[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flopshots:
Hello,

I replaced my Sony Xperia Z5C lcd screen and everything is functioning well, except my wifi reception is poorer. Much poorer. I know it's a hardware problem because I've factory reset my phone and the problem persists.

I want to replace the wifi antenna, but shockingly, I cannot find any information about where it is. Is it a separate part? Is it on the motherboard? Some websites are telling me its a long thin blue wire. Some websites are telling me the plastic bracket is the wifi module. And some websites are telling me it is the NFC antenna. What I know to be true is that the antenna is located somewhere here, as described by the manual [IMG="here"]https://data2.manualslib.com//pdf5/112/11129/1112893-sony/images/xperia_z5_compact_e5803_43_bg.png[/IMG]

After researching to no conclusion, I am hoping that someone out there knows where it is located so I can replace it and get my phone working again. Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Where it is at is not gonna be your issue. That will be that Sony doesn't sell replacement parts and you have have to solder it to the board and then reprogram it with tools not available to the public.

You should be able to pick it out when you opened it up. Also the screen could easily be part of the issue or you happened to touch something inside the device. That is the most common issue as the oils from human hands are terrible for electronic devices.

I would advise you to take it pack apart. With rubber gloves and an anti static pad. (should already have these from the screen repair.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flopshots:
It is not the new screen. I tried putting back the old screen and it is still poor.

Can you please be more specific with how to fix the wifi antenna. Also, do you know where it is? It seems like you do. I just need more details about where it is.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
I would have to see the device to be sure as it is placed differently in every model.

Then that leads me to the oil theory.

Once again finding it is the easy part.

So here is what you will need to do once you find it. (check fcc site. The approval comes with a blueprint.)

1. Take the whole device apart.

2. Remove the antenna

3. Replace the antenna by resold Erin it to the board.

4. Reprogram the board for the new antenna. (this you can't do as the software needed is not given to the public)

5. Use a J tag and the devices mount points on the board to reprogram the OS onto the board.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gauner:
According to my own research, the antenna is right in that area where the manual states. It is a area on the plastic frame coated with conducting material in a certain pattern. If You remove that frame (right after you opened the backcover), You'll see many such coated areas which connect with the proper motherboard's spring contacts. Some of them to me seem to be only bridges from one mtherboard part to another, other coated areas seem to be antennas and such.

Hi I was just curious if anyone knows the difference between the two January releases for the 6P. I'm currently on stock 7.1.1 December Patch (NMF26F). It looks like there are two version for January (N4F26I) and (N4F26J).

If coming from NMF26F which one should we flash?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chochiwpg:
I ended up flashing N4F26J as it's a bit newer than the N4F26I build and has a newer radio as well. Just in case anyone else is curious. :good:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ca12bon:
Hi, my phone (G930L, Korean Exynos version), is rooted, and currently running a beta version of Nougat. I received a message both on my phone and also Samsung Switch program on my PC, that there was an update available. However, I'm unable to update both from the phone and Samsung Switch, due to being rooted.

Is there anyway I can update to the latest beta without having to flash factory stock firmware?

Thanks!

Hi, I just pulled out this old phone so that I can root it and use Tasker to auto like on Tinder!! Cannot use my S7 Edge as banking apps and others will not work with a rooted phone.

Anyway, I can't find out how to root the old thing. I tried Kingroot which seemed successful but when I try to tick the 'use root' option in Tasker it says that the phone is not rooted.

I do not need this phone for anything else, do not even have a SIM in it. Can anyone help me out with rooting instructions?

Anything I look at on here is not for that specific model and are all old and links etc. do not work.

Or

Anyone know a Tinder auto liker that actually works and does not require root?

Ppl on G+ say to use the J build but I wanna make sure before I side load. Guess I'll wait it out till we get firm answer
[Nexus 6P General] clone.x:
The Android 7.1.1 "N4F26J" build is slightly newer and it contains newer "radio-angler-angler-03.79.img" than "N4F26I" build ("radio-angler-angler-03.78.img").

BootLoader ("bootloader-angler-angler-03.64.img") is the same in both version.

c.x

EDIT: I flashed "N4F26J" build (security patch level - Jan 5 2017) and everything seems to be good here in Europe...

.
[Nexus 6P General] TokedUp:
OK seems J is the way to go. I'll sideload and report back after. Thanks
[Nexus 6P General] cyberon:
Which community?
[Nexus 6P General] bigblueshock:
Going to assume the one with the different radio is for Verizon phones. But I'll wait till it's all clarified before I flash.

Edit: Verizon users on 3.78 bootloader could not leave voicemails (to other verizon users), or call their own voicemail service with Enhanced 4G LTE enabled (VOLTE). Taking a guess 3.79 fixes that.

N4F26I is for international?
[Nexus 6P General] B3501:
No, for Verizon.
[Nexus 6P General] jwigley24:
I think N4F26J is for verizon, as this one has the 3.79 radio.
[Nexus 6P General] B3501:
One is a later security build? , I think both work the same.

https://9to5google.com/2017/01/03/android-january-security-patch-factory-image-ota/ The J radio works fine for me in the UK, non Verizon anyway.
[Nexus 6P General] Displax:
N4F26I - build date "Wed Nov 30"

N4F26J - build date "Tue Dec 6"

It would be strange, if carrier specific build compiled earlier than normal. So Verison is N4F26J.
[Nexus 6P General] Pig Vomit:

They are probably trying to fix something thats why they produced 2 security updates lol. Good thing im running DU on mine haha
[Nexus 6P General] B3501:
Why? DU use AOSP as a source so whatever security holes AOSP has, DU will have.
[Nexus 6P General] infamousvincci:
Yeah thats true. But for stability and battery management wise, i would say DU is way better than google itself. Especially now that google has pixel line, they wont care that much on 6p.

[Nexus 6P General] danmaman:
You have to tick the Modem firmware also in FlashFire... And don't tick userdata in flashfire

I have flashed the factory zip (j) version in flashfire

Cheers
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
After scanning the image, by default FF does not pre-select the modem partition (baseband) because it is a protected partition. In his documentation Chainfire recommends not using FF to flash the modem firmware, but I've done it several times on multiple Nexus devices with FF. Whenever there is a new modem version, after FF is through updating and the OS comes back up, I run FF a second time and select only the modem partition. This has worked every time for me. Modem is not updated regularly, but when there is a newer version, this one extra step is required. You could also extract the modem.img from the image file and flash from ADB. Best of luck.

Edit: Ninja'd! Yes, You can select (tick) modem on the first go, but it will error out and remind you it (modem partition) is protected. This is why I run FF again afterwards to install the modem separately. YMMV.

[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
Still 100% stock? Should work. I personally don't sideload OTA's. If I were you I'd just flash the full factory image (N4F26J). Just need boot, system, vendor and modem (new for January).
[Nexus 6P General] whatnot.com:
Yeah, I rolled it back to 6.0.1 because I was getting reboots on 7.0. I took the 7.1.1 OTA and the reboots reduced a bunch but then I had the radio issues. I cringe at having to back the phone up again with all the pictures I have on it.
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
ANY reboots are just not normal at all (or acceptable), and I would NOT recommend jumping back and forth between 6-7. Stock 7.1.1 is rock solid. May be time to nut up and do a clean install from a blank slate? Nowadays the Google cloud backup is pretty damn good in getting you back to where you were, app-wise as well as shortcut layout on all your pages. Make sure it is switched on and synched. Get yourself to a strong Wi-Fi to upload all your pics full sized to Google Photo, or transfer them off to PC. Not a big deal. Radio issues? Verizon? New radio for January.
[Nexus 6P General] Born<ICs:
? Can I go from 7.0 NBD91K to 7.1.1 N4F26J using Flashfire? Rooted, Pixel mods, buildprop edit or two on Verizon.

Do I run Flashfire 2nd time to flash latest radio/modem?

Thanks much
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
Yes. You will need to flash a 2nd time for modem.

1. Using full N4F26J factory image in FF (Flash Firmware Package) select Boot, System, and Vendor partitions only. Under Process Cache-allow cache wipe. Under EverRoot-inject Super SU. Under Reboot-Normal, Preserve recovery. Flash.

2. When it comes back up, go back to FF, (Flash Firmware Package),select only Modem Firmware. Under Reboot- disable (untick) preserve recovery. Flash.

3. Now, since FF injects SU 2.78 you should update SU binaries using the SU app, or flash the newest SU 2.79 SR2 (recommend using FF again or TWRP)

4. Finally, if you had a preferred custom kernel, you can re-install it now. Done.
[Nexus 6P General] Born<ICs:
.

Thanks

Do I need to rename phone Pixel XL back to 6P?

I'm on unofficial TWRP .3 and SU 2.79.

And is the J update full 7.1.1 plus Jan security?
[Nexus 6P General] bigblueshock:
I did the J version. On Verizon, the I version you risk not being able to call VM or leave VM's for other Verizon users with VOLTE on.

I suppose you could just flash I version, and flash the new radio seperate. I just went with J because it came with the radio that works off the bat
[Nexus 6P General] zerosource:
This should be an answer to many of us.
[Nexus 6P General] onesolo:
If you have TWRP installed, I think that is much easier to just grab the full OTA file, go into TWRP, flash it, then flash SuperSu. Optionally if you need to install a kernel, just flash it after SuperSu.

That warning from flashfire saying that is not recommended to flash radio over there it a no go for me. That's why I prefer flash full ota on TWRP. It flashes fine even with modified system.
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
No, when you flash system, the build.prop will be restored to original.

Should be default, but under Reboot- preserve recovery should be ticked so you don't lose TWRP

Yes, N4F26J has the latest Jan security (and 03.79 modem)

I was on 6.0.1 still and took an OTA for 7.1.1. It ended up being N4F26F but the update went fine all the way back from 6.0.1. I then had to sideload the N4F26J OTA update.
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
My son's 6P was stuck at one point while mine kept updating just fine. I searched around and found a solution that worked for us: You take out the SIM card and put a SIM from another carrier. Doesn't have to be activated or even valid, but the advice was from different carrier. Start the phone with the second SIM and let it settle. You'll see the new carrier in the notification bar. Now shut down and put your SIM back in. Within 5 minutes his phone got an OTA and he hasn't been stuck since. YMMV. Good luck.

I am stock unrooted on T-Mobile, and my mobile data was horrible on the original 7.1.1 build and 03.78 radio. I was investigating solutions when I discovered there is a 03.79 radio. I was considering the solutions when I got the January security update. However, I got the I version with no new radio. I am hoping that maybe the problem isn't the radio, but can anyone speak to whether 03.79 does anything at all for T-Mobile?
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
The 0.3.79 radio contains fixes specific to Verizon, but all N6P's can use the radio. I didn't notice any difference and I'm on AT&T. If you had a custom recovery like TWRP, you could easily switch back and forth to try it out, but I doubt it will make any difference on TM. If it was working better on an older radio, you could also revert to a known good radio for your setup. You can read more in the radio thread.

4. Select Flash.
[Nexus 6P General] equlizer:
can i just flash the 37mb update and re root and install twrp again?
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
That's what I do. The preserve recovery and inject ever root options should already be set by default. If you are running a custom kernel you will lose it until you reflash. I always use the full image, not OTA. You should also know that because this update contains a new radio, you should flash that separately. Although not recommended, I have also used FF to flash the modem afterwards by only selecting the modem partition and disabling preserve recovery.
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
You could use an incremental OTA, but why would you go through that when you could just use the full stock image in FlashFire, which would preserve your recovery and automatically re-root for you? FlashFire likely won't see the OTA until Chainfire works out the details and updates FF. Until then just use the full image. There is an XDA thread dedicated to FF if you are interested. Google "Flashfire xda"
