Annoying problem with SoftKeyZ - Sony Xperia L

Recently I started using SoftKeyZ and i changed all my navigation bar's button and accidentally didn't keep a backup of the stock ones (I really regret it).
Anyways, most of the buttons look good but the back button is bigger than the others making it quite disturbing. The thing is that I've got fed up and I really need someone's help/suggestions.
Current version 15.3.A.0.26
Rooted without Unlocking the Bootloader
Also changed density from 240 to 180(that doesn't seem to be the problem)
Lastly, I would greatly appreciated a suggestion that doesn't need a pc as this period i do lack of it.
Thanks in advance

Uhm thanks a lot I visit that link you suggested, very interesting indeed. Though i was searching for something similar to the stock navigation bar the first example in the link is quite attractive.Now in this post the process seem quite small but rather confusing
(1.Deodex your firimware
2.User kernel with CWM
3.Flash through CWM)
My question is what deodexing my firmware means and what CWM mean as well . I also have a locked bootloader. will I need to unlock it for this process? And lastly is it Time consuming? As i get limited amount of time on a pc Because of school mainly. Thanks again

cwm for lockbootloader is still under development..
so you have to pushed the file manually using root explorer(of course you must rooted your phone 1st..)

Hi,
if you also have the N800 I would suggest you downlload the Taiwan101_CWM_N800_Recovery (http://www.4shared.com/rar/73z80xNK/Taiwan101_CWM_N800_Recovery.html) and simply flash it with SP tool.
I accidentaly bricked my phone by flashing the wrong boot.img and recovery and with the mentioned one by Taiwan101 It worked for me and I could successfully unbrick my phone.
Good Luck.

Figured it out. yall can just use N8000's root. it will work.
Do guys notice the touchscreen is a lil less responsive on light touches? I believe its bcoz the ics used is for 5 inch screen which is scaled down to 4.3 so the sensitivity size should be increased but its not. I might be wrong.

Factory Restore

i want to root my phone but Sprint seems to have patch the root exploit, so i am thinking of doing a factory restore.
does anyone know what software version it will resort back to, currently i am on 2.3.4.
You will still be on 2.3.4 you need to search for the method then reds until your head hurts

This root method works wonders nothing is more better then to learn to manually root your device. Of course you can use the tool provided in the, the development forums, but I personally enjoy learning to do things without the use of developed tools.
If you need help feel free to ask we are here to help ^_^
Good luck don't turn your device into a brick READ READ AND READ FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY HOW THEY ARE YOU WILL BE A OK.

Use the manual method by Indirect if you want to have more control over what you're doing (also does not void your warranty) and definitely read read read
I would recommend at least going through the whole "user" section of xda-university before even touching your phone, it has tons of useful information

Definitely, also just FYI but when you do a factory restore that simply wipes all app data (both user and system apps)

Best advice I can give you is to Read, Read, Read, and Read some more. Use the search function a ton, as it will help you to get used to resolving issues in the future. Because sometimes even when people are willing to help, answers are hard to come by. Also there are a few links you can check out in my Signature. The Shift community is one of the Best anywhere, so you picked the right device to learn Android with . Welcome to a great forum.
yes yes, i have rooted like 5 phones, but this one is stuck in a boot loop and trying to fix that

Na i was using you shift rootility tutorial, but i screwed up and put the wrong PG06IMG.zip in the $path. there was 2 versions a 12.7MB and a 227MB one. i didn't realize that i needed to do the 227MB to downgrade first then after it's downgraded then use the 12.7MB one.
so i stopped mid way through and tried to boot normally, which sent me into a boot loop. doing a factory restore fixed the boot-loop and now i am starting over again.
BTW CNexus you have some dead links in your Tut.
You will be on older radios after rooting. Download the ZIP with the most recent radios, WiMAX, and touchscreen firmware from HERE or HERE.

"starting services" does not stop...on boot up

Hi all , just joined xda-developers but i spend straight 14 hours trying to fix this DAMM photon q yesterday
all i got in the end is a normal boot after following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001108
BUT at the startup , the screen comes like for a millisecond and then this " starting services" logo doesn't go at all...it just continues forever
any help would be appreciate .
Can you explain what your setup is, and exactly what you've done to get where you are?
For example, you were bootloader official unlocked, on CWM and asa-10, etc.
Thanks.

Still doesn't tell me what you've done, what state the phone is actually in, etc.
I thought my question was pretty straightforward. Unless you provide more detail, I don't know how anyone will be able to help you.
Is this a stolen device? Why is it not qualified for the official unlock? Either way, how does that play into what's wrong with the device?
Did you have custom recovery on it? Give some details!!!

i think i am a noob at explaining things but let me try again...i don't know the exact history of this phone , my friend gave it to me yesterday and its not stolen ... he paid his insurance every month but then who know what he did... i have no idea why its not qaulified for the official unlock probably because he bought a new phone on the same line so the company deactivated this phone..
ok so when i got the phone yesterday , the bootlocker logo appeared and i was unable to do anything ...then i installed CWMrecovery and it was successfull and then i installed every possible rom available online as far as i know but same thing happened with all of them ..... successfully installed , it reboots and little square thing saying " starting services..." and then it does not go away at all ... but at the same time i am able to bring the top menu ..and go to the settings and everything from there but i can't go to home screen since ...it is black and is occupied by "starting services.."
so finally i came accross this thread for master reboot and i followed it ....i installed TWRrecovery and made backup and then restored a backup providers by that guy ... i flashed new stock recovery after that... so following his thread , he told that if all went successful ... it will return to original stock
and now i am at the same screen as previous... " starting serivces..." my friend told me he tired to root it and he messed up really bad ..so i believe there is still some old files in the internal storage from previous rom versions.... but i deleted everything......wiped, data facotry reset and then
installed a clean backup provided by the thread starter...... and everyone else had success except me ...
i hope i answered your questions if not .. i would aprreciate if you tell me what exactly you want to know ..... thanks
i also tired every US ROMS from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/asanti_c/list.php
and all of them showed " starting services.." after i installed them from sdcard using CWMrecovery.

Oneplus one rebooting at boot animations!!! Please help

I have been using Oneplus one for like 1 year or so, and its a beast :good: without wasting time lets COME TO THE POINT "i have a problem":
1) it reboots continuously when at Boot animation, things i have already done>>
a)factory reset,
b)installed various other roms,:crying:
c)did unbrick technique,
d)flashed stock rom using ADB shell,
e)Erased and flashed persist.img,
F)contacted support team, they took a Remote session but all in vain,
Phew!!! but no luck
NOTE:
it reboots only when i flash Android version 5.0 or higher.
On kitkat it works fine what could be the reason, This a'int a hardware problem i guess .
Bonus query(That may help ) :
2)When i got the oneplus after flashing many roms,
I noticed it shows only 1869 MB ram while its 3 GB (should be 2556 mb or so),
and 2.5/2,7 Gb in android version 5.0 or higher,
SO PLEASE ANDROIDIANS , HELP ME!!!!!!
@adarsh58 I assume that you've unlocked ur bootloader etc. so just scroll down to step 9 and flash the file u need to go from kitkat to lollipop.
The reason why the roms are stuck on the bootanimation is because the bootloader and modem files are updated so it will only give errors and will cause an bootloop if you don't update them. Try it and report back :good:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471
About your ram issue, just try to flash these files and see how it goes as the issue existed I believe when people tried kitkat again when first using lollipop roms so I guess the roms eventually caused a conflict
Thanks for the HELP!!!!

About your ram issue, just try to flash these files and see how it goes as the issue existed I believe when people tried kitkat again when first using lollipop roms so I guess the roms eventually caused a conflict

Well, you could try back to stock via fastboot I suppose right? Like it should flash it out of the box so nothing should go wrong, ofc download properly for 16 or 64gb and don't forget to flash any file :good:

If you've also tried this then I've gotta think what could be it then:silly:

Alcatel OneTouch Flint TWRP

So i was finally able to install TWRP after rooting using this guide from @Casey Campanile
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/alcatel-onetouch-flint-root-t3440088
**You must have ROOT first**
So it is actually pretty simple,
*Download the file i uploaded
*Unzip the TWRP file
*Download FlashFire
Now I did have OEM Unlock in Developer Settings and BusyBox installed when I did this, not sure if it makes a difference.
*Make sure BusyBox is up to date
1. I suggest doing a backup
2. Flash the TWRP file that you unzipped as Firmware Package
3. Done
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO WIPE DEVICE THROUGH THE OPTION IN SETTINGS!!!
P.S. all this is done at your own risk. im not responsible for any bricked devices.
Thanks for the edit suggestions @Casey Campanile

I can't believe no one has thanked you or at least said good going on this.I've had my Flint for about 6 months and used it as a backup mostly.I was sitting at work tonight waiting on the boss and I decided to look up and see if anyone had did anything with the Flint yet.I was floored when I came across your post. Everything is working great with TWRP but if I let it timeout and screen go dark it won't allow me to swipe to unlock.Not a big deal to me but I wanted to report it to you since no one else seems to be commenting on this.I appreciate your hard work and taking the time to do it. Great job!!! ? ??

I've got an issue with TWRP I can't seem to find anything on.Wanted to see if you could help me figure it out.Initially after installing all was well.Made a backup and rebooted.Today,a month later I wanted to do a factory reset and Initially tried via settings/backup/device reset.It just rebooted back to home screen.I then rebooted into TWRP and tried via wipe but nothing will mount.My SD card won't even mount and everything shows all 0's.Any ideas?I'm not a noob by any means but I can't figure this one out.

Hmm, that's seems weird haven't experienced that before. I haven't tried to do a full swipe yet on this phone. Did it complete the wipe?

No it didn't.I couldn't get anything to mount in recovery to complete a wipe.I think perhaps that we should do a warning about trying to wipe from backup/reset in settings.At least until we figure this out.I was finally able to do a reset via Flash fire but nothing will mount in recovery still.

That sounds like a good idea only thing I would try is to try and restore the backup you did and try and reflash TWRP see if that does anything I have yet to try and reset this phone considering its my daily phone currently my lg g3 suffered the fading screen and I couldn't get it fixed

I highly recommend the Honor 5x if youre budget inclined and the Mate 8 if you have a few extra $$.I had the 5x and it actually is a damn nice device.I beat the Nexus 6 in Antutu scores with it.

That's pretty impressive I'm gonna look into that one, one thought just crossed my mind you try flashing your recovery through the fastboot commands on the bootloader?
I tried reflashing every way possible.Still nothing will mount.I think you may want to add a warning to the OP not to try and factory reset via settings.Maybe we can figure it out.
I added it to the OP. Something that might help is when I was digging thru this phone I found out it's the same as the Alcatel pop 3 5.5 looks like they just renamed it
OMG, this has been great. Im all rooted and TWRPd with my Flint now. It is a great feeling, but Im not sure what to do next Are there any benefits to this now? I can't find any custom roms for it...is there a way to get something newer than Android 5.1.1 installed?

No custom ROMs rn but u can install Xposed for lollipop and u can remove bloatware with titanium backup
Cool, so, I'm not clear what Xposed gives me though. Is it worth it?
Hey Xposed has different modules you can install, my favorite are YouTube background play and YouTube ad blocker but they have various ones, just take a look on the downloads section in xposed

Wow, my day is complete. This is great. Going to install soon. Ive been looking for a YouTube ad blocker! :good:
Just wanted to follow up again and say thanks for pointing me to this. I've got the framework installed and now im going through the modules, picking what looks good to me. This is pretty much all I needed I dont care if we never get a custom rom at this point.
Your welcome, there's a lot of modules, I would say just be careful which ones you install and use. Ive had some that gave me problems
CyanogenMod a possibility?
