then I probably don't have the correct driver. I installed this one

Do you know where I can find the correct driver?

In device manager, I see a new item when I plug my phone :

USB mass storage device

I tried to update the driver with the one mentioned before, but it says that it is already up to date.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicsr2cool:
You've got some commands wrong. Volume up plus power is hard reset. You get 3 vibrations then phone is off.

To get into fastboot mode or flash mode you do not use power button and phone needs to be off. Simply hold volume up and plug in USB for fastboot mode, or hold volume down plus plug in USB for flash mode. Blue LED for fastboot and green LED for flash mode.

This is the best option for install and drivers: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48915118

I tried to install android driver from the topic you suggested (I know I should post in this topic, but I have not enough privileges to do so), but I have the following issue :

after the installation of the drivers, I followed the howto_driver.zip (the device is not recognized), and in step 5, I don't see the "android device" driver.

As suggested by

But when I tried to uninstal KB2919355 I got this error :

An error has occurred. Not all of the updates were successfully uninstalled​

I gave up and tried to install the usb driver from a folder. I downloaded the following driver : developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb.html

but when I tried to update the driver, I get a message error saying

booloader locked, pattern bug and no recovery access

Hi!

I just got myself into big trouble. As I wanted to use my 1+3 for work, I wanted to bring it into its original status. Coming from Ressurection Rom, I wiped it, and intalled the original rom from the oneplus website.

With that it also got unrooted. Then I wiped it completely (no backups etc.), but decided to stay with twrp as I thought IT of my company won´t recognise it. But then I had to relock the bootloader. so I used the Oneplus3&3T Toolkit v4.7U and locked the bootloader.

So and now I am stuck here, as it seems I got this bug that my pattern for unlock doesnt work anymore AND the device cannot boot into recovery.

Bootloader is stated as locked.

Please, can anyone help me with this?

Many thanks in advance!

hey, a week ago my phone was crushed by one of my friends somehow and now, as you could guess, it doesnt.. display. No touch response either as far as i can tell. only response is vibration (turning on and off, recovery mode etc)

see.. i've really messed up here. this is a samsung device which means i have two tools useful in aiding my problem. kies and FindMyMobile (to unlock the screen) and as i just noted my phone is locked so kies will not work. why cant i just import files? Usb Debugging is disabled. FindMyMobile? not enabled on device. AllShare? Remote Control? both disabled. everything seems to be blocking me.

so the question is, is there any way possibly using adb or another method to either enable usb debugging or pull my files from my internal SD? if so, sorry to be a pain but this hasn't happened before. well, my data hasn't been as important before. Anyway, could you explain in deep detail for me? i'd appreciate it.

if not, is there any program or method to unlock my phone through my computer?

please, no one suggest USB OTG as even if my device does support it, it either wont work or i wont be able to get one in time. my phone goes off for repair or replacement on the 28th. (factory reset)

i've been looking for the past 5 or so days for a software that can do this. Wondershare was one of them, installed the recovery package on my phone but did nothing at all.

I apologise for the long and vague question im not sure what im asking. i just want all my photos and videos off my phone. nothing else. my computer recognises my phone but doesnt allow data transfer. i guess my priority right now is finding out a way to unlock my phone. Thank you in advance

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] Rokil:
I have an non rooted, official Tab Pro 12.2 on 5.1.1. with an 64Gb sandisk Ultra SDXC micro usb card. I use the sd for movies on holidays. A few weeks ago i suddenly couldn't delete or write any files anymore. Not even format the card in the Tab, on Windows Xp, Windows 10, or even Linux Mint. In other tablets or phones i get the message that the card is empty, but can't be formatted. When i take a picture, the image is stored on the sd, so it isn't broken. I just can't remove it anymore.

I tried several programs for formatting sd cards, but i get the message that the card is write protected.

There is an folder named .android_secure and it can't be removed. I googled and found out that this is folder is created by app2sd, but i never used this app. Also i never moved apps to the sd card, so i don't understand how this folder is created. By the way, the date of the folder is 1-1-1970. Very strange.

It's very easy to buy a new sd card, but what if this happens again and ruin my next sd?

Has anyone had this problem and perhaps has a solution.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] otyg:
When the sdcard goes read-only the card detected a major fault with the card and a protection mechanism will switch the card to read-only mode so you can get data off (hopefully), unfortunately the card is toast there is no way to revert the read-only/write protect mode, Sandisk has lifetime / 10 year warranty on most sdcards so just contact their support and they will ask for the serial number on the back of the card (use a camera or magnifier glass to read it), do the rma form and send it to them and they will send back a better brand new card usually a good model, if you have valuable data on the card you can snap the card in-half (since it is read-only you can't erase it), just make sure to note it with support ..

I have been through two sandisk cards (both 64gb), one went poof dead, then the other did what yours is doing can't delete/write/format but you can see all the files - sandisk replaced the card twice no issues, the last card they send it working great no issues.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] Rokil:

Worth a try.?

This has happened to me several times on different occasions.... typically after I have deleted all the extra and hidden files and folders my phone apparently likes putting on my SD cards. When I get that message, I will right click C: drive, select properties, go to Hardware tab, highlight the storage device, then run the disk check on the tools tab. 9 out of 10 times it will scan and fix errors on the disk... when it does not.. I redo the whole process.. . lather... rinse... repeat :)

Hi out there!

Today i've looked another time for kernel sources of our loved (and hated) phone. ;)

The only full source i've found was this one on the Sony Website:

http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/xperia-open-source-archives/open-source-archive-for-33-2-a-2-37-and-33-2-b-2-37/

I don't have the time nor the knowledge of kerneldevelopment to check this out.

My question is:

Is it possible to port this Sony kernel, to have a working p9000 kernel, with the goal to have let's say DirtyUnicorn running?

greetings

vsrookie
[Elephone P9000 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonny:
Kernel and ROM are 2 different things. We could get DU working on stock kernel, but we need valid device and vendor trees. Sometimes you can make them yourself, other times the manufacturers provide them.
[Elephone P9000 Guides, News, & Discussion] vsrookie:
Ok. But an android system need functions from the kernel, don't they?

What do you exactly mean with device tree and vendor tree? The drivers for the components? If it is so, then can't we "just take them" and integrate in the kernel source?

greetings

vsrookie

Ps: Basically i need to read sonething about Android development. [emoji12]
[Elephone P9000 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonny:
Vendor tree example >>> https://github.com/omnirom/android_vendor_omni

Device tree example >>> https://github.com/omnirom/android_device_sony_kitakami-common

The Android system does use functions from the kernel but its not really "aware" of doing so, you can run custom ROM's like DU, Omni etc from stock kernels most of the time without any issues.
[Elephone P9000 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boristruyens:
So basically: When/If Elephone decides to release CM13, it's still possible they won't give us the vendor/device tree? So that's basically a byebye to porting roms?

Sorry, I'm a nub too.
[Elephone P9000 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonny:
Tbh that is a massive probability, making device and vendor trees is not non-trivial and is a lot of work. For instance the HTC 10 still doesn't have a stable CM build, and there are some hard hitters in the AOSP dev world that own that device. I'll have a look and see what I can do but I'm an app developer and an apk editor (i.e. Java and Smali are more my languages than C/C++) more than a source builder so I might not be able to do much.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Zacharee1:
I recently got my hands on a VZW S4. From preliminary research, it looked like I would have no problem unlocking my bootloader and installing Cyanogenmod. However, now that I've looked around a bit more, I see the unlock method was for Android 4.2.2 and is no longer applicable. I also saw that custom ROMs are available to flash, but that they're all based on TouchWiz. I read this is because custom kernels cannot be flashed, but then I saw the thread on custom kernel modules.

It's all pretty confusing to me. I have the VZW Note 4 as my main phone, and have been keeping up with roots and bootloader unlocks (I have CM13 on there and I love it), but flashing with that seems pretty simple and straightforward to do compared to this S4 stuff.

I tried to do my research, but I'm still not sure what the answer is. Can I flash CM13 to this, or do I need to stick to TW? If I can't get it, are there any 6.0.1-based TW ROMs for the S4, or is that also not possible?

Are people even still working on the S4 (maybe to find a bootloader unlock for the 5.0.1 firmware)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fastzombies:
Don't do it

If your device is already on OF1 then you cannot flash anything with a non-stock kernel. That means CM. Only devices with MDK bootloader have that luxury. TO double check boot into recovery with vol up + home + power, release for just a moment when you see first splash screen then hold until it finishes. You will see your bootloader listed at the top. Anything other than MDK and you are out of luck.

Always research the lock status of the bootloader of any device you are interested in otherwise no CM for you.

Ahh. It is good that you are cautious. I did not state forget everything. Just custom recovery, marshmallow, and CM.

It is an assumption, that I made as well, that once rooted the sky is the limit. Unfortunately for us that is not the truth. Another lesson in "don't believe everything on the Internet".

Due to some outstanding work by the developers that are in our situation, there are options. If you have the chops and are confident in your Odin skills, we can get you on any of the ROMs listed.

We did :p. My sister has a basic phone and we're thinking of moving to T-Mobile (save ~$3000 over two yrs). Since the basic phone obviously can't transfer, she'll need to move to a smartphone. The S4 is an old phone I wanted to get working, since new phones are expensive.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fastzombies:
Do your research

This is why we are telling you "research". You have to acquire a lot of data and sort it out. As I hinted earlier, you MAY be able to use some ROMs if they use the stock kernel. Those two use stock kernels so they may work. If you don't know what a kernel is then you have some pre-research to do. Then you need to figure out how to get root on your kernel. OF1 requires you to use Odin to flash an OC1 kernel before you can use KingRoot after which you have to use Super Sume to replace KingRoot with SuperSu because Flashfire won't work with KingRoot. I had the additional joy of having to figure out how to use VirtualBox to set up a Win7 virtual machine on my MacBook Pro to use Odin as the JOdin version just didn't work. Had enough yet? If the work involved is starting to pile up then decide what you want to do about it, how badly do you want a custom ROM on your SCH-I545 OF1 device?

For me, a very unfortunate series of events (from a lack of sufficient research) led me to the OF1 bootloader and now I am mostly screwed. I cannot get stang flashed correctly, all it does is reset everything to stock. I am beyond tired of messing with it so I am resigning to just having root until I buy another non-bootlocked phone. HTC M9, Moto X Style, LG G3 for AT&T/Cricket or T-Mobile/MetroPCS are good examples. I highly suggest you search through CM's list of supported devices as a pretty sure thing.

CM Device List Selector

Remember to check for nightlies as several devices only show nightly CM13. And then research even that to see if the nightly is stable enough to use as daily driver. I even found a snapshot version to have a few bugs once so nothing is guaranteed. It can be a perilous journey so decide if it is worth it to you but a little research goes a long way.
