Hello, i flashed the ROM but it hard bricked my phone. Now the screen is black, i can't even see the logo and the bootloader. And when i plug the phone in the pc the folders "internal storage" and "SD card" are written in chinese. Does someone knows if it's possible to bring it back to life? Thanks in advance
[ZenFone 2 Android Development] montenell:

[T-Mobile LG G4] jfatica:
Okay, tried to recalibrate the proximity sensor by accessing the secret menu through the dialer and selecting Device Test / MT and the device was supposedly rebooting into miniOS. Well it just hung at the initial LG Life's Good screen.

I am rooted with TWRP installed, Xposed and a few modules. Tried multiple reboots, nothing, phone just hangs there at the initial screen. I was able to reboot into recovery (TWRP) and wipe everything, no changes, reinstalled the 20i image, no changes. I can enter recovery and play with twrp, and I can get into download mode, but i cannot boot system.

So I downloaded the KDZ and tried the LG lg flash tool. IT gets to 9% and gives an error and prompts me to retry, multiple times. Can't seem to get it to successfully flash the kdz.

What am I missing here?

Does anyone else have a problem with touchscreen sensitivity? Idk what it is about this phone. The lag wouldn't bother me if it weren't for this. It seems like whenever I scroll I'm accidentally clicking on and touching things I didn't mean to. Its the biggest problem I have, on stock and CM.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikola Jovanovic:
Sometimes I get really pissed off but I wouldn't say it's the big problem. You get used to it
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carnivalrejectq:
Ahh, so I'm not the only one? This phone has a horrible touch screen.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Murf.:
Yes, I do. I'm used to my LG G Stylo I guess (and all other phones I have had). When you touch the screen it always assumes you want to tap and does not give you a chance to slide your finger. I'd say at least 50% of the time when I want to slide it jumps to the conclusion I want to tap! So it takes twice as long to doing anything because I always have to go back and try to get it right the 2nd time. Does anyone know of a technique with this phone to execute a slide the 1st time? Thanks.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carnivalrejectq:
Yea that's a good way of a explaining it. That's exactly what my phone does, although I just realized the other day that my glass screen protector may be part of the issue so I took it off to see if it helps.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DallasCZ:
have no problem with this. (6045Y).
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Murf.:
It is really bad on the YouTube app. You have to be very selective on the screen where you touch to start the slide or it will start video instead of scrolling the page. They really need a setting with for millisecond delay for it to wait for a "slide" before it assumes a "tap".

Is there anywhere where you can make update suggestions to Alcatel?

UPDATE: I asked about this and made suggestion for setting here: https://www.alcatelonetouch.us/contact
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Murf.:
Here is the response I got back from Alcatel support:

"Thank you for contacting Alcatel. It is a pleasure being able to assist you, I see here that your devices response is moving and reacting faster than it should as if it had a mind of its own. Have you modified your operating system at all? The touch panel sensitivity is not an option or something that can be adjusted through the settings.

Let's begin with technical troubleshooting by clearing the cache partition:

Turn off the phone and while it is off press Vol(+) and the power button until it is completely on. You will get a screen showing a triangle and an exclamation mark, scroll down with the volume keys to wipe cache partition and select it with the power button of your phone. Next, you will see the process wiping, formatting, complete. Once complete reboot system now using same button.

I look forward to your response and hope this is the result for your device."

I don't know how this could possible fix the issue, but oddly enough my impression is that it appears to have corrected it. I will need to test it some more, but my main culprits where Facebook (via the Hermit app) and YouTube app. I also tried several other apps. So far, so good. You might give it a try. I does not delete data or apps - only deletes temporary system used files. Google "Android wipe cache partition" and read what it does for more info. Good luck.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikola Jovanovic:
I don't think it's the problem, but what I would call it as the issue of this device. In my usage I like it to be responsive to my touches, sometimes I accidentally press the screen when I wanted to slide as you mentioned, but it happens to me on other devices to. I would also give some credit for this manifestation to you screen protector. I'm using the mate protector and it gives nice touch feeling over the screen on a minor cost of screen clarity and purity.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Murf.:
I have always had LG phones prior to this and never had this issue and I had plastic screen protectors on them. I have a tempered glass protector on this one. On this phone, I have to start the slide in the air before I touch the screen so the slide is in effect as I land on the screen in order for it to record as a slide and not a tap. Furthermore, on the YouTube app I have to make sure where I land on the screen even then. If you land on the video or near it, it will play the video instead of scrolling up. So far since the cache wipe, I don't seem to be experiencing the problem. As I side note, I just got the phone new a week ago and this is my 1st cache wipe.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
Approximately one month ago, I sent my phone in to Sony for repair service. The top speaker was not functioning properly. They fixed the speaker, but also updated my phone to Lollipop which caused me to lose root access. I've been rooting my phones since I first discovered it in 2010. I originally planned to immediately re-root my phone, but remembered that I can finally have access to Android Pay by keeping the device as-is. So, I decided to keep the phone without root and here's what I've discovered a month later:

The first week was the hardest - I forgot just how many of the tweaks I use required root access. This week was a rude awakening for me as I searched endlessly for alternative non-root methods to tweak my device. But almost every search resulted in either no results, or methods that simply didn't work. The toughest part was being re-introduced to that annoying Mobile Radio Active bug the still plagues Lollipop builds and not being able to fix it using the well-known root method.

After going through the 5 stages of grief, I finally accepted that there was only so much I could do with my device without root access and became at piece with my new root-less lifestyle. I noticed that my device felt just a bit more responsive without 30 Xposed modules installed. It was also somewhat freeing to know that I didn't have to keep trolling the xda forums every day to see if there was a new mod that someone developed that I could try. I've also been introduced to a number of apps in the Play Store that I otherwise would have overlooked. Since I can't tweak any of the system files of my phone, I have compensated by downloading new launchers, icon packs, and widgets to help satisfy my cravings to tweak.

Now that a month has passed, I think I'm willing to continue without root a little while longer. I do miss my xloud speaker mod, my camera mod, my system UI mods, and my brighter flashlight mod. But I've managed to survive just fine without them so far. Unfortunately though, the main reason for not rooting my device this time around (Android Pay) is the one feature I haven't used once since I got my phone repaired! The only times I really spend money is either at the local grocery store (they only accept physical cards), or at the gas pump (same thing). I don't frequent places such as walgreens, mcdonalds, or Panera Bread enough to take advantage of Android Pay as much as I originally hoped. It kinda sucks to finally have access to such an easy way to pay (chip cards SUCK) and not actually use it. lol

So there you have it, my story of being without root. Could you do it? Have you tried it?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Breedt:
Did you allready sign up with the AR? :D

I for myself could not life without root, cause all the bloating stuff would made me crazy. I want my rom as small as possible. Once I've found a very good and stable Rom I just went cold turkey from XDA, and coming only back when there's a major update. Then the whole process of finding the best rom (install, reflash, bootloops, flashing, bootloops, flashing etc begins again. But when there is the final small rom working like a charm I dissapear again...

I love Sony's design, but thinking of getting me a Nexus when I'm upgrading for a new phone next year. Allways first new updates, little bloatweare and easy to root etc.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Revontheus:
I can't imagine my Z3C without root, stock UI and everything is so simple without the Xposed mods and all the other tweaks
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] flipside101:
Been running without root since I joined the original concept and the only thing I miss is the ability to add reboot and use titanium backup
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Juampo-CHILE:
this is my first smarthphone that I dont root. Before I had a Xperia S and a Xperia T2 Ultra. My Z3C has been running really good, so I dont feel the need to root it
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Dark Emotion:
Same here, I had Galaxy S II and Nexus 4 before Z3c. I had to root both phones and play with custom kernels to get better battery life and fix problems that manufacturers didn't. Z3c just works.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] caiquejd:
I can't use my phones without root because of one reason: skip music tracks with volume buttons. This is the most important module functionality for me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] The Transporter:
Adaway is the only reason I root :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
In app adds don't bother me that much. They're usually just a small, unobtrusive banner at the bottom of the screen. However, browser based add (especially on mobile sites) are the worst! They make the webpage take 2-3 times as long to load and sometimes, the adds consume the entire screen. Fortunately, AdBlock browser has been a great non-root solution for me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Dark Emotion:
Guys, try NoChromo browser, it removes all ads from the web pages. You can get it here on XDA: http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/app-nochromo-wild-browser-appears-t3130776

It is just like normal Chrome browser but without annoying ads.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Jomar Vazquez:
I've used my phone without root since Marshmallow Concept, then updated to official Marshmallow and the only thing I missed from rooting was Adaway and Xposed with GravityBox (to modify the timeout of annoying heads up notifications).

I was only waiting for a custom MM rom to appear for Z3C, that's why I remained totally stock, now I'm happy with SliMM :D
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] heynando:
This is extremely subjective. I can't live without root, it would consume me little by little from the inside. Not being fully satisfied by the experience provided by my phone would definitely sadden me day by day until the point I would get a different one. It's very known that most human minds do have a tendency to accept the unacceptable after a while though. Personally Android Pay is not a feature I would exchange for 30 other features/customizations offered by root access.

bottomline: I'm not a tiny bit eager to go back to an experience without root access simply because it is too good to be taken away from me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] poobucket:
Couldn't have said it better myself. Using the hosts file to block ads is so effective and clean.:)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] duke_dreadmoore:
I think xposed doesnt ruin battery life at all. Btw, the reason i root is Titanium and adaway.. i often change my phone, so Titanium is a lifesaver!
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] chris5s:
I was on the Concept program and lived without root for some months, the first time in many years I had done so.

However now that official MM is out and is rootable, I've ditched concept and made my own pre-rooted version of MM. The ability to tweak system processes and remove bloatware/unwanted system apps is a must for me!
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] ed_bracam:
I was without root during Marshmallow Concept (4 months about), with benefit to get monthly updates...

Since I came back to beta I decided to root again for the following reasons:

- Adaway application first !!!!

- Never lose data with full backups of applications

- Viper4Android sound mod
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
***Update***

Well, it's been approximately 3 months since I've opted NOT to root my device and I must say that I'm starting to crave that rooted goodness once again. Here's what I miss most:

- Increased speaker volume

- Increased flashlight brightness

- Hardware shortcut to turn on flashlight

- General system UI tweaks

But, I'm trying to stay strong and stay stock as long as possible. Despite the rare usage of Android Pay, I do enjoy how much safer it is vs swiping a physical card, and its a heck of a lot faster than inserting those stupid chip cards. WIsh me luck.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] pascalthebest:
I buy z3c yesterday i came from Nexus 5 . My z3c 5803 has mm official . A guide update to all in One root recovery ?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Lazer72:
You can increase the flash brightness? Is that even possible? How?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
The device has to be rooted and you simply edit the build.prop files. There is a thread in the cross-device development section that walks you through it.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
UPDATE (6 Months Later)

Okay, it's official... I can't take it anymore! :mad: I NEED ROOT! The increased security of Android Pay does not offset the sheer convenience of what Root can do. I miss the flashlight being activated by the volume down button. I miss having louder speakers. I miss having both speakers during speaker phone calls. I miss Amplify and Xposed!

As soon as I get a few hours free from distractions, I'm rooting and coming back to the dark side! (or is it the light?)

EDIT:

Rooted and booted baby! :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] petr232:
Haha I remember reading your thread few months ago when I was deciding if I should root or not and you helped convince me to stay unrooted. But as I kept using my phone there were more and more things I wanted to change, and when [MENTION=4688377]russel5[/MENTION] posted the new way to root 575, I finally decided that I should at least try it when it's so easy (I was on Concept by then).

The main reason was to debloat the official MM so I can switch from Concept, then I really wanted adblocker (but didn't want to run VPN) and option to back up game saves (cloud saves aren't very reliable). Besides that I'm using Xposed (Amplify, ForceDoze, HideEmergencyButton, XLED), brighter flash, custom boot animation, CF Lumen and few little tweaks here and there (build.prop etc...).
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
Haha! That's exactly what I was afraid of when I first created this thread. Tweaking is ADDICTIVE! I've been rooted (again) for only a few hours and I've already installed over 15 xposed modules. Amplify and Greenify are up next. It's amazing just how much control I now have over all the little annoyances I'd otherwise have to put up with.

For example, on KitKat, not rooted, I had to keep a locked screen in order to use Android Pay. Since KitKat doesn't let you do anything without unlocking the device, in order to turn on the flashlight, I had to do the following:

1. Turn on screen

2. Unlock device using pattern or pin

3. Swipe down notification panel

4. Swipe sideways to access quick settings

5. Click on the flashlight

Five steps is entirely too many for such a simple action; especially when you're in a dark environment and you need to see immediately! Now, I just press and hold the volume up button and get light instantly! And on top of that, the light is actually usable now that I was able to edit the brightness values. I will never go without root again! :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] G-Star:
I'm also unrooted for some month now since I left my XZ3c for the XZ5c (for the benefit of fingerprint unlocking) and the thing that I REALLY miss is the ADBLOCKER!

Besides some mods (Quick Settings Panel - very few options - where are they all gone?) I can live with it, but Ads in the Browser of my smallest device are a real PITA, that I can hardly accept.

Only reason for not rooting again is the loss of guarantee for my first not-secondhand-phone. Guess, as soon, as there is a root for locked bootloader - I'll be back with it! :D

Once a flashaholic - forever flashaholic... (although I nowadays produced my first hardbrick - my old XZ3c - after all the years and devices)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
If you're worried about ads in your browser, just download adblock browser or opera mini browser. They both offer ad free browsing without root.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] SDee96:
You know very well that nothing can replace Chrome/Mozilla - both are absolutely great.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] PuffDaddy_d:
WOT:

Chrome does ad blocking on mobile now?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] SDee96:
Nah, man, you just need root to block ads and you're perfectly fine. I meant that because both browsers are cross-device-friendly. Everything's synced perfectly with them.
