[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quantumtransfer:
So after poking about in the forum, I see that we can now push an old version of kitkat (4.4.4) and use the root exploit on it. I have done this with flashtool.

Q1: when root is attained on kitkat, what adb commands does one use to push a recovery with BL locked, if possible? (fastboot push recovery recovery.img)

Q2: after root is attained and you use the standard method of updating the firmware through ota? ( I did this and lollipop killed the root since the kernel is different now)

Q3: after root, should I flash a preroot verison of lollipop 5.0.2 stock using flashtools? (if so, I am missing the FTF to do so, I found the zip you can flash, however I cant find the original FTF preroot 5.0.2)

Q4: after root, what is the process used to back up drm keys and the partitions, if this ties to Q1, then ignore.. it is self explanatory if a recovery can be added.

Thanks for reading, if possible please help with links to these.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basti2909:
A1: if u successfull root use xzdr installer(otherwise it would be :fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)

A2: never ota with root. Could brick ur phone. Flash prerooted Updated zip file via recovery

A3 prerooted tft is not possible.

A4:after root use a tool to backup drm/ta partition. Maybe possible via recovery. Never tried it. Under general section is a guide for root, backup drm etc. It optians all needed tool, files and links http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3013343

Hello guys,

some days ago I changed the top motherboard (where camera is attached). Since then i couldnt get good wifi connection.

When changing the motherboard, i had the problem that i couldnt stick the wifi cover (as shown in the picture) properly to the new motherboard because I had no new tape. So i sticked it as good as possible and closed the phone.

Now my question: How can I stick the wifi cover properly to the motherboard so I can have good wifi connection. And if it is not possible, where can I buy this wifi cover with tape attached?

Thank you in advance.

Okay I have read many many threads. I have been searching for days and reading to the poi the where I'm about to just give up and smash my phone. I have a rooted note 3. Sm9005. Last week I tried using the freedom app with market enabler to mod the play store for free purchases, etc. Well I don't think I did it right because my play store stopped working group and kept force closing. I factory reset and tried to reinstall an updated play store but it still will not work. I tried Dow loading clockwork mod and flash the stock firmware. No luck. I tried to flash darthstalker rom. No luck. My phone will not connect to my pc even when USB debugging on. So I have to flash without a computer. I tried reinstalling samsung drivers but that doesnt work. I need someone with knowledge and patience. Please help somebody. I've looked and tried everything. I don't want to brick my phone.

However, according to this link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=47997173#post47997173 , there is a workaround by downloading the files manually and placing them in the right location.

But, this did not work for me. Did it work for anyone? Also, I'm trying to get the en-GB version to work. Would be awesome if anyone could help me get this to work. I have a whole personal assistant set up using this you see (using Tasker).

Hi!

When I navigate on the web using Pocket Internet Explorer on my pda-phone I cannot have access to some forum or view via browser my mail account.

I call my phone provider (gsm/gprs) and they tell me that I must not have activate IE' popup block.

Where can I found this option?

Thanks!

w_S
[Networking] levenum:
Your phone provider has morons in technical support!

There is no such thing as "pop-up blocker" in PIE (Pocket Internet Explorer).

The reason you can not see many sites is because this browser is very limited, it can not handle java and other things many sites, particularly forums and mail need to display properly.

What you need to do is download the free minimo (mozila) browser. It can handle almost any site and has tabs and other goodies - the downside is it is extremely slow (heavy app).
[Networking] wildsetup:
haha

I had my suspicions about that...

When they tell me about popup a huge doubt grow in me!

I thought I'm wrong

...

But there is a strange thing. One of my friend have hp 6515 with Windows Mobile 2003se and he can access to one forum that I can't access with my xda! ...it's strange...

What do you think about opera?

Thank you,

[Networking] Azimuth21:
i'm not sure what the deal is with your friend being able to browse the website while you can't, but i do highly recommend opera's latest beta. far and away a better browser than pie, with many more features such as tabs and flash support. most definitely one of, if not the, best for internet browsing on pocket pc.

I'm having issues.. I've been always lurking XDA (years now) I do not post frequently.. After my nexus 4 (3 years) I got my new nexus 6; I' ve always rooted them, etc.. this time after a couple of weeks (2-3) I rooted and got my franco kernel.. anyways everything was fine till a day that I ****'d up a flashed M by mistake, I had to re-do all my stuff after restoring latest 5.1.1 android version..

The thing is now my battery is dieing just too far. No geo-location, no bluetooth, no nfc, no LTE (only using 3g), mostly wi-fi, NO WAKELOCKS! and still its dieing too fast for the non use that im giving it..

For example

Yesterday night before sleeping it was 78% .. when i woke up: 40% it had 6 hours of deep sleep and still the battery drain was just insane..

Any ideas boys? Should i close bootloader and restock this and send to motorola for a change or what? Let me know which logs do you need.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidddaaron:
Wipe cache and dalvic cache that is a usual fix and simply flash elite kernel recommended I charge from 10 pm to 6 am and at 7 am im still at 98%

Lots of deep sleep

Use CPU spy app to look at deep sleep

Another fix for alot Samsung users was to disable volte under call settings and WiFi calling when not using it .Screen time out to, 15 seconds all the usual settings disabling

Best of luck

Do you have the search for wifi even when disabled turned off under wifi advanced settings?

Just for pictute proof the battery life gets better if you just charge decharge correctly

with Stock, the only one chance to change DPI without issue is with xposed but we have to wait, hopefully we get it workable. Or we get a fully working CM12.1 or AOSP or any of the both based.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xymay:
LG-815P is for LATAM, South Africa versions, check it out here: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g4-6901.php

What parts are you looking for 815P, at most of times, parts of different variants in the same model are interchangeable, except for frame, housing and loudspeaker assembly.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hotfingers:
Hi xymay,

I've also got a H815P (also from South Africa).

Do you know - Is it OK to use any H815 Rom on this phone?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakitos:
I have the version for Mexico and no, you need a ROM for H815P.

The root system can be flashed over any 815 version.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hotfingers:
Thank-you Pakitos.

I just want to ask to be sure that I understand you.

Are you saying 2 things.

One is that I must find a ROM for H815P.

The other is that I can use any H815's system inage on my phone.

Thanks,

Hotfingers :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakitos:
Yes there are 2 different things.

1) For the H815P you MUST flash a H815P ROM in order to not brick it. If you flash a H815N, H815TR, etc... your phone will be in an infinite boot loop best case scenario. Not really sure what happens if you flash a different ROM. It may not even boot.

2) When you root, you need to flash a system image that has root injected. Basically a hacked official ROM with the root installed on it. This system image works for every H815 version, so you dont have to worry about which variant you are on as long as it says H815 and matches your current ROM version.

Hope I made myself clear. If not, feel free to ask :fingers-crossed:
