Hi i have a Prophet but i destroyed it. Now i would like to buy another smartphone i want to buy a herald from Germany new (O2 XDA TERRA). But it has a rom in German and as i know it uses WM5. Is it simple and possible to install WM6 English or Greek (as i am from Greece) in this phone? In prophet i had installed WM6 after HardSPLED my phone. In this phone i have to do the same? Please don't become ungry with my thread ... Please do not hesitate to inform me...

Thank you in advance.
[Wing, P4350 General] maniakos84:
Please guys... Give me an answer... I know the question is too stupid for you but a simple answer may be useful for me.
[Wing, P4350 General] dougstoner:
It depends on your ispl number and what rom you intend on flashing to. Which rom are you planning on flashing to? Open touch doesn't require hard spl, so you can just use the uspl method.
[Wing, P4350 General] maniakos84:
So you mean that the method to install a different rom than the original is different from the prophet method? Is there a possibility that the device i will buy to be locked and never can install a different rom? Please inform me because i want to buy it immediately
[Wing, P4350 General] dougstoner:
You really have two options as far as flashing. You can hard spl or you can use the uspl. Uspl method seems to be safter than hard spl'ing. That being said, it really depends on what rom you are trying to flash to. If you go to ie. open touch, you can use the safer uspl method. If you go to ie touch it, you need to hard spl first.
[Wing, P4350 General] maniakos84:
Ok my friend thanks for your reply. I now started to understand what you mean. Does enyone know a link describing the way on how to install a diferrent rom from the original for first time? With the hard spl method and with the uspl method.
[Wing, P4350 General] dougstoner:
Here is the method for USPL....which I would recommend since it's safer.

Hard Spl

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=358225
[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
If the SPL is lower than 4.0.0.0, there is another way to flash... it's not perfect, it's been know to fail, and it does not reformat the memory thus you do not regain any wasted storage space, BUT it would at least give you a newer ROM...

1. Why do you need to fill up the memory?

* Developers need to test the behavior of Android phones in low storage

* Users need to understand the performance of Android phones in low storage

* Test storage (Flash, MMC, SDCARD) write speed (time)

* completely erase memory data, no tools can recover

2. What is Full Fill Storage?

A tool generates data to fill internal or external memory, and can generate fill data or delete fill data with a simple click.

3. How to use Full Fill Storage

* Click "Fill Int. Storage" to generate data to fill internal storage

* Click "Restore Int. Storage" to delete the internal storage padding data.

* Click "Fill Ext. Storage" to generate data to populate external storage

* Click "Restore Ext. Storage" to delete the padding data of the external storage.

* Filling is very safe and will not destroy any data

[Sony Xperia XA1 Questions & Answers] Darth343:
So my phone has been lagging a whole lot using the stock rom and I have decided that I'll try a custom rom to see if that changes anything. So I came here and saw this forum:

"https://xdaforums.com/xa1/development/half-gsi-oreo-8-1-t3902259"

I thought I'll try and so I unlocked my bootloader, only to have my phone be reset (not a problem, everything was backed up). It also boots with a warning "Device unlocked and can't be trusted".

Then I went on to download TWRP using this link in that post: "https://mega.nz/#!FQFXCYSY!DgxQRkaY1Eqq3B0fZLEQBNzUs0Zj80L6IzSHxdorQ3A" which is the TWRP 3.3.0.0 V2 IS FOR ALL USERS.

I didn't want to flash in the event it was the wrong recovery so I tried booting into it, fastboot boot recovery.img

It flashed, everything was ok and now the phone doesn't boot. It stayed in a boot loop. I went ahead and flashed recovery this time, no luck. Downloaded a recovery.img from another website and it didn't allow me to boot to android or recovery.

Is there a way to save my phone, I can't get another phone until August due to contract. It can still boot to fastboot and gets stuck when trying to boot to android. It being able to boot to fastboot makes me think theres a chance to flash a stock rom or any custom recovery and rom to get the phone working again. Any help? Thanks!
[Sony Xperia XA1 Questions & Answers] bigrammy:
OK use the boot.img and recovery.img made by [MENTION=490110]janjan[/MENTION] HERE. Under the heading ¨Downloads¨ see ¨Xperia XA1¨ and download the KERNEL + RECOVERY the boot.img and recovery.img are compatible with the G3121-G3112-G3125-G3116-G3123 devices on the applicable firmware.

Flash BOTH using fastboot. The boot.img is patched to allow TWRP to boot which it will never do using the stock boot.

If you wish to go back to stock then simply use FlashTool to flash the stock fotakernel.sin and boot.sin contained in the firmware for your device.

[Sony XA2 Ultra Questions & Answers] AlaskaLinuxUser:
I bought an XA2 Ultra, and decided to build AOKP pie on it. So I did. When I tried to boot it the first time, I took the attached picture of it booting up. Then it failed to boot. Then I tried to install Lineage pie, which also didn't boot.

At this point, I realized that my firmware was not up to date. I tried to update the firmware and killed my phone.

If anyone had Lineage pie installed, and wanted to test this AOKP pie, I'd be grateful. If Lineage pie works on your phone, then this should too, but it would be nice to get some feedback.

Just trying to decide if I should try to pick up another XA2 ultra or move on. If this works I'll probably get another one and make a thread in the proper development forum. Thanks.

The 360 camera add-on to the PH-1 is super easy to use and takes really good 360 photos but.... I am taking some 360 photos (and videos) of my house that I am selling and want to know the best way to get them out there on the web for everyone to see what I have for sale.

What is the best way to share them?:confused:

Essential has this informtion:

But not sure if this will really help with posting photos for selling my house...
[Essential Phone Accessories] gk1984:
The 360 content works anywhere that already supports 360 images. The image saved is just a flat image of all directions. The metadata attached to the file tells viewers how to render the image.

When I share, I usually just share the web link from Google Photos. That works in Chrome for desktop and mobile as well as the app. But for real estate, you'll probably be uploading it to their platform instead. In which case, you have to see if they support that kind of content.

Hi there, just got the phone last week. Forgive me if this question has been asked and answered before, but I did a search, and as far as I can tell this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=307787

Is the only one I see, and its not really the problem I am having so far as I can tell. My problem is that when listening to music the sound cuts off for a couple seconds (sometimes much longer) and then starts again. The music doesn't stop playing, the headphones just seem like they turn off and then back on again. I've updated to the Feb AT&T Rom from the HTC website thinking that the reported bluethooth improvement might fix it. Its still doing it.

Is there something out there that I am missing, do I need to do the headphone firmware upgrade as stated in the linked topic, or something thats not set up right with my phone? Do these bluetooth headphone just not work right with it?

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] ithehappy:
Hello fellas,

I have a query to you all who are using this device for more than six months up to a year, the Nokia 6.1 or Nokia 6 2018 edition, is this a problem free device? I am looking to purchase this this specific model is currently undergoing a sale in India and would like to pick it up for my mother, who is a senior citizen, so a few basic things I need to know.

I don't need much from a cheap phone. I just need to know the following things, is the earpiece volume of the device in-call loud enough? Is the loudspeaker itself loud enough? How much SoT are you getting on Pie? Is there any known problem occurring in long term? Because the reviews are not good of the device and that makes me wonder whether there is any real problem with the device or not.

I will really appreciate your useful inputs on this.
[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] jason2678:
No problem for me with call volumes.

Like anything, depends on what you're doing. I don't often run mine dead, but I'd say average 5 - 6 hours SoT mostly light web browsing extrapolating to if I did run it dead. It's standby battery drain isn't the greatest, but not terrible either. I often only charge it every other day, but I'm not a super heavy user.

I have lots of little complaints about the software. While I'm able to workaround or ignore them, I don't highly recommend this device. It's lots of little things. Double tap to wake is terribly unreliable. I've never got USB MTP file transfer to work at all and ADB is unreliable. I workaround that using SMB, but I doubt the average senior citizen has a file server set up if transfers to/from phone are needed. The camera is not very good; Google camera port makes it somewhat better. The RAM management is terrible; Nokia actually bundled a fscking third party "battery protection" task killer in the system. I could go on, but most of these land in the annoying category. They might well be stuff your mother would never notice.

On the upside, it's running Android Pie. Mine is currently installing the May 2019 security patch as I type this, and I only paid US $150 for it new, so it's got all that going for it.

I like to call it the most adequate phone ever. Lots of little aggravating problems, but nothing so bad as to make me buy something else (I bought it under duress - my primary phone had died, and backup had funky buttons). The hardware is pretty nice for the price point. If old Motorola (Google's Moto devs, not Levnovo!) had built the ROM for it, I bet it would be a killer low end mid-ranger. As it is, it is a little mediocre.
[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] ithehappy:
Thanks a ton for a really excellent well put feedback can't appreciate it more. Wish more people talked as clear as you.

Anyway, the camera part is a bit scary, I mean I don't understand to what extent it's 'not very good', I thought for the price its supposed to have a decent enough camera. My camera expectations from it is none whatsoever, but when you say not good, I wish I knew exactly against what I can relate it to.

That automatic task killing thing is terrible too.

Funny thing, I actually just bought my mother a Asus Zenfone Max M1 (not the PRO variant), and while the phone is good and all, I can't stand its ZenUI, and ironically it also has some RAM clearing stuff built-in, which for the life of me I can't disable. Other than that I hate the blue channel of the display, which is absurdly high, and no option to decrease it anywhere and the new 18:9 ratio is plain nonsense to my eyes. So I am returning it and thought as the Nokia 6.1 came in offer it would be a great buy, especially the price has gone down to 6999 INR (100 USD) under this sale.

Hmm, I am bit confused now. Not a very good camera, software inconsistencies and poor choice like that of the task killer etc., dunno what to do. Sale ends tomorrow anyway LoL.

In any case, thanks once again for your input.
[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] jason2678:
The camera sensor is probably fine. I think it is the software side image processing that is lacking. There is a Google camera port that works almost flawlessly (I've had a few FCs) that improves the image quality quite a bit. For what it's worth, my perspective is probably skewed by the fact that my wife is using a Pixel 3XL, and it is hard to say enough good things about it for a phone camera.

However, I think my Moto X (2015) took better pictures than the Nokia 6.1 (2018) does. Without the Google camera port, I think my ancient Galaxy S3 took better pictures than the stock Nokia camera. Software matters on phone cameras, a lot, and I don't see it as HMD Global's strong suit.

Nokia didn't design the camera on this phone. They partnered with a company called Evenwell to handle the camera and some other utilities; that's where the "battery protection" task killer came from. So it's an Android One phone, but it still comes loaded up with some third party telemetry and crapware.
