Reboots when put into R/W mode? - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my tablet yesterday and while trying to get my Time Warner Cable TV app to work again with the root I needed to edit the build prop. When I put it into read/write mode the xtz rebooted and everything worked normally after that. Its only when I put it into r/w mode no matter what app I use to do it. Anyone know a fix?

[Q] Android malfunction...

Now, first and foremost, Hello to the XDA community and this would be my first post. I am having issues with my Xperia Neo V and I can't find a solution for it.
I admit that this is a stupid mistake on my end so let me start my story and I am hoping to get some assistance from a reputable community such as this.
I was installing some games via Google Play and I realized that my phone's internal memory gets full kinda fast as it is where files are saved by default. So, the genius me, tried to remove some stock apps that may contribute to useless disk space using Titanium Backup. All went well and I deleted a couple of stuff and it worked fine then I decided to restart it to factory settings (without doing backup which I regret up until now). I had several malfunctions after it rebooted again:
Whenever I am trying to go to phone book, I am unable to just press the number to make a call. I need to select edit contact first before calling
The middle button (the one with a house Icon, probably called Home Button, does not respond at all so I having a hard time quitting apps
the worst part, I am unable to connect the phone properly using USB. What happens is that when I plug the USB, the charging symbol on the battery bar shows it's charging (like plugged to a wall jack) but the computer does not show anything, regardless if it's Media transfer mode or Mass Storage mode (mass storage shows an empty drive in My Computer). I tried using other usb cables and other memory cards and apparently, it does not work. Other USB cables that works on other xperia neos yeild the same result.
What I was planning to do initially is to update the firmware (currently on 2.3.4), but updating via WiFi shows it's updated, and using the PC Companion does not work.
I know I deleted something that I should not and I'm at a loss. Later, I will attempt to connect my phone in the PC Companion to try and update it to ICS connecting it to my private wifi. Hopefully it would do the trick.
Another work around that Im thinking is to look for someone that does have a backup of the apk files so that I can restore them again in my phone.
Can anyone please assist me on this? T_T
I recommend connecting the device to your PC companion and using the repair option. If that doesn't work, try flashing a stock ROM from either Wotan or get one somewhere from these forums (I'm sure there were a few in the development section)
Good luck

Why don't you just flash an orginal rom (.ftf)?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690
And then (after you get what you deleted) you just need to get them into your phone. If you were able to uninstall it, you!re having root. So send it to the phone via bluetooth or download from somewhere via wifi (if the USB doesn't work as you told) and using some file explorer move it to their directory and reboot. I think it should work

~sir...I cant find where that repair option is..
~by the way, the wifi option to connect looks pretty useless, it seems that you need to connect via usb on the "pairing" stage...
Ok here's my idea. Get any stock based rom from the dev page (there's a list in the sticky posts) and male sure it's the proper version. Then download the zip file and open it up. Find system/app or system/data/app or something similar inside the zip. Then simply copy and paste the apps from there to your phone, and don't forget the proper permissions.

If you can put the files into SD card, then use whot venoma333 says and do it through SD card - you can move a lots of files together (for example using ES file explorer).
Or you can try to connect your phone to S(E)US or Flashtool. If it would work, that will be the best for you And I think, that in PCC is some option to "re-flash" your phone (like somebody told here). On the top it says if your phone has the newest firmware version or not. Click on on it and you'll get a window with reapair option
Ok, I'm going to attempt to flash and I reached the xperia website (unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/instructions), and based on the instructions, I checked if "Bootloader unlock allowed" is set to yes, unfortunately, my phone says no.. Can I still continue the process??If not, is it still possible to do manual firmware update without unlocking the bootloader?
There is no need to unlock bl for flash process. So forget that page, for now.
You mentioned pc companion, what happens when you start pc comp. and connect your phone(turned on)?
If it doesn't connect to pcc, go to device manager on your pc and tell me how is your phone named there and does it have yellow ! mark next to it?
This is the last thing that I think could possibly work, does anyone know an android 2.3.4 iso nandroid? I think that's the best way to do it for now..I am unable to do the hold back button while restarting, does not work for me

Nothing happens in PCC, it will show that no devices are found. In DM, it shows:
-Sony Ericsson sa0102
|_Sona sa0102 ABD Interface driver
I was trying to update it using PCC, it recognizes the device after I mount the memory card.
What I have done, I restored the system using CWM using this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1630348.html
It worked, however, since the carrier and model brand is not the same, I was unable make my sim card/carrier to work.
My hope now is to get an ISO file for android version 2.3.4 which is from a generic phone. I live in the Philippines and my carrier is SMART telecommunications.
Apparently, the update from the link is for a Verizon phone
If you want alot of space, use a small ROM. Alot of devs have come up with stock Xperia GB ROMs that are easy on memory. To fix, You'll need to flash the entire phone with a stock ROM. Then flash a custom ROM. Besides that, you do know you can transfer apps to SD.

How to mount internal SD with a Dead screen!?

My SGS 2 screen is done for. The phone still boots up and responds normally otherwise.
I am running a Gingerbread 2.36 Siyah Kernel on it.
How do I get my data of the phone by mounting the Sd card?
Maybe someone who has this kernel can tell me what to blindly press after holding Vol Up plus power to get to the mount internal SD menu.
Thanks!

Lol, its not that easy as said by u, 'Will Try closing my eyes and walk in the midst of a Heavy Traffic and see what happens'.
Either replace ur screen (either by paying or warranty claim) if not take it to a nearest service center and see what best they can do for u
If you want the stuff from the card, remove it and use a card reader. If you want the stuff from the internal storage, this gets tricky....
Get your phone to a service center and specifically tell that they need to just replace the faulty screen. So no JB updates, motherboard replacement or wiping the device clean.
Sent from my digital submersible hovercraft.
Really guys? Take it to a service centre? I already knew that.
I don't have the money to take it into a service centre. Phone is out of warranty.
Replacing screen costs money too. About $300 in Australia, may as well buy a new phone.
Actually if I boot into recovery the phone is already rooted etc it is that easy.
All i need to knwo is volume up down power, up, power etc.
Or there was some android app windows sdk where you simply mnt/sdcard etc while connected to USB.

I'm not exactly sure but it the one after installing Darky rom HD gingebread, Or as its now called alliance rom V1.1 Ginerbread.
I just installed the latest GGB compatible Siyah Kernel on top of it and thats it.
It is non touch. Not too many menus, maybe 6.

That sounds like a better idea. Mashing around blindly in recovery seems pretty risky to me, especially if you're not sure what version you have. Unfortunately I don't know the first thing about ABD either, sorry. Good luck.
I just plugged in the phone to samsung kies, and it detects it just fine, but it says to set the phone to USB samsung kies mode and it doesnt support this mode. ATM I am in USB debug mode.
Surely there is a progam that acceses the phone via debug mode?
OR even via Download mode?
I am giving this Android SDK a go, holy crap it is so complex. I installed some packages, double clicked on ABD under sdk>platform tools, and a command prompt window comes up, a bunch of text flies by in 1 second and it automatically closes..

Gotta say this community is just abysmal at handing out help.
To the dude above asking what android version. Read the OP before spending time asking a useless question. I said 2.36. And windows or mac...? Do you really think I would not find be willing to use either if there was a way to recover my data.
If anyone is interested here is how I solved my problem, this simplest method could not simply be mentioned here?
I turned my phone on. Let it boot. Then I plugged in the USB cable from the computer. The phone should register the connection either via vibrate or noise, and in "my computer" the drives show up but are inaccessible by windows explorer, or kies because USB debugging is On.
go to google play store via your browser, preferably chrome. search for a a program called My phone explorer. Select install. It should install it to your phone. Look in the description and install the PC side of the software on your PC.
Open "my phone explorer" on your pc and voilla should be able to sync
I only wish someone could tell me this instead of having to fluke it on my own

[Q][Trouble]ADB Devices unauthorized. How to fix?

Im in bit of a problem here.
With the new security check in 4.2+ I have to accept my computer on my device when using adb. Fair enough. Problem is I just broke my screen/digitizer and thereby cant accept. I am rooted and have custom recovery. I need adb to extract my data and I want to get screencast work as well.
I hear you say "why not just use the same computer as you rooted it on in the first place". Well thats just not possible anymore..
Device Nexus 7 (2012) android 4.2.2 (rooted and CW recovery)
What options do I have to work around this? All I can think of is downgrading to prior android, but Im not sure how well that will work, neither do I know how to push romfiles without adb.
Help/ideas even opinions is greatly appreciated!

I have this exact same problem right now.
Would love to get a solution for this.
If you need to extract some files and you have a broken screen do not change android versions as chances are it will make it very difficult to extract any info (as in it will be wiped)
Maybe try a tool like android commander or droid explorer to control device with PC, if this won't work see if you can boot to recovery and use adb in there

Im on hold when it gets to downgrading so far. Im not familiar with Android Commander, but Droid Explorer requires adb to be working. And that is kinda my whole problem. I cant accept my PC as a secure adb-client since the digitizer is broken (touch input wont work). I hope there is a way to override this through recovery or some other way.
Breakdown:
When connecting device to computer (adb), I have to (on my device) accept my computer as secure. This is a problem since digitizer is broken.

Like I said if these programs don't work use a recovery, if you current recovery won't work then flash a new one with fastboot, I'm pretty sure you'll be able to use adb in recovery without having to authorize, or if you plan on an exact device replacement just make a nanadroid and restore with new device

Are you sure you have only 1 instance of the adb.exe and it's the latest one?
Try where adb.exe from commandpromt, you may have another adb.exe somewhere in Windows directory.
I do have more than one instance of ADB.exe installed yes, but does that matter to my problem? My Nexus isnt even showing up in fileexplorer in windows. So I cant access my files. Or am I wrong here?

First: Delete all ADB.exe you can find on your computer.
Second: You have to update the ADB, no matter how - download from internet or using the android SDK. But you need to use the latest version!
Optional: replug the cable and run adb devices. This can make the authorization toast to appear.
Then you will get your device authorized.

I have had the same problem with my S4.
After updating ADB i did "adb devices" and got my S4 as offline, and i noticed the popup on my phone, accepted and my samsung is now working fine with ADB.
FYI before the above mention operation i have tried everything, even making sure i run the correct adb.exe but there was no popup.
First of all kill the adb server via task manager then when you start the adb command-line type In ADB root this may solve your problem :thumbup:

I'm having the same problem as the OP... This is impossible. *the screen and digitizer are broken*
The question is "How can I bypass the New authorization, since I can't click anything on my phone". I can't check "USB Debugging" - I need the phone screen and digitizer to do that. come on people, read the post.
Has anyone figured this out? I'm having a similiar problem except my screen isn't broken. I forgot to make a backup and my OS got erased and I'm getting the unauthorized notification in ADB. You have to be able to get into the OS to accept the authorization so I'm at a catch 22. I have a Nexus 7 so I can't swap out a different SD card.

Reviving a dead L9

Hello,
I've read numerous times about people being able to restore their dead bricked phones. No button combination will get my LG Optimus L9 P769 (T-mobile) to turn on. I think bricked it while trying to complete a carrier unlock. I understand that I can try to restore my phone through either fastboot or kdz. For fastboot, I was able to install the omap driver, but you know how I'm supposed to install a second driver? Well, I can't seem to do that. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I would love an explanation of how to install the driver a second time. I know I'm doing something wrong, because when I use the fastboot script to flash the xloader and uboat, I just get "waiting for device." Also, if I want to flash a kdz, do I need fastboot drivers? I feel like my success depends on installing the fastboot drivers properly, but my computer and two others would not let me do that.
I'm really new to this stuff, so any help is appreciated! Also, please excuse me if I'm using the terminology incorrectly. Like I said, I'm new to all this.
Thank you in advance!
To install a kdz, you need to be in upgrade mode. Hold the volume up button then connect it to the computer.

Hello, I can't get into fastboot. It may be that the phone battery does not have a charge and so the fastboot script does not recognize it when I insert it into the phone after 4 seconds. Could that be a possibility? Because I tried everything, tried many different timings many times, to no avail!

I was just in the same boat as you and pretty much gave up hope but finally got fastboot working and flashed ics x and u and bam it worked like a charm on offline flash method. You just have to pit usb cable in phone w/o battery in and go to device manager. When you see it popup under other devices right click and press install driver. Make sure you have electronic signatures disabled or it will give a error and not install. This is what prevented me from getting it to work the first 100 times! Now run CMD. TYPE CD C:/FASTBOOT < OR C:/ W/E FOLDER NAME IT IS. THEN RUN START.BAT. < OR W/E THE .BAT FILE INSIDE YOUR FILE IS NAMED. Now press enter. It should prompt to plug in phone. I put my battery in as soon as plugged in and it worked. Now Choose option 5. Let it do its thing. Now go reinstall driver as done before to be safe. Then remove your battery. Hold volume + button and plug usb in. S/W upgrade mode should come up. Slide your battery in and proceed to the offline flash method to flash you kdz file. Should be alive again! Mine was tricky going into sw upgrade mode. Sometimes it came right up then sometimes it took 4 or 5 tries so dont give up! Goodluck and you can do it! I almost gave up I felt so hopeless about getting it to work then it finally worked like a charm!

I was thinking maybe there's a problem with the battery, like it doesn't have a charge or something. Because when I run fastboot it doesn't detect the battery no matter what timing I used. I tried everything. If I use the old fastboot script and I get to "fastboot? y or N" and I enter y, it keeps asking the same question.

Have you read my post about enabling hidden/inactive devices in device manager?
If you havent you should read it and if you have
When the inverted fastboot pops up (on your phone) remove the usb and place it back in.

Yes, i've read that post (I think I've read everything on xda related to fastboot!) I don't get an inverted fastboot on the phone's screen. My phone doesn't turn on at all.. Like I said, I'm still struggling to get into fastboot.
Could be a problem with the battery? I'm going to get an external battery charger and try charging the battery.

How did your device get in this state? Depending on what happened your device may not be fixable.

It died after I plugged it into the computer. I never rooted it and has the stock software. Before dying I also carrier-unlocked it using a cheap code from ebay.
