[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
Dear friends, i invite all of us to discuss this sore subject in a separate toric., and here's what so far I managed to find out.

My flashed Chinese device XQ-BC72 (flashed to Russian f/w) stopped getting OTA updates. Without thinking twice i flashed back device`s native Chinese f/w and after that OTA update was immediately recieved by my device (i flashed Chinese .31 f/w).

So how I managed to figure out, OTA update service is not breakes forever, it`s restored after flashing f/w with device`s native region.

Let's think together now how to fix it.

I'm wondering, if this could be because of Newflasher doesn`t flash persist.sin in new versions, and the traces of the firmware of its native region remain in the device ? I know that persist delete some verification keys and certificates, but, maybe, OTA service will remain ofter FULL f/w flashing with persist.sin file ?

What do you think ?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
And one more the most important question !

DOES ANYONE FINALLY GOT THE OTA UPDATE ON ANY REFLASHED DEVICE ???

I MEAN REFLASHED FROM YOUR NATIVE F/W TO ANY ANOTHER ONE !

IS THERE AT LEAST ONE SUCH CASE ????
[Sony Xperia 1 III] i7killpii:
Same here, flashed SEA firmware with no OTA received now.

It's interesting that somebody reports that software version in software info (Dial #*#*7378423*#*#) shows GLOBAL-C2 after flashing, though mine is still SEA-C2 which matches my firmware version. Not sure if this related to the issue.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
Global C2 - Hong Kong. There are two ways for you to see Global C2 in software info is to flash HK f/w or to buy the device from HK.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Nimda01:
Didn't have this device but would like to ask you guys, If the OTA is dead then is the "check update" option in Xperia Companian still work or not?

Persist.sin shouldn't have anything to do with it. I always delete them before flashing with older models using both Flashtool and Newflasher and it never breaks OTA.

Wonder if this issue could be related to a bootloader bug in this device that many people here encountered a bootloop when finished flashing and had to mess with active partition slot to get fixed? I remembered that the a/b partition slot is related to system update and OTA too.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tknguyencsu@gmail.com:
I think you are right, if the new flasher only flash to slot a (so that we need to set a to be active) then OTA update is not available since the update will be to slot b which is a different version of software. We can verify this by using the new flasher twice once for slot a (set a active) and once for slot b (set b active). Just a guess, it might destroy your phone!
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Mansour Nejer:
I bought my Xperia 1 iii from Hong Kong (XQ-BC72), and used newflasher to flash the software of the US version of the device thinking that it may solve the issue of not having 5G working and VOLET in my country, Saudi Arabia.

Unfortunately nothing changed, so I decided to re-flash the original software of the device HK (61.0.A.11.92).

Now, I get the OTA software update as you can see in the attachments, but it stops immediately after beginning of the installation process.

I hope this is beneficial information and let's all work to try to find a solution for this issue.

[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
Hmmm...

Well, when i found out that OTA system stop working on non-native f/w, i re-flashed my device to it native China f/w, and after that it recieved OTA update immediately after i started flashed device and set it up, and update installed with no problem then.

Now my device is still on that f/w ....92, and it`s not recieved new update yet (...14.3) , when the phone will get this update, i`ll try to install it as usual, and i`ll report how did everything go, hope it will work well.

You know what, try to restore your device with Xperia Companion, i did so. Maybe OTA not working well because of changed slot (you changed it before flashing, right ?), and when you recover your device with Companion, maybe it will set all by default as it is necessary for everything to work correctly
[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
Already tested that flashing without changing to slot A will brick the phone. When my device was flashed Russian version of f/w, which is NOT native for my device, i tried to change the slot from A to B, and i did it, but after that all still the same, device didn`t get OTA updates.

So i had to reflash China rom again, and restored after that device with XC.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Mansour Nejer:
Thank you for the advice... I will try to restore via Companion and report back to you if this solve my problem.. 😊
[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
Good luck ! ;)

But you`ll not be able to check OTA untill next month, when next OTA update will roll out, right ? :)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Mansour Nejer:
Thank you my friend.. Xperia Companion repair solved my problem and the new update installed on my phone now, but I guess you are right... I need to wait until the next update to see if OTA works... 😁😂
[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
Please feed me back on this next month if it`s not difficult for you and if you won`t forget ;)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tronganhha29:
Today, I still can't update the software via OTA, I'm using China BC-72, however switched to SEA. i fixed it by Sony companion but my device was reset to chinese firmware
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tknguyencsu@gmail.com:
Did you actually flash to both slot A and B since I try the fastboot command to change slot I was not successful. The change slot command failed due to locked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] DennisDD78:
Friends, does anyboby knows exactly what`s happening with OTA sytem when device reflashed on non-native f/w ? What exactly breaks down in the device firmware ???

We tried an experiment, flashed Chinese device BC72 with Russian f/w on both slots, A, and then B, when active A, system boots, but no OTA recieved after that. When we set active B, then logo + bootloop. I repeat, f/w was flashed on both slots! When we returned slot A as active, device boots great, but still NO OTA.

HOW WE CAN FIX IT ?!
[Sony Xperia 1 III] spine6:
So far no success getting OTA after flashing different firmware. But i just update using new flasher so that i can enjoy the new patch and so far working for me. My data and settings are still intact so i think as of now this is the best solution. Mine originally china convert to SEA firmware..
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tanipat:
me too exactly same as you cn flash over with SEA. do you update by just flash new flasher on top. Use flash all? or i need to delete something in order to not wipe data?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] spine6:
You need to delete 4 files so that it will be ome like OTA update, files are safe
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
is there a guide on XDA available to change region flash and keep files intact?

I would like to get SEA on my HK BC72.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] spine6:
Yes, the guide is in xda the forum name is flash without unlocking the bootloader.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tuananh94st:
Hi friends. I just flash SEA ROM for my China 1 mark 3 two weeks ago. Seem that OTA not working. Have any chance to make OTA works again? Maybe using flashtool instead of new flasher works?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] bentree:
Just update with newflasher and choose to keep user data during the install. works for me every time.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tuananh94st:
Thank you. Look like this is only way. Sadly :(
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tuananh94st:
I found some guides and so confuse about what need to do. Could you please tell me what I must notice to flash and keep user data? (Example: Which file need to remove).
[Sony Xperia 1 III] bentree:
It's fairly easy. Download the firmware, place phone in fastboot. Start Newflasher and when prompted choose to keep user data and then let it flash the install.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tuananh94st:
So I don't need to remove some .sin and .ta files as some guides instruction?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] bentree:
Correct. :) That is no longer required, just make sure that you are using the latest version of Newflasher from https://xdaforums.com/t/tool-newflasher-xperia-command-line-flasher.3619426/

If you have any mods installed (like Magisk or changed your Modem files) then you will have to redo those again after the update.

[Samsung Galaxy A71 5G Questions & Answers] satedeus:
A71 5G , rooted, never had an issue with transferring files as long as my phone was recognized by my pc. Running win 10, and it just forced an update after which this issue started: I plug in my phone via USB (c to c) to my pc. Pc opens an explorer window with 2 folders, my SD and internal. I can open either of those folders, and every folder down the line, but as soon as I open a folder with files in it I get kicked out explorer window blinks, reopens to the window of choosing SD or internal again. Anyone have this experience or know how to fix it? Thanks in advance..

[Mogul, XV6800 General] SimpTheChimp:
I had cooked my DCD 3.2.6 ROM with the MS Voice Commander... which I like a lot. However, it seems to suck up RAM - at least 2MB I think.

I was wondering what others are using? VC or the Cyberon VC, or just sticking with plain old voice tags? I haven't played with the Cyberon VC so I don't know much about it... How much memory does it use?

I am seriously considering just going back to the original voice tags like I had before I flashed from my stock ROM. Thoughts? What do y'all do out there? Has anyone else thought that VC takes a goodly amount of RAM?

Chimp (Tom)
[Mogul, XV6800 General] parcou:
I use MS Voice. It does use a good amount of ram but the trade off is worth it. Read up on it. PM me if you would like to TEST it and decide if you like it... I like it best because I do not have to train or create tags.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] SimpTheChimp:
Parcau: I already use VC, and do like it, but again I think the memory usage is just too high to justify the benefits from it. That is why I was wondering if the Cyberon VC was any better; if not, I just may have to go back to voice tags for the time being.

The XV6800 is nice, but I would have re-thought my purchase if I knew it was going to have such little memory available. Too bad no one can add more memory to it.

Chimp (Tom)
[Mogul, XV6800 General] miguelfp1:
well, just to chime in, I personally use Cyberon's VC, and I find it works pretty good, at least for me...
[Mogul, XV6800 General] BillThyCat:
Isn't Cyberon VC the same as the phone came with, that requires voice tags?

Does the OEM/Cab version floating around have any additional features over and above what the version that comes on the phone has?

I live MSVC, but the memory gets to me sometimes too, but I haven't even used my BT headset in 2 weeks so really haven't been using it. I may try without it, or go back to Cyberon, but I refuse to prerecord voice tags....

BTC
[Mogul, XV6800 General] miguelfp1:
There's the Cyberon one that comes with the phone, and there's one called Cyberon Voice Commander, which is similar to MSVC, with digit dialing, etc.

v3.5.2​

Build Notes:​

- This build is for devices running Android 11 Bootloader. ( Devices updated to Oneui3.x will have Android 11 Bootloader )

- Turning on ADB sideload and then turning it off/cancelling it will break all the communication of the phone with pc and the recovery needs to be restarted to use adb or mtp again.

Changelog:​

- Initial build for F41/M21s/M31/M31-prime

Bugs:​

- Patched Vbmeta required to boot.

- Fastbootd ( Will be fixed soon )

v3.6.1​

Changelog:​

- Updated with latest sources.

- Added option to backup and restore up_param and flash images ( tar archives renamed as .img) to it.

- Integrated multidisabler v3.1 script by @ianmacd into the build. ( Enter multidisabler in twrp terminal to get information on how to utilize that ).

The integrated multidisabler script now allows you to choose if you want to disable some specific things from the list or all of them.

- Removed gui offset along y-axis.

- Added fb2png binary.

- Fixed Android Verified Boot / AVB ( Twrp now boots without the need of a patched vbmeta ).

- Fixed Fastbootd and the finicky ADB/MTP.

- Included resetprop binary. (Should fix the issue with wrong props aka device not supported when trying to flash a correct file).

- Split the A51 tree into universal9611-common tree ( Includes everything related to twrp that's common on all the 2020 Exynos9611 devices ) and device specific a51/exynos9611 trees (These just contain the prebuilt files + if there's anything else like the unified script for the exynos9611 build ).

Bugs:​

- None

v3.6.1-hotfix​

Changelog:​

- Fixed the issue where the recovery would sometime randomly reboot 5 minutes after booting.

- Fixed issues with adb, mtp and fastboot.

- Fixed .tar file crashing Odin.
