Firstly: I am not responsible for damage to your phone through this guide, follow at your own risk.

Hey guys, while trying to capture the Nougat OTA i collected every previous update and wanted a central place to share them with you. :o

Stock Firmware:

OTAs:
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Euroter:
Is this the stock firmware SIGNED? I want to be able to reflash and relock to completely stock, and I'm not sure if someone has found a signed package, or we are all just stuck with the unsigned that will not allow relocking the bootloader.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] G4liant:
I'm sorry to say, but the image is unsigned. Haven't found a signed one so far. But at least you can unbrick your device with this image.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] timster01:
I've got a file named Blur_Version.25.21.2.addison.retail.en.US.zip ... I think it's Nougat OTA from retmx

I got it from http://motorola.erfanabdi.ir/?model....24.231.19.addison.retail.en.US&carrier=retmx
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] -=MoRpH=-:
Here is the RETEU Update file. I installed it via adb sideload and all works fine.

Link NPN25.137-24-1

I got that file from a friendly user of http://www.android-hilfe.de
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] DadOudidOuda:
Awesome, thanks.

I'm always unsure about something when sideloading an OTA : will future OTA work on my device afterwards?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] -=MoRpH=-:
We will see it with the next OTA :P

But if you use the OTA for the same Channel it should work.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] G4liant:
Thanks for providing the OTA, i updated the first post and added the file to my mega.nz drive. ;)

[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] dandrumheller:
Do you have the file you are trying to flash in the same folder as mfastboot on your PC?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Temchenko:
The only bad thing is you can't sideload ota if you have sideloaded RetBR first. Before flashing it checks build number of your system. That OTA can be applied only for last December MM build or if you are running NPN25.137-24-1 itself. So for all of us, who sideloaded retbr ota there is wait till full rom will come online. Or maybe someone knows how to flash it via stock recovery on retbr build 25.137-15-2?

Hey guys, one question that maybe will sound dumb... Can I apply the ota file via recovery "apply update "?

I have December security patch.

No one has seen nougat firmware stock? Whatever channel it is? Thank you
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] holabola:
If I sideload the OTA Nougat update, will it require a wipe?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] G4liant:
The stock ROM which is only available as marshmallow right now, as well as the ota files are all for official RETEU channel only. You can flash them in other regions but your ota support could break if you flash a ota other than for you region. To install a ota you have to boot into recovery and choose apply update from adb. There is no wipe needed if you are coming from the stock marshmallow firmware.

[OS Porting] Kaffeetrinker:
Hey!

I want to start developing on an old Sony smartphone, the Xperia Miro st23i (Mesona).

Why this device? It isn't expensive to buy a new mainboard in case I break it and for reasons of sentimentality ;)

I have already compiled kernels for Desktop Linux for various reasons.

Now to my question:

There are CM10 sources and some 2.5-ish TWRP available which I intended to upgrade.

Can I break access to fastboot by flashing a kernel that doesn't work at all?

This always happens every now and then when trying something. But on my Thinkpad, I could always swap the hdd when I've messed things totally up... Here, I can't do that.

Same question for TWRP, can I break fastboot?

Can a messed up partition layout break fastboot?

How could I break fastboot?

I think my questions applies to more or less every Sony phone.

I couldn't find any information useful to me by Google or Xda search because the results are so full of questions how to get into fastboot...

I absolutely don't know how the fastboot mode works and what it depends on.

I just want to know what major mistakes I could do before I do them. Maybe I can prevent to be in need of a JTAG Interface by asking in advance :D

Thanks for any useful answer!

PS: Please don't discuss the fact I'm gonna develop on this device. The amount of thanks given in case I'm successful will be like 4 and the device will be sluggish as hell on Marshmallow or Nougat because it has only a few MBs of RAM and only 1GHz CPU. I know that! But I don't want to start developing on a device that's so expensive that I can't afford to break it.

You wouldn't let a newbie "try to learn something" at your new Prius. You would give him your old 1992 car that you don't need anyway, regardless of its top speed ;)-
[OS Porting] hypertrack:
Sony devices can use flashtool which is different from fastboot and provides the ability to reflash the full firmware - which helps you get out of most issues you may encounter.
[OS Porting] Kaffeetrinker:
Thanks for trying to answer my question, but that's not it.

I've already unbricked like 50 phones by exactly following tutorials and reading everything I could find.

In the end, I just want to know what flashmode or fastboot mode depend on. I want to know which partitions I may mess up and which I may not mess up.

My guess is I may do everything as long as I don't reflash the bootloader partition.
[OS Porting] hypertrack:
Ahh ok - so I bet [MENTION=1346722]Bin4ry[/MENTION] would be able to answer that question - either him or [MENTION=2807379]Androxyde[/MENTION]
[OS Porting] SkandaH:
[MENTION=6686062]Kaffeetrinker[/MENTION]

This thread by [MENTION=4120742]munjeni[/MENTION] used to contain much more detailed info about the S1 bootloader, but most of it can't be accessed right now.

:rolleyes:
[OS Porting] Kaffeetrinker:
Thank you very much! This thread gave me some words to google. Doing so, I found the information I needed :)

As soon as summer's over, the project can start.

To answer my own question in short: you can't hardbrick a Sony device as long as you don't mess with the bootloader.

Fota recoveries are completely seperated from the actual ROM (although they can be updated together).

Fastboot does neither rely on Fota kernel nor does it on the system kernel.

As long as you do only regular rom developing and don't change the partition layout or mess in any other way with the bootloader partition, nothing should go wrong.

If you create an unbootable system kernel, you still can use your twrp. And if you create an unbootable TWRP, you can still get into the system.

If you mess up both, you still habe got fastboot.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BBM7720:
Okay, I'm in the process of rooting my Amazon Fire Tablet under version 5.3.1.0 and I'm using Kingroot to root it.

It got up to about 17% before showing me a screen with red orange text on the top with two symbols followed by a "Root" then additional symbols by about seven.

Then on the little picture of the device it has yellow orange text saying "118" with an up arrow with some more characters at the bottom.

Then I got another screen after this with a checkmark and a code box.

What is it telling me?

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] tinchomey:
Hi there, my camera is having a real trouble right now.

I take my phone from the box and get the update from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3.

I did it.

Then I used like my daily phone but... the camera didn't Focus, manual or auto focus, just can't focus.

I did a wipe... Still the same problem.

I did a re-install of the 4.0.3 ROM. Still have problems.

What can I do?

Thanks.

Sorry about my english. I'm from Argentina.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Anova's Origin:
If you've already wiped and re-flashed OOS, then it's likely a hardware issue.

I would contact OnePlus's warranty service prior to opening up the phone and trying to fix it yourself.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] tinchomey:
That's something that I don't want to read.

God... What a luck.

Thanks mate =/
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MartinMo:
I've got the same problem. I wiped not the sdcard data on the phone (storage/emulated/0) but everything else I wiped with TWRP as I updated to the latest OOS 5.0.3: Problem still exists, nothing solved. The phone is running fine, but the camera doesn't autofocus, every picture is blurry. :(

Has someone information for me, on what to expect, when I contact the OnePlus support with this problem? Or has anyone tried to repair it by himself/herself?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Sameer V:
I had same issue around 6 months back. Its a hardware issue so don't waste your time flashing different roms like i did. Then i went to OnePlus Exclusive Store and they checked my phone and they told me that, they will fix it for FREE (even if your phone is out of warrenty) its a well known issue for 3 & 3T which OnePlus noticed a year back, as many users started facing this. If you are facing same issue then just go to the service center and get it fixed (it wont take more than an hour)

Tip: There is a third party company called Regenersis, which is authorised service center for OnePlus and many other brands, you can get it fixed here as well.

Cheers!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] nardustyle:
Same problem for me, sent to repair under warranty.

If you shake the phone the focus point will change? this is what happens to me, for a couple of months I was shaking the phone every time that I was taking a picture, sometimes focus was in the right place and I could take the picture
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MartinMo:
Yes, slight tapping of the phone in the palm of my hand sometimes made the phone focus for one time...

Thank you guys for your helpful answers! So I will try to contact the support. I'm in Germany and do hope to get the same good service as you did.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MartinMo:
Hi folks, I asked OnePlus for a repair and they handled this quite well: My phone was back after eight days, now my camera is focusing again.

But now I'm questioning myself (and you, too ;) )...:

A) What was the reason for this defect in the first place... Is there anything I can do to avoid it happening again?

B) I used different versions of the modded Google camera app in the past, but now I'm hesitating to install it again: could anything of this app might have damaged the focus of the camera module? Maybe the app tried to focus the camera out of its working range...?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
A) Probably just a random hardware failure. It happens. Not much you can do about it. It's a mechanical component (the few left on phones these days) and can fail on day one, or not fail for years. Don't drop the phone too much, is probably the best you can do! lol

B) I doubt it was the fault of the Google camera app. I've been using the Google camera mod for a long time, with no issues.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MartinMo:
Thank you, good to know.

Have you used different ones, or only one specific? Which are u using now?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
I used a couple different builds, but haven't messed with it for a very long time. I put 5.1.018Arnova8G2-V1.3 on there a long time ago (over a year) and haven't updated it since.

EDIT: I have no better explanation for my lack of updating the Google Cam mod, other than I just fell out of the loop. Your question made me realize how far that mod has come during that time! I just installed the recent version 6.1.021 by Arnova8G2 and giving it a try.
