[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamilr:
I want to share with you my experiences from failed rom flashing. I have branded hungarian rom, and wanted to flash polish unbranded one.

I download polish rom G800FXXU1AOG2_G800FXEO1AOG1_XEO.zip from sammobile.com and flashed it via odin.

Unfortunatelly it freeze at hidden.img:

Phone got soft brick :(

What to do next? After hour of searching and trying i found that roms from various regions can have different size of hidden.img and it can cause that error during flash.

All you have to do is rename your rom file *.tar.md5 to *.tar and then extract files using 7zip or winrar, or other unpacking soft.

Then:

1. Remove usb cable and battery from your phone which is still in download mode (frozzen)

2. Turn download mode again (hold vol down+home+power button for some seconds)

3. Add modem.bin from extracted archive to odin CP field (make sure that re-partition is not ticked)

4. Start flash

If you are lucky as me, everything will flash correctly and phone will boot up :)

Anyway, do anybody know how to repair it permanently (to flash next time as human :))? I tried to repartition it with PIT file but it didnt make difference. Maybe bad pit file? or what?

What do you mean? Add the cp file with the ap file? or just the cp file?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morthawt:
So AP is only for .md5 and the CP field is for straight .bin components of a firmware rom?

on the htc4350/herald you usually have 4 small icons which leads to the Battery, the thing that flips the screen, another icon thet leads to the comm manager and the 4th one for the backlight and that stuff.

now what happened to me is that the first 2 icons dissappeared but if i tap on the wallpaper exactly where the icons used to be, they still work.....how can i get those 2 icons back? (the battery icon and the flip screen icon)

thanks ;)
[Wing, P4350 General] charmed_dude:
I'm not sure if you've fixed this problem since the post is so old, but if it does happen to you do this:

1. In TODAY SCREEN ITEMS, Edit the HTC Plugin Icons to NOT APPEAR on the Home Screen. Exit the TODAY SCREEN ITEMS and reset your device.

2. Go back to TODAY SCREEN ITEMS and put the HTC Plugin Icons back. This should now enable all four of those icons to appear on your screen. Doing this and moving them up and down will enable it to re-apper!

This might be of interest to other Dell Venue 8 7840 owners/users.

Dell has a two port dongle that allows connection of both data transfer (e.g. flash stick with standard USB connector) and a charging cable (micro-USB) at the same time.

Dell product code is: 470-ABES.

The cost from a UK trade distributor was about £12, but by the time tax and shipping were added it was far cheaper, about £18, from flea-bay.

Just tested this with a 64-GB USB3 flash stick and worked perfectly.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] bzn:
Hi everyone,

I'm looking for someone who already managed to upgrade a german T-Mobile MDA compact III to WM6. Has anyone experiences with this? It's my business phone and I don't want to break it.

1. Is there any chance to reflash the old WM5 ROM if something goes wrong?

2. How can I save the old ROM!?

3. Do I need to setup any regional settings if I use the O2 ROM for example?

Thanks for all answers!
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Underwaterdub:
You shurely can use the O2 ROM. Regional settings? You can change the regional settings in the ROM, but you don´t neet to if you use the german version of the O2 ROM.

There is a way to make a backup of your curent ROM to a storagecard. Use the search..

You should make a backup of your pim (contacts, tasks, calendar etc.) with PPCPimBackup because you can restor them with thiis program, but not with SPB Backup..

Is your phone sim- or netlocked? Normally the german tmob devices are..
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] uliba:
IMPORTANT: You can update - but before you flash your rom with any new os (like the O2) do the "uspl" (CID Unlock) first!

Look here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=308242
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] ghiatti1:
I have updated mine. Everything works fine, but the menues are in English.

The phone must be CID unlocked then you can flash any ROM you like. You can also find a CAB for T9 input in German.

Ciao
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] bzn:
Thanks a lot guys for all the information. I'll report later if it worked...
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] bzn:
Success

Thanks for all your information!

Everything worked fine.

At first I tried to make an backup, but I was not really successful, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=312871&page=5

But it didn't matter because I found a german wm5 rom for t-mobile:

XDA-DEV FTP -> "Uploads/Upload/Official MDA Compact III ROM/MDA Compact III German.exe"

So here is a conclusion for all noobs, like me:

1. Run USPL, get it here and read all the stuff: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=311403

2. Patch any ROM you like, for example one of those: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=362 or get one on the xda-dev ftp

I tried three or four of the ROMs from the forum, it was possible to flash them all, but I had to try it twice to "remove" the german O2 ROM (flash another ROM over the O2), but maybe I did something wrong in the first place.

What I would finally like is a T-Mobile branded german WM6 ROM. If anyone could give me some tipps where to start, I would appreciate it. I think it should be possible to extract the german O2 WM6 OS and somehow mix it with the T-Mobile stuff from the WM5 ROM. I know there is a lot information here on the forum, but any hint is nevertheless very appreciated ;)
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] t.pro:
what t-mobile stuff you like on phone?

try the Black&Blue 3.7 GERMAN ROM or wait 1-2 month for the HTC WM6 ROM or cook by your self :)

*ps i have an O² xda orbit but my provider is t-mobile. i currently use the WM6 GER of O²
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dabwoy:
Serious security related question here for the note 3(and maybe many other phones).

How can I change the ability to power down the phone while it is locked?

I'm mentioning this because I feel being able to turn off a locked phone kind of defeats the purpose of a lock as powering down is a function, which we should have none of if said device is locked. Also I thought those crucial moments of looking for your phone and calling it in a state of panic are thwarted if the ability to turn it off is there. This is probably an xposed option somewhere but I haven't been able to use it with this lollipop rom yet.

Additional info...

[Asus Transformer TF700] sam369:
When I watch YouTube videos with my bluetooth speaker connected to the tablet while running Lollipop-based ROMs like KatKiss and Zombi-POP, the video would speed up and the audio is also distorted. The problem has been partly resolved after I enabled AptX codec

setprop persist.service.btui.use_aptx 1

I wonder why it's not enabled by default in these ROMs.

The problem still happens occasionally. I wonder if modifying Bitpool will help. If so, how can that be done?
[Asus Transformer TF700] matt11601:
[MENTION=6915060]sam369[/MENTION]

I've been having the same problem with ZOMBI-POP RC1 and RC2 and have not found a solution. This is my experience:

I currently have my tablet connected to a bluetooth speaker and play all the audio through that. Every now and then, the audio will skip/speed up/play normally/speed up. In the app, you can see time skip. For example, the song starts at 0:00 then jumps to 0:02 then plays normally for a second then jumps 2 seconds ahead. If I disconnect from the bluetooth speaker and play the song normally, everything is fine.

Are you having a similar experience?

Of note, I upgraded from ZOMBI-POP RC1 to RC2 and the problem does not occur as frequently, but is still a problem. I'm wondering if this is kernel related because I'm using Omni kernel on RC2 but used _thats' kernel on RC1 and the problem occurred a lot more on RC1.

I really hope we can figure this out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sam369:
[MENTION=1024229]matt11601[/MENTION] Have you tried the command:

getprop persist.service.btui.use_aptx

It doesn't return anything. It means that AptX codec was not enabled. Then

setprop persist.service.btui.use_aptx 1

to enable AptX codec.

This mostly solves the problem. I have not figured out how to modify Bitpool yet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] matt11601:
I did that, except in the wrong order:

1) setprop persist.service.btui.use_aptx 1

2) getprop persist.service.btui.use_aptx

After #2, it did return a value of 1, but this doesn't tell me the setting before. However, this morning the audio problems happened again and I did not restart the tablet. I'm assuming this codec is still enabled, but I'll check again.

What I notice is the problem will either be fixed or return after my tablet wakes up. A reboot always fixes it. This is the one consistent observation I've noticed. Could it be related to the kernel? Or how Bluetooth is enabled from sleep. For my setup, I have Tasker turn Bluetooth off when the tablet screen is off. And then re-enabled when the screen is on.

What has your experience been?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sam369:
What I found is that it happens if the resources of the system is quite limited (there are resource-consuming processes) when the bluetooth speaker is connected.

If a solution cannot be easy found, maybe you can consider using other ROMs. You can install Crombi-kk to a microSD card with ROM2SD option. It is fast and doesn't have the problem, but I found that its WIFI is not as stable, though.
[Asus Transformer TF700] matt11601:
Ahh I see. Out of curiosity, how do you know it occurs when resources are low? I would love to monitor that too and report back my findings.

I've toyed around with switching ROMS. I was specifically thinking about 5.4 Resurrected, but the stability of RC2 is fantastic. I have not had a single random reboot or battery drain. I want to work through this because this ROM is excellent.

FYI, bluetooth audio worked well this morning. Fingers crossed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sam369:
Like I said the problem has been mostly solved after AptX codec was enabled, but it happened again yesterday when I was installing offline maps. After the task was finished, the problem was gone even without restarting the tablet.

I think you can try out omniROM. It's what ZOMBi-POP is based on but is lighter. I did not notice the problem. What you can do is to replace the contents of /system/ of ZOMBi-POP 5.1.1 RC2 20151210 with those of /system/ of omniROM, and choose omni kernel during installation. That worked well for me. No need to get separate SuperU or gapps, and you can get regular updates for omniROM.
