I'm actually not sure, just using sony's updater
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
If you have unlocked the bootloader then PCCompanion will not work.

Use flashtool to download the latest FTF file and flash that
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otaviomad:
the bootloader's still locked
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
How were you going to install cm then? That needs an unlocked boot.

You can still use flash tool to repair your phone though.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otaviomad:
no, the phone's ok, I'm staying with sony's firmware

the problem is, I can't update it with the sony software update on the cellphone, since when I press install it just boots into twrp and does nothing
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
For the third time

Use flashtool to download the latest FTF for your device and flash it.

Or, if you can access recovery just flash a pre-rooted .zip for your device

[Verizon LG V10] rustypie:
Hello Verizon V10 Community,

I was able to locate the full KDZ file for the Verizon V10 software version 11B, the latest available for the VS990. I personally have the V10 and it's already on 11B but I have a friend who just received his V10 in the mail today and it had 10B on it so I plugged his into my computer and the Verizon Upgrade Assistant downloaded the 11B KDZ. I have saved it, uploaded it and am making it available anyone who may need it.

You can download it from Android File Host here in a RAR archive: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911975083

Alternatively, you can download it directly from LG's servers here: http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FW25NOE3325BACQF4BA4K6T/VS99011B_04_ARB00.kdz

MD5 of KDZ file when downloaded from AFH (NOT the rar file): 7f971f72b81945ad1f06df56300b6bae

You will need to use LGUP to flash this KDZ, which you can download from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297690. After you have installed LGUP, you will need to extract the 'common' folder from the LGUP rar archive and put it in: C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model. (See attached screenshot) This 'common' folder contains the DLL file that is needed for LGUP to recognize the Verizon variant of the V10. There are other downloads of LGUP in other forums here in XDA which contain other installers in addition to the LGUP installer. The other installers install DLL files for other variants of the V10 which are not needed for the Verizon variant. The DLL I've included in the 'common' folder is all you need for our Verizon variant.

Enjoy :cool:

[Verizon LG V10] rustypie:
And reserved again. :o
[Verizon LG V10] 666syco:
How big is the file size?
[Verizon LG V10] rustypie:
The KDZ by itself is 2.2 GB. I'll have the link ready later today as my FTP upload to AFH that I had running this morning failed and I have to start over. :-\
[Verizon LG V10] 666syco:
Thank you brother downloading now.
[Verizon LG V10] burnsky05:
Same process I posted back in Jan about getting the .KDZ and the post to go along with it. I was unable to get the .KDZ file to flash to the phone. The version also had much userdata included in the file which is why I never released the file.

[Verizon LG V10] R4NDR01D:
LGUP isn't recognizing the KDZ file. It sees the TOT however. Any way to fix this?

EDIT: Just had to choose the Update radial instead of Refurbish.
[Verizon LG V10] tripey:
I believe upgrade is tot only and refurbish is kdz and tot. Or vice versa.

[Verizon LG V10] Hypnosis4U2NV:
Just going to throw this out there. No matter what KDZ file I download, I can't get passed the Google Account setup. There's data on that file that prevents the phone from going forward and constantly loops back to the beginning of entering the Google Account previously associated with the phone before the factory reset.

Lg v1o bootloop

Hi guys, I'm James and I live in mexico. I'm Argentinean. A month ago I bought the LG V10 and then use it normally, one day I restarted the phone all the time and now stays at the logo screen. I know it is operational, the software system. But I took my phone to a technician famous city where I live repair and told me not found support for the cellular putting on new software. You think you can help me? Please . If necessary I will do it myself. What I find something silly and illogical is that he has not found support for the LG V10. Sorry for my English if there are errors. Thank you.

This post works to solve my problem with the LG 10 VERIZON?

Lg v1o bootloop

This process solves my problem? I have a lg v10 vs990w and restarts all the time. It is software or hardware? I can fix it? please help!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ArtfulDodger:
This took me some hours this evening and a lot of trial and error but I was able to get it working. Note: if you are novice at playing with system files, don't bother to try this. It's not for the faint at heart. I can't provide support. You will also need Script Manger so you can fix permissions after placing the files. You must manually do all of this since we can't flash the zips! Make sure to Freeze the Sound Alive apk with TB also so there are no other music effects apps. Here's what I had to do:

1. Follow the instructions at this post first, extracting and placing files. Just don't reboot yet (thanks [MENTION=6773321]TiTiB[/MENTION]): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62365948&postcount=37

2. Download the two files mentioned here in this thread. You only need the audio policy script from the Lolliviper zip file to place in the system folder. Place the others from the ViPER4Android-supolicy.zip where needed: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/how-to-installing-viper4android-v4a-t3136025

3. Take the latest Viper apk and place it in the system/priv-app folder.

4. Remember, make sure set all the needed permissions as you go along for ALL files above or none of this will work!

5. Reboot.

6. Open the Viper app, select the driver you want. Reboot.

7. If using Poweramp, you may or may not see the MusicFX control button whether you have it selected in advanced settings or not. I did not see it but it made no difference. Open the Viper app, turn on the settings and start playing music. Voila, it works! Works on my speaker too. Apparently permissive kernel isn't essential to make this work and that is the beauty of all this., because you can not use SElinux mode app on this kernel as some of you may know.

Have fun and good luck, at least you might be able to do this in much shorter time than I did.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ArtfulDodger:
One other thing I have found. You must set the scripts in system/su.d to run on boot with script manager so Viper will run after each reboot.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bishop0114:
You can also get it to work by the following.

Install xposed

Install Wanam exposed module

In Wanam, under Security hacks

Disable Knox notification (I manually remove Knox)

Disable SEAndroid (changes to passive)

Install Viper4Android and update the driver
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ArtfulDodger:
I could not get Xposed installed after rooting, tried the latest apk, etc. I read on that thread Xposed has issues with stock LP Samsung ROMs so I just forgot about it. I could have tried placing the files in the flashable zip manually but it didn't seem worth the risk. I'm glad you got it going because that way sounds faster.
[AT&T LG G4] lunercrab:
Ok so I have currently a g3 that is pretty bad with signals so looking to upgrade...I don't want to spend a lot for the g5 until it drops in price in a year or so...so I was thinking of buying a used g4...I'm leary about the bootloop issues I've been seeing a large amount of people getting and since ill be buying a used phone idk if that'll factor with warranty...anyways I found one I want to buy and I asked the guy what the first few numbers were in the serial number and he said it was 589...that seems a bit high but I know most of the affected units were between 505-509...so do you guys think ill be safe with this phone? I really don't want to spend a lot of money on a potential paper weight...thanks in advance...
[AT&T LG G4] enzo ferraro:
Not sure how to read the numbers

My phone has been in the process of dying for the last month, despite my attempts to eliminate an app here and an app there. Saturday it just finally booted endlessly, and won't go any place beyond that.

I bought the phone at Best Buy on 9-3-15, so I guess it's one of the early production models, but I'm not sure of the numbering system. The box has a UPC code with a 6 at the left edge of the code, followed by 52810, then a small gap and the numbers 51648, and finally an 8 at the right edge of the bar code. I can't figure out whether my phone is a "652" or a "528." Maybe somebody can help out with this question.

Thanks, Enzo
[AT&T LG G4] enzo ferraro:
Well, since I posted on May 14, the LG G4 quit on me, and nothing but endless boots and more and more heat.

I *****ed to LG, providing the IMEI and the purchase date, etc., and they gave me an RMA. I shipped the phone via FedEx, as directed by LG, at a cost of approximately $20, to the repair facility in Ft. Worth, Texas.

The phone arrived at the repair facility two days ago, Monday morning, and I just got an email indicating that it was shipped back to me today.

No indication of whether it was repaired, or rejected because I regularly dropped it in the toilet and/or spilled coffee all over it, but maybe I'll find out in the next few days. (Actually, I treated the phone very gently, and even used a very grippy silicone cover to ensure I never dropped the thing.)

Since I feared LG would probably need weeks/months/years to get it turned around, I bought a new Samsung Galaxy Alpha from B&H Camera ($250) and a wireless charging device, and a glass screen protector. So at least if the dreaded boot loop syndrome recurs on the LG, maybe something will still be available to permit me to address the world via telephone from my hermit's cave. Enzo.

Email Today From LG--My Phone Headed For Long Beach

I received an email this morning indicating that my phone will be delivered sometime Saturday, May 28.

The email said "Defect: Power--No power with cable"

"Repair Results: Swap board (Main/RF) Others"

Not sure what all this means, but I guess it means they replaced the motherboard, and I'm not sure what else they may have done or not done.

I'll post further on the repairs and etc. next week after I get the phone up & running.

I am quite pleasantly surprised how fast the phone was handled by LG, inasmuch as it arrived in Ft. Worth on Monday, and they tossed it back to FedEx yesterday. Enzo.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDA Visitor:
Recently (a month ago) I upgraded from Android 5.0 (something) to the above NIGHTLY from Cyanogenmod, this was done via my Clockwork Mod recovery program after following all the prerequisites stated. The upgrade went thru without a hitch, or so I thought!!

I noticed that the Recovery program that I was left with after the initial upgrade was a very basic Cyanogenmod Recovery, with very few and basic options. The problems came to light when an OTA upgrade was attempted to a newer version of the same. The upgrade failed using the Updater giving an 'Error' in Cyanogenmod Recovery, the same result occurs even after trying a manual update.

I then tried using Odin and Heimdall to try and flash a different recovery program to replace the existing, still with no success. Getting errors like 'Failed to complete write' or 'Can't open USB or Serial Port'.

Even after reading and trying info in countless of threads in Forums etc. etc. I still have no result. So basically I'm stuck with a phone that I can't upgrade the software or install additional zipped Apps ... nothing!!

Also the system software is telling me that my phone is 'Rooted', but when I try and install APK's, like Titanium Backup for example, the program tells me that it won't work because the phone isn't rooted???

When it comes to Android techo stuff I have to admit that I'm an absolute noob, but I would really appreciate some layman terms help with this problem.

Appreciate it!!

Long story short, you will have to do the following :

You will have to flash an IsoRec recovery first, resize /system partition (optional), format /system /data and /cache and then install CM 13 and gapps (optional) manually.

Read this thread before you proceed:

[GUIDE][NOOB-FRIENDLY]Want to update to CM13? Read this first!

Make sure you've read the whole thread before you proceed!

Scroll down that link I posted till you see "If you forgot to flash Isorec Recovery when upgrading, this is what you can do:" This is what you need to do to fix your phone.

I personally prefer the Odin method.

Was wondering if anybody is using this device for VR and how is the experience? I have never used a VR headset but i would like to know what are some of the best/ most recommended headsets available. I've seen the Zeiss VR One headset but not really sure if there are any features or pros that would make this set a viable purchase over say a 15-40 dollar set off of amazon. Far as i know the only features any of them offer is adjusting focal length/distance? Nothing to spend an extra 60 bucks on. :confused:

PS: A large 5.7 QHD screen with stereo front facing speakers seemed perfect for VR hence one of the main reasons i decided to go with this phone over my other top picks. Might as well get the most out of the experience lol

Can the Gear VR games and software be used on other headsets
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] djsynth:
No the Gear VR only works with very certain Samsung handsets such as the Galaxy S6 and S7 Family of Devices. But there are other VR Headsets under the name of Google Cardboard all over amazon etc that will work with Android phones as long as that VR Headset supports a screen size that your phone has.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] s3rgioru3las:
The P2 from Dodo Case is a great starting VR Headset. It's currently at $18. I love it. As the market sits currently, there is no reason to purchase a $100+ VR Headset. The support is not all there, and the VR apps are just beginning to grow. I'd say purchase a cheap cardboard VR Headset so you can test it out, and later, once more support and more demanding applications are made, then purchase a real VR headset. It's been reported that Google themselves will create a more sophisticated VR Headset, and with LG's, HTC's, Sony's, Samsung's respective headsets, will create a hopefully amazing and demanding market for VR.

[X Style (Pure) Accessories] ronj75:
currently i use a homido. the adjustability is ok since you can swap the lenses out easilly for near/far sighted. the main difference between them function wise is some allow for pupillary distance and focal length adjustments *look for dials on the side and top* and optics. the zeiss headset has a very high quality optics set. but you can get by with a cheaper one with a few mods very easilly. *you may have to custom make a headband or padding so you can wear it continuousely.

An option i would look into is a bluetooth controller. can get one for a couple bucks and will save you a lot of headaches from having to take the phone out of the headset to start an app or something.

I got a WeAreVR headset from amazon! Can't expect Gear VR quality from a 30 dollar headset but it ain't to bad for an early experience. Not really sure of too many worthwhile VR experiences yet outside of the big money ones, but as a cheap headset for youtube videos occasionally it's not half bad.

[X Style (Pure) Accessories] timmtn:
Zeiss One plus.

Sorry to dredge up a slightly dead thread.. But..

Supposedly Zeiss are going to release a kit, which lets you connect the Zeiss VR One Plus to your computer, so the headset functions more as a Rift HMD, which will also allow compatibility with Steam VR.

This sounds pretty nice, since the VR One Plus, supposedly does not need any adjustments to lenses (I am constantly fidgeting with my 20€ china headset, and never getting a great image) and also the high resolution on the X-Style should make for decent sharpness.

And.. Supposedly a set with the VR One Plus and the connection kit, should cost about 150$, which isn't too bad, if it works.

Obviously still needs to be released, reviewed and available near me.. But I am a bit excited.

Question though.. The Seizz VR One Plus website, states that it works with phones up to 5.5", and the X-style/pure is 5,7".. It has a fairly small bezel, but still.. Anyone have any experience with this headset ?

Thank in advance.

(Edit.. What the hell.. 150$ in first article.. Next article states about 200€... That EU tax hits hard sometimes..)
