[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azzip:
Hi everyone, I recently bought a new camera module for the Z1C to replace my old one which had dark spots all over it, scratched lense etc. However, with the new camera (supposedly an original sony part), I experience a strange brightness and distortion problem, with the former one being rather obvious from the attached pictures. Note the large brightness artifact on the right side of the picture (inverted L shape).

I had sent the module back to the camera supplier, they tested it on their Z1C and found no problems whatsoever, telling me it was a (supposedly well known) software bug in my phone. Unfortunately, I was unable to find any occurence of other users reporting this particular problem. Maybe you can help me out?

I have an unlocked bootloader, currently running on the most recent DstrikersZ1 Mod (Android 5.1.1), but have also tried wiping everything and going back to the latest Sony Stock without getting rid of the problem. Could still be an incompatibility issue in terms of camera module hardware revisions? Interestingly, the problem does not occur in CM or AOSP firmwares, suggesting indeed a Sony-related software issue. Still, I find it hard to believe that this cannot be fixed while remaining on Sony-based firmwares. I have tried to flash every single Camera Mod available (Z5 camera, Cyberian, and many more) plus trying many alternative Camera softwares from the Google Play store without any success.

Thank you all very much!

I can see why you're bewildered. Very strange... I would initially think hw for sure, and someone sold you a bad part, but to hear that it goes away on custom ROMs is very confusing. Anyway, personally, I think I would probably send it back and get a refund, and try a different one. Whatever the problem is, that seems like the simplest first thing to try.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azzip:
Thank you for your quick feedback and sympathy! Unfortunately, they refused to give me a refund based on the fact that they could not reproduce it on their Z1C test device. I had sent them my item and requested a refund/replacement, but they (supposedly) tested my module in detail and even sent me some pictures taken with their Z1C as proof. So now they just delivered the same camera module back to me and I'm kind of stuck with it.

Not sure why they cannot see it, given that it happens for me even on a clean Sony stock firmware. In theory, the only remaining difference between their phone and mine (HW revisions aside) would be my unlocked bootloader and with it the deleted TA partition and DRM for Bravia engine. I still have a TA backup somewhere but I'm not exactly willing to relock my bootloader and to loose TWRP. On a sidenote, the EXRxTHS functional DRM "restoration" did not help with my specific problem.

As you said, the mystery really lies in why the problem is not visibile on custom ROMs. I'd love to get a glimpse on the RAW image data from the camera because I believe that an error in post-processing causes the problem on the Sony ROM. But as far as I could see from searching, there is still no way of getting RAW image data when using a Sony firmware on Z1C, right?

I have my 2 IMEI Codes from the back of the Phone - but how can i "insert" them so my SIM works again?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] kobos311:
If you did not do a nandroid backup of the stock rom prior to flashing a new rom I'm afraid what you're asking us here is illegal in certain areas.

If you have no backup of the 'efs' file (imagine that, someone didn't back up their stock rom prior to flashing) I'm afraid I can't help you. However if you Google some things you may find some work arounds, I would NOT recommend doing so as the processes I've heard about are very risky.

BACKUP YOUR STOCK ROM EVERYONE.

For the ones who are still on Lollipop and EMUI 3.1, the PM Plus app will give you power to control applications permissions and start up.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivtdroid:
I dug up my old sgh-i257 recently and tried to mess with it. I think I may have soft bricked it (it's telling me about unauthorized software and I need to take it to an ATT store).

Anyway, I've been hoping that there has been progress on putting a custom recovery on the phone. Each time I attempted to put twrp on it, I would get a "secure check fail : recovery" message.

Has anyone been able to put a custom recovery and rom on this phone? If so, how?

This is not the Canadian 257m.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ninekaw9:
This has been tested on eRobot V6 which is based on Stock TouchWiz Marshmallow 6.0.1

You need root access.

Navigate to /data/system/users/0

Edit settings_system.xml

Look for

name="double_tab_launch" value="1" package="com.vlingo.midas"

change to

name="double_tab_launch" value="1" package="com.sec.android.app.camera"

If you are using Lollipop, editing SQL database in /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db should also work.

PS. This is better method than my previous version of this original post. In previous method, you need to turn on phone screen first, then double home to camera will work. Which is triple home to launch camera behind lock screen. So you have to swipe to unlock lock screen first.

This new method, if phone screen is off, and you double home, it will launch camera right away behind lock screen. So you have to swipe to unlock lock screen first.

Hello. I renctly bought a Huawei Y5 2 with Android 5.1, I want to encrypt my phone but as I can see in the settings/security menu I cannot choose that option, and I just read that Huawei does not let you encrypt it. So i was wondering, is there any way to use a 3rd party app or something like that to encrypt my phone? Full disk encryption is a must.

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Waseemxx:
Every time honor keep saying that we get this update very soon but unfortunately no bostive action as if we are asking for Android 7 I believe this update will never released
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] lostorbit:
I believe 'racism' is a bit too strong a word in this situation, but I do nevertheless think that there's neglect for the C185 KIW-L21, which I presume has to have similar hardware to its European cousin bearing the exact same model number.

Other aspects worth noting is how Huawei is selling the Honor 5x at a much higher price in the gulf states than in other countries (US, India), knowing that there's little import tax and no VAT!

Otherwise, it is still a great phone.

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] BASET02:
why??[emoji24]
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] lostorbit:
On their Pakistan Facebook page, they are advising people who are asking for download links to head to nearby service centres who would install for them or wait for the OTA.

Perhaps they're not so confident about this version and want a slow roll-out to avoid potential mass scale issues that may not have been discovered during testing (or could be simply that Huawei have a strict policy regarding new firmware deployment). Otherwise, providing a link or floating the update file would have definitely put people out of their misery.

It would have been better not to announce the firmware on Facebook and promise over the weekend that the firmware will be available within the next three business days., but rather announce when it's widely available to the public.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Faheemarif252:
Yup.. they should have announced the release when they actually released it... Not when they thought they did....

In my opinion they are using ptcl to upload the update, thats why it's taking forever... XD
