M2 from my sister Pattern Blocked!! Help please!! - Sony Xperia M2

Hello !! I'm not much to put posts but... I have a huge problem... The M2 of my sister (in the hands of his little girl) has been blocked... She activated the pattern (her little 3 years old baby), and do not know what pattern is!!!... Also she activated and deactivated ALL, and is no wifi or data enabled... So i cant send an email to my sister Gmail!! I searched how to enter the recovery but it is impossible not to find anything !! How is it possible?? I want ti do a reset and stay factory... But i cant enter to the recovery...
Any little help ?? :angel:
Regards and thanks in advance !! :fingers-crossed:

Try to repair it with Sony PC Companion.

I cant!! PCC say me "need unlocked" or something, if i dont unlock the pattern, i cant connect to sony companion... (awwwwwwggg)

When you enter an incorrect pattern 5 times, you get a Forgot Pattern button where you can use your google password to unlock

Hi!! Yes i know! But i have said in my first post that i have no wifi or data activated! So i cant use the google password. All data is on SD, so i only want to "format" or "wipe data", but i cant enter recovery...

If you just want to format, wouldn't flashing a clean FTF solve it? I suppose you'll have to wait until the battery runs out for it to turn off first, though.

Hey! Sorry but i don't understand you... Frist, whats FTF? (I'm Spanish, so my English level it's only from school )
The battery ended two hours ago and phone its off, but do not understand why you mention it ...
Thanks!

You'll need flashtool and an .ftf file from here (probably customized_ES, since you're Spanish).
Charge the battery, but don't boot the phone.
Put the .ftf file to <where you installed flashtool>\firmwares
Start flashtool, click "Flash", select the ftf you downloaded
It will prepare the files, then ask you to connect phone in flash mode
Hold the volume down key and connect the USB cable (keep holding the volume down key)
The notification LED should light up green and flashtool will start flashing.
Should it not start flashing, then you're probably missing some drivers. The installation package for it is in the flashtool\drivers directory.
edit: I think this should be clear, but doing so will wipe all your data on the phone (not SD)

I have Win7 64bits!! I installed now the flashboot and flashmode drivers, i can see a lot of mobile phones in the install list but M2 not appears, with this installed, i have the same error!
Edit: Ok, i changed the "cable" (i dont know why) and now its flashing!!! After flash, what i need to do?

Use the PC companion. Look for the repair option and that's it. If I'm not mistaken you'll find it on the support zone. Just follow the instructions

Actually, after flashing the ftf you should have a factory reset phone, so no further repairing should be needed.

Okay!!! All its okay now REALLY THANKS!! The only thing is the little baby of my sister bloqued SIM, so i called her operator for PUK and now it's all okey hahahaha
Another time, Really thanks!!! :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Good to hear you were able to fix it. Don't let the baby play with smartphones in the future, there are toys for that

dead bootloader what to do next

I've got a dead bootloader. My device doesn't upgrade thru SD and not with USB. can somebody please help me because i realy don't know what to do. My device is dead for almost 3 weeks now
[edit]
Even my backup on SD doesn't load. And this happend after i downgrade the radio version of the well know greek rom
[/edit]
nobody?
Is there a solution to flash only the bootloader?
I think you need to add some more info, if anyone should have a chance to help. For example what happened when it died - how and why? What happens if you remove the battery cover, replaces it and turns on the device? Text on screen, like USB or Serial? Have you tried uploading ROM from different PCs?
The more info you provide, the more likely it is that someone recognizes your situation from own experience and can provide some help.

You are totaly right.
I have update my frvice with the wrong greek rom and now i have the 15 sec reboot thing.
When I startup my device he ends up the bootloader and the only way to get the device booting to windows is remove the battery cover. But the her reboots again after the 15 seconds.
In the bootloader i tried to load my backup with the SD card but nothing happens. I also tried to load a ROM with MaUpgradeUt_NoID but nothing happens. I only get empty version thing.

If i use the regular MaUpgradeUt and change the file change.bat for the xda3nbftool I get a error "error 201: get device data error".
I also tried to backup my device with the wrong ROM on it, to look at the header but nothing happens (romupdate.exe).
So my conclusion is that my bootloader is dead. Please correct me when i'm wrong but if this is the case how can i correct my bootloader.
When you unplug your Magician from the USB cable, what do you see?
If you see (with the backlight OFF) "Serial v1.00" or similar, thats a WORKING bootloader.
Make sure you have Active Sync DISABLED (right click the taskbar icon, click "Connection Settings..." the uncheck "Available by USB".
You should then plug in the USB cable and it should change to "USB v1.00" or similar.
Your PC may detect the connection as new hardware - that is a good sign that you have Active Sync disabled.
Let the New Hardware Wizard do it's thing, then re-run the upgrade setup and it should work.
If not, you've got BIG problems.
guess I'm in big trouble
The only thing i can do, is trying a different pc without ASync. On the current pc i'm working on, USB in activesync is disabled.
Are there any posibilties to reload (rebuilt, update) Bootloader.
Can somebody please help me.
The bootloader is built in as it's own ROM, and I've never seen a utility that can make it writeable. I doubt you've destroyed your bootloader, but that doesn't help you - sounds like you'll have to bite the bullet, act dumber than you are, and return it to the manufacturer for a repair - and probably pay for the privilege.

But isn't it strange that if you can't destroy it, it doesn't work anymore? And isn't there somebody who had the same problem?
Before you give up, try this:
Try using another USB cable.
I have experimented many times to realise that the upgrading process does require matching with the right cable.
I noticed that in the screenshot you posted, there is no info on what the device will be upgrade to! I could be wrong, but this may well mean that your device is incompatible with the ROM you are trying to upload.
Try downloading another ROM and give it a go. The best thing would be, if you can find one made specifically for your brand, ie Qtek, I-mate or whatever, and DON'T patch it. Just let the original installer do the job...

There isn't a orignal rom fot the dutch T-mobile MDA. And if you use a original installer, it uses ActiveSync. And i can't boot windows because it restarts after 15 seconds so I can't use ActiveSync.
Why can't you use an original ROM updater, if you have the Greek resetting ROM installed? I believe a lot of us has done so without any problems, including me. I don't remember precisely what I did, but it was no problem whatsoever. Most likely I just entered bootloader mode first, to keep the Magician from resetting...

I really tried everything but without any results. I realy don't know why i can't use the original ROM updater.
I have the similar problem, but mine one doesnt even start windows. It always go into the bootloader mode and stays there. I try upgrading it, but it gives me communication errors.
Do this
This is what you do.
Disconnect your JAm from USB
Go from your PC , ACTIVESYNC > FILE > CONNECTION SETTINGS > remove the check mark for ALLOW USB CONNECTION TO THIS DESKTOP COMPUTER
Now connect your JAM to your PC again via USB, this time active sync should not start since you have disabled USB
Now double click on the installer file of the original ROM and you should be good to go
After Reset , enable USB ,
Go from your PC , ACTIVESYNC > FILE > CONNECTION SETTINGS > Put a check mark for ALLOW USB CONNECTION TO THIS DESKTOP COMPUTER
MDA dead
I have tried.... it's not responsing as it should be.

[DEV] KDZ Firmware Update Fix

Problem:
Latest Version of LG Mobile Update prevents uses from updating firmware from kdz files.
Info:
As LG Tools relay on lg webserver to provide application updates and firmware updates it's not possible to just use the old version as it force fully update it self.
Solution:
I used network sniffer(Wireshark) to sniff all the traffic between application and LG Webserver i tracked the important urls and the data coming from LG Webserver. I created all the files with same names and with data from LG Webserver. I changes the LG Mobile Application from 1.5.4.9 to 1.5.4.8. Rest of the files has same data as LG.
How To:
1) Download http://smallsrv.com/

[Q] My PC doesn't recognize the Moto G

Hi folks,
Well... I don't know what is happening with my G. Everytime I connect it via USB, nothing happens, the directory doesn't appear at the explorer. I've been trying to install the drivers and sometimes the PC shows a correct installing, sometimes not.
I don't know what to do. Maybe format the Moto G...
1. Make sure you have good data cable
2. Usb port on your pc/computer is work
3. Install driver for your system.
And last, please make sure you choose the right " USB computer connection " method by going to Settings > Storage > tap on right top menu, select USB Computer Connection.

The USB Ports and the cable are ok. I've already installed drivers via Motorola Device Manager. After selecting USB Computer Connection, I check only the MTP option and nothing happens.
Maybe there is some cause of the problem:

In Device Manager, uninstall the drivers for the XT1033 and replug the phone in. If the problem persists, you can install the drivers manaully, don't use the Windows Update search. Is this the Moto 4G version? Maybe check that the drivers match your device. Last alternative is to root it manually through command window which imo is the best method.

Well, I've already done it.
How do the manual installation work? Is it through the ADB?
No. I don't know if it's a South America's version, but it has 16GB of memory and two sim card slots.
My main doubt is why it's happening, because I transferred files normally before.
How is this last method? What is the command?

(UNLOCKED BL) ROOT Sony Xperia M2 on Android 5.1.1 [FULL-ROOT]

Hello guys!
Today I'm bringing you a tutorial on how to achieve root permissions on the Xperia M2 with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. As of right now, this is only available for UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS, so those with LBL have to wait a little more until I find a suitable solution.
What do we need?
Upgrade your bootloader using this guide.
My ADB pack.
My modded TWRP for unlocked bootloaders.
Ric Disabler by my friend @AleksJ [MIRROR]
The procedure:
First, flash Lollipop if you didn't flash it before. Once done, upgrade your bootloader using Emma or the FTF I linked before.
WARNING: If you updated your bootloader BEFORE FLASHING LOLLIPOP, you MUST upgrade it again since Lollipop FTF overwrites it.
Now, turn on the phone, go to Settings, Info. about the device, and tap 7~8 times the Compilation Number. This will un-hide the developer options. Press back button once and go inside the Dev. Options. Now turn them on if they were off, and enable USB Debbuging. Now turn off your phone.
Now, unzip my ADB Pack 'Herramientas-de-flasheo.zip', which contains basic ADB and Fastboot executables to a folder in your desktop. Also, copy the TWRP Recovery .img you downloaded to that folder.
Put your phone in Fastboot mode, this means, while pressing and holding the Vol+ button, connect the USB cable. Once the Led goes blue, stop pressing it.
Now, execute the following keyboard shortcut (Win+R) and type inside the Run prompt CMD. Inside the Command Prompt, using CD (change directory), navigate to the folder you created in the desktop. It'll be something like...
Code:
cd C:\Users\linuxct\Desktop\adbpack\
Now, execute the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery [COLOR="DarkOrchid"]RECOVERY-TWRP-2.8.7.0-D230X_D240X-UPDATED-THEME[/COLOR].img
Once it finishes, disconnect the USB cable. Now, to enter into the recovery, press and hold the volume down button, and while you're holding it, press and hold the Power button until it vibrates. When you see the BIG Sony logo, stop holding the Vol- Button.
This will load Erikcas TWRP. After few seconds, it'll ask you to allow /system modifications, so slide it to allow modifications. Now navigate to Reboot, and choose System. In a moment or so it'll ask you if you want to root your device. To do that, slide again.
The device will reboot in a few seconds. When it's succesfully booted up, go to the App Drawer and look for 'SuperSU Installer'. Open it and hit the 'Play' button. This will open SuperSU in Google Play. Now update SuperSU.
When it's done updating [Don't open SuperSU yet!], unzip the Ric Disabler from AleksJ in your PC, and open the Install.bat OR Use the following Bash Script if you're on Linux, thanks to @luichi. Once it's opened, connect again your device via USB. In the M2, the script will prompt a question about USB Debbuging key. Tick the 'Remember this PC' checkbox and hit Allow. After some secs, it'll ask you for root permissions, so hit Allow.
In a while, when in CMD it says 'Press any key to continue', disconnect your cable and open SuperSU in your device. Now it'll ask you about updating su binary. Hit Update, and then hit on 'Normal' method.
And that's it! Enjoy your Lollipoped device with Root!
Don't forget to hit the thanks button and thank all people mentioned in this post too!
Thanks for this tutorial! All working

via emma ? can you show how upgrade bootloaders via emma ?
WoW, nice work. Have a fully working recovery AND root now.
If you want something "simpler", you can flash a boot.img with integrated recovery instead of using the first method.

But then you'll need to go back to 5.1.1 kernel in order to boot the device, loosing the recovery. This recovery is permanent as it's isolated in it's own partition.

Guys, you need to install the experimental Xposed for Lollipop 5.1.1! The 4.x installer is not working anymore!
BUT, take this into account:
- Sony seems to have shipped some ROMs with corrupted services.odex (the embedded .dex is invalid). Those ROMs will bootloop with a "Fatal signal 6" or "No pending exception expected: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException" error, which I unfortunately cannot fix.
Click to expand...

@linuxct
I dunno if I flashed back or not, but if i didn't then I think FKernal works with 5.1.1
Don't really want to test it either
Guys dont even try xposed...Bootloop because of corrupted services.odex
Too late... -.-

Restore files problem

Discoverd today that my videocamera map in Quickpic was lost, must be deleted in some way
My OPO is not rooted.
So when Im connecting my OPO to my PC it finds the telephone but not as e:,f:... It find the device name, so Recuva or ohter recoveryprograms wont recognize it.
So I downloaded this https://www.recovery-android.com/oneplus-phone-photo-recovery.html
The problem is when Im going to use this program is that the phone restart itself all the time.
I have read that it is much easier to recover files while OPO is root, but I find to problems:
1. If I root the phone all data will be erased.
2. If I root some programs might overwrite lost data...
Anyone know any other solution to this problem?

What android version are you on??
If it is 6.0.1 then after connecting device to PC you need to go in notification drawer and click on USB options and click on MTP.

Yes, I have to do that the whole time after It has restarted. Is there anyway to choose in the settings to make it do it on auto?

Dont know how to svolve this, because if I unlock the boatloader I must wipe everything. Is it still possible to recovery deleted pictures and videos after an wipe is done with recuva? Isnt a wipe actually the same thing when you format?
I also find this, someone know if this is a safe way to root?

In one plus one, no bootloader unlock zip like tool needed as per above forum thread , because fastboot oem unlock command only unlock OPO. Above thread for bricked phones.
You can store photos, videos and other files in pc, then unlock then transfer all data again to your mobile, for apps use es file explorer and backup your apps as apk filesand transfer them to pc, then restore
Only 3 steps
1.unlock bootloader
2.flash or boot twrp recovery
Flash permanant recovery change
Boot one time recovery change, after boot into system recovery changed again to stock
3. Root with supersu or not.
