Hello, i have a little problem here. Everytime i reboot my phone the setting in Display about image quality boost (X-reality) deactivates itselt without a reason.
I had root before but i flashed again the .77 firmware without wipes. Problem is still here, is there any solution than wipe everything?

Could it be that you have stamina mode on?

the firmware must be repaired so you need to wipe and reinstall fresh firmware to repair system features

If you have a backup goto recovery an wipe only system partition. Then go to advanced restore->sytem and restore this system partition. In this case you dont touch you personal data.
If you have no backup you have to do a complete new installation like geeks emire said before.

I reverted back to firmware .77 without recovery and root so no backup. However i found out just now that stamina mode does this and it's not bugged.
Thank you through for the suggestions
You are welcome

Hi,
My first post here on XDA! I have a Generic NL .253 Rom (without root, BL locked) flashed on my Z. I want to downgrade it to version .434 so I can root my phone. The problem is, everytime I try to flash it with flashtool, whenever my phone boots up, I get a message saying it's upgrading NFC, then it suddenly reboots. This happens over and over (kind of like a bootloop). I have tried several .FTF files. Also, I don't want to do a clean flash, I have made several backups but I'm afraid they don't live up to my 'backup'-standards. Does anyone know a fix for this?
Thanks in advance!

Hey, thanks for you reply. Yes, I can. I reflashed my old .253 Generic NL software in between trying other .434 files and it still works fine.
The problem with the .434 is that my phone does boot, but it never properly boots, you know what I mean? It keeps on resetting, and displaying the 'NFC updating' message. Any ideas?

I'm actually having the exact same issue. I would like to downgrade so I can regain root. I have a feeling to fix the boot loop we would have to wipe the phone. I'm just deciding if I want to try that yet as it sucks redoing everything and the phone is running so good.

Yeah exactly, the backup options are fairly limited since I haven't rooted it yet, and I kinda feel there should be a way around this loop
without having to wipe all my data..
i suggest wipe. it should work when downgrading.. i hope it will work on you both as i downgrade my z after updating to .253 and i dont have any bootloop issues...
Which backup do you think is the best? Pc companion/the pre installed 'backup and recovery' app/Carbon/adb full backup? Does any of these guarantee a full backup? I want to be sure before I try..

.434 can be rooted either bin4ry or doomlords method.. and .253 can achieve root using nuts method or wawyed..
So it's possible to root .253 without having rooted before? Did not know that, I will look into that, thanks! This must be new since like today or yesterday, haha

Pre installed backup and recovery works great if you're not rooted. Just make sure to check all boxes to backup. Store backup on computer, wipe, flash, root 253 then restore.

I had exactly the same problem and the only solution was downgrade to .434 with a full wipe!
Everything else I tried ended in restart because of the NFC update.
I could restore my system, because I rooted .434 after the clean install,
updated to .253 from [nut] and restored only the data partition from my last nandroid with recovery.
Then everything was as before and works fine.
But trust me, the only solution is downgrading with a full wipe! :good:
Did you try flash kernel/ otakernel from the .434 with flashtool if not try then
I will skip that update (cannot even get it from Sony PC Companion) so wait for 4.2
I dont use NFC and don't need whitebalance calibration.

Hi,
i just installed LBE privacy guard (on stock 434 FW rooted, unlocked BL). Unfortunately that app decided to go haywire on my phone, sending it into a boot loop.
Stupid enough i didn't make a backup before installing that thing (why would anyone?).
Is there any way to get this thing off the device without razing it completely? I can access TWRP and flash/fastboot.
Use flashtool to reflash a stock 434 ftf. Just don't wipe /data and you shouldn't lose any of your settings/apps. You will have to root again though.

I tried that, reflashing the FTF, however the app was still there and it was still autostarting. But in TWRP i found the advanced>file manager and removed the .apk (good that i had TWRP flashed).

Oh well. Glad you got it sorted.
Just FYI, everywhere I've seen LBE Privacy Guard mentioned there are people complaining that it causes reboot loops on Jelly Bean roms just like you experienced, so I'd give it a miss in future.

Here on XDA there is a translated LBE Security Master. It has some useless stuff but it has still that privacy control.

I had the same problem. delete the apk in the internal memory. look to where you find them. then it boots normally again.

yes. factory reset will erase all your data in internal. But you can save your data in SD card or use PC companion to backup your files or data. Then do a fresh update via PC companion. it will solve your problem.

What I did was, backed up everything using Backup and Restore app in device (most of them forgets this little app) and did a factory reset. It won't wipe the internal storage unless you check the option to format it. So after reset, restore data from B&R app. Plain and Simple

Probably if you Repair via PC Companion you will lose Root so I think there is a problem with the Rom. Try instal it again and wipe everything.

It will be close to impossible as the issue can be an App that causes the problem or can be the System corrupted. Also you are using a Pre-Rooted Rom so repair with PCC can complicate the situation. I don't see at the moment any other solution. Maybe someone who had this problem know how to fix it, if so.

Actually, come to think of it. I do remember having an issue on note 3 once. It was my bosses phone and I rooted it for him and flashed recovery. But recovery wouldn't boot no matter what I did.
What it was- I had chosen a version of twrp I had known to be stable rather than the latest, but it wasn't compatible with that firmware. I ended up flashing the latest and it worked fine. Twrp moved to a new site which should be linked in the thread another poster posted. With the new lollipop firmware you probably need the absolute latest recovery. Good luck with it!

I totally agree.. looks like tmobile patched the hack we do for unlimited tethering, that I used from @jovy23 tutorials... If I delete the tetherprovison.apk the tethering app doesn't work. and with this new Lollipop for some reason the wifitether and FoxFi app aren't working.
I'm just playing with it a bit. but we can always downgrade the bootloader with the actual firmware so that NK4 will work again.
waiting to see if someone else finds a way through this. I might just go back to v4.4.4 Kitkat..
I guess that was the delay with the T-Mobile Note 4 update to lollipop.
Well from what I seen is tmobile like all isp knows what you been doing online. So if they see ya been downloading at sites and ur data is not moving they gonna lock you out lol. The days of free tether are coming to a halt.
