Hey, was hoping that somone could help me out.
Today I tried (and failed) to downgrade my xperia Z5 compact (E5823) from 7.0 to 6.0, I managed to flash everything correctly (i think) however when I turn on my phone I think it has been soft bricked. Just maintains in a reboot loop. I have tried several diffrent Roms (all are for the E5823) and nothing seems to work. Just wondering if im missing somthing, i have downloaded Sony Moblie Flasher and that is what im using to flash my phone. Just need some help really if anyone could provide a Rom that will get my phone up and running again that would be great, better yet if anyone has a 6.0 Rom that would be perfect. Or generally has any advice that they could share
Here are some details I took down before this whole ordeal started:
Build No 23.3.A.2.33
Kernal 3.10.84-perf-g1016077 Build [email protected](hash)1
Baseband
8994-FAAAANAZQ-00059-35
Model Number E5823
Thank you XDA community

Hi guys,
I been waiting here in s.a for andriod update..... hmph useless basically, but i have been informed that if i flash my systems with the british generic it will work. thing being is, i got the very old gen build and everything.
heres my details.
Model :x10i
firmware: 1.6
baseband : 1.0.14
kernel: 2.6.29-rel semc-android (AT) semc #2
build: R1FA014
K here what i need, information on to how to get this system into the new 2.1 system, i seen steps there already for build r2 but nothing on my build so any assistence, also, what should i backup? numbers? apps? (dnt really care abt apps) its mainly my pics, movies and numbers but there on sd card accept my numbers.
This is such a noob thing i know, i been out of the firm bending deal for very long time so any assistence in getting this up and running would be AWESOME!
Oh yea not to bump or anything, as far as i can see my phone where i found all this details out doesnt seam to have any branding of any sort. so i guess even global generic verison would do, but please guys tell me what would be best based on the information given above.
P.s its R.S.A :\ had some one once saying im from south america when where no where near there
Debrand. Go Nordic. Done.
Oh, and also Search!
Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683793
Download X10i_2_0_A_0_504_GLOBAL.
Run the flash tool.
In 3m:40s, your phone will be on v2.1*
*Backup all your data using Titanium Backup and/or SMS Backup & Restore first. Install SEUS, PC Companion and connect your phone in flash mode before using the flasher so that all the drivers install.

Hi sorry for the delay, ok this is soooooo awesome but the point i need to know, my build is really old, will it work fine doing all the things in that link u gave me ? cause that looks like only upgrading the firmware. i will be doing this as soon as i can find this file on another sharing site, im having issues with hotfiles and rapidshare of late. thus the delay in reply .
so will this work on build: R1FA014 as is, or do i need to upgrade something, my phone is non-rooted

It will update both your firmware, 1.6 - 2.1 and build R1FA014 to X10I Global.
Will work on yours.
Hey guys, thanks for the help! best part when i started to do this, getting the SUES to install the correct drivers, i tryed the Online update and sony updated my phone to what seams to be identical version above. so i believe my phone is generaly a global version, Thanks you guys for the support, this gave me a better understanding on how to root a device for future use.
Hy guys
I'm new to Android and 2 months ago i bought a new phone (S G S II) with Android 2.3.6.
I decided it's time to upgrade and i did it with odin, folowing youtube video guide i instaled Android 4.0.3 with i think a new Kernel as well 3.0.15-I9100xxlph-cl118559.
Now with this update i have a problem with my location, everything that uses this facility it doesn't work (location,gps,facebook check in) and so on.Don't get me wrong at first with 2.3.6 they all worked after the upgrade they simply stoped.
What would realy help me is a sugestion of a kernel,ROM and a version of Android 4 (.0.1/2/3/4) that would fully work and indications on how to install them.
I thank you guys in advance and keep up the good work :good:

Download the latest stock firmware using CheckFus entering data for your phone and location. Flash this firmware with ODIN as you already did. Using CheckFus should make sure you get the correct firmware.
This will not lock my phone on the specific carrier (orange) right?
Lock to a carrier? No, not by just flashing a stock firmware.
And after i download the firmware that checkfus says is the last one how to i operate with odin?
Can you please tell me the steps i have to go trough? because last time i saw a video and i did exactly like there so i don't know on my onw.

There are many threads here that tell you how to use Odin, one of which is by Intratech. These threads will help you flashing the firmware you downloaded with CheckFus. Just read them carefully and follow the instructions. Videos are nice but in the end a written text is much better, belief me, it is worth the time of reading
Well i did as you said and it worked,finaly i can enjoy my phone fully and i discovered i have NFC
Thanks for everything
Hello everybody, my device is a Samsung Galaxy S Duos S7652.
I am new at this whole rooting thing, i did my first rooting to be honest yesterday and i chose PMP Ultra custom rom, because it was the best rom for my taste.
Unfortunately i didn't know about baseband compability , and my baseband version was s7562xxlj3 , and now my phone cannot receive or make calls.
I need help, what do i do??
I cant even find my original rom so i can install that, or even a custom rom that supports my baseband..
Can you please help me?
Best regards, Alkis.

I think you are mixing some definitions.
Rooting is providing root capabilities to the phone, this is a standard operation in the *nix world.
Selecting a ROM is formatting the whole system and put a new one and you probably changed the kernel (hence the baseband problem).
Fortunately the phone is not bricked (unable to boot), so my recommendation is try to check if there are other kernels/ROMs compatible and change it.
Fortunately this showed while searching: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42182649&postcount=1708

I would recommend either restoring a NANDROID backup in recovery and if you don't have a backup I would recommend searching for your devices firmware here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/ and then flashing it via Odin. Let me know if you still have questions I'll be happy to help you out.

That's a bit of overkill if they just need the modem, unless it's not been separated out of the original full firmware to flash separately, or you need to update the bootloaders.
To dosadnik2001: Which firmware you need depends on which region the phone is from typically. Sometimes other modems from other firmwares work on unlocked phones, but best to stick with what you know should work right first.
What I do not understand is how the baseband firmware and the custom ROM are related?
I've found some post about changing the baseband firmware and there they say that the ROM doesn't care about the baseband, so you should only change it if there are some optimized baseband that can make your network coverage better. On the other side, I found several post claiming that certain ROM is not working because of the baseband firmware version.
Flashing firmware that is not for your region is again questionable for me. Doesn't this going to mess up somehow the microwave part of the phone and you can have some issues with the network carrier eventually?
Thanks.
After upgrading my M4 Aqua (E2303) to Marshmallow, I can't make or receive phone calls (except occasionally). I've tried repairing the MM install with Xperia Companion, but that doesn't help. Booting into safe mode doesn't help either.
According to the Sony forums, other people have had this problem as well, and there is no Sony solution forthcoming. One person has said that going back to Lollipop solved the problem. However, when looking into how to go back to Lollipop, apparently I need a Lollipop FTF file to use with Flashtools. But I can't find any for the M4, just Marshmallow ones. Does anyone know where one is to be found? Or has any other advice about fixing the call problem in Marshmallow? That would be much appreciated.
Actually, even a generic Lollipop version would do, I'd be quite happy to debrand at the same time.

Thanks for that. I'm still waiting to hear from Sony, to see what they say first, but I may have to use that.
I went back to Lollipop using Flashtools and a Lollipop FTF file I found on Xperia blog:
http://www.xperiablog.net/forum/resources/categories/xperia-m4-aqua.78/
The file I used was the one called 'E2303_26.1.A.2.167_R16A_UK Generic_1293-9369'.
All my problems have now gone away.
It's not easy working out exactly how to downgrade. The best instructions were probably these:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2016/03/12/install-xperia-marshmallow-using-flashtool-and-xperifirm-guide/
But there's quite a few complications, and I found reading around the web on this issue helped.
There is a risk involved. There's no guarantee it will work. You may end up bricking your phone. (But my phone had become pretty much useless anyway.)
Hey yall! I hope this is in the right place, if not my apologies. I got myself a G5 and I love except i made a terrible mistake...I upgraded the system from Marshmellow 6.0.1 to Nougat 7.0 and my phone has had nothing but problems and glitches. I want and really need to downgrade this phone to 6.0.1 but I have no idea how and id rather not brick my phone. I have been over several forums already on this site and none of them have the same procedure. One says i need to download this another says i dont need that etc etc.I would like to downgrade to 6.0.1 easily and with minimal risk if possible. If someone could give me a clear easy to understand step by step guide that would be much appreciated. I have the Canadian H831 running android 7.0. Software Version is h83120a. If you need anymore info please let me know.
Thank you in advance

I use android 7 on my H850 and it's smooth, as I can see here, you're using the initial version of android 7 (20a). Have you try to check if there's any newer Nougat version of your model (H831) through OTA or LG brigde or kdz?

You need to download the Android 6 kdz. You can check here for one specific to your model https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/list-lg-g5-stock-kdz-firmware-t3365941. Once you downloaded the kdz use LGUP or uppercut to flash it to your phone. If you're unable to successfully flash it (like it errors out every time), it may be that you can't downgrade to MM from N. I'd try to use LGUP first, but if you can't get it to work try uppercut. Read those threads for instructions on how to use the tools. Feel free to ask more questions if you have any and I'll try to answer. Hopefully this helps.

Here's another source for H831 KDZ files: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h831-firmwares/#more-1685 Links to a number of MM ROMs can be found there. I have no experience with the H831, but I have successfully downgraded from N to MM on my H850 with LGUP. You should be aware, though, that there have been a number of reports of downgrading problems with the G5.
Make sure you read instructions carefully! Downgrades are easy to hard brick aka all bad.
