I would advise you to not just blindly unlock the bootloader on your Z5c if you haven't done so already. Doing so on the Z5c is irreversible and has permanent consequences unless you prepare in advance / take necessary precautions. (Side note: it's because of stuff like this that I've learned to always search and read up on any potential pitfalls when it comes to doing bootloader unlocks on specific models of phones before just jumping right in!!! Sony is not entirely forthcoming in their warnings on their site about what you lose when you unlock!)

The "necessary precautions" involve backing up what is called the TA partition of the phone before unlocking the bootloader. When you unlock the bootloader, the phone zeroes out all of the DRM keys stored in this sector that are unique to your particular phone (not phone model, your specific unit! if you lose them you can never get them back! and you can't take copies of keys from another Z5c and flash them to your phone unless you want a permanent brick that will never power back on again!). So best to back this up beforehand, both so that you have the option of returning to COMPLETE stock in the future if you so desire (re-lock bootloader, etc.), but also so that you can reflash the keys back to TA while retaining the unlocked bootloader, having the best of both worlds.

Unfortunately, this is a bit of a pain to do, admittedly, since TA partition is normally heavily guarded. It's supposed to be impossible to access, but a bug in older firmwares can be exploited to gain access to it even with a locked bootloader. So this means you have to actually downgrade back to Android 6.0 Marshmallow *just temporarily*, long enough to make a backup of the TA partition. After that, you can re-upgrade back to 7.1 Nougat and proceed with bootloader unlock.

If you decide not to go to the trouble, that's fine, but at least you will be making an informed decision in advance, rather than only finding out about what you lost after it's gone, robbing you of choice. 🙂

Link to TA backup utility: https://xdaforums.com/t/universal-dirtycow-based-ta-backup-v2.3514236/

To downgrade, you'll need to get yourself a copy of Flashtool and a Sony Z5c Marshmallow ROM file; I can provide links to these in a PM if you want to go down this path. The firmware download is nearly 3 gigs, just FYI.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Adamell0:
Please PM me those links if it's not a problem, while the phone is just one of many laying in my drawers having options is always a good thing :).
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] nlra:
Check your PM for links and general overview of how to accomplish downgrade/TA backup/upgrade.

Your kernel is also ready, tested, and attached.

Note that this is just the raw kernel with OTG patches included. If you end up backing your TA partition up, you will want to patch this kernel image with the latest version of rootkernel (which adds additional patches to restore functionality lost after bootloader unlock, but are not patches that require a kernel re-compile) and then flash that version.

Also, just in case it wasn't clear in the original post, these patches do not allow you to seamlessly use both traditional non-powered OTG as well as powered OTG...it's one or the other. Non-powered OTG will stop working, and OTG/host mode will only be possible if a power source is also applied. It is possible to disable the powered OTG mode and revert to regular non-powered mode, but it has to be done with a terminal command, and it will return back to powered-only OTG mode after the phone is rebooted.

I'm trying to get my phone to connect to it...in any way...I used to be able to sync my phone (AT&T Tilt) via bluetooth, but now when I try, the phone gets user authorization, etc., (meaning IT can do what IT needs to), but WMDC does nothing.

Then, the sync fails, and the device says, "To synchronize this device, you must install ActiveSync 4.5 or newer on your desktop computer."

The problem...Windows Vista doesn't use ActiveSync of course...it uses the windows mobile device center.

When I try to connect via usb, then on the computer, a dealie pops up in the lower right for "safely removing hardware". It has HTC USB sync listed. My tilt tries to connect via usb, but it fails, saying the same thing, "To synchronize this device, you must install ActiveSync...blah blah blah."

I don't even know why this is happening like this...I normally don't sync too often (since I normally use my phone alone), but I was trying to get a new radio on my phone to help with another problem (see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=365270&highlight=call+ended+00:00 )

but I can't even sync anything, so I can't use the tool to get the new radio on.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AllTheWay:
Put your phone into tri color mode and you will be able to flash.

Power button + Camera button (hold them) press stylus into reset. HOld all 3. Tri-color screen will appear.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] andaroo:
have you got the update to the drivers for WMDC, mine didnt work before I downloaded this update, oh and just remember, in windows, if it does work, RESTART fixes a lot of problems!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subversive Asset 2.0:
where would the update for the drivers for WMDC be?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] unwired4:
Change the setting in USB to PC, in settings, connection tab. Try it with advanced functionality on.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subversive Asset 2.0:
I've tried it both ways. With advanced functionality ON, then the PC doesn't even recognize the device HTC USB Sync.

With advanced fuctionality OFF, then the pc recognizes HTC USB Sync, Windows Mobile Device Center recognizes nothing, and then activesync fails with the message, "To synchronize, get activesync 4.5 blah blah blah"

I used the device with an XP virtual machine I had, and XP + activesync has no problems seeing the device. However, MICROSOFT OUTLOOK in the XP virtual machine cannot see the device, so I can't correctly sync emails, contacts, tasks, or calendar icons. When I tried, the only thing that happened was that it deleted all of my calendar items (AGAIN!) and then said that "ActiveSync cannot synchronize Email, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks and Notes because Outlook is not installed on Windows PC 3. To synchronize, disconnect the device, install and run Outlook, and then reconnect the device and try again."

Outlook IS installed in the XP vmware (windows PC 3)...but it can't see the device for some reason.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subversive Asset 2.0:
I decided in the end that I could go without a new radio. I'll just find a way to fix my problem in a different way
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] unwired4:
With it "on", its not a USB connection. Whilst it uses the USB lead, it actually creates an RNDIS connection which uses IP to communicate. The device and pc should create a small private IP network. If your device can't even be seen by the Vista PC when advanced is on, then there is something blocking IP traffic, like an over zealous firewall. Try turning the firewall off temporarily. Also try disconnecting the pc from any other network and then plugging the device in.

I assume you have run windows update in Vista to ensure that you have the latest version of WMDC 6.1

With advanced "off", the device is using a traditional USB connection. Try deleting any existing partnerships and try a different USB port.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JPHCCFC:
i have a similar problem however when mobile device center starts up it just gets the standard stopped running vista message and trys to restart unsuccessfully!

This may help you out with your problems however cant seem to resolve mine :(

http://modernnomads.info/wiki/index...+Device+Center+Troubleshooting#Beforeyoustart
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subversive Asset 2.0:
That's an interesting way of referring to it...the thing is...I currently do have my firewall off...would a router (dorm or home) block this? Because I have NEVER gotten advanced network fuctionality to ever work--when I was at home, my dad had a router set up and when I'm on campus, the dorm has a router on.

Even without it connected to any other network, it does not work. And I am using the latest WMDC 6.1 but still, it doesn't work.

The strange thing is...it works with ActiveSync in a Windows XP vmware machine (partially...it won't allow me to use outlook)...

Deleting existing partnerships deletes more stuff from my device deletes more stuff (my contacts and calendar are gone) -_-. Deleting existing partnerships on comp doesn't help..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subversive Asset 2.0:
What I did from there was I uninstalled the drviers that correspond with the HTC Sync USB and the advanced network functionality (it's near the bottom of the link), and then I restarted again...now I seem able to sync...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GuySparkz:
i was connecting fine until i enabled vistas firewall and then it wont stop syncing. if i disable it, it will sync. i went through the exceptions list to allow sync but it still wont sync anyone know a fix?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] icek:
Mobile Device Centre was working fine for me until about a week ago. Then it just stopped working ! My device was ok because it would sync in XP SP3 without any problems, but not in Vista. I tried repairinng, uninstalling, reinstalling without any success, I tried Advance Network Functionality and still no luck. I also tried disabling my firewall and trying again and still NO !!!. After searching the internet and trying the above, I nearly gave up until I decided to do the following :-

REMOVE ALL drivers related to the device i.e MS RNDIS adapter from network adapters in device manager AND the HTC USB drivers which are created when the device is connected while the Advance Network Functionality button is unchecked on your device (within settings -> Connections -> USB to PC )

UNINSTALL windows mobile device centre

DISABLE your firewall

INSTALL windows mobile device centre 6.1 (downloaded from MS)

connect your device - ensure the Advance Network Functionality button is checked

CONNECT device, let the drivers load and it should be ready to sync

ENABLE your firewall

The above method was the way it worked for me after trying numerous methods. Looking back, I believe my problem started when I unchecked Advance Network Functionality for some reason !
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
I don't think it's possible to get Advanced Networking Functionality to work with a Bluetooth Connection, only through USB. Even then it has to be a high quality USB port it's plugged into. My case is a good example in that I couldn't enable Advanced Networking Functionality or Activesync simply wouldn't connect. Since I was having unreliable connections from my VIA chipset old as the hills USB 1.1 motherboard ports, I installed a quality NEC chipset USB 2.0 Hi-Speed PCI adapter card and now on the same machine I can run USB Activesync connections with either option perfectly well and it stays connected until I unplug the phone. How are your USB ports?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] josefcrist:
uninstall active sync then reinstall. that is what worked for me.

You can be sued for false advertising
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Ogre6473:
They can't be sued for not doing the update because it's not false advertising, nor are they under any contractual obligations

An advertisement is used to sell a product or service. Companies change their mind on updates and upgrades all the time. It's not illegal because the product wasn't sold with the promise of that upgrade.

Example: Every time there's a game developers conference, or CES or E3 there's promises of various kinds made by Sony and Microsoft, trailers for epic looking games etc. They even have working demos, yet many never see the light of day. How many times have they or the developers been sued for not releasing a planned product? Zero.
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Rocketfin:
The product was sold with the promise of the software upgrade, as Motorola has stated multiple times that the g family has a policy for one major upgrade. Your example doesn't make much sense, game developers don't sell the game saying it will have a feature and then not include it. You obviously can't sue for them not releasing a planned product, unless you pre-order it and never receive a refund.

[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] legolgel:
Hi, somebody has experience this issue? When dialing takes long time to hear the tone; the call goes normal and everything,but, when you are going to start the call simply takes longer than usual. I am actually using Simple mobile in the US (similar to TMobile)
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
I get that as well,on T-Mobile US.

Not on every call though,my guess it's a network issue & not hardware/software related.

I'll compare with the Note 8 when it arrives (pre-ordered on 8/24),I've subscribed to this thread,I'll post my results as soon as I've had 2-3 days of use.

To have a better apples-to-apples comparison,I'll try w/o VoLTE & WI-FI Calling / with each enabled / both enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] legolgel:
Cool, it may be a network issue too
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] CrypticVorttex:
It's really simple as to why this happenes, basically because you can't enable VOLTE your phone needs to connect to a 3g service before it can connect the call, this is why it's different everytime (depending on how close you are to a 3g mast). Flashing a custom recovery and making your own csc (with VOLTE enabled) might fix this but you can only test it
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] legolgel:
Interesting,didn't know that
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] CrypticVorttex:

[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] legolgel:
Totally solved, I flashed a CSC from a note 7 and worked beautifully. Now everything works as it should: fast calls, no more delays, voicemail icon, fast access to voicemail pressing the number 1 and the most important, 4g late... Which is awesome!View attachment 4267186
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
Ya got the CSC,or,a link to it?

I wouldn't mind giving it a go myself.................
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] legolgel:
I took it from the note 7 forum, but Is not perfect, still having the delay thing on the calls, and the signal drops a lot... Are you sure about it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
If you're having issues with it, I'm good.

It's just a minor inconvenience at worst, I don't miss any calls/messages,etc......

FWIW, I've compared to my T-Mobike US Note 8,it has no call delays at all....

Is obvious, but I don't think is a hardware issue

I recommend to install the csc code that I mentioned before, I have a week using it and is great, also you can add the data toggle editing the CSC code (because it comes from the S7)View attachment 4270750View attachment 4270751View attachment 4270752

Any totorial how to do this ? I will be grateful
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] legolgel:
Sure, I'll do it just give me a few minutes
[Samsung Galaxy Note FE Questions & Answers] legolgel:
Ok, let's get started...so, what you have to do is the following:

1) root your phone.

2) install TWRP.

3) this is mandatory, make a backup.

4) then, click on this link: https://xdaforums.com/note-7/development/utility-flashable-csc-selection-v1-0-t3450911 and download the convenient zip, there are two depending of the carrier.

5) flash it through TWRP and reboot the device, let it seat for a while.

6) at this point, everything should be fine; when you flash this zip some stuff will disappear from the status bar like the mobile data toggle.

7) this is optional. If you want to see the toggle on the status bar, we must add something to the CSC code. First of all, find the CSC folder located at /System,Omc and access to the carrier folder of your election (in my case was T-Mobile) and let's edit the others.xml file (you can use ES explorer to do this)

Inside the CSC code, find the following code line: <CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigDefQuickSettingItem>Wifi,Location,SilentMode,RotationLock,Bluetooth,WifiCalling,PowerSaving,AirplaneMode,Flashlight,Nfc,Sync,BlueLightFilter,Aod,AllShareCast,SecureFolder,DeviceVisibility,DormantMode<

Then write at the end MobileData. Save the changes and reboot your phone.
