Thanks for your reply!

I want to make my LG G2 F320 look like G2-D802 model thatswhy I need stock boot and shutdown animations of LG G2 D802 model. And anyone who wants to make korean model look like an international version will surely need these files.

And by the way how I can extract files from a .kdz rom?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
I can't give you any files because I don't have the device anymore but It'll be easier if you took them from one of the stock roms in the dev sections like somboons's rom. Extracting a kdz is a longer process, this post might help with that.

I dont know how to exactly explain the issue...

When you receive a text message your led light is supposed to blink green

This works most of the time

For some reason if I am texting someone and I leave the text message open and my screen goes to the black/screen saver screen, My led wont blink if that same person messages me... it will blink if another friend texts me.

Its kind of annoying.

Anyone else have this issue? I have had it since I got the phone.

It's because you're active in that action. You won't get all notifications. Just close it. I've noticed this myself, have not found a workaround per notification.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingneil:
I followed this guide to unlock the phone

http://www.android.gs/sim-unlock-samsung-galaxy-s4-i9505-i9500/

At stage 6.... there is no menu that says UMTS

It just simply takes me back to the original menu with stuff like "GSM900: Limited" etc

It takes me back to the very first menu after I dialled “*#0011#”

So.... what do I do...??

The reason I'm trying to unlock the phone is that it said, "Network not registered".... It won't let me connect to an EE network at all... so I thought maybe the solution is to unlock the phone.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Is the sim activated? Could the imei be blocked by the carrier? If you are not bring prompted to enter a network unlock code, the phone could already be unlocked.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HIS YB:
You should be asked to enter unlock code before yu try to unlock it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
In order for the service menu method to work, you MUST downgrade your modem to an Android 4.2.2 version first. Only then will you be able to access the appropriate menus. We have an entire thread on the topic of SIM unlocking in the General section of the forum, and mention of the modem downgrade really doesn't start showing up until posts from November, 2014. That thread has also pretty much switched to using RegionLock Away to blow away the SIM lock, as it's a more robust solution than the service menu method.

Now, will it help you regarding the EE SIM? Probably not. But it will allow you to use a SIM from any carrier.

[Remix OS for PC] nkolvek:
Not all pc's (laptop/desktop) have f12 enabled from factory. Quite often you have to enable it first before the option is available. On laptops it's usually NOT enabled by default (HP's with UEFI use ESC to get boot options menu). With win 7-10, just booting from install medium and using repair option will also repair bootloader. I had not tried re-enabling secure boot to fix. Using install medium from MS usually fix's it in about 1 minute without changing anything in the bios. I have suggested this way a few times since it eliminates a few steps and puts you ready to repair/re-load remix/phoenix without reverting changes in the bios.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tscandalitta:
Hi, last week I was given a Moto G3 XT 1541 from Spain. The problem is that it doesn't connect to argentinian carrier's 3g or 4g bands, it only works on 2g. A friend told me that I could work it out flashing the firmware of another model like XT1540 which works perfectly on 3g and 4g. Is it a firmware block? Can I solve it flashing another model's firmware? If I flash it, will my phone work or it will be a stone? Thank you ver much.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vikas Dhar:
Yes, you can.

Moto G 3rd generation does not have capability of 2300 MHz bandwidth.

Requirements for a4G

1. A handset that supports 2300Mhz.

2. A 3G plan.

3. USIM (they provide free upgrade)

4. 4G network coverage

I think even HSPA or HSPA+ might not work for me on this phone. I am using a T Mobile family plan here, and comparing th bands given on the website:

"4G (HSPA+)

With 4G, theoretical maximum download speeds range from 21 Mbps up to 42 Mbps. You can take advantage of incredibly fast download speeds, and even use voice and data services at the same time.

Frequencies: Band 2 (1900 MHz), Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)

3G (HSPA)

With 3G, theoretical maximum download of 14 Mbps. With 3G, you can use voice and data services simultaneously.

Frequencies: Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)"

"Moto G (XT1550)

LTE (1, 3, 7, 8, 28,40) UMTS/HSPA+ (900, 2100, 850 MHz)

GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)"

It seems that the uplink is unsupported by my phone and so the phone is unable to use the HSPA/HSPA+ bands. I think the only way to use it is to unlock the 1700 MHz band on my phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
XT1541: GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850, 900, 1800, 1900 - UMTS/HSPA+: 900, 2100 - LTE: B1 (2100), B3 (1800), B7 (2600), B8 (900), B20 (800)

Argentina UMS/HSPA+ works on 850 and 1900.

This phone will only get 2g where you are. Flashing another firmware will not fix this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] rnpasinos:
i have a rooted stock rom with twrp as my custom recovery... i'm trying to update the security patches but since i'm rooted, the firmware won't allow me and has instructed me to update it manually using smart switch... is there a way around this so that i don't need to connect it to my laptop?

anyway, i have since installed smart switch on my laptop... however, i've yet to press the update button because of this caution: "A rooted device may cause updates to fail, unstable mobile phone operation, and/or other problems." has anyone tried updating via smart switch? if yes, will it unroot my device and revert to stock recovery (really not an issue because i can just re-apply both)? will it cause any other issues?

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] pull.me.under:
SGP621 additions

Hey man,

thanks for this concise guide to unroot our beloved tablet! I tried a few times before, but always gave up under the flood of outdated info available. With your guide, I successfully rooted my SGP621 (= Sony Z3 Tablet Compact with LTE).

Since you refer to "available info on the net" quite often, I had a few moments where I was unsure what to do exactly. Maybe the following hints can help others like me who are new to the world of Sony android devices.

Step 1:

You could probably also downgrade to 5.1, but to be safe, I chose 5.0.2. The needed ftf files for SGP621 as well as the SGP611 and SGP612 are avilable here.

I used the most current version of the flashtool, which is 0.9.22.3 as of this posting. I followed this (German) guide for installing and using the flashtool. To install the needed drivers, you'll have to navigate to wherever you installed the Flashtool to, there to the subfolder drivers, and execute the driver installer you find there. In the driver selection dialog install the first two, and of course the Z3TC driver you find somewhere in the list. Got two errors during the driver installs, ignored them, all went well.

Step 2:

Kingroot is a one-click-rooting solution you install directly on the phone, no pc connection necessary. After the tool is installed, you have to start it, swipe up a couple of times, and then tap on "Purify". The description in the xda thread made me think "Purify" is just an ad for an additional app, but it does start the rooting process.

Step 3:

After downloading and extracting XZDualRecovery, start the install.bat (under Windows, obviously). Connect your tablet, then choose menu item 1 (Install with SuperSU).

Step 4.1:

Many guides describe a decrypt / unpack step, you don't need this. The files are already unpacked after the download through XperiFirm. I did, however, delete the file "fwinfo.xml" from the downloaded files. No idea if that's needed, but it didn't hurt either.

To convert the downloaded files into an ftf file in the flashtool, select "Tools > Bundles > Create".

As "Source Folder" select the folder that XperiFirm created in the download path you specified. You'll then see a bunch of files in the "folder list" - select everything but the ".ta"-files (there were 5 ta-files in my case).

Doubleclick the empty "Device:" line, select the correct device.

I guess you can enter whatever in Branding and Version, I entered "German" and "23.5.A.1.291".

Step 4.2:

The "RecRoot"-File mentioned is indeed called "RecRoot_combined.zip". If you download that file, you're good to go. The PRFCreator tool needs to have Java installed for the last step (signing the prerooted rom). The file with the prerooted rom is saved in the PRFCreator dir itself.

Hoping this'll help someone!

[MENTION=4489837]pull.me.under[/MENTION] I am glad that I could help. Also, I'll thank you for your time extending my guide a bit with more detailed steps. That'll help users who are new to this stuff for sure. ?

Hi,

If I follow this way, can I restore my tablet in stock settings if I have any trouble?

cheers
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] ChiDi9901:
For restoring your tablet to stock, you only need flashtool with Xperifirm. It's like the first step where you have to download the stock firmware from Xperifirm and flash it with flashtool. Then you only have stock and clean operating system on your device. Unless, I'm not sure what you mean with stock settings?

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] duartix:
Thanks for the Guide.

Post #5 is almost as important. It goes through a lot of details and problems I encountered (like the no neede to decrypt or the need to install Java to sign it).

For those who like the shortest path, here's a pre-rooted flashable zip:

Customized IBE Version 23.5.A.0.575 R8D for the SGP621

Decrypt key is:

!8G97O9eDtnF-_PntdsGh8uoRo7KQFpS7_D2c_FNaI-I

(edit) Lost root and I can't figure out why. :(

One moment I had 5.0.2 rooted with XZDualRecovery the next moment after step 5, I had 6.0.1 but root was lost. :(

XZDualRecovery is still there. I tried booting into TWRP and re-flashing RecRootV4_combined.zip to no avail. I had already done it according to the instructions right after the pre rooted ROM.

Anyone has an idea of what I could have missed?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] blue8:
Tnx for pre-rooted rom

Your link need Decryption key.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] tzitzi2:
Sorry for late answer.

Nothing fancy, just the usual way. Power off, power on, when led is green press volume -. TWRP is there:)
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] duartix:
Updated on OP. But beware that something isn't probably right. I lost root as soon as I flashed MM.

Hi,

In order to use foreign phones in Turkey you have to register them you can use an unregistered phone up to 4 weeks with a Turkish sim Card, afterwards your phone will be cut from the Turkish network.

I know that they need the IMEI of the phone to register it, normally you do it in a government building but there are shops who do this for a cheaper price than the official way.

My question now does anyone know here what you have to do to register my phone myself, do I have to unlock the bootloader or root it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mancom:
I have a rom dump Part02.raw for HTC VOX. I want to get a proper OS.nb from that file. I don`t have original rom which Part02.raw came from.

My phone is cid and sim unlocked.

I was trying many tools with no effect.

I was using tadzio tools (ImgfsTools 2.1rc2.zip), but this gave me a not proper (about 40~mb, when it should be more than 62~mb) OS.nb which can not be flashed to device (system is not booting after flashing).

When using mamaich imgfs tools (imgfs_tools_182.rar) I get a "proper" OS.nb. I`m abble to flash it ok and phone boots ok, system is starting ok, cold boot is restarting phone ok, system starts ok again. But none of customization is done during cold boot and is missing. I get a plain vanilla rom on device. Looks like none of mxip_*******.provxml files are parsed during cold boot.

That`s not what I want, I want to get a identical copy of dumped rom (Part02.raw)

Everywhere I look, I find a tutorials for ppc not for sp. So I used them, with no luck, and I can`t find any help in Vox forum.

Q: What I did wrong? Why I didn`t get a PROPER flash? Is XIP has something to do with it?

(Part02.raw is from Orange Polish rom for Vox, RUU with rom can NOT be found enywhere. A donator OS.nb I took from HTC_Vox_ARA_1.27.415.4_4.1.13.47_02.98.90. A donator OS.nb is much much bigger than Part02.raw)

Help please.

(I was trying to flash Part02.raw back to phone with pdocwrite.exe but this tool says that partition cannot be found, strange, cos pdocread.exe is reading partition fine and makes dump to Part02.raw ok, so I think that IMGFS partition is somehow locked for writing)
