I'm sorry for my drama but problem solved. After reflashing XZDR problem dissappeared. Problem was Sony RIC still running after flashing your file. Reflashing XZDR kills Sony's RIC. I flashed sony's devieces a milion times and first time I was getting such problem. Once again sorry for my brainless and thanks for your interesting.
[Xperia Z2 General] Jackos:
Glad that worked out for you :) You could just change the value to keep the RIC killer, but reflashing does that job too :)
[Xperia Z2 General] RyTekk:
I always do a fresh install on every updates.
[Xperia Z2 General] AlanDS:
Looks like display flickering bug is there on fresh install only. I haven't seen this bug on my phone(No wipe install).
[Xperia Z2 General] Ningyou Higeki:
I can't use the downloaded small apps Mirror, Currency and Units now. They don't show up when I tap them. They are all made by Sony and downloaded from Google Play Store. But those stock small apps like Small Calculator work well. I tried both dirty and clean update but the problem wasn't solved. What should I do?

I made a fresh install and faced screen flickering issue for 2-3 sec which is typically after restarting the phone(actually it's not very disturbing)However after 2-3 days passed,I think this bug has gone...but I may be wrong...
[Xperia Z2 General] tOrNadO™:
Lol.. I even made a clean flash to check. No issues whatsoever.. :)
[Xperia Z2 General] Jackos:
The issue is definitively there. I can confirm it.
[Xperia Z2 General] tOrNadO™:
Maybe its a random bug, only few people are having it and some others like me aren't.. Very strange.. :confused:
[Xperia Z2 General] Jackos:
Who cares anyway. It's not a big deal. I noticed it only right after booting. Should be fixed in next Sony firmware.
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
Upgraded. No issues so far.
[Xperia Z2 General] vikrant7027:
Exactly! For few seconds after boot...but no problems

Quite good on 232
[Xperia Z2 General] anubis1980:
for some reason both 200 and 232 are slow on my phone. Lag present on both. i have wiped everything and tried various different sources. Restoring a 546 backup and phone is back to being smooth again. Not sure if anyone else notices this?
[Xperia Z2 General] Jackos:
Seems really weird. Maybe it's just scanning media storage? Let it "cool down" (and update applications from Google Play) for a few hours after flashing.

Did you try to check if there is any CPU usage etc.?
[Xperia Z2 General] anubis1980:
didn't actually check CPU useage. might put it back on when I am bored and look :) it was on for a day and had moments when it was ok, then jerky when scrolling etc. thanks for replying.
[Xperia Z2 General] Jackos:
I had that weird jerky effect when scrolling using the default launcher. Might want to check that. Also, those issues totally ceased after a few minutes of usage.
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
Still no issues here...

nice i guess time to move this one

or perhaps wait 6.0?
[Xperia Z2 General] mixxx5:
Got this information on mail

But what to do... Don't have upade center option

How is this works?
[Xperia Z2 General] akkufix:
Go in settings, scroll down and tap "about phone", first point is "Software-update".

Tap it and if available, load it.

It will only works on original stockroms, so no root or recovery and bootloader has to be locked..
[Xperia Z2 General] mixxx5:
I do that... But...

It says I have latest version :(
[Xperia Z2 General] antkalaitzakis96:
Then use pc companion.
[Xperia Z2 General] mixxx5:
Tried too... But the same. Maybe need wait some time.
[Xperia Z2 General] akkufix:
What is your current build-number? Last point in about-phone menu.

If it is not .232, then tap at Softwareupdate menu, the three dots in right upper corner and check there for update.

What's the deal with Sony's "customizations" on generic firmwares? Why are there multiple versions of the same generic FW and what defines which one corresponds to your phone?
[Xperia Z2 General] VaLee:
Different preinstalled bloatware for the most part, carriers also have their own branded customizations, maybe baseband aswell depending on the region. You can find your original customization number by dialing *#*#7378423#*#* and go to Service menu -> Service info -> Software info - > Customization Version.

You do not have to flash the same customization number your phone originally has, but it's a good idea to not flash carrier specific versions, always look for the unbranded ones in your region.

I for example came with CE1 preinstalled, but I flashed with no problems the UK,DE,CE3,CE5,AT,NCB versions, and they were all the same except the different preinstalled apps. Basically tried to get unbranded versions from Europe.

Hope this clears some things.
[Xperia Z2 General] javitogomezzzz:
Mine apparently is R7C. I guess I'll wait a little more and if the update still doesn't get pushed I'll just flash an european generic FTF

One of the best, if not THE best stock firmware for Z2. Absolutely amazing battery life that matches KitKat times (maybe 23.4.A.1.200 was slightly better in this regard, but Stagefright...).

It could be the last and final firmware for Z2 as far as I`m concerned. Bravo Sony, 10/10.

Upgrade ASAP people!
[Xperia Z2 General] Dendis:
What battery saving things are you using? Root? Tell me everything!! Thanks!!
[Xperia Z2 General] artpra:
Nothing fancy, just rooted CE1 variant, debloated with moly82 script and then manually corrected with Titanium Backup. Stamina mode on with default settings. LTE mode, switching to lower speeds will increase battery performance even further. Oh, and I`m a little light when it comes to number of installed apps on my phone (I have 38).

Now I`m testing it with this and this but I don`t think it could be better than it already is.

[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] re2fl:
Received my new Virgin Mobile HTC 816 phone yesterday afternoon and I did the following:

1 - Unlocked the bootloader

2 - Installed CWM Recovery

3 - Did an Nandroid backup of my stock rom

4 - Flashed CM-12 for the HTC 816 and rebooted

It failed to boot into CM-12 so I restored my nandroid backup of the stock rom and it booted into a white screen and stays there. None of the buttons work and I had to wait for the battery to go dead before trying to boot back into CWM Recovery. It will not boot into fastboot, only the CWM Recovery, from within CWM Recovery I can choose Fastboot from advanced but this just boots me back into Recovery, ugghhhhhhhhhh.

I think I am screwed because if I can not get back into fastboot I can not restore the stock bootloader/recovery/rom and unbrick my beautiful new $149 phone.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance.

I did not enable debugging before i started and do not know if it's an 816g, though it just says 816 on the box. Guess I need a flashable stock virgin mobile rom, but can only find the ruu.exe...
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thoctor:
You can extract the rom. Zip from that ruu exe but without a locked bootloader I don't believe it will flash. USB debugging isn't required but locked bootloader is I believe for flashing stock rom . There are 2 or 3 CM based roms available that I found here at XDA that work for the Virgin Mobile U. S. single Sim variant. Model name is a5_chl. I have this same phone and am using unofficial CM12.1 I found near the end of forum for official CM12 by Grarak developer. Also there is Resurrection Remix 12CM based that I have flashed and works as well. Drummer1839's advice is good advice. Flash CM12 again or one of the others I've mentioned. First though I would flash TWRP 2.8.7.0 official instead of CWM for recovery . Heard it works better on our variant. It's what I use and never had a problem. Will find the links for you if you can't find them here yourself just don't have them at the moment.

---------- Post added at 07:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:59 AM ----------

That Resurrection Remix is an unofficial rom ported to our phone just like the 12.1 CM I mentioned. Their both found here in XDA just don't try to flash any official Resurrection Remix cause they don't support our phone. Only official one is the stock CM12 nightly build for the a5.

You'll also need to flash gapps zip for 12.1CM or 12CM depending on which one you decide on and the APN fix for Virgin Mobile that your can also find linked here in XDA all in that order of flashing. Rom zip first, gapps zip second, APN zip third and your all set.

Hey all,

I've been trying to troubleshoot a problem I have when pressing my dial pad number 1 and have been unsuccessful myself, maybe one of you might have some insight. I'm running an ATT 8525 w/Black Satin Normal WM6 ROM and my organization utilizes Good Messaging for exchange server communication.

My problem is whenever I press/tap (not type and not hold) the number 1 my voicemail is auto dialed and my Good Messaging contacts are maximized. I am unable to dial any phone number that utilizes the '1' digit because of this problem unless I create a contact or type it.

I've trolled the Good tech support page and found no such problem. I've tried reinstalling Good to no avail.

Any suggestions?

Hello,

So I just got my SM-G9200 and I have a problem. The IMEI number on the box is different from what is on the phone, so I can't get any cellular connection. I called my provider and they told me that needs to be worked out or else I won't be able to connect to the network.

The problem is that I bought this phone used and can't get a hold on the seller... How can I solve this? Should I buy a new IMEI?

For beginners – How to use SQLite Database Browser to change Google Keyboard Dictionary

Place the user_dict.db file in the PC

Download SQLite Database Browser to the PC (http://portableapps.com/apps/develop...owser_portable)

Open the EXE file, and run

You will be presented with this page:

Click Open Database. There will be two tables, i.e. “android_metadata” and “words”

Click Browse Data

Choose “words” from the Table (pulldown menu)

The content of the dictionary will be displayed. This “words” table (with the letter s) has 6 fields:

_id for indexing

word, the word

frequency, max 255, that is supposed to mean the most used choice. Lower figures mean more rare occurrence. So if one word that you seldom use keep popping up, change this to 100 or 10 or whatever.

locale: words considered system dictionary has the “null” notation. En_US means US English. This can be changed to null easily.

appid: don’t really know about this

shortcut: your shortcut

Just double click the record to change its value.

Typing certain letters in the FILTER will instantly show filtered records.

Try entering this :

hami% --> will show “hamil”, “hamili”, “hamilnya”. But not “kehamilan”. To show the latter, type %hami%

___ (three underscore, garis bawah) --> will show all words that consist of the three letters. One underscore is a subtitute of one letter.

Click on Execute SQL to write full SQL commands. Below, the command produces the same result as the filtered records above.

For locale, the value is "null" or "en_US" (without the quotes). This command shows all records with en_US value.

In practice, either value is OK; no difference in practice.

For frequency, the value is 0 to 255, with 255 means as the most often used word.

For Updating (changing values of) the database, use update command. Remember the table name is “words”, and the field name is “word”

For deleting, use the command “DELETE FROM words WHERE ….”

See SQL programming tutorial for further study but I guess updating and deleting is enough for the purpose of modifying the dictionary.

You may want to learn how to “import” if you have a lot of words to insert.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aprunic:
Hello all.

I know some (maybe all) questions of mine have been answered somewhere, but I just couldn't find them in a concise list, so to say...so please be gentle if I am asking something that's already been answered somewhere.

Here goes:

I bought a second hand Samsung S5, G900F, with SEE firmware G900FXXU1BOH5, still one year in warranty (it was bought from Telenor Serbia, but I can see it is actually with SEE firmware, no operator bloatware, logos etc and sha256sums are equal for SEE and MSR LP firmwares, both taken from Sammobile).

Since it is a rather fresh LP build, as we all know there is no way to root it and keep warranty (knox will trip), unless you go way back to KK with ANE2 firmware (or earlier).

Now, there are 2 versions of instructions for doing that:

- just flash SEE firmware build ANE2, reboot, wipe, install towelroot

- flash SEE firmware build ANE2, use PIT file, reboot, wipe, install towelroot

First confusion is here: do I need to use PIT file? Did partition layout change and will official KK firmware do it on it's own or not?

If PIT file is required, at what moment I should use it? First PIT, then firmware or the other way around?

Also, are bootloader, kernel and CP files required for anything (I do have full official KK image for SEE, so I guess I don't need these files separately, but...)?

Do I need to flash bootloader at some point because KK has different bootloader than LP, or the full firmware will take care of that too?

Next set of questions regards going back to LP, which does not seem to be answered precisely:

if I downgrade to KK (using one of the procedures mentioned), and successfully install root and SuperSU, how do I upgrade back to LP?

- do I install latest LP firmware for SEE through Odin?

- or, do I activate OTA upgrade and let the phone upgrade/update itself back from KK to LP?

I am pretty sure that the first method will again destroy root access, but is the second method even viable now? Will OTA work or I'd need to go through KIES?

Finally, since I'm dealing with stock firmwares all along, knox should stay at 0x0, but what about status? Will it change at some point from official to custom (shouldn't, but than again...)?

If it is not possible to do what I need, the solution seems to be to go to custom LP rom that has been rooted already, and has knox deactivated etc etc. - is it really the only way?

If so, can you propose which ones will not change the status of the phone (knox, official/custom)? How about Galaxy project, that one seems pretty stock-ish to me...

Sorry again if asking wrong/already answered questions and thank you.

Cheers, Andrea
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
I'm not sure how/if the partition layout changes between KK and LP, so I can't say for certain that a pit file *is* needed.....

My advice would be to try to roll back to KK without using one.......

If the roll back doesn't work, then try with the pit file.......

Plan A......Odin flash KK firmware then recovery wipe, reboot and towelroot.....In that order.

Plan B......Odin flash pit, odin flash KK firmware then recovery wipe, reboot and towelroot.....again in that order.

The bootloader, kernel etc files are all contained in the firmware that you will have downloaded from Samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com so no need to source and flash them separately.

As for upgrading again and keeping root....

Odin won't do that with a regular firmware, OTA will probably fail and Kies....well, I've always tried to avoid using it.

Realistically, the only options you have for upgrading and keeping root, are one of two apps from Chainfire.......

Either Mobile Odin or Flashfire......Both of which inject root while flashing firmwares......as Flashfire is the 'successor' to Mobile Odin, the chances are that it'll have a better chance of success than the older Mobile Odin.

One last thing......The pit file......

If you *do* find that you need one, make sure you get the CORRECT one......

It's not going to do your device ANY good if you try to flash a 32gb pit onto a 16gb device.....There may be other differences with the available pit files too, so research them before flashing one......

Sent from my rooted, debloated stocKK kn0x0 SM-G900F
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aprunic:
OK, your plans A and B for downgrade are more or less like I thought they should be...

But, on the subject of returning to LP after the rooting of KK with towelroot...regular firmware with Odin will erase everything and ofcourse kill su, like I said in my original post - but, why do you think OTA won't work?

If the downgrade does not change knox (stays 0x0) and status (stays Official) why would OTA upgrade fail? It changes some components, removes some and adds some new, why would it touch /xbin/su if OTA process does not know about its existance in the first place?

Kies should do the same like OTA (at least so they say) but I don't like it also, so I'd use it as a final resort.

Then we have Flashfire - I'm not quite clear how that works...would I be able to install latest LP over downgraded KK, and at the same time install supersu (from where?) during the installation of the original LP firmware? Because that's what I'm understanding from your post, that the process goes like that...

If not, what kind of firmware does Flashfire use? Custom ROM with su, disabled knox etc, simply allowing you to install it from the phone, or original firmware as well? What would be the procedure with it and would it change knox (shouldn't) or status from Official to Custom if I use it with original LP firmware to return from rooted KK to LP?

At last, the pit file - I could obtain only one for 16GB version that is not specifically marked as for some region or country, and I don't know if there is a pit file for 16GB SEE (South East Europe) G900F to be found. I tried searching but the best I could find was for BTU, which is for UK but seems to be usable for all of North Europe, everything else was much more specific.

Does somebody have/know where to find pit file that would be suitable for my device?

Again, thanks
