[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y0ppy:
i bought sony z5 dual e6683 mobile phone on amazon. when i received it, i found out that it holds a custom and harmful rom. thus, i decided to flash it with the original firmware.

in order to do so, i had to unlock the bootloader. that's what i did:

1. visited sony developer website and got my unlock code.

2. made sure that _enable usb debugging_, and _enable oem unlock_ are on in _developer options_.

3. i tried to get the device into _recovery mode_ by turning it off, and while holding the volume down button, i connected the device to the usb cable, which was attached to my computer on the other end. though after 10 tries, i understood that it is not working (maybe the one that installed the custom rom, tries to insure that the rom will not be replaced). thus, i decided to give it another try by executing

adb restart recovery

, but it didn't help, the phone only rebooted, and did not got into recovery mode. worth to mention that when i execute

adb devices

, my device appears in the list.

here is more information:

$ adb shell uname -a

1. does the kernel version, i.e.

BuildUser@BuildHost

, seems ok? (seems wierd to me)

2. where can i find the original\stock rom\firmware, and not build it myself?

3. how can i resolve the issue, and get into recovery mode to unlock the bootloader?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frostmore:
what is it you are trying to do?

if you want to flash a new FW from sony,u can use xperifirm to DL the FW you need and flash it using flash tool.

xperifirm: http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/pc-xperifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142

flashtool: http://www.flashtool.net/index.php

pay special attention to the model of your phone before DL and flashing your phone.

as for recovery,unless you have custm recovery installed,you cannot get into it.

http://www.xperiablog.net/2016/03/12/install-xperia-marshmallow-using-flashtool-and-xperifirm-guide/

It can flash a stock rom to your phone with locked bootloader. (you need to unlock it when flashing any custom kernel only)

and there's no stock recovery in all Xperia device. for more information, read this http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/noob-guide-to-sony-ericsson-xperia-t3209012

You said you're unlocking the bootloader, but why are you pressing volume down to boot into flash mode? You need to unlock it in fastboot mode, volume up.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dg_dex:
Hi guys,

I thought I did enough research into the whole HTC scene. It appears I got caught in a snag. I'll explain the steps below.

- I unlocked the bootloader by regestering a HTC dev account and pasting my key for the file.

- Flashed the file via ADB and Fastboot.

- Flashed TWRP via ADB.

- Flashed SU via TWRP install.

- Phone was stuck on HTC boot logo.

- Flashed stock recovery.img back.

- Phone stuck on HTC boot logo.

I was an idiot and assumed I had s-off after I unlocked the bootloader. I flashed SU via TWRP as I was trying to gain s-off via sunshine after realising what I did wrong. It was after flashing SU that my problems began. I'm now at my wits end with the damn thing. I've come from a galaxy s5. So this is all new to me. I'm really sorry for the noob mess I've caused here. If anyone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Ok, doen the above. Now when the phone is booting, I see the red message under the HTC log; This build is for developement purposes only. Whoop, it just booted. You are a life saver. Thank you very much. I have a quick question; would I be able to flash an unbranded stock rom over this o2 uk rom?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
yes .. you can flash about any rom you want .. I recommend LeeDroid
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dg_dex:
I did attempt to flash a rom before via twrp. But TWRP was unable to open the .zip. I tried side loading via ADV within TWRP too. Both install methods were unable to open package. The rom link was from XDA. So doubt the MD5 would of been corrupt. Seems that the HTC has a few steps more than Samsung in terms of flashing roms. I appreciate the help you've given me here.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
you can download the rom directly to your phone or copy it from your PC to your phone

then boot to recovery (TWRP) choose install and find the file you downloaded

swipe to install ... some roms like Leedroid have an Aroma installer that you have to go through and choose what to install and what not

The MD5 is a way to check if the file you downloaded is complete or not (Use an MD5 checker app)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Care to narrow that down a bit (thread title, of obfuscate the link)?

I suspect you are trying to flash a stock TWRP (nandroid) backup which is not flashed like a ROM. Rather, you need to unzip the files, place them in the proper place, and use the TWRP RESTORE function (not INSTALL). If it is as I suspect, you are ignoring the instructions in the thread you got the file from.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dg_dex:
You are correct. However, I did create the TWRP/Backup folder directories and placed all the files inside the .zip in the backup folder. TWRP couldn't see the files in restore. Did I do something wrong?

I'm basically wanting to flash to stock unbranded 6.0. I think that's the latest version for this HTC model. I did some looking around, but can't seem to find the ruu I'm looking for.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] superninja79:
Hello forum,

I am one of the unfortunates that didn't root my phone prior to downloading the Lollipop 5.1.1 update. So I found out no root due to bootloader lock down. I have three questions:

1. When will the marshmallow update hit for AT&T S5 (900A);

2. After upgrading to marshmallow will I be able to root again; and

3. If yes, which root method will work on my new marshmallow S5?

I truly appreciate all the help! Thank you!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] darthmalus:
With AT&T branded phones do not expect being able to root, or unlock your bootloader.... You would probably discover the lost city of Atlantis before that ever happens.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LoSt180:
I doubt any existing root method will work with 6.0, you'll have to wait for a new exploit to be found and released to the public. See this post in another thread:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJKai:
Fantastic work so far mate... would love to see this once you have completed it.

The image reso was low but im assuming that its due to only being a prototype but love where your heading, works great.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Slither2006:
Thanks DJKai,

Don't worry its well underway. I did a basic mockup of this prototype with the buttons for the music/photos/vids....and it worked great...i just have finish what I mentioned above plus also implement the "DownSlide" code so that the app minimize but not close the app....this way it'll prevent you seeing that annoying "Flash Player" title bar when it starts....if efrost is successful in getting the touch.dll to work with Hermes then you could launch it buy sliding your finger up and that would make it closer to the real thing.

Yeah sorry bout the low res....I had to take screenshots of Youtube to get those menu pics....if anyone has any better 240x320 bmps or pngs of them I'd be very interested...even if their just screenshots straight from a HTC Touch phone.

I'm at work right now so won't get a chance to code for another 5 hours.

BTW : Did you try enabling the Fullscreen option in the FlashPlayer ? Because upon opening the swf it will not open fullscreen.......yet.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJKai:
Yeh I ran it in full screen mode. :D

Ouch you had to resort to youtube for the pics... i'll see if I can find those images for you... may have of seen some around somewhere.

Hi Slither2006,

Your work looks great - it will be very nice to have something close to HTC Cube Launcher.

BTW, I was also thinking that Efrost's FTouchFlo Cab must be very complementory to your effort. I tested it today, and it works very well on my Hermes (Softbank X01HT Herm 200) - it is still running. If you need some help with testing on Hermes just le me know

Good Luck
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Slither2006:
Hi Marttin,

Thanks for the props! Yeah I will do my best to get at least the buttons finished as soon as possible. The contacts page will be the most challenging as I want to make a easy way to add and remove contacts with as little stylus action as possible.

You're absolutely right about efrosts TouchFlo efforts working on the Hermes and I agree that it could complement it very well!

I'll PM efrost later down the track once I have something decent to offer and see if we can assign the UpSlide motion to my flash app. I was also thinking the left and right slideMotion from the home screen could be assigned to different pages on the cube and open them accordingly....the latter could be tricky tho.

Just bought my shield tv...love it! The latest spmc supports voice search which is great. The problem lies when using it. When I do a voice search for a movie (the big lebow$ki) first a youtube trailer pops up, then info on the cast, then coen brother movies, then jeff bridges movies, etc,etc finally at the very bottom is my copy in spmc. Can I turn off all that other crap so it just shows my copy of the movie? Or at least make spmc the top choice instead of the bottom? I have notifications off for the following apps google play games, google play movies, google play music, live channels, netflix, youtube. According to the app options all the previous mentioned apps say I need to enable them so I believe I have them shutoff.

To summarize my understanding:

- if your phone has a working recovery, use adb sideload

- if your phone has an unlocked bootloader, use fastboot

- if your phone has a locked bootloader, and neither the rom nor recovery works, then it is hopeless.

G920TUVU3EPD1 Stock Deodexed Rom

This is 100% stock. Meaning there are NO mods. This is basically a "base" for anyone

to build a rom. I will not be updating this for any reason. I plan to build a Twisted

Sixx rom as I usually do.

I have removed all of Knox, Security warning, etc....the rom is pre-rooted and have included my STOCK MM kernel

which is set to permissive, and will inject root "systemless"......

All that I ask is IF you use ANY part of this for a base or whatever, is to give me credit in your

thread. Thats not asking for much. I did the hard part lol.......

In order to use this rom you MUST be on 6.0.1 bootloader/modem. Period. I'm not going to

post how to flash MM with Odin or flash TWRP. Thats on you.

This is NOT for the Edge......
