[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] aerohaith:
Hi all

I've tried to soft reset my fold 3, but it doesn't go past the logo on both screens. then logo disappears on the front screen but remains on large screen. battery drained, recharge, repeats...even the charge logo is now behaving the same, it doesn't disappear even if you unplug cable.

I'm looking to hard reset but unable to go to safe mode.

Any advise is appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] goattee:
Can you power off and then power on again into recovery mode? Then you can try a variety of things: formatting cache, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] tutibreaker:
reflash stock firmware using odin
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] aerohaith:
already tried. cannot go into recovery mode. only logo.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] aerohaith:
well, my warranty just expired ;(
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] aerohaith:
Thanks. managed to get to download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] aerohaith:
I have flashed a stock firmware, but the problem is still there. does it mean it is a hardware issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] tutibreaker:
Mmm can you take it to warranty or try to contact Samsung support
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] aerohaith:
no warranty. Samsung support will charge me. if no other option, then I'll have to.

Hi there

I was wondering if someone can help me in getting IGO to use it in Israel.

Can you please tell me from where to download the software and how to install it?

thanks

You can't download iGo legally from anyplace else than the iGo website, but you will need the original sd card in order to use it.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Backfisch:
Hi everyone,

after terrible problems with the ram management on Android 9.0 a few years back we decided to restore Stock Android 8.1.0.

This was perfect for the last years but now the banking app sets the minimum version to Android 9.

So we need an Android Update or a new phone :(

Do you have a rom recommendation, so we can use the phone like 8.1 without ram problems + using our banking app?

I would prefer an original rom without root but I'm a bit afraid of android 9.

Hopefully there is someone how could give me an advice.

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Tim253:
I had to get my S10 Plus replaced through Assurant by T-Mobile and they are sending me an s20 Plus 5G 128 GB Snapdragon as a replacement.

I want to be able to replace the bootloader and root the phone and do all that fun stuff, but I became painfully aware with my S10 Plus that bootloader updates become harder with each security patch applied.

So my question is what is the best way to find out what version the firmware on the phone I am receiving is so that I can find the appropriate software and instructions to increase my odds of a successful outcome. I'm afraid if I turn on the phone that it will auto update during the set up and then I will have a new boot loader that won't allow me to update it.

Any help would be much appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA.

It will likely be fully updated when you get it.

To get around that I bought a new N10+ almost 2 years ago.

It shouldn't auto update at first boot useless you authorize it to. However it can override you with Administrator authority to turn on wifi and internet and do the download so it's important to disable that app. The carrier can also disable OTA updates on their end.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] espionage724:
I have a TCL 55S405 TV with Roku OS. I have a few questions:

1. Can I straightforward flash the TV from Roku to Android? Maybe there's a 55S405 in a different region with Android and I can just take its firmware as-is?

2. Is there any comparable TCL TV models or general Android TV OS ROM I could flash?

3. Is there anything at all interesting I can do with this TV? I'm looking for something more than Roku secret menus

I want to mess with the TV's firmware itself and not just attach another device over HDMI :p
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hurt Copain:
Hi bud!

I have had my 1 V for about a month.

Wipe and Relock your bootloader, don't set a pin or security of any kind.

Unlock again, keystore issues are fine.

You can set pin, pw, or fp.

Also, Chinese firmware doesn't have any fix included. This is incorrect. Just do as I said. CN and HK have busted keystore. I was fine doing as I instructed above on sea, eu, eu O2..

I have tried all available firmwares. And enabled 5g and vonr via efs tools/qpst.

Most flash all but the bootloader images as they are verified by a sha check to boot delivery. Haven't gotten around to figuring that out as the device codes are exactly the same except Japan's. Either way rewriting mbn files via qpst enabled a few amazing things for me on TMobile in the US on the DQ72 model.

All gsi boot but weird moto ports

I have a couple compiled gki kernels AOSP/clo with kernelsu if you reach out via telegram.

As my buddy Saku said roms will arrive soon as we flesh out trees and run blob extraction.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] mufunyo:
I had read that report before, so when I first got the phone out of the box with locked boot loader, I didn't set any PIN or screen lock. Unfortunately, after rooting, I still got the keystore issue.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
I had the same issue, Hurt Copains method worked a treat, I think it's caused when you unlock the bootloader without turning the "OEM Unlocking" option on, well that's at least what happened to me I think I left it off after I relocked my bootloader as I couldn't root my phone straight away as pc companion is dodgey with the 1V and the UK firmwares wasn't available on the same day the phone came out, I'm too eager to do stuff straight away I don't like waiting😅
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Haldi4803:
That's pretty cool.

No issues with Camera at all ?

No problems with Widevine support?

Oh, thats nice.

Are there any disadvantages from GSI compared to a native ROM?

The'yre just not fully optimized for the device, is that it?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] mufunyo:
I did turn on the OEM unlocking option, as I always do, but that didn't help. Maybe the ritual of relocking and unlocking again helps, but I don't feel like going through all of that again when I just finished setting up the phone the way I like it.

No issues with the camera. Widevine is dropped to L3 of course because we can't back up or restore DRM keys. Just watch Netflix on your TV instead of on your phone, it's **** anyway.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
Fair enough I couldn't really be bothered either but wanted Google pay working, you using the stock Xperia launcher or a custom 1? Didn't take long to set stuff back up anyways if your using an app like swift backup.

Also I agree with you on that who actually watched Netflix on their phone seems strange to me.

Has anyone used the qunlock tool?

Does it work on the Xperia 1 V?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] duck5345:
I successfully rooted and looked to see what Magisk modules were available. Especially I like a center clock in my status bar, so I looked for related modules, but none of the ones I found seem to work.

AOSPMods: Setting doesn't apply

Gravitybox [T]: older versions don't work, and T(13) doesn't apply settings

G-Visual: Setting doesn't apply

Dark Tricks: Works normally(but no center clock😥)

My previous device was a Oneplus 8 Pro and I'm a big fan of custom ROMs, so I was disappointed to see these settings missing from the stock ROM.

Is there a similar module that works with stock ROM?

Edit: Dark Tricks doesn't work either.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hurt Copain:
Qpst tools? As in Qualcomm tools? Yes, those work fine. I rewrote efs files to enable 5G bands on my DQ72
[Sony Xperia 1 V] rom4ster:
That is not what he is talking about but your project is also super interesting, would you mind elaborating or giving a guide on how to do this? If I am understanding this right, you can enable bands that are not enabled using this?

FYI what he is referring to is usage of a unlock tool that basically links you to some shops that will change the bootloader unlock setting to yes as they can somehow do it. U gotta pay but it worked for people's 1 IV.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hurt Copain:
Ah yes the infinity tool. I will be testing it on the US model in a few weeks. It should work just like the 1 iv. For what I was saying, basically u can enable 5g bands that are disabled by default per region. I found some files indicative of exactly this in the embedded file system. The DQ72 model has 5 g totally unavailable until this. I would be happy to share some info when I complete my current research. I have a bit more to do, trying to verify if the US dc62 will have M-Wave sub6 5g or not. The 5 IV euro model didn't and after flashing US firmware it did. So, my theory is they are all the same and just need fhly converted to make a real global model.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] rom4ster:
THat is awesome. These 2 avenues really help users who want to root so please share when you complete your research.

After the 1 III, it seems US phones are locked so either you have to buy US phone and use qunlock or you have to go international, but then you miss out on bands, your research will give people the option to buy international and keep the bands. Its super important so thanks for doing it.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] UniquePhillip:
Holy moly, if you do this research and report back I will be so so happy, please post about this when you finish 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I would love to just use the EU model with US bands enabled. And not have to mess around with some kind of qunlocktool thing that you risk breaking on updates

[Sony Xperia 1 V] 2015Ducatimulti:
it might be months or never for rooting the DQ62, that`s why I went with the DQ72, plus I wanted silver color which Sony doesn`t off in the USA, but I actually got stuck on the FASTBOOT MODE issue, like the OP said you have to be in FASTBOOTD, not Fastboot to flash the int_boot image, or you will get remote flash of this partition isnt allowed message, banged my head against the wall for 30 mins. lol
[Sony Xperia 1 V] suuperboom:

[Sony Xperia 1 V] lwdroid:
Can anyone please help me relocking the bootloader of my EU-UK? (german) XQ-DQ54.

I successfully unlocked, then rooted - everything OK, but fingerprint/security pattern was not working.

So i wanted to use the hint by "Hurt Copain":

"Wipe and Relock your bootloader, don't set a pin or security of any kind. Unlock again, keystore issues are fine."

I wiped, and reflashed the "XQ-DQ54_Customized EU-UK_67.0.A.4.79" downloaded by "XperiFirm".

Phone is not booting in android.

I can not relock it in fastboot(d) mode.

"fastboot devices" shows my ID, but "fastboot flashing lock" shows "Unrecognized command flashing lock"

"fastboot oem lock" shows "Command not supported in default implementation"

Symptom:

When i enter fastbootd i can see

Product name: pdx234

Bootloader version: unknown

Baseband version: "empty"

I tried Sonys "Xperia Companion", it says, "relock first" ;(

The i tried Sony "Xperi flash tool Emma". It shows the phone data, but all "grayed out", inactive.

I guess our phone is not supported yet.

Has anyone an idea, what i can do to get android booting again.

Thank you!

EDIT:

Oh no, sooo easy to relock!

I entered "fastbootd" by "Vol-down" & "Power", thats the wrong mode.

Also the "Vol-down" and plug the USB cable - mode (blue asterisk on the screen) was wrong.

But i had to enter "Vol-up" and plug the USB cable.

In this mode (green asterisk on the screen) i could relock with the command "fastboot oem lock"

Now restoring with "Sony Companion"...
[Sony Xperia 1 V] HolyR6:
Hi. I've rooted my 1 v today and discovered the pin issue too. now i tried relocking the bootloader the exact same way i unlocked it (via the 'fastboot oem lock' command) but that tells me that it's an unknown command. can u pls tell me how i can relock my bootloader to (hopefully) fix it via ur method, as i want to use my 1 v outside of my house and I'm scared taking it outside without any password or pin. thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia 1 V] andoks chkn:
Hi all,

So, I have a XQ-DQ44 (Japanese Version) Sony Xperia 1 V. I flashed the US Modems and it got my phone to able to work with data and text in the states. I couldn't find a fix for voice calling/ VoLTE so I decided to flash the whole 62 (US) version on my 44.

After flashing the 62, my phone

doesn't

recognize sim cards nor does mobile radio turn on.

I tried to use Sony Companion to fix things, but it says:

"Temporary device incompatibility detected."

I'm trying to get back to stock 44 rom (from Xperifirm), but when I flash it I get the message:

"Your device is corrupted and can't be trusted."

So I have to flash back to the 62 to turn the device back on. Is there a fix to get back to stock rom? What can I do?

Thanks...
[Sony Xperia 1 V] merc50:
Have you tried wiping data in recovery mode before flashing back to stock 44 firmware?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Pandemic:
Ota aint work when you unlocked your bl due the lost DRM keys.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] andoks chkn:
Hey, I just wiped data in recovery mode and I still got the error message:

"Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot."
[Sony Xperia 1 V] merc50:
Idk, so if you flash 62 firmware it boots? And you tried Sony companion with 44 firmware installed and then tried with 62 firmware installed?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] andoks chkn:
Yes, it only boots with 62. Sony companion repair doesn't work with either firmware installed.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] merc50:
Strange, I'm not sure what to do with that error. Maybe try flashing a different region firmware, like SEA, then try again with companion.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] sugerdroid:
Hi andoks chkn, I hope you've resolved your issue and been able to unbrick your phone. I am also considering getting an XQ-DQ44 because I am interested in both the eSIM capability and 16GB of RAM. I am also in the US and I was curious if you actually got 5G after flashing the US modems (and if you have more details, like which 5G bands showed service). I know you mentioned that you achieved voice and data but I am looking for more specific information about connectivity before I pounce on this very expensive device.

I also would be attempting to get VoLTE working, but I believe that is possible through the "Pixel 5 - VoLTE/WiFi/5g" Magisk module unless there is a hardware limitation on the device (I have used that module successfully on my Sony Xperia 1 IV XQ-CT72 previously). Maybe you tried this or other software fixes and they didn't work... Just trying to pick your brain since you have the device in hand and already ran some experiments.

Thank you!

How did people get Magisk working on Android 14?

I just updated to TW_67.1.A.2.194 on DQ72. (from A13 with magisk)

It will boot ok.

But as soon as I flashed patched init-boot (magisk 26.4) I will get the "device is corrupt, cannot boot, will shutdown in 5 seconds"

Can't even flash original init-boot , and had to reflash firmware with newflasher to get it booting again.

I tried it twice in case something stuffed up the first time, but same results.

Will have to use it without root for the moment until the brains trust here tells me where I went wrong.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Al Ferro:
I'm using the TW _67.1.A.2.194 firmware on DQ72 and everything is fine and rooted. Try to do a clean install to see if that solves your problem.

The cam apk works, only it shows black screen, such after is loosed DRM key.

It may be due unlocking bootloader, something Sony changed if they destroy bootloader DRM for Android 13, but not for Android 14.

I just want to know if someone noticed this.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] sugerdroid:
Hello all. I'm currently in the market deciding whether to buy the XQ-DQ44 or the XQ-DQ54. I am located in the U.S. and am interested in getting the best 5G network coverage possible while still retaining an unlocked bootloader and eSIM capability. I have been leaning towards the XQ-DQ54 because I want to make sure that coverage is decent -- however, I am really interested in the 512 GB storage space and the 16 GB of RAM that the XQ-DQ44 offers. Reading through all the threads I can find here and on Reddit as well, I am trying to determine whether there is really a hardware different in network coverage, or whether the software modem that is flashed makes all the difference. I see how-to guides that explain how to flash the US modem from the XQ-DQ62. Some users are claiming that each variant has different coverage due to hardware differences. But I also see some users claiming that they are getting solid US 5G coverage with T-Mobile and AT&T on band 71 (which seems exclusive to the US version) on several different variants.

I guess my simple question is -- can anyone confirm that they are receiving the full range of US network bands on a XQ-DQ44 by simply flashing the US modem files? Or are there confirmed HARDWARE differences?

P.S. I take the message above that it is very unwise to flash the entire XQ-DQ62 firmware on the device and we should only flash the modem files AFTER upgrading with the standard files that are provided for the exact hardware model we are upgrading.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Robot76:
Yes... I risked it for the unlocked phone for 16GB 512. Switched to English language on setup.

I'm on the Aotearoa New Zealand network and the phone functions as expected, not needing to flash modem settings etc.

So I'm unsure about the USA network...

🤗

Still no Android 14 for the XQ-DQ44 as yet.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] UnsignedZero:
So I just unlocked the bootloader on my phone and it has 13. Is there a recommended order in terms of upgrading to 14? I was thinking of just patching to get root and then installing TWRP or related along with adding in Titanium Backup before patching 14 itself on it with Newflasher.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Kingo64:
You'll lose root when updating with Newflasher (or at least I have every time).

My suggestion is to unlock bootloader, then flash to latest build with XperiFirm (to download) and Newflasher (to flash), then root + setup. The good thing is that user data is retained when using Newflasher but your boot img and kernel gets replaced thus the need to re-root each time.

Is there even a TWRP image available yet? Also another suggestion is to try out Swift Backup instead of the traditional Titanium Backup, much much faster and seems to support all the same stuff.
