB input. My phone just can't communicate data wise between devices anymore via USB.

12. Fast charge isn't going to fix my phone. Unless it disables data communication, then I need to turn it off. All "kernal tweak apps" appear to require root. The top 5 google searches shown this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ZipAddict:
3. Wasnt sure. Ive always had it on

8. Some aftermarket batteries dont charge while in phone hooked up to charger. They come out of phone and into specialized charger for battery only not phone with it, so that it can charge the larger battery in a matter ofan hour or so is what i have been trying to say. But its obvious thats not the case for you now since i asked and clarified. If this was the case one might not know that the small usb port on their phone needed cleaning to make a good connection because they literally dont use it to charge their phone. They charge their phone with external battery charger. You see?

12. On my custom rom and on my trickstermod app it does say fast charge disables data communication and that you have to turn it off for computer to recognize phone again. This fast charge mode only works when connected to computer not wall charger it says

Wish i could be more help but im out of ideas. Good luck
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] VasVadum:
Update to the current situation.

My phone is somehow, repaired. But I have no clue why. I did several things today, just screwing around while I backed up my stuff to the SD card. One of them could have fixed it, or my phone is magic and self repairs after a while. Lets list everything I can remember that I did.

1. I typed in *#9900# in my dialing app. Toggled an option called "Low battery dump" to "on".

2. I deleted a whole bunch of files, including hidden files on the internal storage. Probably screwed up my apps but, whatever, it works now.

3. I pulled the SD card out.

Shortly after all these things, I plugged it in for power, and it finally, got my computer to see it as an MTP device again. No clue which of these succeeded. I'm going to wait a small bit before I test the things that tend to break it.

The magic option, is because I tried to root, it broke, stuck in download mode with some error about firmware. For 4 hours it was stuck like this, I tried everything I could think of, which wasn't much, tried installing the ROM back too, after wasting 2 gigs of bandwidth downloading it only to get an error before it even started the install. Phone was still rebooting in download mode error screen. Left it sit there off for like a minute and it just turns it's self back on, flickers a few times and the logo pops up and the device pops on like nothing had ever happened to it. I'm so confused. :/ At least everything's back to normal. Now add a good confusion post icon below so I can click it and post. :|
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ZipAddict:
this was your problem remember? fast charge does disable data communication.

glad whatever you did fixed it lol. have a good day
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] VasVadum:
Except, I don't have a fast charge option anywhere. I can't toggle fast charge. My phone is unrooted and locked and such. If plugging in a device like a battery or a car charger, toggles this option and the OS developers deleted access to toggle this option, it is an OS bug and a critical issue in the device that needs to be fixed. I don't know what fixed it, but I'm assuming it was the low battery dump, and that doesn't appear to have anything to do with fast charge and it was a hidden secret option in the system.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ZipAddict:
The way u said it i misunderstood i thought u did have it on. Its not an option on all roms though. Mine has it and i tried it and couldnt see files thru usb until i toggled it off so it was just an idea. I dont know the effects of the low battery dump off top of my head but i will remember that if i hear someone else with same problem. Glad its fixed now

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myotai:
Hi all,

Putting it briefly....

Factory reset of hdx 7" on 4.5.2

Stuck at Kindle Fire logo

Shows in PC as Internal Storage but just empty folders Music, DCIM etc...

Can get ADB connection (good news?)

That's it....now here's the interesting bit.....

If I use Kindle Fire Utility and try to root using Towelroot the device goes straight go lock screen. I slide to open and am confronted with Towelroot app. Click on Make It Rain but nothing happens.

If I try other things like installing SU it returns with permission errors.

I can also get to the devices settings too. No other apps installed just HDXPOSED and TOWELROOT.

Got me baffled... Any ideas how to fix?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cl4ncy:
You can NOT use Towelroot for 4.5.2! You must use Kingroot. Read about this, I've no experience with it. From what I've read it's possible it requires internet connection, I also read this could be for optional download of some browser or whatever, so try to disable such options, if available. You should avoid internet connection, or have it as short as possible, to avoid OTA upate from Amazon to 4.5.4.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myotai:
Yep I get that I can't use TOWELROOT. I'm just pointing out that installing it gets me past the stuck Kindle Logo into the devices settings. Just no other apps or home scree though. Can't lock screen and if I restart the device it sticks at logo again....
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Nothing comes to mind. Generally being stuck at the grey Kindle logo is terminal on a device with stock recovery and a locked bootloader. For future reference HDXPOSED is obsolete and may have contributed to your woes. It was never designed for FireOS v4 and doesn't work well on later versions of FireOS v3.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myotai:
Thanks,

Yet I can get as far as 'Settings'. Isn't there a way I can push an update via ADB and flash....I guess I'd need to install root first? Is either possible?

P.s its not the grey logo its the coloured orange animated one.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Assume you tried another factory reset. Being stuck at the orange logo offers some hope but there is no Rx that I know of.

Obtaining root is obviously desirable. You can try installing Kingroot via adb install and hope it executes (like towelroot apparently does) and continues to completion. If successfully you could try to repair the damage that is preventing FireOS from fully booting.

I recall someone saying installing a different launcher (eg: Nova) allowed their Kindle to boot.

Another path is to place the 3.2.8 rollback file into the root of sdcard and hope it takes.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myotai:
Thanks - I have had a look but can't see a specific guide to installing Kingroot via adb. There are generic tips and pointers but I want to salvage what I have and not completely brick it - does anyone know where the thread is?

Thanks...
