[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sexpeke:
Hello all, I just tried doing the whole QPST band modification thing that was a big hit with the 1+1. I was able to successfully modify the NV items, and they stuck when I re-read the devices NV memory, but after reboot they were always reset. Does anyone know of a patch or kernel that will allow for band modification?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kibmikey1:
You could try repeating the process with the motorola bp drivers (you can find them under the moto x 2014 thread) and see if it sticks. Also, make sure QXDM/QPST are up to date as well. Finally, it could be some new anti-tampering code for the 810 chip. At this point in time, it's too early (for me, at least, lol...) to tell. Good luck!

Hello, any progress? I have been reading this thread and its very confusing.. any luck mate?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RipRapRob:
OK, this is going to sound strange but bear with me:

Yesterday I received the 4.16.401.13 update (I'm running 100% stock, not rooted).

Soon after updating I noticed the launcher was unresponsive when trying to scroll vertically, from screen to screen. It feels like it's in the left 1/3 - 1/4 of the screen. I'ts only when I swipe from left of the screen to the right, not the other way. If I try, the screen will respond a little and then behave like I've removed my finger from the screen.

The same thing happens in some programs, but not all: QuickPic wil exhibit the same behavior, and not scroll thru my pictures if I start with my finger on the left 1/3 - 1/4 of the screen.

Here's where it gets strange: It's not in all programs. I downloaded a drawing program, just to see if it was a digitizer problem, but there is no problem drawing on the left side of the screen when I'm drawing.

I've uploaded a video to demo the problem:

[YOUTUBE]X0mwGijffMI[/YOUTUBE]

Hope it makes it clearer, otherwise ask.

(I've tried restarting the phone before posting this - no change).

Please Note: I don't know if this i related to the update, only that I noticed the problem soon after updating.

Can anyone help?

[XDA Assist] dannyxoid:
Hello. Im a galaxy s3 user and wanted to get full transparent accuweather widget for my phone since the original one really bothers me with its "hugeness" . I found one thread and i downloaded 100% transparent widget(Im new so i cannot attach links :/ ) . I installed it through CWM and i think the installation was successful but theres one little thing that bothers me. It looks good but under the clock there is a text line which contains just this: "%-B" I cannot figure out what this is and how to get rid of it :laugh: is there any way like edit something and delete this line? I tried to set not showing the city and weather, but it is still there. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I run on JB 4.3 Android Revolution HD. Thanks

EDIT: I just realised that there should be Day and date instead of that %-B if that helps
[XDA Assist] Mike B.:
Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.

We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist but it seems that a good place to ask would be the thread in which you found that widget. If you can't remember where the thread was, try the XDA area dedicated to the Samsung Galaxy S4 at http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4 which would be a good starting place. I suggest you post your question with all relevant details in the friendly Q&A forum there at http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/help where the experts familiar with your device will be best able to guide you.

Good luck!

EDIT: Member has now posted in the suggested area. Thread closed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] kitex2:
So I've been having this issue for a few weeks now, that netflix doesn't load videos anymore. I can browse with no issues and can stream other vod apps no problem it's just netflix. I've tried rebooting, reseting changing roms (of which could not find a good and stable one ) anyone else having this issue? My coworker has a 6 edge and has no issue and it works fine on my note 3
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Zuckron:
Do I loose my warranty if i change my SPL? My screen stopped working now, and I do not have my original SPL on my TyTN. I am a little bit afraid that I will not get a new one on the warranty. The thing that happened is that it rained on my Tytn.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] toyfreak:
Unfortunately, you may be out of luck anyway. Water damage is usually not covered (I think there is a way for the repair center to verify water intrusion with an indicator decal inside the phone that changes color or simething similar.)

But, if the screen does not come on at all they may not be able to verify your SPL anyway so you might as well try sending it in. All they can do is reject your claim and give you a repair estimate.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Zuckron:
My phone works again :D !

But i still want to send it in the repair. The qwerty keyboard has always been bad and i have to allign the screen all the time.

So.. How to go back to the old SPL? (do I have to btw?)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Doom Tints:
What the person above said still rings true if your screen works again -- they're going to see that the phone has had water damage.

If you want to proceed with changing the SPL, you'll find everything you need to know about this in the Wiki.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] todd_jg:
mrvanx.org has a great how-to for this. and yes, you should put it back. they *may+* not notice, but if they do, they will probably not honor the warranty. same with rom, radio and ipl.

regarding water, the indicator is usually in the battery compartment. looks like a small foam rubber square - very small. probably less than a centimeter square. what color is yours? they *will* check that.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] przmus:
Hello.

I'm currently using the PhilZ Touch recovery on my I9300, unfortunately I'm experiencing some random problems, so I would like to flash a new recovery. Can somebody recommend me a good, supported custom recovery for Galaxy S3? I use Android 5.1 ROMs if it changes anything.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dejvid50:
TWRP (latest ver.)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thechosenone43:
I agree:thumbup:;)

TWRP from Google Store. And I can recommend you the Resurrection Rom latest build 5.5.4 with 5.1 gapps!

I stick since months with RR :o
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thyl123:
CWM or TWRP. CWM is not supported anymore. TWRP is easy to use and in my opinion stable. I use it too. Don't want something other. ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp158:
1 annotation: there's no developer atm, so we've to use the last official 2.8.6.1 or [MENTION=5553598]Naveed Abbas[/MENTION]' builds, fe from here.

But it's for sure the most recommendable recovery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironandrew:
TWRP works very good!
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
So finally here it is, omnirom 5.1.1 for M2.

Changelog:

General:

sony kernel

omnirom

M2 specific:

device eagle

device yukon (msm8226 family)

Kernelsources for this rom you will find here

Installation:

In order to install one of my custom roms on your Sony Xperia, YOU MUST UNLOCK & UPDATE YOUR BOOTLOADER!

I wrote a little howto for installing, you will find it on this page of my website.

Known bugs:

camera

pink/green overlay on videoplayback

I labeled the rom as stable, even with the two bugs above. Imo these are value added services, phone is functioning rocksolid.

Known issues

There is an issue with a series of D230X / D240X devices with use different accelerometer and magnetometer then the device I have, and the FXP devs have. This issue is that the device bootloops. It is probably caused by the sensorhal which is provided by sony, i.e. we donot compile it from source.

There is a way to boot it, but you will have no sensors working (magno/accelero/proximity/light). This is relatively simple: Open up the zip (on win I advise 7zip), remove sensors.msm8226.so from system/vendor/lib/hw in the zip, and close the zip (click yes if prompted to save changes).

This issues kept me wake for weeks, but is yet not solved. You can read some more background info here

Awaiting all your feedback here. As I opted for D2303 to have official omni status, usefull input is important. But... Please donot report bugs without relevant logs and steps-to-reproduce. I will not look into that if I cannot reproduce it myself, if you report comes without a log

And at the end of this long story, we should not to forget to type a download link

>>>> DOWNLOAD HERE <<<<

Enjoy

Thanx are well in place for:

omnirom dev team

fxp dev team (especially to @kholk for simplifying things and @jerpelea for opening these opportunities for sony devices

@galaxyfreak

@Th3Ant (testing sensors over and over again)

my wife (there is allways enough coffee around here!)

And many I probably forgot but hey, this list is editable

[Sony Xperia M2] AssoDiPicche:
Is a good rom!! Thank
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
In case you need to update your bootloader, you can simply use this FTF, it will allow you to write in the recovery partition ;) (also compatible with models emma doesn't support, a.k.a. D2403)

Download here: https://mega.nz/#!ihojkCZD!kjZsxVWldI8QMGQhqmn8v_0xmPn02hu6N9ML8SY5Etk

BTW, very nice job erikcas, I'm going to test it right now :)
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
Proximitymeter fine here. Can you post a logcat and a dmesg like requested in OP next time before you revert? I cannot solve what I cannot reproduce.

I just reported a proximitymeter problem for Z1C to jerpelea this morning with this problem.

But on my M2 all is fine
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Working like a charm on mine. I'll ping you on whatsapp. Wait.
[Sony Xperia M2] andres_vlc:
I return later to install and you step logcat

Thank you!
[Sony Xperia M2] Gaurav007:
Can I test this on D2302?
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
I only tested on D2303 and D2403. I donot have a D2302, so I am not able to test nor debug on it
[Sony Xperia M2] AUDI97:
cant turn on after flashing boot.img in the zip,why?
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
You updated bootloader?

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Xperia Z1 Compact met Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia M2] AUDI97:
I use ftf from linuxct to update the bootloader, flash it using flashtool, my phone is d2305, is this rom support my model? Also I already deleted sensor file
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
See first post. I only test 2303 and 2403

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Xperia Z1 Compact met Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia M2] iFlashed:
Good job erickas! will test in my D2403...
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
I found out that you can't change screen brightness... the slider does nothing :(

But overall it is very good rom :D
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
No problems with that here.

Is your autobrightness working?
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
Not without sensors lib [emoji14]
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
there.... I knew it :P

Just sent you boot.img

Anyway, I think I made a typo in a configfile. So I will recompile again later.

On autobrightness it is working flawless, on non-autobrightness min and max are 180 and 255 atm

I think I need to lower 180 to some 10 (stock value)
[Sony Xperia M2] Konstantinosj77:
Just tested on "old" D2403

No problems with proximity

Great job erikcas!
[Sony Xperia M2] Konstantinosj77:
I guess it's not as smooth as 3.10..or is it?
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
that is one of the minor things

would have to do more testing. it is smooth

[MENTION=985241]erikcas[/MENTION] will that theme engine be in latest update of yours ?
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
I compile pure omnirom

Verstuurd vanaf mijn D5503 met Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
Omnirom 3.4 kernelbased with-the-working-cam available here (also added to op)

Flashing procedure is the same as 3.10 kernel. It should boot on all M2 types, but I really would not know if dualsim can work. Will check later this week.

Caution: not tested on 4.4.4 stock ftf. I first flashed 5.1.1 ftf before flashing this one.

In other threads I read some posts on battery drain on stock LP.... I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you flash this one.....

NB: My main focus will remain on developing for 3.10 kernel. Any issues on this rom (also the ones mentioned in first post) will be done on a totally "I-feel-like-it" base ;)

(donot tell anybody, as this is the first rom you donot have to install any gapps seperately)
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
Can I flash it directly on top of stock without wiping data?

And of course - Good job :D
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
Flashing procedure is same so wipe.

If not you will probably have bootloop

Verstuurd vanaf mijn D5503 met Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Im gonna try it right now on my (Really weird) D2303. And of course thanks for your job that you made on this rom [MENTION=985241]erikcas[/MENTION] !

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 PM ----------

Result is the same as the older omni: my device gets incredibly hot and i have infinite boot :c .
[Sony Xperia M2] rafix96:
So, this working on M2 Aqua (D2403)?
[Sony Xperia M2] Konstantinosj77:
[MENTION=985241]erikcas[/MENTION] Huge work!

So far tested and working

-Camera (photo and video)

-Wifi

-BT

-NFC

-4G data

FM radio doesnt work with spiritFM (I know its not supported just giving the info to those who want FM)
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
installed and it works! Thanks! (I even have camera for the first time on my M2 because I was never on stock rom) :)

I'm curious for some things, but if I can make calls and the battery life is not bad, I'll stick with this one...

I also appreciate the effort and information of the person behind this omnirom very much!
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
How much time does it takes at the first boot?
[Sony Xperia M2] Konstantinosj77:
For me took about 3-4 mins
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Ok thanks. So i got bootloop. Nice.
[Sony Xperia M2] Konstantinosj77:
You have a problem with sensors,right?
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Yes, i have the special D2303 xD
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
Fm radio is not implemented yet. Had some issues with it

Verstuurd vanaf mijn D5503 met Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia M2] Konstantinosj77:
FM is not a real issue...

The struggle is real with not adjustable brightness but i can live with it

So far and i can say its really really smooth! I'm surprised!
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
also something that was a constant in AOSP: the green effect when viewing (non-fullscreen) youtube movies in chrome. Now it's gone!

But indeed: I cannot adjust brightness, even when in manual mode...
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
Well the brightness is probably easy fixable but I had it with Android for this weekend. Time for a relaxing beer. And somewhere I shouted that I would share it this weekend so here you are ;)

Verstuurd vanaf mijn D5503 met Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
To be honest.. I did all testing on Aqua...

So yes
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
Hello,

After one night and some testing with this OMNI:

- stand-by battery is VERY good (like 0,5% in one hour): I only lost 3% in 8 hours. It is the first time since the march AOSP I have these values.

- bluetooth: works but when stopping/starting bluetooth there seems to be a re-pairing issue with previously paired devices

- auto-screen brightness doesn't work (as said before)

But I consider these 2 last issues very very minor so: congratulations! For the first time in months I'm NOT going back to the march AOSP....

So with this you have: (a very clean) Android 5.1.1, WiFi, Bluetooth, 4G and NFC (not tested myself), Camera, calls
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Sensors issue will be fixed?
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
My sensors work perfect. Please post logs. I need to see if it is the same problem as on 3.10 kernel. And no I cannot reproduce myself so I cannot smell if it is

If it is the same problem I suspect the issue is in the bootloader and not in kernel or in blobs.
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Im sorry for my incompetence but how i can post logs?
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
I will take care of it backwards. you know how to flash stock ftf?
[Sony Xperia M2] Lothgar:
Of course yes xD
[Sony Xperia M2] Billys20:
Hello Erikcas, how is the battery drain in this ROM?Same as the official 5.1.1 or worse?
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
Dunno, never used stock lp
[Sony Xperia M2] Gaurav007:
Yes battery backup is more than stock and also much faster compared to stock rom;)
[Sony Xperia M2] AssoDiPicche:
Thank you erikcas, battery draining is ok, camera works, and the sensor are ok!! Finally a good rom, brightness it's a minor bug, keep calm, you deserve a month off for me ahaha
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
+ one month off for Erikcas from me :)
[Sony Xperia M2] AssoDiPicche:
hahahahahah amazing, Youtube app work correctly, i'm very happiness!!
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
If YouTube works, then I am downloading it right now...
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
****, it is not booting on my D2303 with sensors issue. I would post logs but adb is not working while booting :(

EDIT: Adb works but it is unauthorized [emoji14]

EDIT2: Nevermind.... forgot that sensors blob have changed place... idiot me [emoji14]
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
oke, build a default bootloader rom, and it has the same result for me, as on updated bootloader:

in both situations I have the phone to crash in a bootloop whenever I call on the light or proximity sensor. Replacing the sensor.msm8226.so for kitkats gives me all working without issues.

Can anyone with the current sensor issue test by pushing the stock LOLLIPOP sensors.msm8226.so to /system/vendor/lib/

(you can download the lib here, click on "view raw" and it will download the blob to your pc)
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
I pushed it and my phone booted but screen rotation doesn't work.

EDIT: Proximity sensor works :)
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
haha... lol lol

can you also push this one to that dir, just to test?

btw.. finally almost complete working lollipop.. And now.. on this very moment.... Google is pushing android-6.0.0_r1
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
Pushed it with the same result. Proximity works but not the screen rotation

BTW: What has happened with the xda forum on tapatalk? 15 mins ago it worked and now it gives me get_config error :(
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
did the same:

- no light+proximity sensor

- pushed sensors.msm8226.so to /system/vendor/lib/hw

- hurray: light+proximity working!

BUT: after rebooting phone: bootloop when testing the same sensors again....
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
Hmm... I can reboot normally and I don't have a bootloop. I've rebooted like... 10 times already and it still works.
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
guess what: reflashed system.img (just to be sure), and lauched cpu-z to test sensors: all is working (light, prox, rotation works)

so without pushing the so file...

I even reflashed userdata just to be sure.

(confusion was partly because cpu-z didn't show light and prox values immediately, only the other sensors: therefore I started with the other .so file but in the end this wasn't necessary at all)
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
So what should I do to make rotation works? Because apparently only this sensor is not working for me right now :(
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
I will provide the boot, system and userdata img files tomorrow (no gapps in them yet) if you want so you can test yourself.

But these are build per erikcas instructions, so they are identical to his own builds.....
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
OK, thanks. I will try it tomorrow :) I would try to flash only system.img and it should work I guess. But as I said - tomorrow is the big day :D
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
nice. Finally, co-dev-ing in the thread!!
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
One info before sleeping... do you have a bug (?) when proximity sensor is running (ex. in ambient display or when calling) there is a red LED diode flashing. There was similar bug in Hangouts app but they fixed it.
[Sony Xperia M2] 31fahmi:
Do you have a plan for supporting D2302? Even you don't have the device
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
Just tested: when I make a call and keep phone near my face: screen goes down. When phone is on desk: screen comes up so proximity seems to be working.... No LED flashing at all....

Rotation also works (but that worked with Erikcas' build as well)

Here's my OMNI-erikcas build: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3Kv6vLpoAA0ZE9mSF95cXFqOE0/view?usp=sharing

(use fastboot to flash: no gapps on them)

works with old and new bootloader on my Xperia M2

Good luck!
[Sony Xperia M2] Billys20:
I tried to flash gapps for 5.1 but failed.Does anyone have a link with gapps that is working?
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
working on it.....

more specific: a OMNI Xperia M2 system.img with gapps in it. I don't know if that is what you want or expect.
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
I spent all my time on 2302 last 2 weeks before I went on holiday... so yes I try, but as long as I donot have the device....

Anyway, will compile a specific DSDS rom this week for testing, as the kernel is pure stock (+ some additions) ds support from kernel cannot be an issue

no guaranty, when you see the sensorissue popping up on 3.4 kernel :P
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
You can try this build:

It is OMNI for Xperia M2 (lollipop 5.1.1 r12) with gapps included.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3Kv6vLpoAA0UHNpV2tPWXdXeGs/view?usp=sharing

flash boot, system and userdata to be sure (with fastboot)

I have not tested this myself yet, so I'm curious.

All credits go to Erikcas.
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
gapps is included. why flash seperately?
[Sony Xperia M2] TrickiePad:
perhaps they tried my own build (without gapps).

It would help if people were more specific when reporting issues.

(I'm not even sure he was using OMNI)

anyway: now it is included....
[Sony Xperia M2] Billys20:
didn't know.Thnx!
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
true. Will open a faq for these kind of questions
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
So yeah... I flashed only system and it bootlooped... deleted sensors blob and it booted normally :P

EDIT: Same situation... Bootloop with everything flashed without changing blobs. Blobs changed - proximity works but screen rotation not.
[Sony Xperia M2] Billys20:
I installed the OmniROM with Gapps.Everything seem ok but screen brightness doesn't change neither automatically or manually.Any solution?
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
It doesn't work for now. Read some posts earlier :)
[Sony Xperia M2] erikcas:
I wrote that in first post :)
[Sony Xperia M2] Billys20:
Sorry!I didn't see that.
