downgrade sch-i545 verizon

hey guys i upgraded my phone to lollipop version 5.0.1 and i would like to downgrade because i can't get to install a custom recovery to my phone bootloader is lock. please help

model-sch-i545

android version-5.0.1

base band version i545vrugoc1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackops11252:
Well first off how did you upgrade to 5.0.1? Did you take the OTA? If you did then you can not down grade.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Triscuit:
You will not be able to flash a recovery. Only people with the old MDK boot loader can.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackra1n:
My recommendation to you mate is that you root using the desktop version of king root, replace it with SuperSU, install flash fire beta, then install Strang5Litre ROM. Probably one of the best most stable Roms (and the only one out there at the moment) Everything you need is in the general section :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] zamzon:
Dear Experts,

Months ago my 2y old XZU on 4.4.4 (6833, towel rooted, locked, CWM recovery) started to fail on init of LCD, when coming out of standby. LCD init not only fails when device gets waked up by "power" button, but also when power is applied (Dock connector or USB). So I guess in fact it is a firmware issue (not a defective power button or the like).

It gets worse and worse; when device is warm it sometimes needs 30 or more off/on cycles.

When LCD init fails, the screen either stays black (only backlight) or colored lines show up shortly and fade away. But in fact the device is running - only LCD is not working.

But when init is successful, the XZU can run nicely for hours (as navi).

I hope that a android FW update might help!?

Unfortunately OTA doesn't seem to work on routed devices even with still locked boot loader.

Is there a way to update directly to 5.1.1 available now? Is it possible to update in two steps?

I would not mind to loose root, but loosing the possibility to write to external SDCARD!

Any help/ideas? THANKS A LOT!

Thomas
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Klaos3000:
Sounds like SOD, or Sleep Of Death. The Ultra had some issues with it back on Jelly Bean, but I hardly read about it being an issue on KitKat, but yeah, it's probably a software issue, so an update to 5.1.1 might just cure it. You have a couple of options here:

1. Update the official way by installing Sony's PC Companion app on your computer and updating it that way

2. Update it in a little less official way by updating it manually yourself with Flashtool on your computer

3. Update by flashing a customized version through a recovery system on your device (like CWM or TWRP)

I would personally update it through PC Companion if I were you, since I guess you're not that technical when it comes to flashing and troubleshooting things. PC Companion should notify you about the update as soon as you plug your Ultra to your computer. If it notifies you about the 5.0.2 update, then I guess you'll have to update to 5.0.2 first, and then you'll be able to update to 5.1.

Flashtool allows you to manually download a FTF, or the ROM file from XDA and then flash it yourself. It's a lot quicker than PC Companion, but also a lot more complicated for people who haven't used it before.

Flashing through a recovery is mainly for people who already are used to flashing and stuff like that, and know what they're (mostly) doing.

Any other questions? :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] zamzon:
Thanks for your very valuable hints!!!

I'm really curious if it will work with PC comp (vs. OTA) and if I will loose write access to SDRAM (introduced in Android 4.4 and regained by root and SDFix).

Currently the download is running..

Will post results
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Klaos3000:
The OTA will only tell you to connect to the computer to update. And regarding SD-card, that won't be an issue. Android will ask you to grant permission to the SD-card in some cases, but I haven't had any issues with it. Most if not all file explorers works just fine, and you won't experience any issues with the SD-card.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] zamzon:
The update worked (no error on PC), but device seemed dead afterwads :eek:

After a reset and numerous power off/on cycles, the LCD init worked and I could see the result. :laugh:

Root was gone, of course. Recovery system and write access to SDCARD, too. Therefore Sygic app (navi), which had been moved to ext. SDCard. could not run anymore and moved itself to .android again.

But worst of all: the init of LCD now works even more seldom!

It does not even work when device has been shut down before, cooled down and is then switched on.

As far as I read, the SOD is different, cause my device in fact is "awake". It runs fine - only LCD is not working and not displaying anything.

I have no idea how to fix this. I can not imagine any hardware defect, causing such behavior (and I designed embeded systems with gfx controllers, myself).

Thomas
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Klaos3000:
But that does sound like a hardware issue. The final thing you can do, before you'll have to send it in for repairs, or get a new device, is to do a full factory resetting and see if that finally helps. You just updated now, but there's still a lot of crap left over from the previous version, that might screw things up.

So my advice would be to do a wipe, check if it help, and if not either send it in for repairs or get a new device. It's not a software issue if the issue travels over several OS versions with you. It may be a faulty display connector.

hi, i have an issue with microphone: "ok google" is recognized but every word i say is not recepted, like there is too much distortion.

the recording app works normally. the google app doesn't, just in 4.4 rom.

in mirek 5.0 rom the google app works normally.

how strange? is there some setting in mic that i can modify?

i tried unistalling viper4x but got no luck

Hi Mirek:

First of all. Thanks for your fantastic work and sorry for my poor english

I have two X98 Air 3g. Both of them are C5J6 an 2.05 BIOS.

After flashig with your X98 Air 3G 4.4.4(C5Jx) mirek190_v4.2 one of them works great but the other one has a problem with the touch screen calibration.

When Pushed the screen the tablet the system shows has if I had pressed about 3 cms Upper at the left. I've tried touch calibration programs at the store but didn't solved the problem

When flashig with the V5 of your android 5.0 Rom works perfect. also with a mouse in the OTG port. What sould I do?

Thanks again for your work...Regards

PD: I've replace the boot.img file of the rom with "boot_touch_fixed_for_mirek190_roms_4,4.img" (renamed) and didn't work

My teclast model is C5j6 .

Help guys ?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] BoORDeL:
have you tried modified boot from mirek repository?

anyway let's wait for mirek response
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
Oh yeah. Finally (hopefully) the wifi drop-outs will be a thing of the past. It should be noted that you (Mirek) put 1.50 Intel USB drivers with the pack. These are not signed. I can handle unsigned drivers and I presume many of you can as well but it's not exactly common knowledge how to do it, especially as you get very vague error message about it.

I spent fair amount of time trying to get the MFT to work because I wanted to repartition, I never used Windows 10 after playing with it for a little bit for a couple of days so that's some 40GB of space that can be better used otherwise. I think the USB 1.1 drivers (which are signed) just won't work, MFT crashes immediately when it tried to start flashing. So I did it the hard way..

The caveat here is that the partition table has to be in the tablet itself ie you have to do

fastboot flash /tmp/partition.tbl partition.tbl

and then run the partition command with /tmp/partition.tbl

This is not exactly for the faint of heart so it might not be best possible idea to write down step by step guide as you can very easily make an attractive paperweight by mucking with the partition table.

In any case, there's an excel file you can use to create 54000MB data partition with 1024MB system partition and 256MB cache partition if you're so inclined. I was mildly shocked it all worked beautifully and my tablet still works. ;)
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] BoORDeL:
flashed OS with repartitioning with MFT.

No issues at all.

SO windows 10 pro 64bit

Have you tried to use the tool on a different PC?

there is a tutorial in the tecknight page containing all drivers need to flash OS using MFT : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62823535&postcount=5

have you tried to use them?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
I have used MFT before, but not on this box. There's also a more recent version (6.0.5.1) than tecknights-teclast-tutorials pack has.

I do recall having problems with the MFT last time but now that I've got my Mirek rom working properly, I'm not going to go out of my way to flash the tablet now.. I think that "new" MFT version solved it. Oh and the vid/pud values on my 64GB wifi Air II are not the same as on tecknight's custom MFT configuration.

It'd probably work on my home computer with no issues at all as well as its been set up properly once there.

In any case you can do everything with the fastboot app included in mirek's rom. I wonder if that's the same fastboot that you get with android sdk..
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
try alternative kernel for 4.4 - on my google drive and mega and tell me if works ....

Now its time for exploring the rom and report if there's any problem especially the faulty battery meter .

Does somebody have a fix for windows to change the value to 570 instate of stock clock @ 620MHz

p.s. only the reboot option is missing
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
Damn. The "wifi authentification problem" Is still here. After a while wifi will drop out and won't reconnect until you switch wifi off and on.

Btw no root in the rom? Faux pas!

reboot device :)
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:

Hi mirek,

The 7 buttons mod is present? Or only in version 6?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
No yet - will be in next release .
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
For wifi? Yeah, it works for a while after reboot but gets the authentification problems again after some time.

Does the lollipop rom have the same problem?

You'd think that it'd be possible to use wifi drivers from onda/pipo/Ramos using z3536.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
What do you mean authentication ?

Your wifi loose connection or loose password ?

If connection I'll provide you a small file to replace and then you will tell me it will helped .
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
What happens is that after some time (can be 5 min, can be 2 hours) wifi disconnects and will not connect again, it says authentication problem.

Switching wifi on/off fixes it for a short time but it can be back after 10min. Restarting tablet fixes it for longer time .

I haven't seen this for a little while now. 1st I changed "keep wifi on during standby" to "never", then I changed wifi power saving off and finally wifi on during standby back on. With a couple of days between each thing. So you might want to try switching wifi power save off at 1st just to see if that was the problem.

Devo provare a farlo pulito con il comando fastboot flash boot boot.img? ma dovrebbe essere lo stesso.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] BoORDeL:
se con la rom originale funzionava e ce l'hai ancora usa quel boot.img o invialo a mirek che se ha fatto modifiche te lo sistema.

traslation: if with the original rom touchscreen was working use that boot.img or send it to mirek for additional customizations
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] gerazzo:
now i'm back to factory image and the touch screen works like a charm.

The problem is when i flash the mirek rom. The issue is present with the default boot in rom and also with the alternative boot(kernel) downloaded from mirek source.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] BoORDeL:
use original boot from stock image instead of mirek one and try to flash mirek custom rom again.

touchscreen should finally work.

ok.... let's try

Thanks
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] BoORDeL:

ok contact mirek or wait for his answer

i am sorry i can't help you further.

is there any factory windows image i can download for teclast x98 3G?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
What about boot.img ?

Do you upload it ?

And mirek ... get well :)
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
Nasty, well get better!

In the meantime I guess I'll try lollipop again since kindle comics are now available from comixology app..
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Franckydiam:
Hi Mirek190,

I hope your temperature has dropped :)

When can we take advantage of these improvements ;)
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
Yes yes yes .... soon :)
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
Aargh, Comixology does not work either on lollipop. Well, it works but you get only preview porridge view, it never shows normal quality. I even changed DPI to 240 and 264 with no effect. Interestingly icons get smaller reducing dpi..

From kitkat titanium backup I noticed one item not present in lollipop was some kind of security manager. Well, mixing android components between versions is not a good idea. Got no choice, back to kitkat for me (again).
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] PDPR:
Hi Mirek, many thanks for your job.

Please, I think standard volume it's very loud in this 5.1 version. I'm not using viper4android. Distortion is very noticeable going beyond the middle of volume control, at least in my case.

Perhaps for next version:)

Best regards
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
As far as I know sd one devices ( not many ) got different speakers - that's why is too loud for you. But most devices is evtremally silent .

You can just turn off viper if you not need it .
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] PDPR:
The simplest, the best. I'll do it, thanks Mirek.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] Barleyman:
I wonder what are the lollipop v7 schedulers.. We have stock kernel so there is not a lot of choice. IO scheduler appears to be NOOP in v5.1 Kitkat so the latest rom probably uses deadline or CFQ. For CPU standard is on demand so it probably changed to interactive.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
I also noticed selinux is disabled (in permissive mode) and when turned on, everything is screw. Apps crashing or unable to start... Something is messed.

Too bad, the battery life was greatly improved. I kept a copy of the shell scripts modifying schedulers and other stuffs in init.d.

I think that's the good part of the rom.

By the way, i never feel confident with closed sources... Especially when it messed with security related issues like selinux and security manager....

Ce n'est pas très catholique, tout ça. ;)
