[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheVanguard:
Hello everybody,

My parents FireTV 4 series is bricked - stuck in an endless bootloop at the white fire tv logo. I cannot initiate a factory reset using the remote control (right+back arrow), at which point Amazon tech told me we should have gotten an extended warranty and said goodbye.

It does not appear to respond to the instructions given here: https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-mode-debricked-yay.2799779/

I'm able to boot into Android Recovery by unplugging the power, holding the on button, then plugging back in. Below the action options It lists a series of error messages when I do so. The screen reads as follows:

Android Recovery

Amazon/brandenburg/brandenburg9/PS7646.3550N/0028085968384

user/amz-p,release-keys

Any button cycles highlight.

Long-press activates.

[XPERIA X1 General] rotsu:
Any news about new updates/apps/panels etc ?

Things i would like to see:

1- specialized UI for Xperia made by SE. Most WM phones got one, why not Xperia?

Media Panel looks really nice, why not expand that into a complete UI skin ?

2- youtube panel :)

3- faster panel switching time. Currently its good and fast, but we still need it to be faster....

What do you guys think ?
[XPERIA X1 General] ijob:
very annoying and I'm beginning to get very envious of those with iphones :p

its a waste of time checking for new panels on the SE site.

why are independent developers not producing any to purchase?
[XPERIA X1 General] ithehappy:
When a firmware update will be available?
[XPERIA X1 General] guap:
'coz panel are limited to xperia users as panels interface goues officially only on x1

and panels sucks imho :p
[XPERIA X1 General] besserde:
Well, the guy who bought the first fax machine was a complete idiot. Because there was no one to fax to.

Or remember at the end of the 90? When no one was willing to buy a DVD-Player because there were only around 5 Movies on DVD (which we already had on CD-i ;-) ) and the film studios didn't want to release DVDs because no one had got a DVD-Player?

With the panels and the Xperia X1 it's a bit similar - it will take some time, until creative and talented developers have got a X1 for their own.
[XPERIA X1 General] jahd5000:
im REALLY hoping for a YouTube panel.

any progammer with a lot of spare time??

:P
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
i like panels there is a free sdk so everybody can make whatever they want

if they got the skills

of cause compared to iphone there is no central place to check and access them

but looking at the very closed way apple handle it and non disclosure agreement apple handle

it developers are not even allowed to talk with each-other

and they have to pay apple to get apps in the store

and apps can only be developed on a mac not a windows or linux computer

i pity iphone developers really

but granted it's bad news for other wm phone owners if programs are only made as panels and not as programs they can use
[XPERIA X1 General] johnchan78:
Its very frustrating that the Omnia, HD Touch, etc. all already have had firmware updates/upgrades/improvements, yet our Xperia is STILL on the original version.

Is this actually what we should expect from SE, because it is actually HTC producing the phone, but HTC cannot directly release a firmware (even if they know about problems)? I would presume HTC is the one that is handling the firmware, and SE is simply adding their panels, so any firmware updates should come from HTC then re-badged and renamed as an "SE" firmware update?

If that is the case, what is SE's track record of releasing firmwares? In fact, do you think SE has to PAY for each firmware update to HTC? Maybe we shouldn't even expect any firmware updates because of this?!
[XPERIA X1 General] msalmank:
Believe me... Xperia is a far better device than the iPhone. iPhone was a breakthrough device, sure, but Xperia is more powerful. (I have been using an iPhone 1st Gen since it was released, and have literally not touched it since i got my Xperia)

Sure iPhone has a lot of stuff out for it... but you can't compare panels to iPhone's apps and games... panels are something different. If you wanna talk about games and apps, then more and more windows mobile apps and games are starting to support the Xperia/Touch-HD resolution and so we'll see more soon.
[XPERIA X1 General] pf:
What are you cruying for? The other companies had to give fast updates because of the bad first ROM. SE made the best ROM I have ever seen at a PPC. It is the most stable PPC I ever had and even with this first ROM. Not to believe! What to wish more? The more time to wait for the x1 was good used by SE :)

There seem to be only a very few very small issues (as bluetooth disconnecting at some devices, I am lucky not to have this problem till now) and I am sure there will be an update for them.
[XPERIA X1 General] Micke401:
Well lets hope that sonyericsson does not treat this platform the same way they treated uiq.. Uiq is more or less dead today.. Had an m600 from se,uppgraded with their very latest (and last)firmware and still buggy like hell..
[XPERIA X1 General] emuneee:
Hopefully we can get a firmware update with:

a) IE 6

b) faster panel switching

As far as the panels are concerned, SE is going to have to make XPERIA a brand before we start seeing more and more panels created. It's like the whole chicken and the egg thing, but the ball is really in SE's court.

I downloaded and looked at the SDK last night, looked alright. I bet developers are waiting to see how committed SE is to the XPERIA brand.
[XPERIA X1 General] commodoor:
i'm agree with pf. i used htc phones like elf, nike, kaiser even the blackstone

but xperia was the fastest and stable, the keyboard responds fast not like the kaiser. when you use tf3d its responds faster than the diamond. there are little things but which phone is perfect??

i have no issue with the rom. i have everything original don't need to tweak anything causes only crashes.
[XPERIA X1 General] Golgo:
I dont know about the whole "SE buying updates from HTC" but I can tell you that at least here in Sweden a firmware update is imminent. The actual update is done and is now being evaluated by the operators before release.

Oh, and about SEs track record for updates... its never been very good.
[XPERIA X1 General] rotsu:
Wait a sec. If there is an update that you have heard of? please share it!

Honestly the main thing i would like to see in X1 is an UI shell similar to HTC or Omnia. I know SE love to have their phones with top of the line UIs. But with X1, they did nothing..... beside a nice looking media panel.

About the app store, i think i have heard that MS is working on an app store when they release WM 6.5/7 will be similar to what iphone app store.

Woo yes do tell us about the updated Xperia firmware that is coming... anything would be good!!!
[XPERIA X1 General] Golgo:
Sorry, I have no information regarding what's actually in this update. I only know this because that's what SE support have told me in an email reply.

Truthfully though, I wouldn't put too much faith into what SE support says. I talked to them about another matter about a month ago adn was promised that a fw update would come out "any day now, at the latest two weeks before xmas"... nah, don't think so :P

[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] knives of ice:
Ok, I have been hesitant to update because of a nightmare situation where I lost everything early on stuck in bootloop hell.

However, I am in a situation now where I need wifi calling/text and that is not an option on my MIUI 13 version.

I am still on magisk 25.2 and MIUI 13.

Is there any special version of magisk I need to update to and does anyone have a guide for updating to maintain root?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] metalvibe:
What I did was update via the Builtin Updater then without rebooting go to Magisk and let it install magisk to the inactive slot. Then I rebooted and it kept my root etc.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] nmhusa:
How do you know which is the inactive slot. Is it obvious in Magisk ?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] metalvibe:
When you install magisk one of the options is to install to inactive slot. They decide the slot for you.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] knives of ice:
what version of magisk are you using currently? i haven't updated magisk in the year since I got the device up and rooted so I'm worried it might no longer work
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] metalvibe:
I'm currently on Magisk 26.1 and updated to the latest MIUI Stable v14.0.12. Best to backup everything before updating etc. Better safe than sorry as the number of times I've had to factory reset from playing with things like the modded launcher and experimental magisk modules is quite a lot.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] knives of ice:
this is the problem, without TWRP I really have no idea how to backup anymore. back in the day I never cared cause you could just load an exact backup. now, I have no idea what you do other than backup some apps?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] metalvibe:
For backup I use a combination of Google Backup, Swift Backup and the specific apps backup if they have one. Not the easiest nor is it a 1 stop shop deal like a nandroid backup back in the days, but it works more or less. At least mostly with the occassional need to re-setup app permissions for the more permission intensive apps like Tasker.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] knives of ice:
OK, I got things loaded successfully. Beyond disappointing - still no wifi calling in my settings and somehow I no longer have full screen apps. I don't get that at all, the status bar hide module seems to not be working or something
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] metalvibe:
Wifi calling and volte needs to be activated using the usual MIUI procedure. i.e. dial *#*#86583#*#* for Volte and *#*#869434#*#* for VoWifi then the settings will be visible. Must use the miui dialer. Not sure what you mean about fullscreen apps, maybe it has to do with the fold settings (i.e. Settings under "Features for foldable devices" then "App layouts"/"Game Layouts" depending on which it falls under. As for the status bar module, I don't use that module, I run a shell using Tasker at boot for that (ie. "settings put global force_fsg_nav_bar 1")
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] knives of ice:
VoWifi check was disabled. awesome, I never knew that code. I now have that setting to enable wifi calling

there is a module @AndroPlus made to hide the status bar. I'm not sure why but it isn't hiding anymore in this new version of MIUI
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] nmhusa:
I used magisk module "hide navigation bar (xiaomi)" by poney70 from xda forum and it works on the mix fold 3. Make sure a gesture app is installed in order to have access to navigation prior to activating the module.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] knives of ice:
yeah, I have the nav bar hidden - I am talking about the top bar the status bar. the magisk module androplus wrote in this forum hid that as well but it doesn't seem to work now in the new miui for me
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] nmhusa:
My bad. Thanks for clarifying.

[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] Johnnlock:
Hello,

So I have a big problem with my MI A3, I was using a pin code "0101", so I changed it to a password where I did something like "#Homeless", but now the device just say that the pass is wrong, but I've sure that the pass I set was that. I'm using Bliss ROM and now I can't acess my phone. Is there a way to bypass this password? Maybe the device it's not recognizing the password cause I used one caps letter and a special character. Help me please!

The void is on 0 (0x0000) but in a different section appears a 0x1 (ddr). I opened the bootloader and closed it immediately and also changed csc with samfw tool and used lycan to the delete gos, but I always returned the gos but I keep changing csc. Do I have still the knox warranty or lost it forever? How to be sure? I also have had problemes with Samsung pay, is that related?​
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] AmirulAndalib:
Congratulations, you have managed to successfully trip your knox chip and make it void (0x1). Welcome to the club! And Yes, YOU CAN'T revert the voided warranty or tripped knox. Once its gone its gone forever. Sorry blud. And some samsung apps like secure folder, members, galaxy store (maybe), samsung pay, health, samsung pass autofill, and some other samsung apps will stop working permanently. But you can possibly fix them with knoxpatch or safetynet patch. But yeah thats always a temporary solution.

PHASE II COMPLETE

PHASE III IN PROGRESS (AGPS FIX FOR VZW TP)

UPDATED 12/25/08

Please read completely. I really don't want to have posts asking about things stated in this post.

First and foremost.... This fix is to be still considered beta at the present time. I WILL NOT be held responsible for any damage to your device or any charges from you carrier if you happen to be in roaming because of this.

Phase II is finally here and I know I've been asked many times on what Phase II meant. Well I now have that answer. The newest release is Verizon PRI 1.46.002 coded to allow full programming updates , full PRL updates NO banner issues and last but not least .... .... oh ya .... GPS .... "takes a bow on this one"

Hope that answers the questions I kinda reframed from answering.

Here we go again

IF SOMEONE WHO HAS NOT APPLIED MY FIX BEFORE ON A VERIZON TOUCH PRO AND WOULD BE WILLING TO DO ONE MINOR EXPERIMENT. SKIP DOWNLOADING PPST1.46.CAB IN STEP ONE AND THEN SKIP STEPS 2 THRU 5. THEN POST IF IT HAS UNLOCKED THE GPS. IF IT DIDN'T UNLOCK, APPLY THE COMPLETE FIX AS PRESENTED WITH NO DEVIATIONS.

FOR ALL OTHERS, STEP 2 IS MEANT TO ROLL BACK THE CHANGES MADE BY PHASE I OF THIS PROJECT. THAT MEANS YOUR PRI WILL BE GOING BACK TO STOCK OEM. NO HARD RESETS ARE NEEDED UNLESS YOU WANT TO CLEAR YOUR DEVICE OF ALL OTHER "FIX" INSTALLS. I WOULD SUGGEST INSTALLING PPST1.46.CAB BEFORE THE HARD RESET. I PERFORMED THAT ACTUAL PROCEDURE ONCE I COMPLETED PHASE II OF THIS PROJECT.

1. download lllboredlll_VZW_GPS_Fix_v2.cab AND PPST1.46.cab and put on your storage card or any folder on your device

2. install PPST1.46.cab

3. use gsfinder,total commander or File Explorer to navigate to \windows\ppst.exe

4. click on ppst.exe and go thru the prompts

5. reset your device as needed

6. NOW install lllboredlll_VZW_GPS_Fix_v2.cab

7. use gsfinder,total commander or File Explorer to navigate to \windows\ppst.exe

8. reset your device as needed

9. Dial *228 option 1

(the above step is the steps I did, option 2 also works but I needed to prove it takes a full update without rewriting data)

10. reset your device

11. Install HTC GPS Tool if needed

12. I would suggest a soft reset... do what you want on this one

13. Open up HTC GPS Tool. Set Chip to Q 7500 and mode to Cold Start (left soft key for those who dont know) then set baud to 4800 and open port.

There will be a registry entry made from this install with the GC's AGPS Values for future use or others testing use. Please understand that my device is not capable of AGPS for some reason. When it's figured out the "GPS Fix" will be updated.

Also make sure that your device settings are right.

Settings >> SYSTEM >> External GPS

Programs Tab- GPS Program Port: Com4

Hardware Tab- GPS Hardware Port: None, Baud Rate: 4800

Access Tab- Checkmark on "Manage GPS automatically"

Make sure you turn your location on thru your phone settings. Some ROM's do not have it enabled by default.

If you take my research and improve on it all I ask is that you atleast give me credit for the discovery. I've spent a ton of hours working with NV files and PRI's.

Hope everyone enjoys.....

[Touch Pro CDMA] straylight:
Rest assured Bored, your efforts are greatly appreciated. I myself will try this fix when i get out of work. as it is, version 1 never worked for me. no matter how long I fiddled with the HTC utility. I got plenty of satellites used, but none ever fixed, nor did any gps program fix.
[Touch Pro CDMA] dsteinschneider:
Hi lllboredlll - thanks again and general question

I've been following the ppcgeeks thread, btw I would guess everyone on xda is also on ppcgeeks hence the quiet thread here.

I'm one of the stock ROM users whose VZW Touch Pro uses the satellites but doesn't fix right away. They will eventually fix if I leave the HTC utility running and start driving so in every case I can get TomTom connected but it can vary anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes (not really sure on the longer period, that's the longest trip I make, its always fixed by the end.

What's the difference between used and fixed?

Soft reset and immediately going into the HTC GPS app seems to make things go quicker.

Doug
[Touch Pro CDMA] lllboredlll:
Try installing the Quick GPS Utility and run it once a week. This provides sat data that may help lock times.
[Touch Pro CDMA] straylight:
Where would I find the Quick GPS utility?
[Touch Pro CDMA] SolShade:
Used is satellites it can see. fixed means it got a lock on them.

I'm looking for the VGA version.
[Touch Pro CDMA] j77drummer:
is there anyway to have htc gps utility keep the port open so that after i reboot the phone even if not thanks for the GPS lol and awesome work
[Touch Pro CDMA] dsteinschneider:
New ROM from Scott and lllboredlll working for slow fixing touch pro

I first had much trouble with the stock ROM and lllboredlll's gps unlock. It could work but took sometimes 20 minutes to fix. I unocked the phone and installed Scott's ROM from the day before Christmas. At first I thought I hadn't reached success because while inside it acted like it did with the stock ROM and the GPS unlock. Outside and in the car my XV6850 TomTom 7 is locking quicker than my 6700 with a Globalsat BT-359 receiver. Usually in 20 seconds.

Thanks again to Scott and lllboredlll!

Doug
[Touch Pro CDMA] lllboredlll:
glad to see you got it working
[Touch Pro CDMA] Scott:
I have an OEM I was going to bake into ROM. Wasnt sure if that helped or not. Didint want to turn the thread the other way but it did seem to help. Wasnt sure if it was placebo or not.

If you havent found it I can try to CAB it up from OEM. Looks simple... Let m know...
[Touch Pro CDMA] Scott:
Good deal!!!!

See what TEAMWORK does!!!!
[Touch Pro CDMA] Im_Gumby:
It does work by using steps 6 on.

For me, it did give some minor hiccups...

The install worked flawlessly but following the steps on the HTC ap, I was able to open the port but was never able to acquire a fix on a sat.

I then opened TomTom and set it up appropriately.

TomTom recognized the GPS device but was waiting for a fix as well.

After about 40 - 50 seconds from a cold start, it will get a fix.

Everything works beautifully now.

Anybody want to buy a slightly used iTrek M6 Bluetooth GPS device? :D
[Touch Pro CDMA] ditm02:
What exactly does this do? allow us to use 3rd party gps programs?:confused:
[Touch Pro CDMA] lllboredlll:
Yes, it completely unlocks the GPS
