[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazzadhasan:
Hi, I was on my way to root my z5p Australian version, I repaired with PC companion that also updated to Android 6 I suppose. But after update, I wanted to use my old gmail ID that I use in my other phones; however, after putting id and password it was asking for the id I've created temporarily for z5p to put that was previously synced with z5p. Unfortunately, as it was temporarily created I can't recall anything. I tried google recovery option with no luck....:( can't even remember with id I used for recovery....:(

I've also reset it with flash tool guided through this forum, no luck....:( tried to unlock boot loader from sonymobile forum by installing Android sdk. But it's failing when I put the command with the unlock code...:(

Is there any way that I can root my z5p or at least I can get to the phone...? Thanks in advance.....
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJ72:
That doesn't make a great deal of sense - did you encrypt the storage before doing any of this? If you factory reset the phone then it should 'forget' all of the Google account association and be like an 'out of the box' phone again...?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazzadhasan:
Hi,

What do you mean by storage encryption...? I didn't do anything just updated the to Android 6 with Xperia companion. Since than I couldn't access to it without gmail account that i forgot. I read in one blog that from google has made a new security feature from Android 5 (google support for Android-one site). In that case, I've bricked my Z5P....:(

If none of you are able to help me, I need to through it away. I'm also ready to donate/pay for the service, if necessary. Thanks in advance.....
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazzadhasan:
Hi,

Just got an idea, if Android 5 and onwards have more robust security features; is it possible to downgrade to kitkat or less, then unlocking the bootloader for rooting....? How about that...?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJ72:
You won't be able to downgrade below 5.0 as that's what the device shipped with (I also doubt any devs are working on KK builds for the Z5P :) )

If you connect the device to your PC does it show within PC Companion? If so then try and wipe the device from there.

Can you take a picture of the screen you are presented with on boot as that should help.

[IMG="Z5P Gmail info after reset"]https://mega.nz/#!c9lRjRpD!8JQWyaqzEUj9wU7d5ic3MEO_zrfpTBhekwKCTmlPy6I[/IMG]

Yes, it is showing on PC companion and Xperia companion. However, I don't know how to wipe off. Please let me know. Thanks
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millicent:
The only way to continue past this is to "remember" the Google email (and password)
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJ72:
Hmm... the only wipe method using PC companion is the 'repair' option that will almost certainly still require the use of your credentials. Can you show me how far in to the system you can get? Do you have another device you can use to take a photo?

Edit: I imagine you have as you mention flashtool, but have you tried flashing a new FTF with all of the options along the right hand side ticked?

[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamalaggi:
I think it might be the my xperia theft protection. Google it for more information
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazzadhasan:
Yeah, it is. Google has introduced it from Android 5.0 and onwards. If it continues, some people like me has to chuck the android phones away....:(
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazzadhasan:
Just thinking, if I use a Different stock ROM other than AU, what would happen..!! Anyone have idea...?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJ72:
I don;t think moving to a different region ROM would change anything. I doubt it's the Xperia theft protection, more like Google's built in stuff.

Random-ass question, but have you actually contacted Sony support about it? I appreciate you're likely to get a faster answer out of us here at XDA, but so far our ideas haven't turned up much...

Likewise I wouldn't blatt the whole storage just to try and get in to the phone, if you can't install a ROM back on it you'll be more than buggered.

Is there any way to at least find the email address you used as your Google ID? Did you get an email confirmation to your other Google account which would at least tell you the email address?

EDIT: perhaps have a look at this page: Google Account Recovery
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashray_Vk:
If you don't mind losing data, download an Ftf for your phone and flash through flashtools. When that happens, I think you can wipe data. Thus making your phone look " out of the box"

Not sure if anyone has told this already, didn't read through the pages.

As per my knowledge, it should ask you if you want to create a new account or use an existing one, when the phone boots up.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazzadhasan:
Hi, just a quick question, what is a 'ftf'..? Yes, I did flash through flashtool with 4 things checked on the top right corner. After booting it asked me to sign in and I've signed in with a new gmail ID, well new in a sense that I used it with my old Samsung S2 4G, Sony tablet and so. After putting it through I got the notification in my iPhone gmail that my ID is used to sign in to Sony Xperia z5 premium...blah...blah....On the other hand, on z5p another screen came over which was asking to put my old temporary ID that I was created at the beginning; however, I forgot the ID. I've posted that picture at the beginning if you wanna look at it. Thanks
[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sazzadhasan:
Thank you so much for all those ideas, but nothing helped me. I think it is a good time to throw it away....:)

Ok if I do a flash of WM6 Vanilla everything works fine I can brows the web via wireless connections and whatnot, I then run a cab supplied by shotgun that is supposed to add the approprate connections for Cingulars MediaNet service in the US and the SMS stuff... Once I do that my internet browsing with wireless no longer works...

I'm new to all of this so I dont know if its something simple and stupid I'm missing but any help is appreciated.

I think I got it on my own, I just used the wap.cingular settings to setup a Media Net connection. That works and so does my WAN connections for browsing the web too. So I think I'm fine.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeekayy:
Hey everyone.

I'm running on completely Stock 5.1.1 OK1 on my Note 4 and just recieved the official MM OTA update last night. Due to my phone having a lot of junk and being laggy I decided to flash the official firmware from any external method to have a clean install of the os. I heard about Samsung Kies which makes a back up of your phone and installs the latest os, I installed and backed up my phone last night but it didn't seem to give me an update on the os, it said "This is the latest version" (5.1.1 COK1).

My main concern about this is. I've bought this phone from Pakistan (used phone but in brand new condition) and I'm currently living in Malaysia and I have no idea who was the previous owner of this phone. In Kies it shows the phone number different than what I have (maybe its the Sprint phone number?).

What if my carrier is locked by having a clean install? Or any sort of other related issue occurs.

Please take some time to enlighten the facts from your knowledge, will highly appreciate it.

Regards.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jglm4u:
If you're concerned about your phone or sim getting lock..you can just use galaxy tools apk v3.1.5 & then upgrade the apk to v3.1.8 & it will unlocked it for you... but i doubt it will lock you down... maybe you can just try to back your rom completely & restore if any issues encounter (:
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zincbros:
it's dependent on the way that they unlocked the phone, someone in vietnam has been locked after updated the phone, but my phone was not.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeekayy:
And I have no idea how my phone was unlocked, I just bought it like this. I can see the Sprint phone number on Samsung Kies maybe I should write an email to Sprint asking them to unlock it using that Sprint phone number?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popesko:
Hi all,

I am getting very worried with this LG g4.

Last December I had a big issue where I was taking pictures and saving in my sd card, and when the card got a bit full(not totally) all photos taken from a certain point in time were corrupted (normal size but no thumbnail and I could not open them anywhere), as conclusion, could copy existing, could not delete with external software, or in any other day.

End up complaining to amazon and they have sent me a new 64sd card, this time from Samsung.

So far so good, until yesterday where I took some pics and realised the last ones were not appearing as thumbnails. My thought: the same issue again. Decided to restart phone...

Error no sd card can be mounted, it is corrupted!!

Restarted again, tried on another phone, still corrupted. I cant open or see any data from it. It says I have to format?

I don't know if I will lose all my data, and I am thinking about presenting a formal complaint to LG. It must be the phone!??

Anyone with the same issue?

Thanks Tiago
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tabp0le:
It might be your phone or just a couple bad SD cards. I had an issue with the SD card they provided with the promotion, but it was a different issue. There was no data loss. It just prevented writing to the SD or deleting. I had no problem copying files off the card. Since my 1st SD card, I bought a SanDisk Extreme 64GB. It has worked flawlessly for months.

Hi.. As of now I'm using official Cyanogen Mod 13, I don't want some inbuilt apps like Email, AudioFX (because of V4A),Default keyboard and etc.. Its easy to remove manually yet so frustrating after a nightly update (which comes daily) and restores everything. I had Xperia M before Moto G3, and used a bloatkiller.zip to remove unwanted apps.. I've EDITED that one for Moto G3 but it's NOT WORKING. I've attached the edited archive file here.

P.S: I've only edited the updater script. I don't know whether I need to do some other changes or not.

i noticed that after dropping my Z5 in water or even try to clean it with some water , I keep getting the headphones connected

and headphones disconnected notification .

after that I need to make sure that head phones port is dry and try connecting and disconnecting my headphones several times

to fix the problem

I wonder if other Z5 user have same problem ? and if that's normal ?

What is everyone's performance on GTA San Andreas and Minecraft? For me, Minecraft runs better on the Nexus 6 and GTA San Andreas, while running a lot better than the Nexus 6, crashes after about a minute of gameplay.

I have read that some people experience the same issues, although very few. Even the Messenger basketball game stutters. It ran like this even as soon as it was taken out of the box a couple of days ago, and still nothing has changed. Has anyone else experienced these issues??

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] magicstick5:
My sprint s7 just received an update that improves gaming. The game doesn't crash at max anymore, bit still lags due to Rock star's horrible optimization.

Weirdly, the HTC One M9 from 2015 runs the game smooth at max. After calculations, I've found that resolution is the problem. The S7 has a resolution on 2560*1440, while the m9 remains at 1920*1080. When pulling everything, including res to max, it lags. To fix this, keep all else at max except for resolution (keep it at 75%, 3/4 off 2560*1440, also known as 1920*1080, what the m9 has. The game is smoother than the m9 now due to the 820's improved gaming, but as known to all chipsets playing GTA: SA, slight frame drops still occur due to a lack of optimization from Rockstar's side. But it does help tremendously.

Beerify is an app that lets you find and report beer prices. That simple.

I created this app because I was always looking for places to go have a beer but it was difficult to see their beer selection and the price for each one. This app attempts to solve this "problem".

Additionally its great for when you travel around the US since you might not know the prices in bars around you or even where bars may be.

There's a 30 sec video in youtube or in the fb page explaining how it works, its pretty intuitive anyway.

I would love to hear comments or feedback on the app since it's my first one.

Can someone help

Thanks
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taha.ineflass:
hi

in my opinion you should check your router or your access point wifi technology

because the moto g 2015 support only 802.11 b/g/n (2.4GHz)

what i mean is if your wifi router work with 802.11 a or 802.11 ac that mean is not comprehensive with your device that if your connected to it the first time

if not that mean your update doesn't work correctly
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] Frankie_Xenon:
So recently I've rooted my galaxy s5 tmobile sm-g900t and install viper4andriod. I have Busybox installed through google play and installed on both my xu and system folder. I also made sure there was enough space. Around 30mb of space. I then installed SeLinuxMode Changer and Universal init.d so that i can force the SeLinixmode changer to stay on permissive. There is a bug where restarting and exiting out the app would reset SeLinux mode you have selected. Now that that SeLinusMode restarts on permissive, i was able to install Viper4Andriod. I then continued and installed the driver, but after installation, i checked to see if anything changed in the sound. Nothing changed so i checked the driver status. It turns out to be Abnormal and unsupported. I'm running 2.3.40, and have also tried the latest version of Viper4Andriod, but both doesn't seem to work. I have stock touchwiz rom and completely disabled and removed Knox. I checked my root with Root Checker, and it passed. But for some reason going into recovery mode, it asks me to install supersu because it was missing. But at the same time, i am running PhilzTouch, which is outdated. I have tried other methods, but it doesn't seem to work. I just need to get pass the driver status problem.

If anyone know the solution to this, I'd very much appreciate it if you help us all out.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
Same for me : with 6.0.1 rooted, the driver was unsupported.

What worked for me was to install viper4android from the play store, as the 2.3.4.0 version has better sound (in my own opinion) than the 2.4.0.1 that can be found elsewhere. After installing the driver in high quality, it showed as unsupported.

I had to flash two additional files that you can find here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52106530&postcount=609 : Viper4A-[Build.Prop-Tweaks]-CWM.zip and Viper4A-[Soundfix-LibFiles]-CWM.zip. I am no expert, and probably only the second file is required but I flashed both and it just worked.

Also, you don't need a SElinux permissive kernel. You can simply flash the file linked here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=61242973#post61242973, and it will patch your system. As long as you have supersu installed, you will be able to use viper4android in enforcing.

For full steps, you can also have a look at maximumentropy post here :

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
Well I am sure that it works both for SM-G900F on 5.0 and 6.0.1 roms. The best for you is to make a backup of your system before trying. As it only impacts the system and not the kernel, it should work whether it is g900f or g900t...

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
Is your kernel still permissive? If not you can also try to flash the supolicy fix.

You can also try to remove completly the viper4android app and reinstall it.

Lastly there are some identified issues with some supersu versions. I am sure that the driver installation works with supersu 2.52 (my main one when I was on lollipop) and 2.68 (the one I use on marshmallow). Changing your supersu to 2.52 could perhaps help you. This is identified in the main viper4android thread here "If you see V4A installation pop-up loop, its probably due to incomplete root."
