[Sony Xperia 1 V] UnsignedZero:
Thanks for telling me about Swift Backup. I'm too use to older tools that work well but I'm up for using new tools if they work the same. Have you tried Neo Backup or any other ones?

I've not setup TWRP or related stuff on my Xperia 5 II but figured it may already be there but that's a fair callout.

Is there any advantage setting everything up (Google account/apps) BEFORE updating to 14 is it faster to do all of it on 14 since it would be a "clean" install in that case?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Kingo64:
Doesn't really matter unless you're wiping data between flashing (which I don't recommend). Shouldn't make a difference either way.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Ryohka:
Just placed my order for 1V(XQ-DQ72) yesterday, it seems a lot of things has changed sine the last time I flash firmware(it was the 5II lol). Based on what I read, even rooted bank and payment software still works fine on Android 14? My 5II rooted with Magisk cannot use things like Google pay/Google Wallet but all bank apps worked fine(Just Citi will warn you as you are using a rooted phone).

Not sure if my memory is correct but newflasher now keeps all user data instead of wiping everything? That's really great!

I downloaded newflasher v57 and XperiFirm, then got XQ-DQ72_Customized SEA_67.1.A.2.182 in case mine comes with HK firmware. Is unlock BL still necessary if I just flash official rom?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] mufunyo:
I would stay away from Android 14 if possible. The Sony 14 firmware is buggy as hell and there's other ramifications like not being able to install older apps.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Ryohka:
Hmmm, I will prepare Android 13 firmware as well then. Phone is still on the way though.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] GeramanX:
Wow! You have VpNR!?

I have a 1 III, can you please help me get it?

I had it before, made calls and stayed in 5G(never showed the VoNR icon).

It´ll be awesome if you could give me a hand :)

How to Enable Volte and 5G Without Permanent Root on Xperia 5 III and 1 III

First of all, Thanks to @johndaniel, @htcmage, @gorEisberg @Forbesii @morphvale @arjun_m4 for sharing all the information and files required for this guide. FIRST THING FIRST: Data is priceless. Always backup before you modify your phone...

No... I haven't met any bugs at all... but then having a Japan model, I get the end result being the last to receive it, after the guinea pigs and bugs ironed out.

What did you end up deciding? I'm considering getting Xperia 1 V. I'm located in US and I think my current phone has bad coverage because it's missing 4G channels 66 and 71, so I should get DQ62 according to this chart. But my current phone doesn't have 5G, so maybe with that it wouldn't matter.

Xperia 1 V 5G Enable
[Sony Xperia 1 V] endolith:
What's that?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Flava0ne:
It's how to get proper 5G to work in the US with a Global Xperia 1 V. In my case with my XQ-DQ72 here in Canada I had to disable DSDS (eSIM) in Phone Information settings to get 5G to work after flashing the XQ-DQ62 modem files.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] endolith:
So which channels does it support after the modification?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Flava0ne:
All that the XQ-DQ62 does since you're flashing/replacing/overwriting the existing modem files from that device.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] endolith:
Are you sure? They don't have different radio hardware?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Flava0ne:
Did you read the thread that I originally linked to?

I'm pretty sure that they all would have the exact same hardware with the individual firmware's for each region enabling and/or disabling certain bands to save on costs. But don't just take my word for it because I'm not 100% sure that's the case.

Hello, for this I don't want to open a threat... Is it known, that the Xperia 1 VI (EU ver.) is the same way rootable now and is there a modded stock ROM for these models out there?

Or should I stay on the original, just rooted to have less bugs.

Momently I just think about, if it's a good idea to switch to that very good phone next time.

looks like right now your screwed until then. there is no free tool to flash in edl mode as of yet
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chakan2:
Try vol up + down + power and see if it reboots...if it does. Do that again, but let go of up as soon as it boots and see if you get into fastboot.

If you can do that, it's recoverable.

[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] ChrisChronos:
Hi, just recently my mums x3 pro has been getting spammed with full screen ads, some of which have videos with sound and some lead to the the google play store. I've tried looking up a solution and some say to turn off msa in the settings which I have done and turn off ads in various mi apps which I have also tried, none of which have worked. Still getting spammed with these annoying screen ads, they can happen when I turn on the phone, or any time when using the os or apps. Any help on this? Thanks.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA.

Factory reset, reset Google and other passwords, test, then be careful what you install!

You are what you load.

Lock it down, no auto download or install permissions. Back out of bad sites or close that tab or browser, delete browser cache and if needed data. Use a secure browser like Brave.

Use online nextDNS as the DNS provider*.

Find a good firewall for the device and lock it down.

Police the download folder daily and delete anything you didn't download. Test by opening the jpegs etc in the download folder before moving them to the database.

Scan all sideloaded apps with online Virustotal before installing, if there's any doubt, delete it!

Never download anything in emails accept if you trust the source and really need it.

Never install social media, bank, or sales apps; use browser login only.

Any apps that don't (or shouldn't) need internet access to function either firewall block them or ditch them. Do Not allow apps to update if running well as is regardless of their source. The only exceptions are apps like Malwarebytes, etc.

Zero tolerance for any malware. If you can't find and uninstall it completely in 2 hours, factory reset, etc.

This stock Note 10+ is running on Pie, current load is over 3 yo. No malware during that whole time. I go all over the internet too, no kid gloves on, but you need a certain level of setup, judgement and knowing when/how to back out of a bad site. Generally NextDNS will prevent this but not always and sometimes you need to disable it to use iffy sites.

*edit, Rethink firewall is what I use now. Powerful, versatile, has full ad blocking capabilities and more. Best firewall for stock phones.

It supercedes Next DNS and Karma firewall that I was using.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] ChrisChronos:
Thanks for all that.. Yes I guess I will have to factory reset and up the security measures.. For a moment I thought it was just the company poco spamming my mums phone with ads but I guess it is freaking malware. My mum probably has a tendency for opening dodgy chinese shop websites and downloads a lot of janky apps from google play.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] ChrisChronos:
I managed to find the culprit.. It was an app called screen mirror.. I uninstalled it straight away.. and I'm going to do everything you suggested. Thanks.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] blackhawk:
You're welcome.

It's a lot and that's not all of it😖

Going to a bad website shouldn't infect you simply because you went there. If you start interacting with it maybe. I usually just back out but when that doesn't work it escalates my response.

However if you're not interactively watching for emerging threats as you browse or get sucked into the game... well. Obviously any time someone request you install or download anything to view a video or buy something it needs to be flagged. A common tactic on WhatsApp.

Most people install the malware themselves though. Obviously Playstore is not a guarentee of safety. A common ploy used is the perp posts an app with no viruses or malware in it. At some point after install it manages to update from a rogue site it's payload package and get busy.

Blocking internet access and/or updates prevents this. After reboot make sure the firewall is up right away. Before rebooting I put it in airplane mode just to be sure nothing can connect before the firewall is active.

I also keep wifi disabled as I never use it; secure potential infection vectors if not used.

To be clear I'm not running any apps that will do outright malicious activities that I know of. A few do annoying things but can be otherwise useful. Some I keep package disabled unless needed.

Somehow you need to bring mum up to speed with at least some basic SOPs and tactics to reduce her exposure. Always redundantly backup critical data to at least 2 drives preferably hdds (I do use flashsticks as well) that are physically, electronically isolated from each other and the PC. Otherwise sooner or later she will lose data. Time staggering them is useful in case one gets a malicious file(s) on it. Scripted jpegs are little terrors if they get in the database.

It's very important to detect malware and act quickly/decisively if found. If the database and all the backups get compromised you are into the hurt locker proper...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] ChrisChronos:
I dont think she has lot of sensitive data on her phone that isn't already backed up on google photos / cloud.. maybe a few audio files.. the only thing she does have that is sensitive is her bank app installed on her phone but that requires fingerprint to actually enter it. It's a bit concerning though that a app called screen mirror was on her phone spamming her with ads.. hopefully that didn't allow scammers to see what is on her screen.. Aside from NextDns, which I've already put on her phone, is there any other security anti virus / firewall software you would recommend? I'm guessing the paid stuff is more effective? I scanned with malwavebytes and avg anti virus and both said no issues found.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] blackhawk:
If her Google account is compromised she could lose cloud data or have it altered. Physical backup should also be used. Passwords should be changed after a suspected malware breach.

You can do a online Virustotal scan of screen mirror to get a better idea of its threat level.

I use Karma Firewall but that's with Pie; it's not fully functional on Android 10 and higher. I have to find another firewall for my Android 10 device too. I back burnered that for now because it's my backup and isn't in active use. There are a couple good ones but I haven't tested them yet.

I don't use any active antivirus as it slows down the device and isn't terribly effective or needed.

Used correctly Android 9* or higher is fairly bulletproof. Free Malwarebytes is good. For her maybe the paid version be worth it. It has a real time malicious website/malware blocking feature I think but I never tested it. Not sure what kind of performance hit you take. You will need to switch dns provider to automatic in device settings for Malwarebytes to update as NextDNS will block it or make an exception for it and possibly other antivirus in NextDNS settings.

I simple change device dns to do that updates then flip it back. I block some Google sites too to limit their data tracking so I need to do the same flip to use gmail🤣

Get her to use Brave browser as it's near bulletproof; nothing has ever gotten through Brave unless I authorized it. Remember to configure it to fully lock it down... Only downside to Brave is it's backup; you can't create an offline backup file. I use ColorNote now for my bookmarks and it allows for backup import/exports files plus cloud. It's better organized and will take notes even whole pages.

It has built in browser hyperlink capabilities too, it's a slick freeware app. A favorite.

*Android 12 I think it was had a huge hole in it not present on previous versions that Google patched, you need that patch. Otherwise most patches and updates seem irrelevant to me operating as I do. This device hasn't been updated in over 3.5 years and zero malware issues in spite of heavy internet usage. I don't browse with kid gloves either...

My JVC KW-M865BW headunit requires me to manually push the android auto icon on the headunit's home screen to start the AA wireless connection. The wireless connection does not start automatically like the Iphone's CarPlay. Apparently on page 30 of the JVC manual, it says you have to press Android Auto to start the wireless connection.

Is there a workaround to make the headunit start the AA wireless connection automatically? Hard to believe this was by design when Carplay works flawlessy with the wireless connection with no manual intervention.

I have a JVC KW-M785BW unit, and I have done the following:

Set up a single android phone. It was flaky with 2 phones

In the phone's Android Auto settings, set it up to "connect always"

That's pretty much it. I turn the car on, start driving, and within about 30 seconds, it connects.

Note: I have not set up my wife's iPhone yet, so it's possible that with her phone also configured, it'll stop.

Not sure if this happened because a change to my carrier's network or if the latest June security update broke VoLTE and WiFi calling. It was working fine previously for the past year since I bought the phone, has this happened to anyone else lately?
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] SteveMKII:
Ok I phoned my carrier and they had me reset my APN and Network settings, then they manually re-activated WiFi Calling and VoLTE on their end, and its all working again. When I reset the APN settings yesterday it didn't work, but I guess a full Network settings reset + reactivation on their end did the trick. So if anyone else has the same issue at some point, give that a try.
