Or try this..Got it from Laurentius

1) The radio stack is screwed, you don't get GSM signal and the phone says unknown SIM status

2) Device won't start after trying to unlock it with HTC Universal Unlocker (HTC_Uni_SIM_Unlock_v1)

Here is how to fix it:

1)Disable activesync on your computer by right click on activesync icon -> connection settings -> uncheck "allow USB connections". (( Done! ))

2)Put your Hermes (( Universal )) in bootloader mode

3) Connect device to computer using USB cable. (( Done with Original Cable ))

4) Open mtty.exe and select USB port, then connect.

Hit enter twice, you will see the "USB>" prompt. (( Okay but i usually get the USB> prompt with single hit of Enter ))

Type the following commands (do not copy paste!!!) (( I type them ))

USB> password 0000000000000000 (( Returns: HTCSPass1.CMˆËHTCEUSB> ))

USB> set 1e 1 (( Returns: USB> ))

USB> erase a0040000 c80000 (( Returns: HTCST ÚÈÒHTCEUSB> ))

USB> erase a0cc0000 c80000 ((Returns: HTCST ÚÈÒHTCEUSB> ))

USB> erase a1940000 640000 (( Returns: HTCST ÚÈÒHTCEUSB> ))

USB> set 1e 0 ((Returns: USB> ))

(( Then i close the window of MTTY and proceed to step 5 ))

5) Reset your phone and put it back in bootloader mode (( Here i take my Universal off the usb cable, soft reset it with the stylus and without letting it to boot i switch it into the bootloader mode again and get "Serial & v1.01" on the screen's header and footer ))

6) If your bootloader version is different than 1.04 then Flash Bootloader version 1.04 (( I simply ignore this step as this could be for Hermes users only not for UNIVERSAL Users - Pls. correct me if i'm wrong ))

7) Flash the patched radio used to simunlock the Hermes (( I do it with HTC_Uni_Unlock_v1 it has radio version 0.00.00 BUT still it gets stuck at 0% and after sometime gives the same error 114. Cannot Update Radio ROM ))

Your phone should be alive again (( Its Not ))

Um...

I'm using an iMac booted into Windows XP

The FlipStart is also running Windows XP.

And it was SIM-unlocked by Orange; it wasn't SuperCID, and I flashed the "Orange M5000" version of Jwright's Crossbow ROM with no issues (apart from the Crossbow bugs).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] RichardKAthena:
Tried that, one of the first ones I found. Now IIRC the bits in brackets are his results as he tried it. The last line says it didn't work. Which is precisely what happened for me, too!

At present the ROM update won't progress at all. Before it would reach 99% then fail. I'm wondering if the battery, despite showing 100%, is actually not charging correctly and it needs more power to erase the Flash.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] RichardKAthena:
Well, let it charge all night in case it was a power issue (it has a high-capacity battery), tried the Radio ROM, tried the 'task 28' path, tried Universal_SIM_Unlock with MaUpgradeIt - wiped the ROM, no problem reflashing with CE/ExtROM, but no Radio. Just cannot install it period.

Task 32 gives me FF - CID is corrupted, basically. Can't flash Radio 0.00.00, can't flash any radio at all.

Is there any way around this, or is it (as it seems from extensive forum searches including Buzzdev) scrap now? Is there a way to flash an ID to it, and if so, is there any way that the IMEI is damaged, or if so restorable, or will the phone be useless even if I can get a ROM onto it?

I don't get it, as I did nothing stupid with this; I've flashed loads of devices, I even flashed (and risked bricking in a BIG way) a brand new iPhone without headaches. Seems to be a lot of Universals suffering this lately - what is causing it?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] clemsyn:
Have u tried task 28 55aa
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] RichardKAthena:
Again, from the first post in the thread:

"Well, something went wrong, and now it's stuck with no Radio ROM; I've done the MTTY/Task 28 stuff, I've tried every ROM I can lay my hands on, and I'm having a couple of basic issues:"

I appreciate the attempts to help, but what I am looking for is some insight into what has gone wrong, not blind attempts to try any solution - I've tried it all already in the hope something would work. I think that the issue is very low-level, and I don't know how it becomes corrupted - but I have a suspicion that many Unis have been bricked in the same way and the reason no-one has posted a definitive solution is that there isn't one.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] lukeap69:
you did not mention if you were flashing with the SD card inserted into the unit (or have you but I failed to read it).

there is one flashing problem here somewhere and the issue was solved when the SD card was removed from the Uni before flashing.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] RichardKAthena:
Good question, and no - no SD card, no SIM card; I think I remembered this from the original Uni_Unlocker stuff which I'd been going to try before finding out Orange would unlock it for me anyway.

In fact, I'd like to try flashing FROM SIM card if anyone could provide a dump, but no-one seems to have been able to in the threads I have read - since the information about how the SD-Flash works is somewhat scarce, the service manual says "you can", but not what format the data should be in, or how the process works. Merely, how it can be initiated.

And I also suspect that with corrupted CID, I couldn't access the flash routines anyway, since all the radio flash tools appear to depend on this Sec level being "open". Some sort of direct hardware flash - maybe via JTAG - may be the only way around it, though I noticed the Hermes solution which runs under Linux would appear to work by "forcing" the data somehow.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] tomsan:
I have the same problem. And confirm, can not upgrade...

... by SDCard, because I get and error :

"Update not allowed!"

The situation is:

- All ROms WinCE updated run OK! and function correctly: Wifi, Bluetooth...

- All Extended updated ROMS run OK!

- But any Radio Rom cannot ben updated, include the special Rom of Buzz.

I have the same error 114. Device Display "NO GSM", and not have IMEI, not have Protocol.... The phone is OUT of Service.

The problem is the CID is scratched or the Radio bootloader is broken. After 2 years there is still no solution For the Universal devices, But for devices Hermes If there is solution:

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] hnrykw:
Hey, I was thinking about rooting but I can't seem to find the cons for rooting the note 7.. I know that when rooted, Knox is tripped and you can't pay with your phone + your warranty is gone, but are there any other reasons why you shouldn't root your Samsung?

Edit - the title is meant to say 'this' not 'thid'.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] cadcamaro:
As of now you can root without tripping Knox on the SD820 variant but it's not worth it. You lose so much and gain so little. The warranty will be OK but you still lose the ability to use a lot of apps, such as Samsung pay as you mentioned. The best I got out of it was fully removing apps with titanium and AdAway. Without root I use ez disabler and Adguard.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] KidCarter93:
It really depends on what you'll be doing with the phone. If you're gonna wanna try out different ROMs or kernels then obviously you'll need to root. If there's certain root apps you've used befire which you think you may do again, obviously you'll need root.

Personally, I don't tend to root these days for any other reason than Xposed. Even if I don't use many, or even any modules, I root in advance so I haven't gotta do it when I want to use them. With how good phones are these days though, there's less and less reasons to root
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] masaforce:
Xposed for note7 yet? Im getting my note7 in a week.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] holywhitebread:
Some xposed modules are working.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] hnrykw:
Yeah that's true, I am mainly interested in the extra customisation of things like the lock screen and tweaks to improve the phone. Coming from iOS I always jailbroke so not having root makes me feel like I'm missing out, but I probably don't really need it.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] KidCarter93:
When it comes to customising the lock screen there's a bunch of apps that could probably do what you're looking for. Have a search around XDA and the Play Store and I'm sure you'll find something you like.

About tweaks to improve the phone, it's not really something that's needed (at least from my brief usage of the Note 7 so far). I'm not in a position to tell you whether you have to root or not though so crack on if you feel like it :good:

One of the good things with Android is that you can already do more right out of the box than you can with a jailbroken iPhone ;)

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] kkiran:
Is this for T-Mobile? Were you able to use wifi-calling eventually?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] balpreetsaini:
No I was asking for Rogers in Canada. However, since there were no responses I stayed with the N930W8 Canadian model because wifi calling is a must for me due to poor reception in my area.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] aergern:
If it's like the S7 Edge Duos then the sim card that you want to do wifi calling from has to be in sim1. If you put it in the sim2 slot then it won't work. I don't remember why this was as I returned the S7 version in favor of the Note 7 and just getting it unlocked ASAP.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] English_Gentleman:
If you have the setting I should think so. Open your dialer app and go to settings, it should be the bottom setting. I know it is with mine here in the UK.

Hi XDA community

I am new to the whole android rooting scene, I have the Sony C4 E5303, After almost 6 months of waiting for Marshmallow OTA update in South Africa, it has not come, i would really like to use adoptable storage feature. also i would like to have a rooted device for various other apps and games.

However my phone is still under warranty, i got it in February 2016.

Also google and youtube bring up quite a few sites and videos claiming to root.

But not sure how legit they are.

Maybe someone can help me?

Firstly do i wait till warranty is over?, will it be effected?

A step by step guide from a proper back up of data, and lollipop to revert back to

legit download source of tools and mods to use

and then step by step of how to do it.

I appreciate your patience, as i am a noob in this scenario. and thank you for all your help and suggestions

I currently have a 2GB MicroSD card with a GPS program loaded on it. The card was provided to me by the manufacturer. I prefer not to constantly switch the card out to put in a 6GB one that holds music, movies, photos, etc...

I tried to simply copy the contents of the GPS card to my new 6GB one and when I start the program I get a hardwareID error.

I figure it has something to do with the volume serial number or possibly the mbr/disk signature, but not sure. Anyone know of any utilities that can assign the volume number? additionally anyone have any ideas of what the software could be checking against on the hardware?

I'm not in anyway trying to cheat on licensing, it is just purely an inconvenience.

I think the max size is 4Gb
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] djthomas:
I have the 6GB card working fine on the tilt.

Of course anything past 2GB has to be formatted FAT32, so the 2GB is FAT, while the 6GB card is FAT32, but other than that, it works fine for storing music, documents, videos, etc, just not for my GPS program that seems to be locked to that particular 2GB microsd card.

Kinda useless if you want it to work with your Kaiser ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Jozer99:
It could be a bad flash card (either one). Try copying folders one at a time from the 2GB to the 6GB card, instead of all at once. Do the file transfer on a desktop PC, as WM6 might choke when doing large file transfers between FAT and FAT32 (not that its a known bug, but hey, its Windows...).
