[Q] Mess up the Xperia Arc software that are boot loader locked!!

Can anyone please help us on messing up the xperia arc badly with the software so that we can get a new replacement with an unlocked boot loader ???
Thanks

Don't think that will work. If you are talking about claiming on insurance. They will just flash old phone with new software. I recently posted on the hope I would get a new. Phone. But mine is a genuine claim.... if. Its repairable they will simply repair it as the may or may not do with my phone

Also this should not be in development section. It should be moved....or deleated

Ok it is possible for USA people cause the unlocked bl version of the arc released a month back and at this point if we are able to mess the software that won't be repairable, we may actually get the newer one !!! Pretty sure about that

No. You only have to be able to enter flash mode (green light).

great plan, ask how to commit fraud on a forum dedicated to development of the device you intend to willfully destroy......
Go rub your two braincells together and try to set it on fire....

I think with 3 or 4 threads about this we know enough

i do not see anyone posting this news that was up 2 minutes ago. it shows that the tmobile version will have the same button layout as international.

Because they dont create a thread per thing they find, they use the ones that exists already. If you care to read the existing threads before posting you would know..

Dupe of this thread

Hey Devs

You guys have been doing really good with developing ROMs and all but, how come you guys haven't considered working on Kexec? Considering that is our only current idea for a bootloader bypass.
If any of you guys agree, then post here and share some ideas.

Might be because there is a way to unlock your phones bootloader. Either via Sony's unlock website or through alejandrossimo for $24. But yeah. I think I saw a thread as a wip for kexec.

That dude gave up. Everyone knows it. The devs could get that complete in days, or a week or two. With how talented most of them are, it can be done. The opportunity of Kexec has been there. Why haven't they been working on it?

I think it won't, why?
We can't read/write to the boot partition when booting. And most devs have a unlocked r800i

That's easy to say. I haven't been working on it Cuz i don't care. You seem to care quite a bit. Apparently more so than any of the developers here. So I would suggest learning and doing it yourself.

It doesn't interest me.
No developer could code before they learned how to. And chances are they learned because they wanted to help themselves instead of relying on others.

This needs popcorn.
Just learn it.

Let's not start a flame war, guys. Kexec isn't as necessary for us as it is for Motorola devices because we actually do have a method for unlocking. Sure, for quite a few of us it actually costs money, but we still have a method. If we didn't, someone would have figured out a way around, but since they didn't need to...

Please produce games devs can someone send me a quote for a simple avoid/collect 2D one screen game with local and internet high score table, I will produce the pixel art. No need for optimization if it's difficult.

LOGS from ICS leak

Hi guys,
Could anyone please collect the logs that are being generated by the ICS leak, zip the folders they are in and share them?
I'd do it myself though i don't have the leak installed.
Thanks in advance.
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app

Hm, this is fishy. You only just appeared here (2 posts in total) and already you're asking people to send you their logs? And your request for the AT&T bloat is just weird.
Dunno, fishy.
If you really want some logs, I suggest you install the leak and collect them yourself.

Hi there,
Is there a welcome thread i need to add my first post to?
Nothing fishy going on here. I read about the leak and how it had logs enabled, making the phone crawl. I instantly thought about analyzing these verbose logs to try and pick up where the original dev(s) left off. Logs will help further development of the release.
As for the AT&T files, i want to see if there's anything in them that would explain why the leak was pulled from this site.
Thanks for reading.

Um, actually I don't know. Possibly. More likely to be in the general forum section (not Atrix general, the forum general).

Dunno. Still seems easier to just install the leak and collect the logs yourself. After you're done, you can restore your nandroid backup and it'll be as if nothing ever happened.
Anyway, I'm not running the leak myself so I can't really help you either way. Maybe someone else will be of more help.

There is an introduce yourself thread (or something like that) in the general section of this forum.
Not sure it will do much since it is hard to believe you are not a Motorola/Google/AT&T/Authentec/Whatever employee.

Asking for logs(?)(!)....with no explanation as to why....

I don't think they would post here. They don't need anything they don't already have. If they were to pull strings then i strongly believe it would be through management.

If motorola's devs wasted as much time conjuring theories instead of getting to work then i'd understand the delay. Seriously though... can anyone with the slightest interest in getting a usable and stable realease out of the leak please contact me.

Being honest, open, and explaining yourself would certainly aid cooperation.
PM me if you are more comfortable about that.

What kind of personal information he can take from the logs?

Under usual circumstances you would probably have the logs by now but the situation currently is a tad different.
Don't take it too hard but the latest leak got everyone on edge.
It's nice to see people still care about the device.

I have to say since the leak the readin in just about every thread is getting better and better with all the theories and paranoia. Who needs best selling books xda is so much better

I totally agree, we will get all that info tomorrow by lunch time. Sorry if I sounded mean, but way too many people here are so impatient. I guess that will all be over in about 12-15 hours.

Hoping I can pick mine up today and then I will do what I can to help you guys out!
Not seeing it on http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ yet, unless we can use the HTC One selection, but I will be doing system/boot/data-preload dumps as soon as I can, although I am sure someone will beat me to it.

Yeah, I need to get data backed up before that, just to make sure nothing is wiped out of data as before.
Biggest concern is getting a custom recovery on so I can install superuser.

Hope root isnt far off for everyone. Getting my at&t model tomorrow.

Boo-urns.... I was in a Verizon store at five after one, made a stink with the manager about loosing my unlimited data and left in a huff threatening to leave. I knew I had no chance but it was fun anyways. I'm really close to leaving big red anyways. Rather have control back to use the network I want when I want to with a dev edition.
