[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomg09:
Wondering if anyone has any advice on something, plus I'd like to make some observations on a common problem. I dropped my phone about 4 months ago from about 3 feet up, in the cold (around 5C). Since then, I've had vertical lines appearing on my screen as in this post (https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-70061-1-1.html). Only difference is the lines don't extend all the way up the screen. There is about an inch at the top where the screen is normal. I have a few observations about the issue:

- It does not appear to be a broken screen. I replaced the screen/digitizer/frame assembly with another (used one), and it worked at first, but developed the same symptoms after a few days, out of the blue (did not drop).

- I can coax the screen to act fairly normally if I display a mostly white screen (either by inverting colors, or by setting a white background/opening a white app, etc)

- After a certain amount of time with a "mostly white" screen, I can revert to a dark screen and it seems to act normally and display dark colors again/can see everything on screen (not always though).

- When it's funky, I can see a vertical line about an inch from the top that flickers - above it, the screen is normal, below the screen is funky (vertical lines)

- It happens randomly, as in it will work normally, I will shut off the screen, and when I turn it back on, it's funky again.

- Weather/heat/cold appears to have no impact on it.

- This occurs during boot and in TWRP recovery, so it's not caused by software (doesn't seem like it's ROM dependent, by the way, I'm on CM 13.0), perhaps by bootloader which is common for everything that runs on the phone?

From these observations, it seems like it's not the screen that's the issue but rather the board the screen connects to (inside the phone, top board with the camera/volume attached to it). Does this seem right? I can't figure out why the screen would work when mostly white is displayed. I had a theory earlier that perhaps a (nano/micrometer sized) crack developed on the transparent conductor used to build the TFTs that drive the individual pixels - that would seem to make sense of the "white". As the lower pixels are driven, sufficient voltage/current is supplied to bridge the very small crack that occurred, leading to a (mostly) normally working screen. However that would have been fixed by replacing the screen, so it doesn't seem like that's the case.

I see two possibilities:

- The board that connects to the display has something that cracked/shorted like I mentioned above and sufficient voltage/current bridges the crack

- OR The second LCD is also broken - however this doesn't seem to be the case as the screen worked perfectly for a couple days. I haven't had the screen work for that long since this happened.

So, what are everyone's thoughts? I'm out of warranty. I could try replacing the board or just get a new phone. Or perhaps someone else has some insight...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] androidddaaron:
I can t seem to find the active forum

But anyways I have S7 active att and I managed to flash the end boot.tar phone booted as unlocked but I looked into multiple methods and threads to root it on 7.o

There's a few root.bat scripts for supersu2.79 and one for supersu2.82 that is said to root any variant on nougat .

The scripts aren't working it reboots with super user 2.79 apk installed but no root access and when I open SuperSU it says update binary which I already know you can't And when I root.bat supersu 2.82 script the app says SuperSU is occupied.

Either I'm using wrong file or there's a method I'm doing wrong.

Both scripts are extracted into fastboot folder and I've already successful odin flashed the modified bootloader . Just can't get super user to install right and stick on this att S7 active on nougat

Hey Guys whatsup

Listen got an issue I'm a techie to an extent but I'm still learning a lot so help me. I just bought a ZTE AXON 7 in the Gold YESSSS!!!! and I absolutely love it well I have Straight Talk currently I have the ZTE Majestry Pro which is a 4G LTE CDMA-V (Straight Talk/Verizon Based Phone) well anyways Id like to switch and get all my stuff up and running but is there a way around me having to order a Bring Your Own Phone Activation Kit from Straight Talk. Will my SIM that is in my Majesty Pro fit into my phone if it is cut down. and Will the the AXON 7 take a Straight Talk CDMA 4G sim card and work

Please give me some feedback because I'm lost and don't really know where to start. I did already order a BYOP kit that is scheduled to be delievered on Monday but I really don't want to have to wait that long to get on my new phone.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] xtermmin:
Theoretically, yes you should be able to trim down your current SIM card to nanoSIM size, stick it in the Axon 7, and be good to go.

I'm using my Axon 7 on Verizon with no issues.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] tabletalker7:
In theory you could, but your service would suck. Straight Talk gets it's CDMA-V service from Verizon and there are tons of horror stories about this phone on Verizon service. I spent the 99 cents and had straight talk send me one of the AT&T BYOP sim cards for my Axon 7 and I don't regret it. I recommend you do that

[Sony Xperia X Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] SXUsr:
Before attempting this you need to have a back up of your TA Partition and it's a MUST that you do that before unlocking your bootloader if you wish to retain your DRM keys, once they're gone they're gone!!

So if you haven't done that yet go do it now! - Universal (Dirtycow-based) TA Backup v2

Also note...

...to flash the DK.ftf you need to use Flashtool Version 9.22.3 for some reason, not sure if that still applies but if it doesn't work for you with the latest version you know where to get the one you need.

So begin by downloading and extracting these two tools, which can be used individually...

[PoC][Work in progress] Trim Area Proof Of Concept

[ROOT][Kernel][TWRP] repack of the stock kernel with dm-verity and SONY RIC off​

...I personally have one folder that I've called "Kernel Kit" and have both of these tools in it together as they don't conflict and just makes things easier. I did however copy PoC into the RootKernel folder as the only same file is the busybox application, pretty sure it's the same but PoC is newer so wanted to use that one, but it's up to you how you do it.

NOTE: You can add a recovery.img and your preferred SU to the folder/s. I prefer to flash TWRP to my recovery partition and flash SuperSU v2.82 and install Busybox after I've created my final kernel, but to include them in yours I believe you use PoC to include your recovery.img and Rootkernel to include your SU.zip and Busybox.​

Once your folder/s are set up you need to put your kernel.sin and TA.img in the PoC/Kernel Kit folder. I'm using the kernel.sin because it's the first format you come across when opening your .ftf with your favorite zip program, but PoC can use any format of kernel. So once you're at this stage we'll use the PoC tool first.

1. Click the DOUBLECLICKME file and you will be asked to select your kernel.sin and TA.img

2. When you get to the next step answer each of the following as follows...

dm-verity - y

Sony ric - y

Force-encypt - y for me but personal preference.​

...once it's done it will build a new_boot.img.

3. Open a cmd prompt window in the Rootkernel/Kernel Kit folder (alt + right click) then type/copy & paste the following...

rootkernel new_boot.img PoC_rk_194.img​

...(you can change PoC_rk_194.img to whatever name you want btw) and answer each of the following as follows...

Sony RIC - y

TWRP - n

DRM fix - n

Busybox - n​

...then once it's finished it will build a PoC_rk_194.img ready to be flashed to your phone.

Thanks to...

If you have no interest in the game, I will appreciate if you just download/rate the app and give me some advice about the UI.

[General Questions and Answers] justasug:
My Sony Xperia Ion won't turn on any more. I am getting a blanks screen, no LED, nothing.

I wanted to change my phone's hostname. To do that I edited the "build.prop" file as mentioned in a guide and added it. After that my phone got stuck in a boot loop. It got to the Sony logo and then rebooted again and again.

I tried flashing the stock firmware with Flashtool, but it's giving me just an error, with no error messages.

I had to do the "hard reset" (holding volume up and power until it vibrated 3 times) to turn it off to get into flashmode.

Now I don't know what happened, but the phone stopped turning on at all. The screen is just blank, no LEDs, not even when I connect it to the charger.

I followed the [GUIDE] Recover 2012 and newer XPERIAs from SOFT-brick thread and now I'm at this point. I would have asked in it for help, but I can't post there yet.

So, my question is: does anyone have any suggestions? My last hope is waiting to see if the battery will drain in a couple of days and I can get the red LED again, to try and flash the stock image (or kernel if I figure out how to get just the kernel) back. But will that work, because I didn't have luck flashing the stock image even before?

EDIT: the guides mention draining my phone's battery. How can I do that if it's unresponsive? Some posts suggest leaving it connected to a charger for a few days. How can it drain the battery if it's connected to a charger? I guess I have nothing to lose, but can someone confirm that this will indeed help me drain the battery and get a LED signal back?

Thanks in advance
[General Questions and Answers] mirhl:
Basically the very thing that ****ed up my S years ago.

I still have to understand why the hate between normal notepads and build.prop.

EDIT: an idea

Anyway, the tip is: hard shutdown the phone as soon as possible (i.e. until you feel the 3 vibration)

This way you won't waste your precious battery juice needed for reparations (and require to externally recharge battery like I had to do)

Now, if you have unlocked BL.. I guess it's easier to recover and all with fastboot, but you can do it wirh flashtool too.

The problem now is just that its latest version is bugged. You'd have to use 0.9.18.6 or older.
[General Questions and Answers] justasug:
Thanks for the suggestion.

Totally bugged or? Because I successfully used the latest version to flash the stock firmware recently. Do you mean I won't be able to use the latest version now specifically because of this or?

I took up the advice from the other thread and put it to charge. Now I have a solid red LED again and I guess I can follow the thread. I'm only worried about screwing it up now by using the latest version of Flashtool.
[General Questions and Answers] justasug:
I managed to get a red LED again. I also managed to get it into flashmode, but the phone runs out of battery before the whole FTF file can be flashed (always stops at same percentage). I charged the phone all night long.

Fastboot mode seems to work fine.

Is there a way for me to flash the whole stock firmware in fastboot mode? I have the FTF file, which contains a bunch of SIN files when I unpack it.

EDIT:

I fixed it. Details can be found in the general thread about recovering Sony Xperia phones.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] weasley:
There is no way removing SIM LOCK by Flashing. If EE I believe you have to wait after 6 months before requesting Unlocking Code, The other option is to search on eBay for Paid Unlocking.

I red enough threads about the cons of losing drm keys so i dont get the idea behind backing up the keys...

No DRM Keys = no warrenty

You also lose the features of having such but a patched kernel literally brings them all back

However what if this device grows unpopular with age, at that point you'd have to learn how to patch kernels yourself or update the tools that allowed such.
