I used unsin for the .sin file and gave me an.ext4 file containing just a bunch of pictures like for the certificate that the Sony phone uses.

I JUST FINISH REDOWNLOADING THE HK FIRMWARE AND I GET THE SAME RESULT

3 FILES UNPACKED.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
Sorry I downloaded the SEA version by accident, downloading HK now was no issue with the Sea variant unpacked automatically will check HK once downloaded, some reason the download speed is locked at 2MBs not sure why must be the UK server maybe idk
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Al Ferro:
I have good news, after downloading the firmware again for the 4th or 5th time, it finally unpacked it the right way. I wanna thank everyone that stepped in to try to find out what was going on.👍🙂
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
Nice one, I've just woke up and checked my download and it unpacked was about to zip and upload for you, glad it's sorted itself out for you 🙂
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Al Ferro:
One little thing happened though, when I installed the HK firmware, my phone did not have any sound at all, I even installed it two times and I ended up installing the Taiwanese firmware instead.😠

Same thing happened installing the SEA firmware....no sound at all.😠
[Sony Xperia 1 V] metallic.steel:
Were you guys able to install the new firmware on rooted device?

If so, does it process require factory reset?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Al Ferro:
At least this firmware version ...well, i installed it and then rooted it, but my phone did not have any sounds at all after the installation process ended, instead i installed the lower Taiwanese version and I rooted it and then my phone had sound. So you just install stock firmware and then go through the rooting process with Magisk.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] metallic.steel:
Before installing the new firmware on your rooted device, what did you do first? Did you install it directly on the root or did you change or remove some app like magisk before that?

And after installing will the phone become unrooted?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Al Ferro:
What I was doing was installing new firmware version on a rooted phone, I did not uninstall magisk prior to that ,I just flashed the new firmware version because it erases everything leaving you with a new stock firmware version and then do the rooting process again with magisk. (Prior root of course gets deleted if you flash new stock firmware over old rooted firmware installed)
[Sony Xperia 1 V] metallic.steel:
Thank you for the info. 👌
[Sony Xperia 1 V] metallic.steel:
I have decided to flash the latest firmware.

Could you help me with the steps on how to flash the latest firmware and what tools I need?

[Sony Xperia 1 V] drdieselal:
You need newflasher and xperifirm to do that. Just follow the guide for newflasher. Alternatively, you can just use xperia companion (can be downloaded from the sony website).
[Sony Xperia 1 V] metallic.steel:
Does Xperia Companion work on a rooted device?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] drdieselal:
It requires the bootloader to be locked, so the answer is essentially no. Just use the newflasher, it works great.

I've just bought a Redmi note 13 pro cause my old phone (xiaomi mi 10 lite 5g) got broken, but after some days of usage i noticed in third party apps the front camera simply doesnt work well, the preview it's just fine but when u shot it's gets blurry and bad, if i use it from normal camera it works fine.

it's feel sad and kinda strange cause actually the mi 10 lite 5g never had this problem even toh the phone was much older and actual cheaper lol

do u guys perhaps know any way to fix this problem?thanks in advance..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G / Poco X6 5G] haziqbutt:
Had same issue so i upgraded to hyper os thinking a software update could fix it, now main camera app does the same thing. Good in preview but when i take the photo its blurred.

For me just for selfies installing gcam (google camera) helped as the difference in quality between the 2 apps is massive.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G / Poco X6 5G] svemogucci:
Same thing here. This is big issue with this phone, i would like to contact xiaomi regarding this problem with blured and blend photos in whatsapp app. They should explain why this happening.

Do somebody know maybe how to contact xiaomi, in the best way?

[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] Berrada005:
Hello,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra MWD (Morocco) and I recently flashed an official EUX ROM on it. In the process, I chose the CSC file instead of the HOME_CSC file. I'd like to know if this was the right choice and if not, what should I do to remedy the situation. In addition, I am curious about whether I will continue to receive MWD OTA updates or whether I will now receive EUX updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] Zxalilh:
You will continue to get updates unless you root your phone. Home_csc basically means you keep your data. If you use the CSC instead of the home_csc, it will repartition meaning you will lose all of your data.

Hey all,

Here, i have got into a challenging situation, while flashing custom rom on my device, there was some issue occured

and then It was not able to continue flashing,

so, clean dalvik, cache, data etc.

changed data partition type to f2fs for Evolution ROM,

All the above process done through OrangeFox recovery,

and refer to various tutorials,

And somewhere some STUPID FELLOW posted a post or video I don't remember to clean all and reboot,

And I being more stupid followed it,

Now, the partition is f2fs type or some corrupted, no recovery, and it stucked on fastboot logo only.

Also tried "raphaelin_in_global_images_V12.5.1.0.RFKINXM_20210629.0000.00_11.0_in" with "MiFlash20220507" It showed timeout error.

totally goofed up.

even added to it, now its not detecting in platform tools, after trying to flash with MiFlash20220507

Can someone help me out for that?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Zxalilh:
Could you try an older version of the Mi flash tool? You have to create a folder called log where the program files are on the newer versions of the tool.
[Android Head-Units] zaid34108:
Hey everyone, is there any way to make android auto run at 60fps? Android auto in a 2017 Mazda 3 stock unit runs silky smooth at a constant 60fps and feels great to use, but I can't seem to get that same experience with joying. I've got the 9 inch android 12 snapdragon 6125 unit.

Tried using zlink wired/wireless, using the same USB cable that the Mazda has 60fps with, got headunit reloaded and tried that both in self mode and via wifi as well. None of these have worked and the experience in AA is always laggy/slow/sluggish. Panning the map is stuttery, the response latency after a tap is too much, the whole experience is just extremely poor, especially considering the specs of the unit. Outside of AA though it's silky smooth, using waze from the unit itself and not from AA is an amazing experience for example, and I've never noticed any sort of lag other than in AA.

Hi, is there any way of connecting to MSN by wifi?

Everytime I connect it uses GPRS.
[XPERIA X1 General] danielsoh:
Yes, you need go to Settings -> Connections. Click Advanced tab, Select networks and change 'Prog that automatically connect to the Internet...' to My ISP or My Workplace.

Bear in mind, you'll have to change it back to your telco's internet settings or you won't be able to go to the internet on GPRS.
[XPERIA X1 General] viz741:
I have done this, yet still it connects via GPRS. Am I missing something?:confused:

I've tried the same options and it still wants to connect by GPRS too. :(
[XPERIA X1 General] SquidgyB:
Are you guys using the stock ROM that came with the phone, particularly if you're on a contract with vodafone/etc?

As I remember some carriers force you to use the data connection rather than the wifi, I can't remember how to fix it though. I use one of the clean ROMS and install applications myself, and mine works fine both on wifi and GPRS/HSDPA with no change of settings inbetween.

So I failed miserably at upgrading to Android 14 (cRdroid) I was on Android 12 then I noticed my mistake and a bunch of other mistakes later. I am stuck at the "bootloader is unlocked something about software integrity" screen and I don't know what to do. It just boots to that screen and then shuts off it still gets recognized by my PC although its unauthorized now as there is no adb or fastboot recognization anymore. The phone is network unlocked and I just unlocked the OEM before all the bs happened. I didn't come for pity I just want to know straight up am I screwed or can I fix this? I should have done way more research and read way more I regret it all but regret isn't gonna get me anywhere. Please someone come save the day lol I am highly frustrated at my own faults!

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] bxlr:
There's another thread that goes into detail, but apparently someone in asia has flashed hundreds of SO-02K devices with a rom that masquerades as a UK G8441 rom, and is selling them "new" "global" with shrinkwrap and fake packaging. The bands are still different in spite of the flash. Who knows how "new" they actually are.

I've found you can look this up by IMEI, so perhaps ask sellers for that first.

If you physically have one, the service menu works too (*#*#7378423#*#*). Service Info>Software Info will have a Type Number which is basically an alternate model # they forgot to spoof. G8441 is PM-1061-BV, SO-02K is PM-1060-BV.

I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes, as it seems 3g is the main defect with US + SO-02k and I'm pretty much always on LTE these days. The price difference between the two models also seems to have normalized for now, probably because it's hard to tell which you're getting. Only SO-02K roms can be flashed while locked, I wasted a few hours attempting to flash a G8441 rom.

Here's a band comparison:

Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact TD-LTE SO-02K (Sony Lilac) Compatibility on T-Mobile (United States) Mobile Network

Find out if the Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact TD-LTE SO-02K (Sony Lilac) will work on T-Mobile (United States). See which frequency bands are compatible.

Find out if the Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact TD-LTE G8441 will work on T-Mobile (United States). See which frequency bands are compatible.

It's hard to tell if anyone has used j4nn's root exploit on a SO-02K, but I might give it a try.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] bxlr:
To update, I ended up returning the device thanks to being able to provide convincing evidence and didn't really test it too extensively as a result. 3g phonecalls didn't work but LTE seemed to work. I never got VoLTE working on my real G8441 either so wasn't sure how to even try with an SO-02k.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] bxlr:
Try 2: Just got a second G8441 that the seller assured me was an actual one.

It was indeed a global model, coming in the proper sized box and shrinkwrapped (the fake one was in a too big box).

But the bootloader was unlocked. Unfortunately this one was advertised as refurbished so I don't think I have as much leverage to return it, plus I'm tired of waiting for china shipping. It sounds like it would be difficult to ask sellers about bootloader status if these things are shrinkwrapped.

I suppose I'll just deal with certain apps not liking the bootloader.

It's on Android 9 and the camera seems fine at first glance. I'll research more on DRM key state.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] tonsofquestions:
I saw one for sale yesterday in a too-big box, here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/315267435289

I was surprised, and didn't end up going for it. Interestingly, it did have the NFC logo on the back, which I thought the Docomo ones did not.

I think if it's advertised as Refurbished, then I would expect it to be factory reset and re-locked. An unlocked bootloader (especially when not reversible) should be stated clearly and so isn't as advertized. But YMMV. Good luck with the keys. Don't forget to check the attest state, too!
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] bxlr:
I actually bought that one lol. Odd box, not like the counterfeit one which looked rectangular instead of square like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/354270355970.

I think I can return #2 if I pay return shipping. I made #1 guy pay the return shipping.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] tonsofquestions:
Ha, small world.

That rectangular box is the one I'm more used to, yes. But maybe some region had a square one -it's possible.

I'd fight for the shipping, it can't hurt. Not advertising that something isn't in a factory clean state (unlocked means it's missing data and may have been tampered with) is not as the listing said.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] j4nn:
Maybe we are actually lucky that they do not have that exploit - the cheating would get to a whole new level.

Imagine they could run the actual international G8441 firmware (except the bootloader) on the SO-02K motherboard, yet not getting it fully working due to hw differences, like NFC for example, resulting with bad battery life.

And it would still not support the international LTE bands, as they most likely would not be able to fix up modem setup in TA.

That is not all what you need. They changed several TA units too. For sure the one that holds the model name.

Those units can be flashed easily with newflasher, no need to even patch it.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] nlra:
That thought also crossed my mind while I was writing my earlier reply!

You are referring to TA unit 2210 (0x8a2). They are not changing that unit. The phone is changing it by itself.

Specifically, when stock Xperia Android boots, it will take the value of prop ro.semc.product.model, and write that value to that TA unit.

I know this because I tested it. I also noticed that after unlocking the bootloader of my SO-02K and then flashing the G8441 system partition to it, that TA unit was suddenly changed to G8441 right after booting it for the first time on that phone. (Also if I plug it into my computer and put it into S1 flash mode with Sony Emma running, Emma identifies it as G8441!) When I first saw this, I was confused because I definitely did not change it myself.

Since the config.prop files in "oem" partition are processed last, any overlapping prop values in there will override/take precedence over ones set earlier in the boot process. So if you set ro.semc.product.model inside of /oem/system-properties/config.prop for example, and then reboot, then that TA unit will be changed to match that.

This is exactly what the counterfeiters did. So all you need to do in order to reverse that is re-flash oem.sin. The factory oem.sin will not have the prop override in it, so the phone will fall back to the one in /system/build.prop, and automatically change the TA unit back for you.

It's possible they changed other TA units manually, but I kind of doubt it.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] basdriver62:
Hello everyone, I have been working on a little side project for a while now, and this is what I came up with. I went through and created a couple of docs full of data on just about any Android 10 ROMs that you can get for this phone. To be more specific, I am talking about the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro, or Kenzo. I even added in all the A11 ROMs that I could find. Attached below are all of the documents I created, with a brief and a full version of the main Excel spreadsheet. You will find an Excel spreadsheet with various benchmarks, as well as a sheet full of data on the different A11 and A12 ROMs you can flash.

Although I did do various benchmarks, most of the time they don't really mean much of anything, and I have no intentions of starting anything. I am not trying to offend anyone with this, I just wanted to get this data out there. I am sticking with AncientOS as a personal preference, but try whatever ROM you want. We should be able to get a year or two out of this phone before the Google Chrome updates are dropped, and this data may help you to make your decision. I tried all of the kernels as well, and I am pretty confidently using AGNi on A10.

I have had this phone for many years and I absolutely love it! However, I fear that custom ROMs may finally be going on the wayside. I cataloged the benchmark scores of the 12 ROMs with the most features, alphabetized the ROMs and put how many features, tabs, and sub-tabs there are overall. Though this list is quickly becoming outdated, I think that a lot of these ROMs may carry on with newer versions, with similar features and settings. I will likely buy a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra or S25 Ultra in time, and just bank on one phone for more than a couple of years.

That is, if we even still use smartphones by that time. Last but not least, kudos to all of the creators of all of this excellent AOSP software, thank you! I hope that this proves useful to you!

Hey everyone,

I'm encountering a problem with the Themes app on my Redmi Note 13 Pro. First of all it's not showing it in my app drawer but after I uninstalled the updates from settings - apps it's get appear for while (like 1 to 2 mins) Whenever I try to open the app, it either doesn't respond or displays a notice saying it's not available in my region, even though it's installed. I've also noticed that after clearing the app data, the problem persists.

*Device Information:*

- Model: Redmi Note 13 Pro

- OS: MIUI 13

- Region: India

*Steps I've Tried:*

1. Clearing app data and cache.

2. Restarting the device.

3. Contacting customer care, who suggested the above steps, which unfortunately didn't resolve the issue.

4. Considering formatting the device, but unable to do so as the device is financed by Bajaj Finance and cannot be formatted until it's fully paid off.

5. I tried to chage the region also but it's not working, either the blotware games get installed 😅

*Additional Notes:*

- This issue started since I bought this device

- All other apps and functions on my device are working fine.

- I've checked my region settings and they seem to be correct.

Has anyone else experienced this problem or found a solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
