[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhessjr2291:
Hello,

I followed the guide for the Working Root Method For 5.0 Lollipop ROms and I was on BOK3 and everything actually worked and the phone was rooted, good to go. I was able to start the phone, installed busybox and safestrap, everything mentioned on the page, phone was good and working. However, I made a mistake. When I went to wipe the data so I could install a ROM I somehow managed to format, or wipe something I was not supposed to. Now, everytime I turn the power on it sticks on the Samsung Galaxy S5 page with the "Custom" wording and the open lock. I have been able to get to the download mode and when I tried to Odin to G900VVRU2BOK3_G900VVZW2BOK3_G900VVRU2BOK3_HOME.tar it says it passes, but still freezes on the "Custom" power on page. I honestly don't know what else I can do to try to get the device to power on/restore it, I've tried the N2 Kernal from the same page as the the tar and it doesn't get me anywhere, though it also says it passes. I'll be up for work in a few hours and if you have anything for me to try or requests for additional information I'll see what I can.

I have attempted to run the root bat file, just to see if it works, but that will not even list the phone.

Thank you,

Dale.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] painiac:
If you flash NK2 kernel and try to boot into lollipop, you're definitely going to freeze on boot because lollipop can't boot with a kitkat kernel.

Flash BOK3 stock image in Odin again. That image has the kernel in it also, so you don't need to flash anything else. Then boot into stock recovery (hold vol+UP and power), clear cache, then reboot.

If that doesn't work, boot back into stock recovery, clear cache and factory reset, then reboot.

That may work.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhessjr2291:
Thanks for the help. I don't know what I was thinking last night/this morning. All set now! For some reason now it didn't root when I went back through the procedures, but that is a problem to solve at a different time. I appreciate your calm response to my panic.

You have the Backup? Please i need it
[Xperia Z5 General] Neoxide:
For those who have flashed the US firmware on your E6653 only to realize the Fingerprint scanner is not working, there's a simple way to get it working.

You need to rebuild the package with Flashtool

1. Download US firmware (E6603)

2. Download UK firmware (E6653)

* make sure you have checked "Unpack automatically" when downloading the firmwares

3. Open both folders and you'll need to replace the two following files in the US folder with the two from the UK folder

- elabel-E6653-row-row_201511160924345.1_32.0.A.6.200_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin

- oem_S1-SW-LIVE-F936-PID1-0006-MMC.sin

4. In Flashtool, go to Tools > Bundles > Create

5. Select the folder containing the US Firmware which you replaced the files with the UK ones.

6. Select/Enter the device, Branding and Version

7. Select All items in the Left box and move them to the Right

8. Click Create

Now flash it as you would normally do.

Test on mine. Working fine, I even gained the "Download Internet settings" option which I was missing before. :)

** I'm not responsible for anything going wrong or not working. My Device is work with no issues. Do at your own risk!
[Xperia Z5 General] Bumblecito:
Thanks, I'm giving it a try as soon as i get back my z5 from warranty.
[Xperia Z5 General] Archos866:
Are you seeing an improved battery life or cell quality now that you have the US version flashed? And would it be possible to change/replace the hosts file through unpacking the firmware before flashing?
[Xperia Z5 General] Phazonclash:
Thanks, I will give it a try
[Xperia Z5 General] Neoxide:
I can't say really, I had the Z5 for than 24h before I tried flashing the us version, so never really used a full charge on the carrier's firmware. All I can say though I My Z3 seems to have a better battery life.

As for changing/replacing the hosts file, I'm not sure I follow. here's a list of files the firmware contains.

[Xperia Z5 General] Phazonclash:
Did it. It works ;) I don't really know what it brings though. Newer baseband version? Better battery life? Better reception?
[Xperia Z5 General] Neoxide:
Not sure, but I tempted to do this again but also changing the modem_S1-MODEMSW-LIVE-F936-PID1-0006-MMC.sin file for the Bell version. I've unlocked a Bell Z5 and using it on Telus, my signal isn't the best (according to the signal bars) but reception and data is fine......
[Xperia Z5 General] Phazonclash:
I will try the Bell firmware too tomorrow (makes sense since I'm from Montréal, on Vidéotron's network though). I'm using the Vodafone UK firmware at the moment, but I realised it installed some carrier-specific bloat I can't uninstall or disable so... ;)
[Xperia Z5 General] Neoxide:
Just make sure you use the CUSTOMIZE US firmware but replace those files above. I'm downloading the Bell firmware right now to grab that modem file and try it with US customize version.

Flash this version E6603_Customized US_1300-4290_32.0.A.6.209_R4B

replace these two files with the ones from E6653_Customized UK_1298-5496_32.0.A.6.200_R11B

elabel-E6653-row-row_201511160924345.1_32.0.A.6.200_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin

oem_S1-SW-LIVE-F936-PID1-0006-MMC.sin

and modem file from E6653_Bell Mobility CA_1298-7702_32.0.A.6.200_R6B

modem_S1-MODEMSW-LIVE-F936-PID1-0006-MMC.sin

I'll let you know once I flashed it. Maybe I could just share the FTF file if it works, it'll save you downloading all three firmware.
[Xperia Z5 General] neonixxx:
Where are you guys downloading the US firmware from? I haven't been able to locate any source. In fact, searching for "E6603_Customized US_1300-4290_32.0.A.6.209_R4B" turns up only this thread, lol.
[Xperia Z5 General] Phazonclash:
On Xperifirm. Just install Flashtool http://www.flashtool.net/index.php
[Xperia Z5 General] gm007:
Download xperiafirm,it is included with flashtool by androxyde.
[Xperia Z5 General] cj1171:
Looking forward to doing this! How do I not wipe my data? Forgetting if it's a checkbox or not flashing a file...
[Xperia Z5 General] Phazonclash:
When you're about to flash the ROM, Flashtool let you choose the partitions you want to wipe (they're all unchecked by default)
[Xperia Z5 General] neonixxx:
Thanks, guys. I have Flashtool, but it wasn't syncing devices properly, so it had me thinking the Z5 firmwares weren't on there for some reason. Got it working now, though. :)
[Xperia Z5 General] arismelachrinos:
so on hardware the fingerprin scanner is there on the US z5 but not in software??
[Xperia Z5 General] neonixxx:
Just wanted to report back and add a +1 for this. It worked for me and the phone seems to be running just fine.

Really hoping that the newer firmware just maybe might fix the bluetooth connection issues this phone has.
[Xperia Z5 General] Phazonclash:
Xperifirm (install Flashtool, it's included)
[Xperia Z5 General] gdamarell@gmail.com:
So they included the actual scanner but turned it off? Why...

Edit - never mind. You mean you're in the US and have an imported version. I still wonder why they didn't include the scanner.
[Xperia Z5 General] RiTCHiE007:
Duh ofcourse you think they would make a new phone just for usa? Its due to legal reason that sony had to disable it.
[Xperia Z5 General] earoth88:
Also worked for me on my Z5C E5803 with Customised UK from E5823.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z5 General] Kirk0625:
Anyone else with a US device (E6603) try this out?
[Xperia Z5 General] sci2:
US user of an E6553 here - I just did this and everything went smoothly. I was hoping using the US variant would perhaps have my phone prefer band 12 over 4 (T-MO user), but all appears to be the same right now. Doesn't appear much has changed other than the phone reporting itself as an E6603.
[Xperia Z5 General] Kirk0625:
Also a T-Mo user, also wish this phone would use band 12, and glad to know it works. Also have you had a problem where your phone goes into roaming every time it's in your pocket, and won't pick up signal until you cycle airplane mode?
[Xperia Z5 General] sci2:
I haven't had that problem at all. Do you have tap to wake enabled? That was causing issues in my pocket from day one and I turned it off. Basically, the screen would turn on and all sorts of things would happen.

As far as band 12 is concerned, these phones WILL use it, but I think they're programmed to stay on 4 as much as possible. Might be worthwhile trying another modem file or two from areas/carriers (Canada?) that use 12 over 4.

Sidenote - I use a Pebble time watch and was getting pretty frequent random Bluetooth disconnects to the watch as well as my car stereo. It seems to be rock solid now. It's only been a day, but hopefully it'll remain that way.
[Xperia Z5 General] Kirk0625:
I had tap to wake enabled, for a while, but turned it off because it kept opening the emergency dialer in my pocket. I might have to look into the modem thing, but I'm still trying to decide if I want to flash this fingerprint sensor fix. I've had the phone less than a week and I haven't done anything to it.
[Xperia Z5 General] Kirk0625:
I guess I'll ask the stupid question: do I need to be rooted? I have a device, fresh out the box, what do I need to do to utilize this?
[Xperia Z5 General] sovanyio:
Just curious if the US rom has the 4G signal icon--which would be curious since no one markets LTE as 4G here--or if that is a byproduct of mixing the UK firmware (and maybe LTE will show with Central European 5 sources).

Also definitely wish NFC was a toggle-able icon, its so stupid to show NFC is on when you leave it on for oh idk, payments.
[Xperia Z5 General] cj1171:
Tried this with the MM US and AU firmwares and no luck....hmmmm....
[Xperia Z5 General] CowMix:
Are you supposed to replace

"elabel-E6603-row-row_201511190156201.1_32.1.A.1.163_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin"

in the US folder with

"elabel-E6653-row-row_201511160924345.1_32.1.A.1.163_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin"

from the UK Folder?

Should the final file in the US folder be named "elabel-E6603-row-row_201511190156201.1_32.1.A.1.163_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin" or "elabel-E6653-row-row_201511160924345.1_32.1.A.1.163_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin"?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z5 General] hansip87:
i guess you don't have to be rooted. you just need Flashtool to extract and combine things. and then flash the resultant ftf via Flashtool. seems like they are still signed by Sony so doesn't matter.
[Xperia Z5 General] misbehave:
Sorry I have to ask this.

What is the benefit of flashing the US firmware?

I've just bought an International version of Z5 from Amazon and trying to learn more about this phone on here.
[Xperia Z5 General] gm007:
Usually people try things if the phone is not working as it should.

If you live in US maybe flashing this firmware could give u better cell reception.
[Xperia Z5 General] misbehave:
But flashing this firmware will run the risk of making the fingerprint sensor not working?
[Xperia Z5 General] CowMix:
Just an update for anyone else looking to do this, I did a crc and md5 check between the Hong Kong E6653 and US E6603 modem files in the latest Marshmallow builds and they are exactly the same. So if you're in the US just flash the Hong Kong ftf for Marshmallow.
[Xperia Z5 General] misbehave:
Where can I get this Hong Kong ftf?
[Xperia Z5 General] CowMix:
Flashtool/Xperifirm
[Xperia Z5 General] hellario:
Hi, I did the Hong Kong ftf and now my google play services is continuously crashing. I tried to update from an apk and resetting it to built-in version and no luck - can't even open it and get constant warnings.

Any fix to this? Thanks!
[Xperia Z5 General] hellario:
Now, I tried to reflash with UK/US mix and it fixed google services but now my fingerprint scanner is not working...
[Xperia Z5 General] CowMix:
I had that issue originally you have to update your google play services after the flash
[Xperia Z5 General] hellario:
How did you update? I tried downloading apk separately and it didnt work, and I can't get into it because it insta-crashes. :(
[Xperia Z5 General] CowMix:
Hmm I think it just kind of resolved itself for me and I noticed it started downloading in my notification tray or maybe I opened the google play store.
[Xperia Z5 General] misbehave:
My google play services usually update itself over wifi.
[Xperia Z5 General] yakk00:
I am trying to flash my US Z5 Compact E5803 and am wondering the same. Do change the filename of the elabel file to match the original US file that is being replaced? And in Flashtool, do I name the build and version E5803 or E5823? I've searched the forums, but couldn't find the answer to these questions. I'm using the latest version of Flashtool 0.9.19.10.
[Xperia Z5 General] mohlsen8:
i tried it both ways (copying and pasting UK file in, and then also copying and pasting UK file in and renaming it with original US name). neither way worked on my z5c. bummer.

you can get fingerprint scanner working by flashing the customized UK version, for instance. i did this before i saw this post. which is what i guess i'm going to do again until someone smarter than me figures out how to do this right. i just worry that there's going to be issues running e5823 firmware on a model e5803 device. hrm.
[Xperia Z5 General] yakk00:
I did also. Thanks for replying! Can anybody else here offer us some guidance?
[Xperia Z5 General] MatMew:
Tidy little guide great work.
[Xperia Z5 General] antpalm8:
Did you not read the first post?
[Xperia Z5 General] MGSBigBoss:
Is it possible to upload the actual modified ftf for people to download and use without error? Also can someone confirm if it works on a US z5 device. I may be switching from Verizon and may purchase a unlocked z5 as I'm not feeling the xperia x performance atm. Just need to decide on the US version to show support or just get a 6653 so I can have it fully featured.
[Xperia Z5 General] aokuro:
Question about first file

Thank you for the detailed steps. I'm hoping to use this to make the fingerprint scanner work on a E6603 model, but I've run into a roadblock. I have downloaded every version of the UK E6653 firmware, but I have not been able to find the elabel-E6653-row-row_201511160924345.1_32.0.A.6.200_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin file in any of the folders. I also didn't find this file in the Custom US firmware folder. Is this file possibly called something else in different firmware?
[Xperia Z5 General] leo112358:
I've been wanting to give this a try but I want to know - I have the US version E6603. If I try to do this - will the fingerprint sensor work or am I wasting my time? Just curious.

Okay. I tried it and it didn't work. I downloaded the UK Custom firmware off xperifirm. Was I supposed to get a different one? I followed all the other steps to the letter.

Hi leo112358. Where you able to find the elabel-E6653-row-row_201511160924345.1_32.0.A.6.200_S1-ELABEL-LIVE-F936-PID1-0004-MMC.sin file in the UK Custom firmware?
