Model: 4GB RAM

Baseband version: 1603_5.0.66.8_0704,1546_7.0.29.0_0413

Build number: LRX21V.WW-ASUS_Z00A-2.20.40.194_20160713

Problem: 1- My phone does not recognize either SIM on slot 1 nor 2.

2- Fast charging not working, it takes like 7/8 hours to fully charge.

Both problems showed up at the same time

Bought this phone new, less then a month ago...

1. Wrong thread.

2. You might want to flash RAW firmware instead.

I did a clean install of MM (factory reset and cache erase) and now the screen freezes at least once a day.

- froze in the middle of GTA 3 game

- after a call was finished (3 times!)

- after being left idle for a couple of hours, it doesn't turn back

- while playing music via youtube. The music kept on playing but the screen would not turn on.

A member suggested disabling Splendid, but that didn't help with anything. Any ideas?

I have the same exact problem, 1 or 2 times a day the phone cannot be woken up or screen frezze and I have to press power button 30 seconds for it to reboot. This is annoying.

I did a factory reset (didn't enabled Splendid), but problem is still there.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shazish:
I figured out the issue, at least on my phone. After seeing the freeze happening on my phone just minutes after starting the phone with MM after side loading, I went to the safe mode to see if it still happens. It did not, so noticed there are only three apps that are disabled on safe mode: Google Slides, Google Docs, and Google Sheets. I decided to give it a shot and uninstalled all three.

Back to step one - I finally had two freezes in a row. Both happened when using navigation with Google Maps.

Camera Crash

Hi there, since I upgraded my firmware version to WW-2.20.40.198 via OTA my phone crashes all time when I start any cameras app, and it 'dies' and just boot again when I conected to phone charger. After I upgraded to WW-4.21.40.144 manualy to try fix this, and nothing changes, try again the new version WW-4.21.40.184, but nothing happens. Now I've unlocked bootloader and I'm trying to use CM, but the problem persists. Guess now was hardware problem, not software. =/

Anyone here has the same problem? Please.

Report Bug in calculator app

Model: 4GB RAM

Baseband version: 1603_5.068.9_0810,1546_7.0.29.0_0413

Build number: LRX21V.WW-ASUS_Z00A-2.20.40.198_20160930

Problem: Bug in the calculator app.

How to recreate: Open the calculator, switch on deg mode do either tan(90°) or tan(270°) and you get a number instead of impossible or infinity.

You should get this on deg mode because the value of the sine of 90° is 1 and the cosine is 0° so 1/0 = Math error / infinity.

The same goes for tan(270°) because the sine of 270° is -1 and the cosine is 0° so -1/0.

Have a nice day.

[T-Mobile LG G4] ambervals6:
You tell me lol I have had 4 different lg g4 purchased online and all came from tmobile employees. I don't think they stole them or else they would not sell them online with name and address. They all said it was a gift and I believe them because when you check the imei on tmo website it shows not recognized, meaning it was a gift for real and never registered for sale. So there is something going on with tmobile and this phone.

So, I ended up buying one of these units unknowingly online.

I've tried several online unlock services and tmobile has tried several times. Seems like even installing the h815 firmware hasn't worked for others. Any ideas?

Hey guys

I have My xperia z2 (4g lte) running on lollipop build 23.1.A.1.28 rooted with locked bootloader and custom recovery

My question is

Can i update to 5.1.1 without losing any file and without losing root!

I hope i get a fast reply!!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.loverlover:
You can update to 5.1.1 without loosing root when you flash prerooted firmware, but when I tried to do that unfortunately I had to wipe data else the systemui was not working, and Sony backup and restore won't let you restore your old data.

Hi! I have a question. But what does Back Up And Restore save then for you if it can't restore all your data? Because I'm afraid of losing all my gaming data, I don't wanna factory reset the phone because I don't know if my data will be saved... Rookie here :p
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] telbany94:
Well, I had the same situation as u( rooted with LB and custom recovery) . What I did is flashing 5.0.2 again to get back to stock recovery. Then installed the update normally through OTA with all my data preserved and no problems at alll ....but lost root of course.

You've another option that you can flash 5.1 directly through flashtool but untick the "wipe: data" before flashing. There is some prerooted FTFs in the forum ..choose the one suitable for u and flash it without wiping in flashtool.

Hope that helps.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Radu_Stancu:
I just did that last night. I made my own pre-rooted zip with recovery from Customized UK FTF , using the tutorials found here on XDA. I deleted cache with recovery and flashed the zip. Now I have 5.1.1 with root, no data lost and absolutely no issue and no force closing apps.

---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 PM ----------

If you don`t want pre-rooted firmware you should update your phone via PC Companion, it will backup all your data. But be warned that you WILL LOSE ROOT and it will be quite tricky get root back. Another way is to flash a stock FTF using flashtool and uncheck flash data. This way you won`t lose any data, you only LOSE ROOT.

If you are sure you don`t want root anymore go ahead. I strongly suggest flashing a pre-rooted firmware.

I plan on resting my phone due to growing problems but does Samsung lies fully restore your phone? Restore Ex. Downloaded and Pre-Installed Apps original state, restore contacts, keep you you device id and system settings（WiFi passwords, accounts)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Commodore 64:
You mean Samsung Kies, right?

I know it won't restore some of your app data, for example the progress made in some game app.

But it backs up and restores photos, SMS, ... Etc. Download and install Samsung kies on your PC and you will see what options it gives you in the program.

I personally don't rely on it to restore my app data, and back up/restore the app data using ADB.

Hello everyone. I've been using the stock firmware since i bought the phone but currently thinking to try cynogenmod.

What i want to ask is, does it worth to install CM as Sony's stock rom is pretty good both performance/battery consumption and UI wise, compared to many other phone like samsung which i never quite liked.

Will it improve the battery life which is sony has already done a good job on stock firmware and what other benefits will i get?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z2 General] Laz:
Try to use stock based rom if u don't want to loose drm keys. As cm requires an ub phone.
[Xperia Z2 General] Rajeev:
CM based roms have terrible camera performance. U will lost ur drm keys. Its contains ur camera clarity, bravia engine and so.. So better stick with stock Sony. But performance wise CM is best..
[Xperia Z2 General] Brick3:
Thanks delice_doluca. That was just the answer I was looking for.

A few things I want to say:

-You've said that the camera is limited to 8 mp but I didn't get what you meant. I can go up to 20.7 mp.

-Cm and other rom's light weight, fast performance is due to the lack of unnecessary bloatware but I dont see how its one of their strengt as you can remove those bloatwares on stock ROM too with root access.

-There's a security software inside Cm as you said but the only difference is that its built in. On stock ROM you just download it manually and besides i'm pretty sure the security programs you're going to download from by kaspersky, avira etc will be a lot better than the cm one. Again I don't think its an advantage either. Im tryong find some good reasons to justify installing cm but I just can't find besides some minor ones as many features that is considered strength of cm you can also do it on stock ROM and im wondering why do some people prefer using cm?
[Xperia Z2 General] _delice_doluca_:
- Camera is limited to 8mp if you want to apply scenes or choose another mode like HDR. When 20.7mp chosen, all you can do is to take the photo without any ambient or method oriented tuning. (no big deal actually, I shot at 20.7 Mp and tune it in my computer layer. However I wished there was HDR on 20.7 mp)

- do not think bloat ware only as additional apps. There are also background services, running under the OS, or other methods of the OS handling the user's or automated requests. I am not an Android developing master but I can give an example from Linux world. Last month Linux Mint released a new version and they announced their desktop environment (Cinnamon) was now using %40 less CPU even thought it had introduced more effects and options to the user. The trick was to calculate desktop's actions more efficiently and in a more harmonic way so the processes would not fight with each other. So they have knocked the CPU's door at more empty times and less frequently.

Stock Android is tailored by one team, with the same goals at their heads. Sony has another team who is also dressing it and tailoring some parts again. The Sony team is supposed to know what the first team intended and how good they are so they can make the modification exactly like they desired. However now the hybrid OS is designed by two different teams with (maybe entirety) different goals in minds. Don't get me wrong, Sony is the closest and most friendly team to the original Android project and to Google but still it is a complex effort and simplicity is everyone's friend in complex jobs.

- About the security software. Stock Sony ROM is the one which comes with security software (McAfee I guess). CM is open as a nature and you can limit user apps one by one (which is possible where root access exist, regardless of the ROM). My thinking is, all the Antivirus software is unnecessary in Android world. The one and only protection is common sense (simply don't install or clock everything :))

What I have been writing should not make you want to install CM BTW :) CM or other stock Android - like ROMs exist mostly for the people who are saying "I wish that was the next Nexus device, like Xperia Nexus". Basically, for an Xperia device, wanting to install stock Android is just about personal joy or habits coming from another stock Android device (mostly a Nexus).

Don't look for bigger reasons as you probably will not find. All you need to have in your mind is liking stock Android more than Sony's Android and some free time to build your own device experience.

Ps: stock Android term is used for Google's own Android which is not touched by any other company (Sony, Samsung, HTC etc.)
[Xperia Z2 General] Brick3:
I guess i'll continue to use stock ROM as i'm happy with it.

So you want the Original hot spot Files from the LG G4? Not the modified ones that work? If that is correct I can get you a link to the original files. IF you want to use your Mobile hotspot, I recommend using the link that geoff pointed your towards.

[Verizon LG G4] player911:
From my understanding, you do not need to the originals. In fact typically you rename them as "xxxxx.xxx.bak" which keeps them on the phone but renders the file useless so the modified ones can be used in their place.

Glad you got it worked out.
[Verizon LG G4] b3y0ndd34th:
No problem, I'm not sure why you want them, but there are here if anyone else comes across a problem and needs them as well.

This is correct. The New files are completely independent of the previous files. You can technically delete them. You shouldn't ever delete them, renaming them is suffice, it's not like this apps take up a huge amount of space.
[Verizon LG G4] geoff5093:
No, they get renamed so are useless. They are only there if you want to revert back.
