[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MickieH:
Right, well, first things first.

To install recovery, download this --> Z1 Locked Dual Recovery 2.8.21 by NUT

This is the installer which you can run from your PC.

Make sure you have unknown sources ticked in your security settings, and USB debugging turned on in Developer options for it to work.

I use that one as I haven't tried the new combined installer/flashable recovery yet, and I know this one works fine on my Z1.

You could always download and use the newer combined one from NUT's download page if you wish, it's here --> Combined installer and flashable package

It's up to you on that.

Extract the zip file, then connect your phone to your PC while it's turned on, and double click the 'install.bat' and follow the on screen prompts. You will find that it will test reboot into recovery once it's finished anyway, if I remember correctly.

Once you have installed it, I would boot into recovery. You can press volume up or down when you turn your phone on, and it vibrates, or look for the NDR Utils app in your app drawer which is great for getting into recovery.

I like to use TWRP myself.

I'd create a backup once you're in recovery then at least you won't have to worry too much if anything does go wrong later.

Make sure you have a copy of the backup on an external SD card I would recommend.

That solves that problem.

Now, the newest firmware I have on my Z1 I have used PRF Creator, and created a zip file of it without including the modem files.

If you open the zip and look inside you will see the amss modem files, which are usually in the root directory, are missing.

This pre-rooted zip is C6903_Customized UK_1276-0875_14.6.A.1.236_R6D but without the modem files.

The zip can be downloaded here --> 14.6.A.1.236 For C6916 TM - UK Unbranded firmware with NO MODEM FILES

Be warned anyone downloading this that IT DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY MODEM FILES.

If you flash this in recovery, it will leave your current modem as is.

Now I can't guarantee that this will work, but you will have a working recovery anyway, so if it does go pear shaped, you can always restore that, and you'll be good.

PRF Zips will not wipe your userdata either, so anything on your internal memory will not be wiped.

While I find this good for minor OS version jumps, like 5.02 to 5.1.1, I do not recommend it for jumping different versions, i.e Lollipop back to KitKat for example. For something like that, I would personally prefer a full wipe.

Anyway, get the recovery installed and working, and once you're happy that you know how to use it, go ahead and flash the zip and see how you go.

If you do try it, and it works, great, just check your connectivity, mobile data, 2G, 3G, LTE, to make sure it's working ok.

If it doesn't work, I'm really sorry to have wasted your time, but you should be fine with a backup ready to fix any problems. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable will be along with a fix.

Anyway, good luck :good:
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Helgaiden:
i tried to do a clean install and wiped the data, dalvik cache, internal memory (zip file was on external SD), and cache then flashed the zip. After complete, I pressed "reboot." Screen went black and now the LED blinks orange. If I hold the power button, I feel the phone vibrate but nothing happens. Damnit.

edit: got fastboot and flashmode working again and I'm flashing stock 4.4.4. Maybe I'll try this method again to make sure I didn't mess something up along the way.

edit 2: after restoring stock 4.4.4 , re-rooting, re-doing the nuts recovery, then reflashing the the above zip...same problem. No hope for us on the c6916. I'll go back to 4.4.4 that ran better than 5.0.2 and just deal with the SD card issues in KK. Maybe i'll root it to fix that though..
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Helgaiden:
So I just found out that Android auto still require lollipop or better. DAMNIT. Just when I'm happy by moving back to 4.4.4 i find out that to use a feature of the vehicle I'm getting soon, I need to go back to the broken ass 5.0.2 lollipop firmware us Z1s owners are stuck with.

There has to be a solution to get us to 5.1. There just has to be. Any ideas?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helloperson:
What would happen if we tried creating a 5.1.1 pre-rooted zip for the tmobile z1s without the kernel and without the modem. I assume 5.1.1 would just not boot with the outdated kernel for 5.0.2, but it might still be worth trying, right?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Helgaiden:
Depends. Is 5.0.2 leaky because of an issue with the kernel? I would imagine if thats the case, it wouldnt solve the problem.

i noticed there is an Xposed module that would fix the memory leak issue so i wonder if anyone has gotten their rooted c6916 Z1s on 5.0.2 working with xposed...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MickieH:
Well, nice try, but sorry it didn't work for you.

Having a quick look at some of the other C6916 threads, it seems like it's a bit of a pig that one. Sorry.

[MENTION=2920544]Jaocagomez[/MENTION] How do you modified this ?

I want know how to do custom logo for create my own :p
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] khan1989:
Needed this! I hate that stupid bootloader unlocked message, ive been living with a Moto X Pure Boot logo, is upside down when flashed on this XT1580
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] Xadro:
You can use this tool. Click me

You'd have to make a dump of your logo partition first or modify one of the files in the op.
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] Trinytix:
Thanks !!! :victory:
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] Trinytix:
Impossible :crying:

This tool cant create .bin superior to 4 MB and didn't support officially the MXF and the problem is simple, the MXF has a quad HD screen so even the stock .bin without any modifications can't be save, he his too heavy :(

see : "Error: Images/options selected will not fit in logo.bin, Failed at bg Produced file is 421049 Too Large"

I absolutely don't know how [MENTION=2920544]Jaocagomez[/MENTION] do that, please can you help man ? :/

Edit : I have found a very simple solution!

I have delete useless file : the boot logo for locked bootloader (I have a unlocked bootloader).

After doing this, the file is much more lighter and there is no size problem anymore! :D

ps : I have created this thing lol

I will maybe create a thread for sharing my boot logo.
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] Spacerider:
I tried to remove the "unlocked bootloader warning" message by other methods but I only get a black image with distorded circles at startup. Now with these files I could restore the original image of my MXF. Thank you. :good:

But... still I have the unlocked bootloader message at startup. Does anyone know how to remove it? :confused:

Edit: I found your other post on this topic. Thanks again... :victory:

The boot animation is still white, right?
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] frey.derico:
Yess still right there after black motorola screen dude
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] sam00561:
i thought this would change boot animation to black that looked nice oh well.
[Droid Turbo 2 Themes and Apps] ChazzMatt:
Boot animation and boot logo are two different things. Boot logo is sometimes called the "splash screen".

This thread is for the boot logo to replace the annoying unlocked bootloader warning.

If you want another boot animation -- in addition to the boot logo (splash screen) there's plenty of other threads. I like this boot animation below -- YES, it's black -- and I posted it in my Moto Quark guide:

FLASH NEW BOOT ANIMATION - Google Bootanimation 60fps

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68539296&postcount=3

It should also work on Moto X Force (Kinzie).

For those looking for some different colored boot logos (in addition to the black and white one), here's some from my Moto Quark guide:

_________

Here's some custom boot logos from

my Moto Maxx/Moto Turbo guide.

Works on all Quarks -- Droid Turbo/Moto Turbo/Moto Maxx. Your choice of colors of the Motorola M logo. Very classy.

Install either via ADB (fastboot) or TWRP. Both choices are offered.

____________

BOOT LOGOS

You can just reflash your choice of boot logo to replace the unlocked warning screen. It's just a static image Motorola insists on showing you that your bootloader is unlocked.

I know, I UNLOCKED it on purpose! :p

Here's boot logos (not to be confused with boot animation -- the boot logo is what you see before the boot animation starts) you can flash with ADB. Various colors of the Motorola M logo.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottkeen:
I left my Google Nexus 5 on my bumper and it fell off at a busy intersection and was run over by cars and trucks. The touchscreen was totally destroyed.

Before...

I just replaced the touchscreen, and the phone works perfectly -- except the front facing camera is blurry. I know I can buy a replacement camera on eBay for $10, but figured I'd try and fix it if it was a simple fix. The main camera and rest of the phone works perfectly. Can the blurriness of the front camera be fixed?

After...

Rear (Main) Camera

Front Facing Camera
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imransyafi:
To me its definitely a hardware problem so nothing short of replacing it is gonna fix it. What exactly do you have in mind ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottkeen:
Maybe the front-facing camera needs to be replaced. The lens is a pin-hole, maybe some broken glass or road debris got into the pin-hole. I'll make one attempt to clear out any debris from the pin-hole before I give up and just buy a replacement part.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athanasis:
Hey. Nice fix. U made it like new! If u don't need a front camera why bother?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yzak58:
I think you have to get a new front camera module.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AtlasTheHobo:
I'm sure this is the right spot since it has to do with troubleshooting. Okay here goes, so I've looked in a lot of places in the nexus 6 and Samsung sections and cannot find any info on how to remove the binary for Samsung devices (I know, let me explain first) to be able to boot animation screens.... So, let me back up a bit and explain why I'm an idiot. I've been using rom installer to install boot screen animations for my rooted nexus 6 with 6.0.1 Marshmallow. Well, I noticed that some were the incorrect size for my phone when I installed them. I had noticed an option in the app under room extras to install binary to allow boot screen animations (boot animation fixer). I was in such a hurry that I didn't notice that right above it said Samsung. I foolishly installed it, it rebooted and now the boy animation is a plain Jane google writing in white with no animation. Can't remove it or revert to backup because all my backups got corrupted somehow. So now I thought if I can reverse this somehow by deleting the binary, or script, or whatever, it will fix it. I did research on the app and can't find out where it installs the binary to. I came on here and looked in the Samsung section as well as the nexus 6 section, which led me to ask for help. I've looked where the boot animations are stored on the system and there's nothing there and I'm worried if I dig anywhere else blindly I'll have to wipe and install 6.0.1 and root all over again, using up a LOT of my data to reinstall a LOT of apps that I have. I have like 239 apps so I would like to make that a last resort. The phone boots fine, I just don't like the bland boot animation. I want to show off the different animations that I use. I would appreciate the direction anyone could lead me in to solve this goof up that is my fault, but hey, I'm learning a lesson here.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I did find the XDA forum on the binary samsungani related to this (/system/bin/samsungani) and the boot animation binary (/system/bin/bootanimation) and deleted them. However, this did not change a thing.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aroy97:
I mean, as long as you're able to boot up, why not just install Titanium Backup and backup the apps. Reinstall your rom and just restore the apps, I would say that would be an easier fix. That way you won't be using any data.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
The problem is, as you yourself found it, the bootanimation.zip is missing. Copy one in system/media, give 644 as permissions (rw-r--r--). And there you are.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salehin4070:
Hello,

I have this Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) which I rooted a couple of days ago. Everything seemed fine, but suddenly the Heart rate sensor stopped working. Whenever I try to measure heart rate from the S-health app, it says to put my finger on the back of the phone where the flash and the sensor is. I put my finger there and nothing happens. So, did I break the sensor while rooting? Or Is there any other way to make it work again?

N.B. I'm on 5.1.1 and rooted using Unikernel.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quantumone:
Hello all. Hoping for a touch of help\advice. I received a generic Chinese cheapie tablet for Christmas (a prontotec axius 8 inch. Not terrible considering the price point, with specs, which may be relevant, as follows: an Allwinner a31s quad core running android 4.4.2 with a gig of DDR 3 and the last random kernel update, 3.3.0 inet_gpq@supperFAE #3 dated April 9th 2014 running stock firmware 4.6_20141201).

After trying virtually every one-touch root option, I finally succeeded with kingroot and get to have myself a bit of fun. Here is the problem: While I generally consider myself an old-school techie, this is my first rooted android device. This thing has 16 gigs onboard, but only 1 gig partitioned for data (app) storage. I've spent most of the night trying to figure out how to merge the media/internal SD partition into data without a PC/external SD/custom rom. I'm sitting at under 300 mb in the data partition after a few mandatory apps, and that just...stings.

If someone could kindly give me a rundown of my options (ideally with a stock ROM and no PC/external SD...I want to reallocate the space I have, my laptop is down with GPU issues, allocating critical files to an SD feels risky, and my system partition is also under a gig, so I don't want to play with custom ROMS until I have control of my storage...though if that isn't an option, any other advice would be greatly appreciated), I will be forever in your debt.
