So I had an Ativ S Neo on Sprint before moving to the 1520 on ATT.
I was running 8.1 Dev Preview, and hadn't installed Sprint's update yet.
So I went and followed the instructions here: http://www.reddit.com/r/windowsphon...nt_samsung_ativ_s_neo_official_windows_phone/ today in an attempt to get the firmware update.
However Sprint doesn't allow you to download this update unless your phone is activated on their network.
So my question is: does anyone have the 8.1 update available to download so I can just flash that?

If I'm not mistaken, nobody has posted a dump of an signed 8.1 image yet for any device. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Seems legit. Just went to the user's OneDrive, he has everything for flashing the ROM. Maybe the ROM was leaked a while back, but never saw the light of day here.
Here's the OneDrive link for whoever wants to direct instead of messing with reddit.

Pretty sure that is an 8.0 ROM not an 8.1 ROM. If it's the same one that I've used in the past, after loading that ROM, I had to go through about 8 different patch cycles to get up to the latest 8.1 dev preview release.
I pointer for anyone doing this. If you were on 8.1 before this, don't sign into your live account when you do the initial image of this. Just go in as a "guest" and download all of the latest updates to the phone. Then do a reset of the phone from settings and sign in. That way you don't have to deal with tons of apps installing while you are just trying to update the phone. Makes the process _much_ faster.

Link dead. Can someone reupload? Thanks
A friend has an S4 (i9505) from Vodafone Spain (ATL), unlocked and using another operator microSIM (Jazztel). Last week, via OTA, she received the latest update available: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/59777/I9505XXUHOJ4_I9505VFRHOF3_ATL/
After installing that OTA update, the signal level is very low, even none inside buildings, etc. This was not happening before.
In addition, the 2 soft keys (on both sides of the Home button) are not responding anymore, not even lighting up.
The Home button works, so... I think that it's not a hardware problem. Too much coincidence that the update and that hypothetical hardware problem happened at the same time...
First I did was a total hard reset, to factory settings, etc. No success, both problems (signal and soft keys) were still there.
Second, I flashed ROM manually via Odin. I flashed latest PHE one, so no Vodafone bloatware anymore: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/59311/I9505XXUHOJ2_I9505YXXHOJ1_PHE/
No success, still the same. I then did again a hard reset to factory setting, with Wipes first... and nothing.
Next thing I will do (when i have the phone in my hands again) is flashing with Odin the previous PHE one, and crossing fingers: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/48153/I9505XXUHOE3_I9505PHEHOE1_PHE/
Anyone with the same problem? Any solution/suggestion?
Flashed next-to-last Stock ROM for PHE http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/48153/I9505XXUHOE3_I9505PHEHOE1_PHE/ and no success
Then I flashed Base HOH2 (4files+PIT) with Odin and... nothing either.
No idea what to try next. Suggestions?
Same here, after OTA no menu/back buttons (neither backlight or functionality)
Current status:
- seems to affect quite a lot of people, there are more threads like this on various sites
*e.g. here, here, here
- happenning after both OTA or ODIN based update to latest 5.0.1 ROM (for me it was i9505XXUHOJ2)
My findings so far:
- NO rom change seems to fix this
- it seems that touch keys' FW is updated (physically on the chip) along with the update (to version 0x12)
- Touch key FW update in menu *#2663# not applicable as it says that it won't update - versions are the same (you can check the version of driver used by ROM and the actual FW in chip on this page)
NOTE. my girlfriend has the buttons working after successful update and has both in version 0x12
Conclusion:
- It seems that the FW flashing process of the touch keys controllers somehow failed => phone says that it's also ver. 0x12 (same as android driver) but it is probably corrupted
- Re-flashing of the chip could solve the problems, however there are problems with this:
NOTES.
Menu *#2663# won't let us do the flash because of the version check - Can we use ADB to force the update on a rooted phone? Does anybody know how?
There is a slight chance, that it'll be fixed if Samsung will release some newer update which updates also the keys' FW
Samsung could release a fix, that will flash this manually as a lot of people have problem with this
!EDIT:
I've found very similar problem + solution on the Vietnamese forum bellow (don't use the files as it's for different phone!):
- to sum it up - force downgrading the FW, the update again... (any ROM cook that could help?)
see here
regards,
J.
I completely agree with you. I also tried the *#2663# path, the phone also has 0x12 touch keys FW, and it doesn't let me reflash it, either. Don't know what FW was there before the OTA update.
I have been told about the first German 5.0.1 stock ROM: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/44821/I9505XXUHOB7_I9505OXAHOB7_DBT/ and also about the last 4.4.2 one: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/40046/I9505XXUGNK4_I9505OXAGNK4_DBT/
Maybe one of those... makes something again on the Touch Keys FW?
I couldn't try anymore bcs I gave the phone back to my friend (with accesibility touch keys on-screen)
HI, have you found a solution? My Italian S4 suffered the same bug after the same upgrade. I tried to contact samsung and they said I need to replace the screen because upgrading the firmware put the electronic under stress and they got broken. I don't believe them because too many people have the same problem + my screen is two days old! Please help me!
Same problem for my S4! how we can flash/reflash/downgrade soft touch fw?
Has anyone tried the first first German 5.0.1 stock ROM: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/d...05OXAHOB7_DBT/ or the last 4.4.2 one: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/d...05OXAGNK4_DBT/ ?
A friend of mine (another one) told me that he fixed it with German HOA7 one, and then updated again to latest with no problem: https://mega.nz/#!VwcgXSQC!uGAhPxEuRrl-luS3sw8JmoPnjP4ybxrlsY4XcfFaWKE
I can't try it myself bcs I gave back the S4 to the owner. If anyone tries, please leave here the results!

I've tried a lot of ROMs - 4.4.2, also older 5.0.1 with no result...
I haven't tried UHOA7 I've tried UHOB7 instead, so I'll probably give it the shot, but I can't imagine how it could fix this issue (maybe if it for some reason has the touch-cypress FW update forced...)
- I've seen that on some German forums reverting back helped, but it wasn't my case (+it didn't fix the problem for many others...)
As I've wrote before, they've created modified kernel (with forced touch key FW reflash - bypassed version check) for a little bit different phone on the Vietnamese forum (see the link in my previous post) and it seems that it would be quite easy for somebody who has some knowledge with kernel compilation... (it would just need small modification in the "if" condition of 1 kernel source file) I've tried to do some research, but it takes some time to understand the process of building the kernel and to figure out how to properly pack it again... Also the sources are a little bit different for i9505.

No idea, another friend of mine (different than the one who gave me her "broken" i9505 for fixing), who had the same problem with his own i9505 told me that with the I9505XXUHOA7_OXAHOA7 he fixed it. And sent me the Mega link, as it's not on SamMobile (or I didn't find it): https://mega.nz/#!VwcgXSQC!uGAhPxEuRrl-luS3sw8JmoPnjP4ybxrlsY4XcfFaWKE
I couldn't try it by myself, because I gave back the "broken" i9505 I was trying to fix to her owner before I was told about HOA7.
U know a lot more about this than me. Maybe you can give a try to that HOA7 Mega link, and see if it really works, or if my friend was extremely extremely lucky, and still doesn't know it (and ofc, doesn't know what the hell fixed his phone, and how).
Anyway, if u decide to give a try to the I9505XXUHOA7_OXAHOA7 one, don't forget to come back to tell us if it worked or... nothing. I keep fingers crossed!!!
Oh, and ofc: THANK YOU!!!

I got the problem but only the back button was not working. Did factory reset and it did not help.
Then i flashed I9505XXUHOA7_OXAHOA7 from your link with Odin 3.10 and YES!!! i can confirm it is working again So happy now.
It is my Moms Phone now and she loves it!!. I was unly helping her doing the OTA so she realy hated me and SAM for F****** up her phone.
This tread realy saved my ass
Can confirm this is happening to me as well. All firmwares starting from HOF2 seem to have this problem so if you encounter this, downgrading to a HOE/HOD firmware should correct this bug. The downside is that without a proper fix, you won't be able to update.

@kosmodisk, did u read that? have u tried I9505XXUHOA7_OXAHOA7 by urself? Ur conclusions?
@BUBA0071:
- Did u look before (and after) flashing HOA7 which FW had (and have now) the touch keys? Remember: *#2663#
- After flashing HOA7, did u update again to latest one? Did the update work well this time, and now u have latest version with touch leys working?

HOE3 works for me. Problems start from HOF onwards.
I have also tried flashing HOA7 DBT and upgrading. Problem persists. My touchkey firmware is 0x1a and won't update no matter what Firmware package I tried. Up to now i have tried: GNG2, GNI2, GNK4, HOA7, HOB7, HOD7.
I'm pretty sure a rom (custom or early kitkat/lollipop leaks) caused this, altough I never flashed the initial chinese leak.

The phone that that girl gave to me, for fixing... was completely in official status. Always official ROMs, and official OTA updates, from first minute. And the problem was caused by latest official OTA update available: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/59777/I9505XXUHOJ4_I9505VFRHOF3_ATL/
So the problem was not caused by any custom ROM or a not official one.

Hardware key firmware 0X12 parth 0X1a (when it was not working, dont know if it have changed after german firmware flash). I have not updated again, think my CSC is blocking. It stayed on NEE after update to German firmware.
It was NEE I9505XXUPOJ2 firmware that F***** up my Phone

unfortunately I've tried I9505XXUHOA7_OXAHOA7 with no luck (even with repartition when flashing) - the buttons still don't respond
BUBA0071, I'd like to ask which custom ROM have you tried? It seems that your keys have FW of version 0x1a which should be newer than 0x12, so this could lead to some sollution. Was it some cyanogen mod or MIUI?
thx

Wups it have been some time since it was custum, but in any cace it must have been some of the first lollipop roms. I gave to my mom 13 feb 2015 and i did a lot of flashing before that, i think one of the roms i tryed was Project Chaos. but also i tryed all the google editition roms for i9505 and cyanogen.
but when it whent back to stock it i used PDA I9505XXUHOD7 CSC I9505NEEHOD2 NEE firmware
I've got a question. When you flash the HOA7 file from the Mega link, do you use only the AP file, or you use AP,BL,CP, CSC and PIT files?
I'm gonna try to fix my S4 but i'm not sure about the right process I should follow.
Thank you!

Hey Bro.
I running android 6.0 beta but no new update for me ...
How update tu android 6.01
Just came to my phone as well. Downloading it now.
It would be great if someone could upload the rom if a dev could somehow use it to distribute it to the rest or maybe a system dump
It works, with a small starting issue.
Edge features are great. News (Yahoo only, can't seem to be able to change it) people, tasks, frequently used apps, stocks, tools (compass, ruler, flashlight), Twitter feed, sports scores (again Yahoo) Internet bookmarks etc.
Most everything can be customized and changed to suit your needs. One useful feature is locations and what you want the phone to do when you reach that location. I set mine to turn off wifi and BT and put it in vibrate when I reach work. I know, these things have been around for a long time but it's nice to have them in the Edge screen.
After the update was applied I was stuck on 2G for a while. Turning mobile networks off/on, swapping APNs and turning on/off roaming didn't help. I then opted to go for Automatic 3G/2G in network selection, which got me on 3G, then I switched back to Automatic LTE/3G/2G which got me back on LTE. I did not reboot, which may have fixed the issue. Just a headsup... I'm on ATT.
Smart Manager is now in Settings.
Not sure of other features... will dig some more, and of course test the battery life.
Had the 2G issue but rebooted it updated all fine.
Loving the edge features glad to see Samsung wake up and really introduce a killer feature. Now they need to keep up support, add even more cards and advertise the feature. Location feature is cool as is the compass although needs a calibration at each use.
Agenda card is awesome everything for the day and one click brings up the details.
Contact tab finally a direct call option plus lots of other options.
Only about 350MB download. OTA, its an awesome update 6.0.1 and January security patch.
is the lag still present any where on the UIs animations ?
Got the update zip for my 925F from the "/data/fota" folder.
Here is the link to the update: MEGA
Also I've managed to get the new sboot from the zip and pack it with the Tar-tool to the tar.md5 file in case it's needed for rooting.
Here is the link to the new bootloader: MEGA
Edit: changed the bootloader tar.md5, somehow md5 did not match on previous one. Sorry about that.
Link to the new one: MEGA
Battery notably better with heavy use, playing with app most the day.
I don't notice the lag but then I turn animations right down

If you mean the new bootloader, flash it with BL button.
As for the update.zip, it's not for the Odin but for the stock recovery.

i guess you may want to place the .zip file in data/fota folder and then try restarting phone, restarting into stock recovery or restarting to upload mode for SW updates.

Hi, I assume someone much smarter than me will be able to point me to a Sony Xperia standard/stock ROM which I can flash with TWRP.
I had loaded TWRP and manages to accidentally wipe out the system with no backup (it's a new phone anyway). I found some ROMS from European telcos, etc. but would like to install the "standard" Sony Xperia ROM for XC.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
PS. I think it would be easiest for me to able to install it through TWRP.... but obviously, anyway to recover my phone would be great.
PPS. Still can access device with adb and Flashtool, but not from Fastboot or Sony PC Companion.
PPS. I have installed OmniROM in the meantime... but don't want to spend too much time on it if I am going to wipe it out anyway.
PPS. I am in the US.
Update:
I found XperiaFirmware. It's downloading F5321_34.1.A.3.49_CE.ftf. Per the download website, will take about 18 hours on average, but it is progressing better than that.
I also found XperiFirm tool which downloads much faster, but I don't know which version. My understanding is that US customized is for CDA version of the phone. I also ran across the post about enabling the fingerprint reader by downloading the UK customized version... But based on latest attempts to do this, since UK version has been upgraded to Nougat, this approach is not working anymore...? But anyway, I could give it a shot to try a European version which is still on MM,
Update: *Whew*
I used XperiFirm to select a ROM. I didn't know which ROM, but I was intrigued to enable the fingerprint scanner. Due to some recent posts that the original method of using the Customized UK (or as they would say "Customised UK") version no longer works as the posted firmware was for Nougat. As a workaround, some people downloaded CE version, but CE version has also been recently updated to Nougat. I noticed a CE5 version which still seemed to be the MM version.
However, I also wasn't sure what differences I may see in the European version as some posters were complaining about some cosmetic differences, so I downloaded Customized US even though I thought I read somewhere it was for CDMA network. I also decided to download one called "Commercial and Journalists" which was the same MM version.
I decided to install it first as I was anxious about trying to get my phone back. I was able to load OmniROM but since there were some known issues, my preference was to use authentic Sony firmware. In addition, I took some low light pictures with the OmniROM version, and they turned out really bad. Not sure if it was the ROM or what, but it was very disappointing. Also, I couldn't get root access to it. Also, even though OmniROM seemed to support the fingerprint scanner, I couldn't get it to register my fingerprint well.
I downloaded the Commercial and Journalists version from XperiFirm, let it unpack it, and then used FlashTool to create the bundle, not including fwinfo.xml or the .ta files.
It started up Android ok, but I noticed I seemed to have lost my TWRP. Anyway, while starting up Android, guess what? The fingerprint enabled software was there... and it works like a champ!
Since I seemed to have lost TWRP, I started from instructions again from http://www.stupdroid.com/2016/10/root-sony-xperia-x-compact.html and was able to get it back.
Then, I tried to get root, but following the instructions, I got the error ""There is no su binary installed" when opening SuperSU.
I then flashed UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip from https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
And now I have root access!
Whew! I don't know what damage I've done overall... and since I don't have a nano SIM card yet, the worst case scenario is that what I have now doesn't work as a phone (but I doubt it). After what I went through (accidentally deleting the system from my Android phone), I now have a rooted Xperia X Compact with the fingerprint sensor enabled. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good?
And, when I took some low light pics, they turned out better!
Hi Bro,
i need a help can you please give me the web link to download UK customized ftf or CE customized ftf. please its almost a month with xperia x compact but no fingerprint working. im unable to download it with my system its very old configuration. i badly want fingerprint working on my phone. can you please upload somewhere so that i can download and flash it directly, please....
Sorry for my bad english. Thanks in advance..

Hi, I have a Ticwatch Pro 4G/LTE (Catshark) [USA]. Do you know if it is possible to flash the EU stock firmware? I find so many comments here in the blog but, after a long research, seems I didn't fine a final answer to that
Can someone highlight me if was able to do the "conversion". For sure EU firmware seems is still getting updated, while US one no
Thank you!

Its not possible, I tried. Did you get the custom rom to boot on the your Ticwatch? I have the same one and I seem to not get it to boot without flashing the stock kernel! Any info is mush appreciated!

I don't mean to say you are wrong but to share my experience. September of 2021 I got a TicWatch Pro 4G (catshark) and I live in the US. Brand new, but I can not tell you what firmware it came with. I flashed the U.S.A rom the moment the battery got to 50%, lol. I had nothing but issues. I flashed everything over and over. I think I could win a TickWatch setup Speedrun by now, I should summit my time. I made a bash script to automate the whole flashing process because I was tired of it.
I was out of ideas. I said "F it" nothing left to flash but the EU version. To my surprise it works perfectly, even data with Verizon, text, everything works for me, even Majisk. Flash Magisk 20.4 and you can install some modules. It's all kinda pointless on a watch though
I know the question is old by now but maybe it will help someone out just getting a TicWatch.

Can you post screenshots of such a setup please? I have posted several screenshots of my setup in other post and I can tell you that I believe there is no way that the EU rom will work on US Verizon. So please, post screenshots of rom build version and working Verizon signal, if you don't mind! I'm sure I'm not the only one that doubts such a working setup! Thank you!

Network State says "Disconnected" not sure what that's about but Verizon works as it should. Phone number is there, I purposely didn't show the whole number. I couldn't tell the EU version from the US by looking at firmware version but It's the Rom labeled "EU" is all I know.
I flash it manually with a rooted Note 10 if that makes any difference. Never connected the watch to a pc. I
Why is everyone so quiet now? You were not expecting screenshots?......I'm joking. Is that even the EU Rom? I honestly can't tell. It's from the EU Mega Folder posted here.
