[Sony Xperia M5] グリッチ:
Ok, so I have an E5653 series from Taiwan. Unfortunately, I do not live in Taiwan, so I cannot take it to a support center in person. I've also spent 5-6 emails with Sony Taiwan telling them about the issue, not only do they not accept phones from overseas (because of the shipping back or something???), but are just giving terrible responses and fail to admit my issue is hardware (even according to the Xperia_M5_E56_Battery_Lock_Test_in_CS_Repair_Center.pdf) and keep telling me to update&repair my phone with Xperia Companion (WHEN IT IS UPDATED!).

So, I figured I'd take a shot and try to fix the issue myself. As many of you know about the 4G shutdown fix where the only resolution is plugging it into the charger, and I've seen the fix where you can uncheck a few bands in the BandMode settings, but I currently live in the middle of nowhere... unchecking the suggested ones leave me completely without service. So I can only use my phone with WiFi/Mobile Data off/Airplane Mode (y'know the rest).

I've contacted Sony from other region and they said they don't sell parts for their phones... so... what?????

I was looking at this listing here, is this the battery I need? I saw something on the M5 forums here about Rev03 or something? No idea...

If not, anyone know where I can get a replacement battery? I saw this video and it seems like I'd be able to replace the battery by myself, just need the battery in the first place.

Any other suggestions?

Another question: I was on 5.1 rooted and moved apps to SD card, eventually they started disappearing and the only way to find em again was opening Play Store and hitting open, or moving them back to storage... any idea about that?
[Sony Xperia M5] aidy.lucas:
The different Revision no's are where they have usually fixed any issues with the production process or had hardware problems and swapped to the latest hardware releases. So if you have a Rev1 device it could be possible to get more defects until the problems get ironed out(white z5c anyone). One reason I always wait at least a month or two from device release date, unfortunately Sony aren't really doing anything wrong regarding the warranty I thought it was well known that if you get a Xperia device from one country to use in another that's the gamble you take on it working perfectly and not needing the warranty.
[Sony Xperia M5] グリッチ:
Yeah, I did get this phone very early, so I'm sure without a doubt it's Rev1, I'm just asking to identify if there's any place I can buy the latest rev battery? There's a .3 in the end of the number in the ebay link I posted, but I don't know if that's how it's identified. Or if someone knew of a place to get M5 batteries online.
[Sony Xperia M5] aidy.lucas:
No idea how you'd tell regarding the batteries, but the best place to start would be eBay and Amazon
[Sony Xperia M5] otsukaranz:
Search on how to disable the baseband to mitigate the shutdown issue. This is because of the signal, the phone needs to push a little more juice to get more signal from weak areas.
[Sony Xperia M5] グリッチ:
Unfortunately already tried that, even tried messing around with what bands to disable.

(Just the CLR bands, all bands except PCS&DCS, etc) It either leaves me without signal, or still shuts down my phone. If I leave on all bands and select edge as well.
[Sony Xperia M5] garynych:
It had the same problem, the solution only in the service center of Sony (RSS) warranty ...

that's what changed with this problem ...

LEAKED MARLIN AND SAILFISH BOOTANIMATION

Info + Intro

via [MENTION=5597682]@urmilshroff[/MENTION] on G+ I have created my first project - a bootanimation based on this source. My version is a 1080p Manual install that works good on my Nexus 5 and OnePlus 3, both with 1080p displays. For my version of the project, I have "open sourced" it; resources available here.

These resources have allowed for projects for other devices, such as this port for 480p displays here, so you can feel free to use them too.

Mentions, honours and credits

[MENTION=5597682]@urmilshroff[/MENTION] for requesting the project in the first place.

[MENTION=5061138]@androcraze[/MENTION] for helping me out in the beginning and then continuing to maintain the project.

This should work for all 1080p and 720p devices.

Tell me what device you have if it worked for you.

Confirmed working on:

OnePlus 3

Nexus 5

Xiaomi Mi 3

Finally cleaned up OP, enjoy!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Napoleon_First:
I really do appreciate your work, but could you not just cut the video on screenshot and make a config file how should they change(btw there is some sort of a mistake in its first part), but at least fullfil all screen in white color? It's not so hard to do and this write rectangle looks really... werid, I dunno...

And in my opinion, Google won't use white background for bootanimation in final release, or they would need to change the bootlogo for other supported nexus devices too :/
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ZeevoX:
Thanks for the notice, just realised there's a bug in the beginning. I'll work to get that fixed.

Since this is my first boot animation I'm not really into developing yet, could you please further explain what you mean by config file?

Of course Google won't use a white background, but it's the only source I have gotten. I'll see if I can find a way to fill in the background.

This video, in fact, isn't screenshots, used a tool called ffmeg. :)

I, to some extent, made this to test my skills and whether I could do it for a guy on G+ (You may know him, he's called Urmil Shroff)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nicholaschum:
[MENTION=6375026]ZeevoX[/MENTION] thanks for your contribution, I will be posting the actual bootanimation.zip file soon in the Android Themes section, formatted perfectly for MM and LP devices.

Possibly even with the sound.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ZeevoX:
Cool!

So is it your own work or is it based off mine? Out of curiosity, how would you add a boot sound?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nicholaschum:
It is based on Google's original resources from my Marlin dump, so I have them at all resolutions.

Sounds have to be hacked I somehow.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ZeevoX:
[MENTION=3605033]nicholaschum[/MENTION] Oh, nice! Where did you obtain the Marlin dump in the first place then?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nicholaschum:
My team has a connection of whom gave us the whole system dump. My G+ I've been posting things AndroidPolice and AndroidAuthority hasn't posted before, and when they do we leak more information.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] cell2011:
Any fix yet for a full white screen boot or will it be black? This is great
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Ghost9867:
This will work on Nexus 5x ?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ZeevoX:
Yep, because it's also got a 1080p display.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ZeevoX:
If you know how to fix it... otherwise, googling doesn't find any answers.

Thanks as well!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] garzacorporations:
I agree. And it doesn't look very good with black and white and for me even flicker...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] wangdaning:
You need to edit the desc.txt file for the correct resolution.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
Final product looks great!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ZeevoX:
Great! :) Glad to hear!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] SgtChrischi:
Doesn't work on Samsung Galaxy S5. It has a resolution of 1080 x 1920, so it should work :/

EDIT: Ok, fixed it. Had to edit the desc.txt and use c's instead of 'ps :D
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
Can you post a sample of your desc.txt?

The thing about "c's" vs. "p's" is that the c's are "timed" to system events, or at least I believe that they are:

p 0 0 part3

will never go past this line, yet:

c 0 0 part3

does, if some "milestone" is reached.

Different devices have different animation rollouts and structure. I always shy away from "c's", unless I'm modifying frames in an existing animation.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] SgtChrischi:
1080 1080 24
c 1 0 part0
c 0 0 part1
c 1 0 part2

I just tried it, because the default bootanimation of my ROM (Resurrection Remix) uses c's. And with c's its working on my SGS5, with p's not.

By the way: great work, I love it. :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] androcraze:
See if these flashables work on your SGS5:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/ekaau8imc8we782/Nougat-N5-White-bootanimation-Nexus5-flashable.zip

UPDATE: The animations in this thread are probably for a future version of Nougat, perhaps 7.1. The current Nougat animation is a derivative of the stock Marshmallow animation; the main difference is the "Google" text-logo at the beginning of the Nougat version. Both are very close. I have copies of both (and "maxed" versions) for 1080p in my boot animations thread (check my signature).

[MENTION=6375026]ZeevoX[/MENTION] has really done a great job getting the Nougat animation on the N5; he's put much work into converting things, and should be commended for both inspiration and perseverance.

He's more than welcome to use the above modifications in his thread, if they are acceptable. My main concern is whether they work on multiple platforms, not just the N5.

Yoy should install a cystom recovery to begin with. You can do it with Odin, install for example TWRP, just look for it at xda. Then you can install anything you want, and even root it.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kamionek:
RemoteData (code name, alpha)

Description:

Program to encrypt and locally store data retrieved over http. You define url source, get data, input password and text data is stored locally.

Algorithms used: Rijndael(256bit key), SHA256. No password is stored (only strong hash), no recovery option available. Encrypted file is only valid on device that saved it. Data is completely secured.

Purpose:

Store your personal data on server (in.e. yours), update it on demand, store safely.

Installation:

Just run cab file. Program doesn't use registry and temp. It just creates two files in it's own directory. One with password hash (just for initial verification) and one with encrypted data. If the first is accidently deleted, it can be restored (if you know your password), but the second one is still safe.

Usage:

Run application; set your password; add source (url and name); refresh source. On exit, program will crypt and save data. On next run, just type password and your data is there (no need of net connection).

Notes:

I need opinions and proposals, in.e. useful enchancements. Tested on WM6/Schaps 3.6/Hermes and emulator.

Technically, data is stored in xml file in base64 format, but only item names are not encrypted (so if you loose you password/something breaks, you know what you've had).

Rijndael has the largest key space of the portable symetric algorithms. To put the size of the key space into perspective, if there was a machine fast enough that could brute force a DES key in one second, it would take 149 trillion years to brute force a 128 bit key for the Rijndael algorithm.

Please note: the longer and more complicated password you provide, the better.

Requirements: CF2

Needs: I need a nice icon :o and testing. This is one of my first apps for mobile platform :rolleyes:
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Waffletaco:
Hello everyone,

Let me apologize before hand because I am a little new to rooting androids. I have searched and searched and nothing seems to work for me. Anyways here is my story. I had my phone rooted with twrp and supersu but on lollipop. I thought it was time to upgrade so I decided to go to the HTC Website and locate the RUU. I downloaded the one in that link and installed it. Everything booted up fine. I installed TWRP and rebooted and it worked. I installed SuperSU as according to this LINK. The only difference is I had already put the zip file on my sd card before loading into TWRP. Moving on. This is where it started to mess up. I rebooted my phone afterwards and was stuck loading and then reloading at the HTC screen for 25 minutes. SO i decided this must not be working so i loaded back into TWRP. I tried DLing different versions of SuperSU and still rebooting at the HTC screen. As of right now my download mode says ***** UNLOCKED ******* S-ON. My OS is 3.38.502.12 and when I had originally installed TWRP my OS said Android 6.0. I am now trying to go back to the RUU and get it to flash the rom again but after hitting next on the installation exe it closes and does nothing. I have tried to look for a ZIP file but HTC apparently hasn't come out with one.

If anyone can help me I'd REALLY appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

I have TWRP flashed, bootloader unlocked, and am rooted. Can I flash a custom ROM while being rooted or will that mess up the ROM?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimSnoopOS:
Backup boot, system, and data in TWRP. Now do a Factory Reset and wipe System then flash the custom rom and gapps of your choosing. You'll be good to go after this. Don't flash a custom rom over the stock rom.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] amberblossom:
Hi all,

I have a AT&T Galaxy S4 i337. The WIFI doesn't work. It seems to be a very common problem as there are many fixes on the internet. I have tried them all and I don't know what to do now. It is running V. 4.3 and my baseband version is i337ucugoc4.

- Rooted. Installed Rom Manager, Terminal Emulator, SuperSU, and Reverse Tether so I could use the internet (because no wifi).

- Tried to install a new modem but could not find the exact modem file. I saw a list at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2496517 but didn't know which was good for my phone. I saw I337_UCUGOC3_Modem_RockRatt.zip but it ends in a 3 not a 4 as required for my modem.

- tried to update using the AT&T Software update. It stayed at "Checking for software updates...." and then said "Software update interrupted. No updates available. Check back in 24 hours". Don't know if that would have solved the WIFI problem anyhow.

- Tried again to install to 5.0 thru USB. Downloaded and installed it but when I rebooted, it was still 4.3

- Downloaded FXR wifi and ran it - no luck there.

- downloaded the modem file ATT_OC4_modules.zip and flashed it to the phone. It said SUCCESSFUL but there was no wifi afterwards.

- Adjusted the source code with terminal emulator as I saw in a youtube video. No success and I changed it back to the original.

- Downloaded wifi manager and tried turned off-then-on wifi.

- probably more things I have forgotten in the last three days.

I have tried everything I can find to try. It has been 3 days of trying - very frustrated. I would very much appreciate direction on this. To recap, I need to get wifi working and want to upgrade to lolipop.

Thanks so much,

Amber
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
May I ask why is your bootloader is lollipop but your OS rom is still Jelly bean ( you said 4.3). It appears that you might have jelly bean kernel which will not work with lollipop modem and bootloader. Majority of the wifi problem is caused by the kernel and bootloader mismatched, assuming that your radio (modem) has no physical damage. Try to flash the OC4 kernel and see you still have the wifi problem.

If you want to upgrade to lollipop from Jelly bean, there are several guides on this forum explaining step by step.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] amberblossom:
I flashed the OC4 kernal - no change in wifi

Thanks sway8966,

I flashed the OC4_update_from_OC3.zip file but there was no change - still no wifi. I wonder if I were to upgrade to lollipop would it automatically fix the problem because it would have the matching bootloader and OS rom? Do you think this might solve the problem?

Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
I do not know what included in the oc4 update from oc3.zip file. As I said before you could try flashing the OC4 kernel file and see whether your wifi is working or not.

Here is the link for the OC4 kernel. You need to flash it via odin.

If you do not have any particular reason to stick with Jelly bean you should upgrade to Lollipop or at least to Kit-kat.

Hi! I had an s4 variant with your problem the same, the wifi nope in none routers.

I gave this device to trash , because i discovered what "happened"

Some stock app, from samsung, masked as anything that i skipped to search (i have much precious time to loose, instead loose really, lost time BRITISH DEVICES IN EXT4 filesystem) what app exactly, is receiving data from samsung server to delete the /system/etc/wifi/bcmdhd.cal

I was obligated to reinstall this file 4 times, changed permission to r--r--r--T untill resolve. But was not sufficient, after this, my wifi, fixed again, but the phone at 8º reboot, after , received a remote conmand again to turn the phone ridiculously slower, i lost my head and crashed this device on the wall, and nevermore i will use this name.

All this happened just exactly, after install cwm and root sucessfully, without touch anything on the firmware. Something from samsung inc, is programmed to "detect" these 2 events, and send a "tick" to begin the hell in fire on this devices GT S-Xx

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sway8966:
Your phone is probably in soft-brick now. You need to flash the 4.3 firmware via odin or You need to update to full kit-kat.

If you want to go kit-kat flash this NB1 firmware via odin. It is NB1 but the kernel is NC1 so that you can use towel root to root the phone. Anyway flash that firmware and see the phone is normally booting and wifi is working.
