[Sony Xperia E3] DXrep:
Hello fellow XDA members!

My phone specs: Sony Xperia E3 D2212 18.5.B.0.26

Recently I rooted the phone, using the method described in the following guide:

THAT I WON'T ENCLOSE

Everything went well, it was running perfectly.

Until, I just had to edit /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml file

After editing that file I rebooted, and these error messages came pouring in like: Unfortunately com.google.process.gapps has stopped working and various other including Camera, Google Play, Chrome and many of the system appsalso crashed with message like that.

So I tried flashing different ROMS (ftf file), even tried to download firmware from XperiFirm then extracting them with the Flashtool then making ftf file and flashing and, even tried to fastboot the sin files after decrypting them. These methods make my phone stuck on the Sony logo (NOTE: When tried to turn on there is one vibration which seems normal, but then another time the phone vibrates with purple sort of notification light glowing up for 1 or 2 seconds)

The only way to turn my phone on was to restore with the backup that I made after messing things up with the platform.xml file.

So, the phone doesnt get connected to internet and not even Walkman app works.

I am able to use the Call function and Message service.

If one could help me out in making my phone worth a bit more then than, or maybe restore it.

Help will be very much appreciated.

NOTE: adb, fastboot & flashmode are completely fine and working.

[Still Broken]

Can someone fetch me one xml file.

It's named: platform.xml

It's location is: /system/etc/permissions

More like: /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml

I guess the file from any model of Xperia E3 would be the same.

here's the platform xml file from my xperia e3 d2202 hope it works for you :good: View attachment 3471020
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowsnake19:
So I have been trying out several different custom roms, and the one that works best for me is AICP. The only problem I am having is with gamestream.

This issue is solely MOUSE related. When I stream a game that requires a mouse and keyboard, the mouse is not synced to the game. There is two mice chasing each other on screen at all times.

One mouse is the black default shield tablet mouse icon and the other one is from whatever pc game I am streaming for example mass effect2. What happens is the mice fight each other

for control of the screen. Instead of scrolling the screen and rotating the camera 360 degrees, the mice will instead run into the walls of the screen and the camera cant rotate anymore. Example

in mass effect 2 is the player character cant move freely or turn all the way around making the game unplayable.

Now, when I try the original nvidia tablet rom, everything is fine, there is only one onscreen mouse which is from the mass effect2 game not the black shield one, and everything is all fullscreen and synced up.

I tried installing the shield hub from the playstore into the custom rom AICP and it work just as well as Moonlight does, except they both have the double mice problem.

Does anyone know a fix for this? Or why the original shield tablet rom does not have this problem? I have tried updating to the latest AICP build as well.

It could be in a SETTINGS menu somewhere too but I cant find it.

Thanks guys, I love AICP, and want to fix this issue because so far its the only issue.

Note: I have installed 4 completely different custom roms, blisspop, slim, cm12, aicp. They all have the same issue, so this must me nvidia software related.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgutman:
The reason is that Nvidia has some custom mouse support in their stock ROM. Normally Android devices can't indicate relative movement of the mouse but Nvidia has added this capability in the Shield firmware. They also added the ability to hide the mouse cursor. Shield Hub uses these to avoid the double mouse issue on the stock ROM. I guess AICP doesn't implement them.

The root version of Moonlight reads mouse input directly from the event stream exposed by the kernel. It shouldn't have the issue with AICP.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowsnake19:
:D Wow, you are exactly right, the rooted version of Moonlight solved the issue, Thanks!!

do someone think it would be possible to mod the nexus 5 (old) to work on usb type c,

lets say you have the greatest soldering skills in the world, only thing important is charging and data transfer, and the reversibility. could it be done? :p
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
I don't think we have an USB 3.x controller inside the phone, so no.

Hey guys!

New to the forums, I've spent 3 days looking and trying various things to solve this but its beyond me so First Post on the site from me is a Question!

I have an Asus K01A (ME170cx according to the box). After following the instructions set out in http://xdaforums.com/android/help/instructions-reviving-me170c-me170cx-t3017466 to revive a soft brick.

After running through the set up process it comes to the WiFi set up page and say's "Turning WiFI on" - It stays like that permanently with the on/off toggle greyed out. After skipping through the rest of the set up process I went into Settings-> WiFi and it is greyed out there also with no ability to switch on/off.

After various reflashing (Downgrade and Upgrade) the issue still isn't fixed. I'm pulling my hair out here so any help or suggesstions would be awesome!

Many thanks!
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
hi this is my first thread and i would like to thank [MENTION=464050]-Mr. X-[/MENTION] for the original post and use of his mod.

i will be making more of these because well i like to theme my s6 like most people here. as i said this is my first theme thread i will take requests but bare with me as i do have 2 young kids so i may not be able to straight away.

all you need to do is flash via recovery, i have tested on my international flat s6 (g920f) and it works just fine so it may work on others iv no way of finding out so if u want to try please do but please, please, PLEASE...... do a nandroid backup before you flash as i do not want to be responsible for a bricked device.

enjoy......

also iv added the stock boot splash incase you dislike the mod
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
iv also made a few splash screens for twrp if any1 interested i will add more
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] sognare69:
Im interesting in more bootsplash. Can you make me some splash of gears of war and destiny (games of xbox one) please.

Thank you very much
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
i can do that if u get me the actual images u want ill resize etc and put in zip for u
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] sognare69:
thank you, can you make me two versions for image, one with Samsung Galaxy S6 logo and another without nothing
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
i can but due the picture being in a landscape mode u will lose most of the pic as i will need to trim it down 1440p for the phone screen i wil stil do it if u want but i think a portrait pic would come off better upto you....
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Here is a possible walking dead splash for fanatics like me :P
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
now this i can use as its portrait lol just this or wiv samsung writing or something else??
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Hmmm thinking.......what about perhaps something basic like the word loading at the bottom or maybe just something like Powered by Zombie Rom lol although their aint such....lol

Or blank and as is hmmm what would you add?
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
honestly it entirely upto u buddy its ur fone
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Well i have the game theme in mind so just "Loading....." at the bottom perhaps :)

That way rather than have it specific others can use also :)
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
ok no worries i shall do it lata gota c to my daughter ill post it this evening for u
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Family Comes first matey, dont rush im in no hurry :P

I will thank you kindly now and keep this going as it provides a different element to our S6 & Edges.

All the best

Graeme :)
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:

[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:

[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Hot darn just got bricked but thankfully not the hard bricked ? can still get into download mode, but not into Recovery.

The rescue of my S6E begins hmm wonder what conflicted?
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
make sure u flash the stock one bak ill av a look it worked ok for me i have g920f
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Should of been fine as i had your S6 splash working just fine. I'm on the 925F obviously. Very strange and by no means am i blaming you matey, I'll revive it lol

Strange though it just refuses to boot into recovery and wont even recognise when charger is connected (but had 85% anyway, its just my go to response to see if i need to start from scratch and i do lol

Gives me something to do ?
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
may av to flash odin firmware my bad im confusd as i thought both phones apart from a few thing are identical
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Yeh i have years of experience getting myself out of sticky situations, its not your fault and cant explain it myself, they are more or less identical and nothing you have or had done should of caused that hmm baffled ?
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Sad days my S6E is dead, tried flashing new firmware but nope wont boot just a poor black screen, not giving up but its not looking hopeful ????
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Somehow it deleted the Efs partition dam spent 6 hours sussing this out which means my S6 has met its maker as i don't have a backup.
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
what... really i do not get this at all i tried b4 i posted aswel im so sorry wot do u have edge??
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
i flashed again jus to check file is ok and it worked twice i dnt get hows it killed ur phone all i can do is say im sorry buddy
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Yes i have the SM-G925F not sure if it was something in your file or rather my phone just happened to have a weirdy moment at the time of flash which caused it to bork.

As you said it was tested and I'm not blaming you matey all is cool, i can now chalk this one down to experience or persevere and see if i can rescue it.
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Many Many long hours later i see this ahhhhhhhhh and whew ?
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
awsome how u manage that?? ill pm u in a min got an idea wana run by u as it goes....
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
With sheer determination and what my computer was saying was wrong it wasn't the efs lol

Odin was showing pass and all was flashing but it was lying also lol

Decided to use what I never and that is Kies and it's recovery and boom.

This was after going through partitioning and pit files etc etc :P

Always the most basic is where you'll find the answer :P
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] sn0wman1:
Hi. Love your work. Could you make 2 bootsplashes for me please. Would be really grateful. These are the images. Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:

[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:

[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:
Yeh heart in mouth moment eh, that though of making a .tar was an idea i had but wasnt quite sure how.

You would just request from a moderator to have it closed until you can perfect it dude :)
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:

[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] Duncan1982:

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

Hasn't worked, semi bricked, So whats the process now take param.bin file and make it a tar, how do I do that? I new it wouldn't be that easy. lol

Edit: Feeeeeeeeeew sorted it. F**cking shat myself then. lol. think I'll leave it to the experts. lol. Thanks anyway
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
i use 7zip for this use my stock one in 1st extract param to whereva u want then click on it to create zip scrol to tar when that has done open odin 3.10 put in the ap section it will flash then u reboot and all is good n bak to normal
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] sn0wman1:
I think I see where I went wrong, in the original it says logo.jpeg is 112 504 packed size 112 640 but in mine it says its 1,623,424 miles to big. But I did resize to the dimensions you said. Only thing I did different was drag my new param.bin file into the original zip. Do you think that could have been the problem? Thanks again for your help.

Edit: just tried again and it just seems my pic is way too big no matter what I try. I don't understand as I used the right dimensions
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] jack allen:
i edited on my fone 1st then changed size on pc then repacked
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] sn0wman1:

I don't pal sorry.. If you look at my conversation with ruudbwoi earlier in thread I just used one of his and changed the logo.jpg for one of my own then re-zipped the 2 files with 7zip and flashed through recovery
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] TheHardew:
Thanks, I think you can use 7-zip to tar it, but change its format to bin.
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] sn0wman1:
If you semi brick your phone you take the original param.bin and rename that to .tar and flash through odin
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] TheHardew:
You don't even have to rename it, just flashing with cp works. I tried [MENTION=464050]-Mr. X-[/MENTION] 's way to do it with terminal emulator and no success.

Hi guys,

can someone make me a flashable boot splash zip using the pic below.

I have tried several times using the pic [MENTION=2669188]144[/MENTION]0 x 2560 and 1422 x 2528.

have also reduced the quality to bring the size down from 1.2mg to 463kb.

After I flash my zip the old logo shows on screen and phone boots normal then when rebooting into recovery the splash logo

shows as a white/dotty screen. phone still boots and works fine.

flashing the stock & other splash zips work fine.

Is it just my pic? I am obviously doing something wrong.
[Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps] TheHardew:
Gonna do it after my win 10 updates.
