Is the ION development DEAD :crying:

It seems like no one else is still using Xperia Ion I'm currently using this rom enduring the minor bugs and adding up to date sony stock apps and themes with some xposed modules which lead to some minor lagging :( .Every one has abandoned our Ion (MIUI developers ,Lineage OS developers who added aoba to the supported devices list then removed it :( and finally Xperia Overlay who actually made a Marshmallow rom but not only it wasn't free now it's not available at all :crying:)

Please if anyone managed to purchase the marshmallow firmware from Xperia Overlay share it with the others who couldn't purchase it then and now they will never be able to :crying: :crying: :crying: .
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] XorgX:
Marshmallow firmware from Xperia Overlay, that would be nice.

Or CM13 for ixperia ion or if it posible "Project Treble" something like this https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75527103&postcount=2233.

Found a copy of Xperia Overlay V4.0

I was digging in the internet hoping I might find something related when I stumbled upon a Russian forum and there was a thread that discuss all Xperia Ion's roms there I found this link : https://cloud.mail.ru/public/67FV/fE7CZD5fF

and there it is the only marshmallow rom for Ion . The sad thing is I couldn't try it because my phone suddenly died :crying:

I tried every thing to repair it but nothing worked :crying: .

P.s : I noticed that the rom size is larger than the system partition of the ion so I suggest you delete some apps that you can install later from the play store so that it fits in the system. enjoy.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imansahidin:
thanks dev wissam, i have downloaded the v4.0 overlay file and how to install it, i am afraid my phone totally dead
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ivoda:
Is there any tutorial how to install this? How do I know is it for Ion?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Wissam (53):
As I said I couldn't try it but I think same as the previous version :

1- Flash boot.img with fastboot.

2- boot to recovery (by pressing power button constantly while booting).

3- put the zip in internal storage and flash then reboot.

to make sure it's for Ion open build.prop from the system folder inside the zip and you'll find ts lt28

and as I said before remove some apps (like playstation or youtube......) from the system folder in the zip to make sure it fits in the system partition.

Edit: Or you can use the update center : https://cloud.mail.ru/public/EXfe/sRSZHTtKm
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imansahidin:
I've installed via twrp and got that symlink: some symlink failed, E: executor error updater binary in zip
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Wissam (53):
Try the update center (link in my previous post) that should install it without any errors.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
It doesnot recognize device...have u tried installing it? Where shall we put the update.zip?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Wissam (53):
No I haven't my Ion is DEAD I took it to a maintenance shop and they said the chipset was fried :crying:

See this video [youtube]TT056wLMZlQ[/youtube]
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
Update center doesnot allow me to select device ...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Wissam (53):
Make sure you have the latest flashtool and fastboot drivers installed

And make sure you're device can connect to flashtool in fastboot then try again.

plish help instaling overlay v4.0

hi dev wissam .. can you help me to install v4.0 overlay, because sya many times install always fail, please and i am very grateful.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Wissam (53):
Hi, I'm not a dev. I was just lucky to find the rom and I didn't install it but the tutorial is available from XperiaOverlay on youtube (I posted the video earlier) and you must have the latest flashtool and fastboot drivers installed so your pc can detect the phone in fastboot mod .

If anyone was able to successfully install this rom please share the steps you took to avoid errors .
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ceriqdesign:
this past 2 days i'm working out to flash xperia overlay v4 but no luck..already using xperia overlay update center but it keep goes to twrp.

If you're are trying to flash using flashtool it will end up bootloop..haha..but i'm keep trying to flash the rom..i'l update later if success..:);)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Aang dur:
big thanks

I hope you can install overrlay v4, I wait for your work result.success always and thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ceriqdesign:
After 3 attempts to flash the rom, i still can't make it..it successful go to TWRP and in the middle of install there is symlink error..i think the caused of it is script-binary. if someone can change the script-binary we will be success to flash the rom..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] evilhedrox:
This rom can't be for ion, if you flash the kernel you get bootloops, that doesn't happen when the kernel is for the device. Maybe the build.prop has been changed.

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Wissam can you post the site where you found the link for the rom? Maybe there we can find instructions.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ceriqdesign:
If you check the build.prop it is for aoba (ion)..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] evilhedrox:
Build.prop can be easily changed. Maybe someone made customizations in the rom or something like this. The kernel in this rom isn't for the ion.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ceriqdesign:
Do you check it?how did you know it's not ion's kernel
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
I changed the build.prop..deleted the lines with symlinks and metadata assert ..then tried flashing via twrp ..flashed successful but bootlooped ..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] evilhedrox:
If it was for the ion it wouldn't cause bootloops.

I was wondering how I would go about updating the Remix I have installed to my hard drive.

Hi guys,

I need your help. I can't seem to keep notification toggles on the P8Lite, I literally have to activate apps such as "cool symbols" as they just won't stick to the notifications.

I've installed and activated the likes of notification toggle and power toggles" all of which are there for as long the screen stays on. I do have a feeling its a permissions issue and don't know how to ensure that these are kept on the notification panel.

Please assist, are they any working alternatives while we're at it?

Thanks a bunch.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] curious george:
Does anybody know where I can get a program that simulates the Back Button on many smartphone and some ppc devices. It is a "Go Back" aka "previous" aka "return" command that could be assigned. I would like to assign it using Hbutton to one of the buttons on my 8125.

I use to have a smartphone and now have a ppc. It is probably the button I used and missed the most. Easy to just go back a step if you made a wrong entry/selection etc, (kindof like the "up" command in file explorer, but different and a little more involved than the Alt-Tab for switching programs)... This would take me to the next level.

Thanks

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] levenum:
It's not that you are asking the wrong question, its that there is no answer...

You see all that 'back' button does is send the same code as 'Esc' key on your PC keyboard. (thats 0x27 if you are interested).

There are probably several utilities that can simulate this, but the problem is the whole OS and the apps designed for PPC are not made to take in to account the existence of a 'back' button so they just won't respond to it.

(Well maybe some will, but it will never work as smoothly as on smartphone and may have some undesired side effects).

I'm currently runnning TNT.1437 Touchflo with 10MB page pool.

After installing the rom, on first boot, you will have 43.91Mb of Main Memory and 22.71MB of free ram.

It is quite fast thanks to the increased page pool and is very stable. The only thing I can really find wrong with it, is that the notes application does not work but then again, I don't use it anyway so it really doesn't matter to me.

once you are in fastboot mode you can download and flash the fastboot file if your bootloader is unlocked.

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] voolandis:
Hi guys, I just got my Mi4c and I was wondering what mods can I do with it (install sMIUI). I am pretty scared about all this bootloader locking thing, and I am very unceirtan about firmware that came with the device. It was purchased in Hong Kong, and details are as follows:

Android version: 5.1.1 LMY47V

MIUI version: MIUI 7.0.4.0(LXKCNCI) Stable

Is it safe to flash, or will it lock BL?

Many thanks in advance
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ice-it:
sMiui will not lock your bootloader, it's safe...

Just flash TWRP and you're ready..
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] voolandis:
Do you know if this is already custom firmware or official one. I don't see too many of chinese apps on it, just the Mi & MIUI ones...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ice-it:
From build number it seems legit, but it's an old build...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] voolandis:
Strange.

I've checked: I have locked bootloader and no custom recovery, but I have root.

What are my next steps for flashing?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ice-it:
Read this discussion and follow the steps http://xdaforums.com/mi-4c/general/mi4c-flash-twrps-recovery-cms-row-t3307801

When you have TWRP up and running you can flash whatever you want...

But it's very strange that you have a locked bl with an old China stable ROM...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] voolandis:
Allright, just to clarify: bootloader wasn't locked after all. I managed to flash TWRP and gain root again after brick. Fastboot stable 7.1.6.0 ROM flashed via MiFlash, than run a .bat script for TWRP and flashed SuperSU.zip.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niannella:
I need some technical help as I have a really weird problem with my zenfone 2. A couple of weeks ago I bought some skype credit and made a phone call. For some ungodly reason right after this call there was a pin screen in place, with no warning or messages. I tried to put in several pin numbers as I thought it was a sim lock but nothing could get past the lock. I tried putting in 5 wrong codes in the hope to see a "forget password" button but nothing. I tried resetting the lock via google device manager and it says that it can't since a screenlock is present and will not reset the pin. I have even tried to get into recovery mode so that I can do a factory reset but at this stage I get an "error" here so this avenue is also blocked. I have even attached the phone via usb to the computer but the computer sees and empty hard disk. I have even tried to use adb to take a look inside, but this did not work either as the device is not seen. I have also tried rebooting in safe mode but the screen lock behaviour is just the same. . At the moment the wifi is also off so now google device manager can not locate the phone So at the moment I am out of ideas. I am now inclined to believe that my phone has been hijacked by some sort of new yet super sophisticated lockware/malware.

I have already accepted that all our family photos including the ones from our recent holiday are permanently gone for good with no chance in hell of recovering them.

Does anyone have any ideas to get around this annoying problem?

So what are my options? Is there any software that I can use to break this beasts back? Do you have any suggestions?

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KMAT:
Hello,

A friend of mine has a new S6 which is unlocked to work with any network/sim. The phone was working perfectly for a few months.

Now for some reason, it gives the message that no sim detected. Signal bars show up. But no connectivity.

The option in settings Select Network Operator is gone, and no longer there.

I have tried re-flashing stock 5.1.1 ROM and still the same problem. Tried flashing previous 2 modems and got the same error, so flashed back to current one.

Current Baseband: G920FXXU3QOKN

Kernel Version: 3.10.61-5896496 dpi@SWDD6217#1

Another thing to note is that the phone shows signal bars perfectly, even though there is the no sim message. Also, on removing and re-inserting the sim, it reads the sim and asks to reboot, after which it comes to the same situation.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brenner650:
IMEI was reset to 350000000006, then some Russian guy fixed it with Z3X box, SIM was able to register, but reception was awfull (lots of missed incoming calls, etc.). then I flashed some more fw and modem to check wheter it would fix dropping signal issues, and then it started not to recognize SIM.

So to sumarize, IMEI (with my EFS, not [MENTION=6836059]tazaga[/MENTION] one) is fine in the IMEI info, in SIM info everything is unknown, and mobile networks menu is missing from settings.

I changed SIM for a new one, just to be sure, and is detected only when inserted/removed, then phone wants to restart to enable mobile networks, but after restart, nothing changes.

Serial number was changed, but I corrected it in a file in EFS folder.

Beside that nothing changed, still no SIM and no mobile networks menu, and sadly couple hours later, phone went to a boot loop.

I took it to some 3dr party repair shop, without restoring original efs and bootable fw/kernel, they said they cannot repair it, but will give phone to some "software specialist" who may be (I seriously doubt it, according to my prevoius experience with 3rd party sw specialists (last time it took me half a day to reach the state phone was in when I deliverd it to them)) able to fix it with a 50-50% chance of fixing it.
