[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MashNuke:
Hello everybody,

As you can see in the title I am searching to know how i can root my Sony Xperia XZ Premium G8141 47.1.A.12.34, that I have flashed thanks to this thread : https://xdaforums.com/xz-premium/ho...shtool-0-9-t3736217/post75276892#post75276892

After Flashing the photo camera doesn't take pictures anymore (take green photos but video works) but I know that this is a DRM problem. I find a tutorial on XDAdevelopers that tell you how to root and fix the DRM on a Sony Xperia XZ Premium : https://xdaforums.com/xz-premium/development/hack-mod-sony-xperia-xz-premium-twrp-t3695171

I Checked first if my Sony was compatible with this tutorial, read everything before doing stupid things and all seams to be ok. I downloaded the XperiFix, installed it and put my device on fast boot mode before I launched the program. But after the rooting process, when my device was rebooted, the camera problem was still present and my device wasn't rooted too.

So I want to know if anyone have the same problem or know how to fix that or have an alternative solution. Is it the flash tool that I used that isn't compatible with the Xperifix software or something else ?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] madshark2009:
Well you unlocked your bootloader.

unlocking the bootloader will erase the TA partition which includes camera features (DRM), and now they are deleted along with whats left in TA partition.

now you can not go back to a natural device.

good news is if you follow the procedure properly on this link:

https://xdaforums.com/xz-premium/development/hack-mod-sony-xperia-xz-premium-twrp-t3695171

(2. Use XperiFIX to get what you want)

then you should get your DRM fix patch, read the thread carefully, youre gonna have to do it all over again as you lost TA partition which you can never get back now.

So go do procedure 1 + 2 carefully, you will get it fixed and you will also have a rooted phone ;)

if its not working try to flash a previous version FW that supports xperifix im not sure the one you have is supported but most likely it is, then redo the process in the thread and see if it works out.

hit the thanks if I was a help
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] MashNuke:
Thanks for the help and for the very quick reply !

I'll try too flash a older version firmware for my device, but I didn't find links to download the right version for my actual firmware (G8141 47.1.A.12.34), so I want to no if it's a problem to take an other version (as exemple G8141 47.1.A.12.34 from XperiFirm) and flash it to my device ?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] madshark2009:
i rechecked and i think the xperifix should work on any firmware so try it out

if you are unlocked just download the xperifix on that link and just run it as instructed and it should work

also check if you followed correctly:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=8&v=XeYlIHnSuOM

also check if you installed the firmware that suits your device G1841/G1842 they are 2 different things

flash whats suited.

if that didnt work, you can download the firmware in the video using xperifirm and do the procedure again.

and to answer your question, i dont really understand you already have 47.1.A.12.34 why would you want to install it again? im not getting the question...

My device is htc m9 s-off locked T mobile set, i have install official nougat setup RUU from htc site , can u please advise should i update my phone through computer usb debuging and running RUU setup from official sit??? Please ans. Bcoz some one told me if i do it my phone will hang.... thanx in advance
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
To go to oreo you need to use the ota method.

If your carrier doesn't offer oreo you can either wait or change the identity of the phone to take the firmware from another sku.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
The M9 gets three years old in a couple of days. It's EOL since its second birthday. It hasn't received and it is never going to receive an official Oreo update that you could install via a RUU or the OTA function.

If you only want to flash an already available RUU then I'd suggest you to follow the RUU section of the ReadMe thread.

Hello to everyone, here there is the last updated version of MIUI 8 before the team patchrom abandoned the project, so this rom is updated to 30/06/17. I have ported this rom from here so all credits go to [MENTION=7653578]Kuck7610[/MENTION].

NOT WORKING

Offline charging (I've tried everything without success. The phone stucks at bootlogo and doesn't show the offline charging animation)

Xposed

If someone is able to fix these problems (such as [MENTION=5696327]anderson mendes[/MENTION], [MENTION=7096343]Dio_S[/MENTION], [MENTION=6519039]jhenrique09[/MENTION] or [MENTION=5275680]kowakx[/MENTION]), he could help me;)

HOW TO INSTALL

1. Do a nandroid backup from TWRP

2. Format system, cache, dalvik-cache, data and (optional, only if you have all your files in your sd card) internal storage

3. Format your data partition from ext4 to f2fs in order to make the rom faster since MIUI rom is heavy for our device

4. Install the rom, gapps and I suggest you to install this kernel for a better experience

5. Reboot and enjoy​

DOWNLOAD

MEDIAFIRE

HOW TO FREE UP SPACE IN DATA PARTITION

MIUI rom is heavy for our device mostly if you want all MIUI experience, but if you want to free up space you can, before installing the rom, delete from data folder inside the zip everything except "app" and "cust" folders. Inside app folder you can delete customized, recommended and vanward_applist. Inside noncustomized folder you can choose what you want to maintain.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tfdeere:
To all the AT&T Tilt owners out there....has anyone had any issues with the chrome plating on the front buttons? specifically, has it worn off on any of the buttons? part of the chrome around the IE button has flaked off a bit. This is my second tilt, and the first one did the same thing. The chrome on the email button flaked off. Has anyone else run into this?

I called AT&T yesterday about it...they directed me to HTC. The guy at HTC told me that it would be considered phone damage, and will take $150 to $350 to replace the button. That's insane!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
time to bust out the testers paint and the sequins.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] captainsensible2002:
Bearing in mind the Tytn II does not have those particular buttons chromed, it sounds like a manufacturing defect, as the chromed buttons on the 2 Tytn IIs that I have had have been fine - presuming that HTC apply the chrome to those buttons for AT&T, it may be that the process used is slightly different? Or the plastic is not prepped in the same way - either way, it sounds like a warranty issue, but you may need more evidence from other tilt users.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
Wear and tear baby, they expect that the cosmetics may rub off from using it. Doesn't take away from the usefullness of the phone. YOU rubbed it off by using your fingers on it too much, it didn't just rub off on it's own.

Just stating what they might tell you, I've had to drop that line before on people. Not that I agree with it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
The 'Messaging' button is chipped off from the face of my Tilt. The others buttons, which I use a LOT more, are fine though.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kahibbi:
pocket use ...

The IE button and the Messaging button have done this on my phone. I don't use those buttons so it has rubbed off from being carried around in my pocket. I carried the phone in a case for more than half the time I've owned it (since released in early October), so it must be pretty sensitive stuff. Doesn't keep the phone from working, just looks a little weird at night when I see a little square now light up where the Messaging button used to be.

What I recently noticed was the whole set of buttons on the face of the phone is sliding around inside the recessed area. Doesn't keep the buttons from working, but it didn't use to do this. I took it by the ATT store and had me call their phone replacement number. I explained to them the situation and they sent me out another phone. The thing is, this one does the same thing, just not so easily ... meaning that the button set still slides around, but just a little. If I'd known this, I'm not sure I would have bothered exchanging, especially since this one doesn't even have the new ROM, which obviously makes me think this is a refurbished unit. But there's no marks so I guess I'll see how it runs.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
My buttons just began doing this as well. As far as exchanging my device, since it is working fine otherwise, I'm going to wait until September (month 11 of 12) to exchange mine. If I time it as good as I did with my 8125, I'll never be out of warranty since each unit they send you comes with a 60 day warranty against defects.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bshakil:
I thought i was the only one...i own HTC TYTN2

Chrome came off from the center joint of the "OK" "WIN" Keys... i mean the part under the DPAD. and ofcourse no one presses or rubs at that place.. since usually wear and tear is not covered in warranty..

i ordered this

http://cnn.cn/shop/tytn-iitilt-outer-keypad-p-2057.html

Button Icons are a bit different from the original one. but i am keeping it .. in case if more chrome comes out .... right now its pretty bearable...hope it stays like this
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] volcomnator999:
same here....all i have outlines on my internet explorer and messages buttons...the chrome plating seems to flake off so easily
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kamilzmielca:
no complaints here whatsoever. its still alive (except for minor scratches from the stylus on screen) and no flaking or anything. everything is still in tact :)

oh.. hello everyone, btw. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] _Alex_:
Mail button is flaking for me.

I've heard about this happening as early as November 2007 and I thought it would never happen to me. Guess it just took some time.

It's not really that ugly, so I'm not bothering to try to replace it. I'd be upset if outside the icons started to chip off though.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] aksd:
The silver line arround the earpiece has gone white for me, maybe sweat has corroded it? Also my phone panel has slowly started squeaking/creaking a bit on the sides of the front panel :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sherpa:
I've had my Tilt since its release (October 5th) and not a single cosmetic issue. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
Wow. I really like that. Chrome to me is rarely done right. It should be an accent, and not in places where it will wear easily.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] digitalninjas:
My package from CNN just arrived today, I'll post pics of my TyTN II conversion in a few hours :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cincy1020:
Hi:

Are you sure this is correct? Believe me, I hope you are right, but for some reason with each replacement I have gotten they keep telling me the original warranty date still applies. Lol, I hope that made sense :p
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
What they told you is true, soft of. Whenever AT&T replaces you phone under warranty, the new device has either a 60 day warranty, or the balance of your original warranty, whichever is longer.

Say your phone is 1 week away from being out of warranty, and it suddenly fails... When AT&T replaces it for you, they give you a 60 day warranty on the refurb unit in case there is an issue with it. This is not something they will go out of their way to tell you, but it allowed me to keep getting a fresh 8125 every 45 days until the Tilt came out.

It also came in handy whenever the replacement 8125 was one of those pesky G4 models that couldn't be CID unlocked...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cincy1020:
That is GREAT to know!

Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AllTheWay:
Don't keep your keys and your phone in the same pocket ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
I know what you are speaking of, but I have had no issue with my Tilt. The chrome is still perfect, but the keys do slightly float inside the housing. Mine has done this since new, but I really don't notice unless I try to slide the keys. I never notice this while actually using the phone. The only other blemish on the phone is my screen protector is obviously worn right where the X appears in the top right corner of the screen. That is only visible when the screen is off though. I'll wait a little longer to replace the screen protector. At least its not as bad as the screen of my old iPAQ was. You could see the lines from where I was dragging cards playing solitaire on it.

-Jay
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gtdRR:
My Mail button is down to a little triangle in the corner and my Windows button is missing a Window. LOL. By the way this started happening to my phone in late November and I got the phone on it's release date.

Has this happened to anyone who has recently purchased the phone or to someone who purchased it a few months after it was released??????????????????
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
I bought mine late October, and did an in-store exchange at the 30 day mark for a new one in late November. I was having an intermittent call issue that I just preferred to have a new phone, rather than chance it getting worse and then getting a refurb another month later. Still, no major cosmetic issues. I always keep my phone in a leather pouch when not in use, and in the cradle when in the car.

-Jay
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gtdRR:
Me too, always in the leather pouch, I never put my phone down on a hard surface. When on my desk I always place it on something soft like post its or a book/magazine. When driving it's always in my leather belt clip except I put the clip on the seatbelt. All this and my chrome buttons still get messed up.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
To the chrome chipping off. .

This all may be due to not frequent cleanings ;). I clean mine a lot, and use the buttons a lot and they are fine.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cushcalc:
Button labels wrong

A

bit

different? They look completely wrong to me! What good is it?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gtdRR:
I think some are going to chip no matter what you do, mine for example. I am super anal about it, clean it all the time, always have it in a protective case, never set it down on hard surfaces for it to vibrate on. And then there is my friend (who bought his Tilt in Nov) across the street who drops it, throws it, carries it in his pocket, and once a while uses his leather pouch. He rarely cleans it so it's always dusty. All that torture to his phone but his buttons are fine. THAT SUCKS!!!

If you're Tilt is from batch A, your outta luck. But if it's from batch B then you have no worries.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Mine is probably from "batch B", I do both after I realize how I treat my phone, I clean it :p.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bshakil:
Yeah but you can program the Buttons accordingly ... I dont like the existing positions anyway... but its personal preference

Its good because it costs 10$ instead of 150 to 300$ At&T is asking for replacing the buttons
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
Mine has never really gotten dirty, but I will occasionally wipe the phone down with a soft cotton cloth. I never use any cleaners, soaps, or polishes.

-Jay
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
Considering the $290 price difference, personally I would remap the buttons and get used to it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] laakness:
I have an original launch day unit and the left half of my messaging envelope is gone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ckthunda:
so has anyone actually replaced the keypad? I just ordered mine and for some reason it has 2

IE keys on it... If you do please post pics
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
If you got it from ATT, send it back and ask for a new one. Can you post a pic of that--it just looks to awkward :\.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dewhut:
i'm having this problem as well, i first noticed my end key shaped a little funny now my messaging icon is holding on for dear life but it's 2 lines away from a white box and 1 of my windows rubbed off lol. i've had the phone since november so i'm well within my 1 year warranty but i don't think at&t or htc will do anything about it. i've been lookin at replacement keypads but can only find the tilt keypad. if anyone tries it please post a guide as the buttons are just a matter of re-mapping. on a side note, i miss the rubber feel of my qwerty :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
Look in the rom section... I think the file you are looking for is called TiltKeyboardFix.cab or something like that... Its for people running stock Kaiser ROM's on a Tilt...

-Jay
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gthing:
My keys are trashed. Instead of a green phone or red phone I have big red a green blobs. The IE key is just a circle, and the chrome is coming off of the other keys.

By the way, no remapping is necessary. You can get a replacement keypad with the same layout and less chrome. Check it: http://cnn.cn/shop/tytn-iitilt-outer-keypad-p-3159.html
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] biofilter69:
i cut my finger on the end key when the metal part lifted up and i didnt notice.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] technillion:
No big deal...

The paint on my TyTN II was scraping off my original DPAD after about a year. So I replaced it with this one...http://cnn.cn/shop/tytn-iitilt-outer-keypad-p-2057.html. I use AE Button Plus to swap the buttons. At $10, the replacement was a no brainer.

It took about 30 minutes because I went really slow and was extra careful not to break or lose anything. It was actually very simple to swap out...just make sure you have the right size screw driver/torq driver tools.

I'll replace the DPAD again with the original one...http://cnn.cn/shop/tytn-iitilt-outer-keypad-p-3159.html and any other cosmetic parts needed to help get my eBay bids up.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pyraxiate:
My buttons have gotten a bit hazy looking from minor scratches, but I dont have any issues with the chrome plating on it. I use one tilt for while im at work ( so it can get all beat up and it doesnt matter too much ) and I keep my pretty one in a side carrying case for when i go out :D

In either case though, both have their chrome intact.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] thatruth132:
i just replaced it

done yesterday
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] willis2483:
My end call button is a red blob, my messaging button is a square, and my start buton/windows button is about halfway broken off...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] <insertwittyusernamehere>:
yeah this has happened to my soft keys as well. this may or may not be because i dropped it more than once.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Proto732:
Same thing here ... IE and Messaging. Got mine in Oct 07.

How complicated is it to install one of those replacement button pads?

Do you have to completely disassemble the phone, avoiding all sorts of super tiny, hidden, ready to snap plastic tabs???
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sgtchili:
Is there a picture/video guide floating around specific to changing the d-pad? Or is it the same procedure as changing the lcd screen?

Thanks

My tilt has never ever shown any signs of flaking :) I've had it for about 14 months

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Gator5000e:
I can not tell from the site if that is a do it yourself repair or do you send the phone to them for repair. Do you know?

Also, if you click next under the Chrome and Gray pad, the next page is an all chrome pad that matches the Tilt's stock pad.

Thanks for posting this and please post if you know the answer to my question.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] higherbeing:
1st tilt only the windows button lost part of the flag, sold that one for an Iphone, sold the iphone 6 months later to get my beloved tilt back... no issues since.

btw key pad is really easy to replace, it just takes guts to take apart a $400 device and put it back together... Also I dont know if that is just for me, but my tilt has the warranty void sticker on the bottom part of the phone, so technically speaking ur not breaking the warranty by taking apart the LCD... Now obviously that can be debated... But my first tilt i broke the LCD, replaced it, but the SIM wasnt working anymore, I sent it back to AT&T and they swapped it under warranty... So there you go, taking apart that part of you phone does not void your warranty
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] r0sh:
mine is great using it roughly with no issues of the chrome paint coming off in any way or form, cant say the same with other part of my tilt lol....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Teej53214:
This is happening to my phoner on the End Call key... sigh... Is is easy to replace these buttons does anyone know? If so, are there ones a diffret color than chrome? Maybe black?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] TSoprano:
so I just ordered replacement chrome buttons..

Is there any way to pop the old ones out from the front or do i have to take apart the lcd to replace the button pad??
