I´ not sure to backup the TA on the new XC.

Z1/Z3 i´ve no problems.

But on XC, hmmm?! A little bit uncertain...

Can you help me a bit?

According to which sequence I must proceed?

1. Unlocking BL?

2. DirtyCow Backup?

3. DeviceKeyBackup?

4. TWRP/Advanced Kernel flashing?

5. SuperSu flashing to get root?

Thanks in advance,

Dirty cow backup before all
[Sony Cross-Device General] rayman:
Your TA back up was not successful. Please wait for next release and try again. Should be ready soon
[Sony Cross-Device General] porroni:
Yes but I don't have an Xperia XA. I said I had the same result of that guy with the Xperia XA, but the phone I am using is an Xperia M4 Aqua
[Sony Cross-Device General] rayman:
Alright, let me make it entirely clear :

If you get permission denied, your device is not yet supported.

A fix will be released as soon at possible. V2 has been verified on z1, zl, z2, xa, xa ultra, m4, e5 and more and it works great.

I will add verification of TA dump as well, so if you are in doubt whether you have a valid dump, wait till v2
[Sony Cross-Device General] porroni:
Ok. Thank you ^^ do you have an idea of when you will release the new version?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mbc07:
It also works on Xperia M5...
[Sony Cross-Device General] webwude:
You should backup before you unlock. Otherwise your keys are gone for good.

hi

my phone is bricked and as i unlocked the bl moto voids the warranty.

i need help if someone is ready to do the following:

Get an external MicroSD card with “exfat” system file, and the size of this SD card should be larger than 16 GB, which is the size of the whole partition.

Do a complete factory reset on the phone. If a custom recovery is installed, use it to wipe data, cache, and internal storage.

While the sdcard is in the phone, run the follow commands via adb

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/storage/sdcard1/backup.img bs=512 count=30535646

The size of the backup.img is around 16 GB, However, if compressed would be about 2 GB

then upload the emmc image so i might have a chance to unbrick

using hdd raw copy tool

UPDATE 2017-feb-02:

moto replaced my unit

:)
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] enetec:
You should be more clear in what's your problem, what your situation and what you would try to do... :confused:
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] reiteravi:
it's hard brick

no screen on

detected by computer as com port:

qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008

meaning u can only access it as described here:

https://www.leakite.com/2016/06/revised-how-to-unbrick-qualcomm-android.html

or here:http://www.androidbrick.com/unbrick...-you-have-the-right-kind-of-rom-qhsusb_dload/
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] enetec:
Oh man... How this could be happened exactly? :eek:

Anyway, instructions you provided could be right (I know quite all programs involved...), only some notes:

- it's better to use a just formatted PC to do the work (and be ready to reformat eventually). Use Windows 7 64 bit and Administrator user to have no hassle...

- it's not really needed to factory reset phone before backup command... Problem is that if someone don't, you'll restore all his private data too...

- external SD is not really needed as ext4... Even exFAT would be fine (only problem is the 4GB limit of FAT32). exFAT is even better because it could be read on Windows PC too (by who will send it to you...), while ext4 requires linux PC or some software on Windows...

Said that, I really can't, but there are A LOT of user here that are testing some firmware every day (read: e.g. testing for [MENTION=490110]janjan[/MENTION] ) that can help you for sure... Stock software isn't really needed to unbrick: only a rooted working one is enough...

Good luck bro'... ;)
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] reiteravi:

data is no problem as u cannot access it anyway..

what i remeber is that i flashed retcn nougat

it booted and even id:n/a was reolaced with real id number

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] janjan:
Did you followed these steps described in above links. I can take a look if you are close to my country Denmark. Can you boot in bootloader mod? Did you look at RSD ? Many possibilities there but difficult to help someone without the device. Hopefully you can solve your problem.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] HelloMoto777:
Are you sure that's how it works, cause mine is also from UK, but I live in Poland, and the idea of sending it to the other side of the continent if something happens sound kind of silly to me, I mean, can't they just let you ship it to your closest Motorola service:rolleyes:
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] reiteravi:
no

i contacted mot us and they only deal with us units

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] reiteravi:
it's not resolved

if u succeeded plz give some info how

i got sahara fail every time
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] pp20547:
Ok... You need to manually flash using fastboot command the firmware xt1650.246.45 (search blog you will find it, I can't remember link right now). Ignore any error messages while flashing.

After flashing, boot to recovery (stock recovery that was flashed manually earlier). Choose update from ADB, now sideload nougat firmware. After completion again boot to recovery and clear cache. Now you are done.

But your bootloader must be unlocked for this.

Thanks.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] reiteravi:
u missed big time

had i got any fastboot access then it was not bricked

unless u have found a way to fastboot in "qualcomm 9008 mode"
[General Questions and Answers] karlovac:
Hi all,

I mistakenly put the wrong modem on my phone (Galaxy S5 SM-G900T). I was trying to do a USB-based sim unlock, after installing a new logic board, which had Android 5.0 installed. I had previously done the same steps on my old (broken) logic board, but at the time, that had Android 6.0 installed. The steps included updating the modem file on the phone using Odin, so that it could talk to the SIM-unlocking sofware. (The custom modem came packaged in a TAR file).

So now my Android 5.0 phone has a modem that was presumably for Android 6.0. It doesn't reliably connect to my computer using USB when not in download mode. I can put it into download mode, but I'm trying to figure out how to re-install the original stock Android 5.0 modem.

Here's what I've tried:

Downloaded a new stock Android 5.0 ROM for my phone. I searched SamMobile for my model number (SM-G900T). I got it from sammobile. Forums won't allow me to post the URL, but the full filename was G900TUVU1DOB1_G900TTMB1DOB1_G900TUVU1DOB1_HOME.tar.md5.

Extracted the rom on my computer using tar.

Found the modem.bin file that was extracted.

Used tar to wrap modem.bin in a new file called G900T50Original.tar

Used Odin to put the G900T50Original.tar onto my phone (by selecting it in the CP section).

I tried these steps, but it just timed-out, and I had to unplug and restart my phone.

Did I miss a step here? Is there a specific way that the TAR has to be packaged for it to work?

Thanks in advance,

Antun
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
This should help you figure it out.

http://www.rwilco12.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=92
[General Questions and Answers] karlovac:
Thanks. Actually, after writing my post, I decided to try uploading just the raw modem.bin file via Odin, and it worked. (i.e. without tarballing it up). My baseband now shows the stock Android 5.0 one (

I'm not sure what I was doing differently than the instructions you posted. I didn't specify the ustar format, so maybe that was it. (I just did tar -cvf modem.bin > myfile.tar).

it's been a minute since updated the mda. i forgot which one denotes the radio, maybe gsm?

i get so many dropped calls it rediculous. also sometimes i can't end a call or the keypad does not do anything. i.e. trying to get into Vm i can dial the vm but punching my keys for the passcode does nothing.

really awyward when i want to hang up and i can't.

better radio rom is first priority

---------------------------------

xplore rom

gsm 2.25.11

ipl /spl 2.26

os 1-.2.0.0
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ndn715:
most use 2.19 or 2.69

i would use 2.19, good call quality and reliable

also, you might want to upgrade to ipl/spl 3.08, faster boot up

for the buttons not working in your VM, download and install Advanced Config

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=317070

in the phone setting page, make sure that the DTMF checkbox is not checked.

thanks. 80% of my calls dropping is a nightmare.

I see I have a file I saved called T-Mobile-NL_2.19.11_Radio_Only.zip but the NL notes Netherlands perhaps? Can i use this or should I check somewhere else?

I'll get to the other ROM update later but thanks for the heads up. I need to get back into updating my baby.

anyone familair with the issue that you cannot hang up sometimes or the keypad does not do anything in calls sometimes. on a fresh boot im ok however.

any idea rethe buttons, perhaps the rom. i get many phoen based admin systems where i cannot enter pin's etc.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] gehzumteufel:
i personally had this problem at one time. it had something to do with the way the rom flashed. reflash device. i never could get it working by changing any settings.

btw DTMF needs to be ENABLED not disabled. if DTMF tones are NOT enabled the "tone" is only echoed locally in the speaker of your phone but not actually sent to the other end.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] frodiggs:
thanks. phone is better now with 2.69.11, i''l try 2.19 later.

[Samsung Gear S3] polson:
Its pretty stupid that in S health are so many sports to choose from, but in the watch you have almost only excercizes that are strange to do with a gps tracking watch, pilates or other funny things that watch will not calculate correctly.

I mean where the f... is alpine skiing programm or snowbording or rollerskating, football etc. there is only cykling, running and walking to use gps with.

Why i cant synchronise my sports that i choose in S health app with S health app in the watch, i dont need pilates pushaps and the rest of this kind.

Anybody knows how to use the watch with skiing etc?
[Samsung Gear S3] JurekDJ:
Hi, I am very curious as well. It frustrates the hell out of me that I can't use S Health for all activities I do and there are many useless ones instead. Anybody can help? How logical to me. Obviously not for Samsung.
[Samsung Gear S3] polson:
You cant even start activity in the phone and see it on the watch, just like in android smartwatches on endemondo etc.

I will not wait until sombody will write an sports app, specially that i dont want 3rd party app and nowbody knows if there will be any first party sports app other than shealth with pilates, joga, pushups and other...

Because of that I have returned gear to the shop.

For notifications and watchfaces I dont need gear s3 with GPS. Also in my country there is no lte frontier version and no samsung pay.

I think i will buy Huawei Watch and use endemondo or other activity app connected to my phone.
[Samsung Gear S3] glumardok:
I miss alpine skiing in the S-Health app on the S3 as well. But I hope that Samsung will add these activities in the nearer future. For the meantime I have installed Rossignol Ski Pursuit. I wll see next week, how it works in real life. :)
[Samsung Gear S3] polson:
I have found Ski pursuit too, but what with other sports, i dont belive Samsung will add more in watch S health, couse gear fit 2 with GPS is almoust 6 months old and yet dont have many sports too...

I have had Fenix 3, wasnt afraid to use it everywhere, but gear s3 with that delicate bezel on slalom ski.

I will buy Huawei now, for superb price.

I will come back to gear s3 if samsung will add different sports and more first party apps

Any problems with MMS. no matter what phone or rom, always ALWAYS triple check your APN. A phone call to Verizon will verify if you have the correct APN and make sure there isn't problems on their end.
