[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilal978:
Hello All,

I am from Pakistan, and I have a Galaxy S3 I9300. I have upgraded it to 4.3 JB recently. I have flashed XXUGNA8 4.3 firmware for Pakistan, downloaded from sammobile. Everything works fine but I cannot make any calls. It says "not registered on network". However when I call the number from another phone, it rings but s3 doesn't receive any call.

I have tried many fixes given on the internet to no use. My IMEI is not corrupted. I have the same IMEI on the back under the battery as in the phone itself.

Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Problem has been solved by flashing XXUGMK6 firmware and the patched kernel and modem given here.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GP420:
Hello i have upgraded my Z3C D5803 from 5.0.2 Slim Rom (twrp and rooted & bootlader unlocked) to 5.1.1 Stock Firmware 23.4.A.0.546 using XPERIFIRM to download and Flashtool to package and flash to the phone.

I have been looking for days but i am unable to find a way to root the stock firmware without having to reflash a custom firmware. I use the ScreenMirroring and Dualshock Support on a daily basis and this is usually taken out of custom roms as Bloatware.

Everything i have tried so far has not worked. Currently it is completely stock, no custom loader, no root (however I do not know if flashing stock rom via Flashtool will relock the bootloader?) Edit: Although from what i have read and understood it is not possible to relock the bootloader (that easily)

I have had many android phones/tablets and rooted/unlocked the majority of them, i just cannot work this one out =[

Thanks for any help

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgaine:
I am exactly in the same position. All I want is my COMPLETELY stock 5.1.1 to have root access, and possibly custom recovery. I don't want it pre-debloated (will remove the apps I want remove with Titanium) I don't want Xposed or anything added to it.I don't want to have to flash-downgrade ROM or worse, install a custom ROM, then reupgrade, and all the palaver.

Just like you I have rooted and CWM'd successfully many phones like Xperia X10, Xperia Mini, Galaxy S1, Galaxy S2 and Fairphone and I have always managed to do it in a fairly straightforward way. Just like you I cannot work this one out. I have spent the best part of my free time in the last week searching the web and this website, to no avail. No one and nowhere is offering a simple way to root & CWM the Z3C on stock 5.1.1. It seems even less likely on a D5833 and even less so on a locked bootloader!

Feeling like giving up on this phone.... :crying:

The reason I ask is that mine is still buggered.

I had an xt1039 originally, drove over it in a 44 tonner and broke the digitiser. 2 new screens later and neither worked.

Bit the bullet and bought a used xt1039 one off eBay. Tesco version, already unlocked, but it was already upgraded to 5.02. Soft bricked it trying to restore to stock 4.3, sorted that by reinstalling stock 4.4.4, downgraded that to 4.4.3 but couldn't find a 4.4.2 Rom before I tried 4.3 again. Flashed different fsg and HLOS-NON files clearing the two modem files each time but to no avail. I have hunted high and low trying to get to the bottom of this reading through various threads on here, and I found theories along the lines of it only happens to those with O2 or Vodafone Sims or those networks who piggyback on them.

I did find a useful snippet that if I selected 2g I would at least get a stable phone signal which has worked fixing that, but I am on talktalk mobile(Vodafone) paying for 4 gig internet every month but ATM not using anywhere near that obviously. Vodafone's 3g coverage of the motorway network sucks anyway but something is better than nothing.

Before I give up and rip the motherboard out of my old one, is there any definitive to fix this? I am quite happy to supply any required information and answer any questions, and obviously any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Ta muchly.

With Moto G Falcon - Motorola made it impossible to boot 4.3, after upgrading to KitKat. It's probably the same case here. I would be careful with the file: motoboot.img (Bootloader) - it's unnecessary and dangerous to repeatedly flash it.

Provide a fastboot log of what happens when you try to flash the 5.1 Firmware Image. You can flash either Tesco or Retail GB from here:

Hi lost101

This is the firmware I just tried this morning, took two full flashes and a force shutdown before it booted properly. First time it got stuck and fell into dead android screen for recovery. Rebooted into bootloader again and reflashed, then it booted past the changing planet pic to the blue M, then hung there. Forced restart and it booted to optimizing apps and started fine. Turned it off, then restarted and deleted all the apns, installed the one I got in a text from Talktalk, selected network, and restarted again. Unfortunately, unless I select 2g in the preferred network types, it just keeps dropping signal.

Should I try the retail version rather than the Tesco Version?

Bugs:

When flashing, I get the following: "E:Error executing updater binary in zip"

This is a custom recovery bug. Try restarting recovery and flashing again. Alternatively you may need to:

TWRP > Wipe > Format Data > Yes​

Note: This will delete anything on internal storage - photos, music, videos etc.​

Frequently Asked Questions:

Why does my screen ripple | flicker?

This is due to compatibility issues between KitKat Bootloader and the Lollipop Kernel. Turn screen off once to fix. Upgrade Bootloader easily with: Bootloader Upgrader Tool

How to turn off Lock-screen rotation?

This setting is a built.prop edit. Use a text editor with root access to open: /system/build.prop - remove the last line, or change to 'false':

Just a thought... the kernel command line just runs /init. If I removed Android from /system, put the files for Arch Linux and symlinked /usr/lib/systemd/systemd to init, wouldn't Arch just happily boot atop the Android kernel? (I know, I'd need to make a custom kernel with systemd support). I'd probably also run into driver trouble, doubt X would work but I should at least be able to get to a tty, correct?

If that works... maybe I could reengineer some programs to use the Android drivers and use Gentoo to compile a Linux distro for the phone? Is this possible? Thanks!

So this is the story and I myself cannot believe how it all happened either. So, I have an Alcatel One Touch Fierce 2. Got it almost to the day it was released. Not a bad phone at all despite all I am about to say. So, it came with a locked bootloader so not an easy root to acquire. After researching, I found a link on XDA about how to root it. It's a very unorthodox exploit and I won't get into it but will leave the link if you want to read about it. So, I used the root method which BTW is with kingroot...but not only kingroot, Antutu is needed as well. Anyway, after a dozen or so attempts, I achieved root access. Needless to say, I was happy. So, I installed Titanium, Xposed Framework, lucky patcher and so on. Well, this is where it gets complicated. Somehow, not really sure, perhaps a conflict with an app I had caused my root go fail....BUT KingUser AND SuperSU were still installed . Root checker told me my device is not properly rooted. Then I tried everything...I mean everything. Factory Reset it well, by now...I'd say 100 times. No good. KingUser and SuperSU still there and no root access. It gets stranger. Some apps I have such as Aptoide will tell me my device IS rooted and some, well...most say it is not. I cannot regain root by any method now because of those installed apps that will not uninstall. And I cannot delete them because my phone SHOULD be rooted with them installed. So that's it for the most part. If ANYONE has a solution, you will win the prize. Trust me, I would be not only grateful but extremely amazed. I have spend I'm sure hundreds of hours doing everything I know and more to repair and....NOTHING. Please HELP!!

Before you burn me at the stake, I know the title is vague, but I do have a few questions I need answered if possible.

First things first, I have an Alcatel Pop One Touch C7. You're probably not familiar with the phone but I don't think it actually matters in this case.

Now, I dropped my phone a couple of weeks ago, and while the screen didn't crack, it is definitely not working properly. What I think happened is that the cable connecting the display to the phone is slightly dislodged. The screen shows washed up colors and seems to lag when trying to display a new "frame", for example when I type in something and the screen slowly fades in said something. I'll post pictures as soon as I can.

I tried opening the phone, but when I unscrewed the back, I saw this sticker going from the battery slot all the way to the board.

I watched a few videos showing how to "unstick" the sticker, but I don't have a heatgun or tool that can help me do so.

My question is:

Do you think this sticker is important to the phone, or can I just rip it out or cut it?

Thanks in advance
