[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Hubert85:
Yesterday I did that on my E2303, that has bootloader that can be unlocked (but is not) and it went fine. Phone is working, calling is possible, music plays. A few comments and questions:

1. Why do I have to instal flashtool and TWRP? I just followed those and it was enough:

What does flashtool and TWRP do/change?

Here is a video which show the process (insert www manually because I can post links yet)

Good idea before rooting - do the backup, you can do that through adb

Does anyone have a *working* download link for the RootKit? Every link I've tried in this thread & others are now dead.

UPDATE: I eventually found a version of the RootKit for download here:

rootkitXperia_E23xx_26.1.X.3.xxx

MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.

(see thread here)

However, I'm unable to get my Windows 11 (or Linux Mint) laptop to recognise the Xperia M4 even though I believe I've installed the required drivers correctly (in Win11 'test mode').

And I can't get the Xperia M4 into fastboot or flashboot mode. If I power-off, hold down Volume-Down & plug-in the USB cable it starts & shows me the large battery icon with charging lightning bolt which disappears after a few seconds. Volume-up doesn't work either & there's definitely no blue-LED either (my Xperia M4 is bootloader NOT unlockable).

At no time is the device recognised by Win11 & DeviceManager never shows any Xperia device connected.

Anybody got any idea why?

Remote Connection Software

You can try MyMobile. It software that runs on your PC and you can bring up the screen and use you mouse as a stylus. It works great. The only drawback I found is when you use it and a bluetooth headset, the headset sounds garbled. You also need to establish an Active Sync connection with the PPC and the PC.

Just goto www.mymobiler.com to download it.

So I got a S5 from Verizon sitting here, would love to install a clean 6.0x rom. Just to ditch the touchwiz and clear up some bloat. I'm fairly noobish on this, is there a good guide to follow? What rom should I use? This would be for my wives phone so once it's flashed it needs to not be jacked up. She complains that her phone get slow and needs a factory reset every once in a while. Hoping this would put a stop to this.

Hi guys, new to my Nexus 6P and I've been out of the scene a few years due to Verizon and Samsung... I have my phone rooted and am running Pure Nexus and EX Kernel. Since I didn't have the phone stock for very long, I'm not sure if my issue is with GOSMS, the ROM, Google Fi... But, I cannot send or receive anything MMS. Pictures, group messages, all cannot be downloaded. I've tried a setting or two in gosms that deal with sending MMS and MMS on t-mobile, but I'm getting nowhere. I thought maybe someone on here had a similar issue or ideas. Thanks in advance!

Everything works well except the newest app of DeezerPremium.

It doesn`t start playing any song. Just loading icon appears. Only the 4.6.0.8[214] Working fine for me, but that version is kind of old.

The newest 5.3.0.133[705] Doesn`t play out songs. Any one with the same problem?

Every other Streaming app working great.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techboydino:
Hello all,

been trolling the Shield threads since I picked one up last week and have to say I would have thought there would be more activity here. That being said my hats off to those contributing. I do have a few questions that I cannot seem to answer by looking through the posts and searching. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Game On.

Shield K1

MM 6.0

Shield V1.1

1. Root/Recovery. Very confusing on what to use for recovery on the K1. It sounds almost like it's hit and miss. Is it recommended to use 2.8.7.0, 2.8.7.1, or 3.0.0.0 with MM. People seem to be getting hosed up after unlocking bootloader and flashing these recoveries. Has anyone recently does this and which one successfully? Mainly interested in some root apps and killing off the misc battery drain.

2. Not really interested in ROM all that much but interested in using my PS3 controller which I saw someone had a kernel setup for. Anyone successfully setup a PS3 controller?

3. Which combo charger/cable are you using to NOT have touchscreen issues while charging. I'll be out of town for a few months and will use this with HDMI while charging for entertainment purposes.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5067076:
1. For TWRP I use this one: http://xdaforums.com/shield-tablet/development/wip-twrp-2-8-0-1-unofficial-t2877117 . It works but have issues with touch. You can use the experimental one from here: http://nvidiashieldzone.com/shield-tablet/shield-tablet-k1/root-shield-tablet-v1-marshmallow-2/ That works perfectly.

For Root use the latest beta available here: http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133 It will try to install in systemless mode. When installing it through TWRP look with it detects as systemless mode, because in my Moto X Style I had to force it and it installed in system mode which caused bootloop.

2. Tried the DS4 and DS3 through USB and it works fine. Without wires I only have a solution for DS4 here: http://xdaforums.com/shield-tablet/general/using-ds4-nvidia-shield-root-t3282579

3. I bought this one as suggest in another tread: https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B00YON0WI4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . It works without any lag when charging. Using it with this OTG cable: http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00EJP5XR2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 so I can charge the tablet and use the controller wired. Just need to plug out and plug in until the tablet recognizes that it's charging.

Works with HDMI as well and right now I'm using a gigabit adapter with a USB HUB so I can have it all connected the same time. Great for playing in the living room via Gamestream.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techboydino:
Followed the instructions on that site and all went well. Used the specified TWRP (with touch issues) as read only but the later version of supersu which was not an issue. initially could not get to recovery but after flashing then direct boot into twrp it worked. after reboot i was also able to adb to recovery just fine. thanks for the help.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexBardosch:
Hello there.

Since updating to MM I have the following issue on my Z5: When inserting headphones or an aux cable, the phone switches back and forth between headphones and speaker for a couple of seconds, before finally settling on headphones and playing as it should. This is a problem because I have a Tasker task that relies on headphone detection and now it doesn't work properly.

I had the issue with the small apps after upgrading, so I already did a system reset, which solved the small apps issue, but not the headphones issue.

Already tried disabling SmartConnect and booting in SafeMode. No luck.

There is apparently another person with this issue on the Sony forums, so I'm not the only one.

Anyone know a solution?

Cheers,

Alex
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunterfred:
I have the same issue, but only with the aux cable. When I connect my earphone, everything seems to be fine. So I think maybe the phone has some issue with one particular model of aux input? because there are several type of aux plug now.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperia z3:
im still on lollipop but i had the same issue a couple times were i have headphones plugged in and the speaker would be playing music at the sametime too. kinda wierd so i just restarted my phone and it was fine after that.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danw_oz:
I have had this problem with other Z series phones but not the Z5 yet.

As reported above my phone when I plug just headphones stereo only (two contact plug) into the phone gives me an ear icon for headphone optimisation and with an automatic headphones actions.

If I plug a headset in (three contact plug) I get additional headset options, plus automatic headset actions.

My guess is you have a conflict with the Sony built in functionality and the Takser task you mention.

[MENTION=6068386]xperia z3[/MENTION] I have only had this happen previously if my headphone hadn't fully located in the headphones jack
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeramanX:
So, how can this be fixed?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danw_oz:
my guess would be try to disable any apps trying to hijack the sonys built in process and see if that fixes the issue
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexBardosch:
I have done a system repair through PC Companion and the problem is still there, on a fresh setup, with no 3rd party apps. I'll wait a while to see if there's an update that might fix this, if not I'll have to send the phone in. Luckily I bought it in late December, so I have still time to use my warranty.

Edit: Oh, and the issue with the small apps is still there, I have found out that it's caused by active accessibility settings, in my case tasker, but others have that same problem with other apps.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ecnahc:
i'm dealing with the same exact thing. i did a factory reset, and it still persists. at first i thought it was hardware, then i installed soundabout. when i force output through wired headset they work fine leading me to believe this is software related. really frustrating, not sure what else to do.

This is the first time i use a custom kernel on this device, so am not aware about de settings i can change.

So far, after 24Hrs use with default settings on my daily rom i didn't notice any problem.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeowDude:
Look, if like to start by saying I couldn't find the question section in tapatalk, and this seemed the most appropriate section to post in (move to correct one if necessary)

Anyway, my question:

I was wondering if it's possible to build either android honeycomb or tablet UI ICS (stock of course) for this kindle fire. I know that it seems weird to go back word in android versions, but honeycomb is my favorite and I wouldn't be able to build it as I don't have a Linux PC, and I'm having a surprising amount of trouble getting virtual box to work on my PC. (Yes, I'm using the correct cup architecture and have all required files) any feedback is welcome!

Edit: any way to edit the title? I didn't catch the typo... (Yet another reason to proof read)
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster1612:
This would likely be better suited in the KFHD 8.9" Q&A forum. That being said, there will be significant work involved with porting. Honeycomb on these kindles would be like porting Windows 95 to run on a modern-day laptop. It might work, but it's unlikely. You'd have to spend a lot of time backporting Amazon's proprietary drivers (or even open source libraries, if such are still supported for older Android versions), and those are likely built with 4.0 in mind. Additionally, the underlying Android Honeycomb source code may not have critical components needed for proper operation on more recent devices like these. (It's worth noting that Amazon's stock firmware is based on ICS, so a large part of that work would likely be done already if you're porting that Android base.) Finally, I'd advise against porting older Android versions because they're not maintained or supported anymore by Google, so any compromising bugs or security holes (like the recent Stagefright issues) will not have been backported to those unsupported releases.

If you're still set on porting ICS, I haven't found any stock 4.0 build makefiles for the HD 8.9 on GitHub. You could use an unofficial prebuilt CM10.1 or CM10.2 ROM (look in the 8.9 development forum and use Xposed modules to modify the UI to tablet mode. I know of one Xposed module that backports tablet UI to JB ROMs, and it still works on KitKat/CM11. Those mods would save you a lot of time, as you wouldn't need to compile or backport older releases. If you want an up-to-date CM11 ROM to use the mods on, you'd need to compile with those sources (they're on GH here). If you're still having trouble, I'd be willing to compile CM11 for you.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeowDude:
Thanks for the feedback, my heart is indeed set on back porting honeycomb, I'll try later and see how it works out. I'm gonna have to research the recent stage fright bug (haven't heard of it). I figured I could just build android 3.2 from AOSP, set up the necessary drivers, and flash it. Even if that's not an option, I'll just try to build Stock ICS. I just like the older holo UI, and ICS and especially Honeycomb have it.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster1612:
If the holo UI is all you're interested in, you can use any recent ROM and this Xposed mod called Holo Themer that forces all apps that it can to fall back to the holo UI interface. Also, if you're running KitKat or below (CM11), you can use TabletKat, another Xposed mod to bring back the legacy tablet UI from Honeycomb/ICS.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeowDude:
Sounds good, I'll check it out. On a side note, do you think it would be possible, after modifying the system UI, and all the system apps (framework.res,etc.,etc.) one could turn the stock Amazon OS into stock AOSP-like ICS? Just wondering, because it seems like every custom rom I find has some big I just can't stand (aside from the other ones) either it's too slow, no he youtube, the lock screen doesn't rotate, etc. while I've never had any problem with stock Amazon OS. (Other then that the may bar placement/UI/keyboard suck, but that's easily fixable).
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster1612:
It could be possible, but considering all the significant modifications Amazon made to the OS, it would most likely be a long, complex process. There may be xposed mods available to try to tweak the stock UI, and you could try to replace all the stock apps in the stock ROM with their AOSP counterparts, but there's always the risk of bootlooping the OS if you make modifications it doesn't agree with. I think you'd be better off using CM11 or a prebuilt custom ROM instead of trying to reverse engineer Amazon's source to reconcile it with AOSP.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeowDude:
I'm gonna try to work on that, there's no way I'm the only one who's thought to want the stock UI---interesting thing I found in the systemUI.apk, I found all the stock AOSP icons in SystemUI.zip/res/drawablehdpi even the tablet UI icons, which really through me off. Also, almost all the Amazon OS icons were in SystemUI.zip/res/drawable-- my idea, do some crazy xml/png editing, and get the stock UI I'm looking for. Your thoughts?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeowDude:
Do have a list of these modules? I've set up xposed framework on mine, but I'm having trouble finding modules meant for kindles, and I don't want to be constantly playing the "trial and wait 10min to restore my compressed TWRP backup" game.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeowDude:
I just figured out why it wasn't letting me send that last post...
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster1612:
You could do that, but I think it'd be easier to copy/paste icons from an AOSP/CM9 ROM. (CM9 is the corresponding version for AOSP 4.0.3, which is still ICS.)

I haven't tried out the xposed framework on Amazon's stock OS, so I think you'll have to play with trial and error. However, you won't need to mess around with restoring TWRP backups - all you need to do to disable the framework is simply run touch disabled from the TWRP terminal in the /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/ folder. Then reboot, uncheck the problematic mod in the Xposed Installer, delete that disabled file, and reboot to re-enable the framework.
