Was this something that recently broke with latest update? I used to be able to press any button on my remote and it would turn my TV on. This does not work anymore.

Any advice before I try a Factory Reset? (I'd like to avoid Factory reset if it's a known issue that wont be fixed with a Reset)

Is it safe to do this security update on my LGMP260 rooted device? Or will I lose my root?
[LG K20 Plus Questions & Answers] boxes:
Not safe.
[LG K20 Plus Questions & Answers] bigbpc:
Currently, of you want the latest stock updates while rooted, you'll have to use the unroot/unbrick method with the latest kdz file. I've tried it with flashify/flashfire in the past to no avail. Ota's also don't seem to like custom recoveries on this device. Best of luck.

Alternatively, use a custom rom like incipient and dirty flash when new updates happen.
[LG K20 Plus Questions & Answers] boxes:
You can use LG uppercut to restore the stock kdz, which you can get from here:

Make sure it's the MTP region version

https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-mp260-firmwares/firmwares/

If you restore the kdz, you lose root & everything. Then the existing root method may not work.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Jack_J18:
Hi,

So in the past I used Xperifix to root my Xperia XZ Premium, and it worked a charm, but since then I have removed the root using Magisk in order to try and update my phone. At the time I didn't realise you can't update a rooted phone using the phone's automatic updater, or whatever it is lol. I tried to update it using Xperifix, but now Xperifix isn't working for me. I've contacted them for support but I've been waiting a few days for a reply, so I don't know when I'll be able to update my phone using Xperifix. I'm wondering if there's another way I can update it? I flashed my phone (whatever that means I'm not even sure myself) and it reset my phone, but reset it to version 7.1.1, and I don't know how to update it to the latest Android version without Xperifix.

Does anyone know how I can update my phone? I'm not used to rooting my phone so if you're going to use any tech talk please keep it basic ?

Thank you.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Didgesteve:
The phone will still be unlocked, but perhaps your attempt to update it may have removed the recovery partition, but I'm surprised if it did. Usually OTA updates instantly fail on rooted phones and never get to do anything.

To get the latest firmware:

Download newflasher.

Install the Sony ADB drivers, to do this you will need to boot your Windows10 into safe mode and use 'driver signing disabled'

Read up on Xperiafirm, download the latest firmware for your region.

Put a copy of the Newflasher into the firmware download folder.

Unplug your phone from the PC.

Turn your phone off completely Power and Vol up (+) until it vibrates three times.

Run the newflasher and when prompted, plug your phone back in while holding the Volume up (+). Once the process has started you can let go.

Once you have the latest stock firmware on and running ok, try flashing with Xperiafix again.

Edit: you will need to download the very latest version of Xperiafix you CANNOT use and old version on the latest firmware. Sony have incorporated an anti-fix in the latest builds, using the old fix may well damge your phone.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Jack_J18:
Thank you, I am trying this now. As for driver signing disabled, is that the same as driver signature enforcement? That's the only thing I was able to find on Google that was related to driver signing.

Thanks.

EDIT: I am not being prompted to plug my phone back in. It asks if I want to download GordanGate, which I've done, and afterwards it says "No usb device with vid". I've tried it with and without my phone plugged in.

EDIT 2: I didn't realise I had to put my phone into flash mode BEFORE running Newflasher. It's running now though.

EDIT 3: It worked, managed to update my phone. Thank you. Although Xperifix still isn't working. I'll see if I can find a solution. Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.

Could you please let me know which stock ROM should I download and flash, or any other steps I should follow to get stock Lollipop on this device?

Thank you for your reply, I am still learning all of this since I am a newbie.

I have a SM-N9005. And yes, the bootloader and firmware are weird because I think it I got it soft bricked before so I fixed it in any way I could at that time.

What would you recommend me to download and flash now? I would like to flash stock 5.0 for Latin America if possible.

Thanks! :good:

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jtrosky:
I've searched and searched and searched, but I can't seem to find a clear answer...

I recently purchased an Eonon-branded PX5 Android 8.0 MTCE_WWW unit (which I believe is VERY similar to MTCE_KLD). I really want to start "tinkering" with the unit (Viper4Android, custom ROMs, etc), but I want to make sure I have backups of the stock MCU and stock Android install before I start messing with anything - so that I can always get back to where I started if need be. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time getting the MCU and Android firmware files from Eonon (still trying though!) - so I want to see if there is any way that I can create backups of the unit myself.

If I root the unit, can I then make full backups of the MCU and Android? Meaning backups that I can use to recover the unit if something goes wrong? If so, what applications should I use to create such backups? I've very familair with Android devices and rooting in general, but I'm used to having and using a custom recovery for stuff like this - but my understanding is that there is no custom recovery for these units (TWRP, CWM, etc).

Can someone please help me out here? I feel comfortable rooting the device via the adb method. But once I have it rooted, how do I create full MCU and Android backups?

Thank you very much!
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] marchnz:
Hi,

1. Android ROM - use OTG method to get ROM extract.

2. MCU - you can't. Get original MCU or later from forums or vendor.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jtrosky:
Thanks for the response... That's what I was afraid of - no way to back up the MCU. Unfrotunately, my unit is an MTCE_WWW (Eonon) and I haven't had much luck finding recent stock MCU's online - and so far, Eonon hasn't cooperated either (what's the big deal??). <sigh>

I'm not familair with the "OTG method" (did a few searches, but what I saw was just custom revoery to OTG device?). I did finally just root it and at least got a full Titantium Pro backup - better than nothing I guess.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] papoose515:
what can i do with my rooted v30..other than installing a custom rom
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
What can't you do with a rooted phone? It's now completely your phone, and the carrier/OEM can't force updates on you to brick it like they did with the Note 7. You can install/uninstall anything you wish. You can increase functionality through various apps, modules that require root -- like using [MENTION=9023361]Whiskeyomega[/MENTION]'s mods to give yourself a dual speaker mode or to force quad DAC high impedance mode.

But for me it's a principle. I won't own a computer where I am not the "admin" -- it's MY computer. Same with my handheld computer we call smartphones. ROOT = admin. Until you are rooted on your smartphone, the carrier/OEM REALLY owns the phone.

But this question is going to be moved by a mod to Q&A section soon, because only releases are posted here.

[MENTION=5426778]Prattham[/MENTION]: Regardless of whether the screen is set to 1440p or 1080p you're still driving the same number of physical pixels on the device. Any power savings you get is not because of the screen but because of a reduction of the GPU's load. While the test may not meet scientific standards it does meet real world standards, which is more important. A savings of 2 to 3% as shown in the video easily fits within the margin of error for such a test, and thus there is no benefit to switching to 1080p.

Did Verizon just provide me the bootloader unlock code?

so I had an interesting conversation with a Verizon rep (who was actually pretty knowledgeable) and told him the situation and why I wanted the unlock codes. He agreed that it was stupid to hold back the codes from device owners who would freely wave the warranty. He said he looked through all of their code files and found a bunch of codes for sim unlock or whatever, but nothing stating "Bootloader Unlock Code"....

However, he said he found a random code that might be what i'm looking for. I have no idea what this is for or what it does, so please don't use it and blame me if your device gets bricked.
