Hello guys.
I was screwing around with system files on my rooted Xperia Arc S.
I used ROM Toolbox to set the LCD density to 340.
It asked me to reboot my device so I did.
When my phone turned back on, everything was zoomed in.
I can't see my slider, I can't pull down notifications, I cant do anything.
PLEASE HELP!!! I'm really desperate.
I tried rebooting phone,turning it off, removing MicroSD...
:crying::crying::crying:
You must flash stock rom via flashtool. Everything is already on xda you have to search

I'm using a Mac and my boot loader is still locked because I couldn't find anything for Mac.
Please help!!!
You should be able to log into your phone by pressing settings on your SystemUI assuming you have no security option set. Try that and see if you can navigate to ROM toolbox to change the LCD density.
The best remedy is to flash a build.prop to fix the LCD density back to 240.
EDIT: Just noticed you cant pull down the notification bar. Flashing a build.prop is the way to go then.

Can you give me more specific info on how to flash the build.prop onto my phone?
I'm currently using a Mac so not many options are available.
Thanks for your help

First of all doesnt Sony have software for Mac called bridge or something like that?
Before you read anything below try this to unlock your phone; have someone call you and while the phone is ringing press the home button. Maybe you can then navigate to settings to temporarily disable security and to ROM toolbox to fix your LCD density.
Anyway regardless to get a build.prop you're gonna need to ask someone to extract their build.prop, put it in a flashable zip and send you a link to download so you can flash it via CWM. I'm currently not at a computer and I have an LT15a so idk if you'd like your phone to be recognized as a north American phone. What region are you from btw?

My SIM card has a lock on it so I can't even dial myself. FML.
I'm from Singapore.
Ok.
First try installing this on your mac and see if you can either repair or update your phone with it.

If not we're gonna need to get a build.prop from an lt18i. You have CWM on your phone right?

I'll try bridge then let you know.
However, my phone is rooted but has a locked bootloader,so I can't really flash anything.
I know you probably think I'm a dumb **** and I think so too.

If u are rooted, use Droid manager. i found it around XDA is a pc program that let you explore your phone so u can go into system, take out the build prop, and edit the LCD density

Sorry for the late resopnce. Still need help
Hello users I have recently bought a new T-Mobile LG Optimus F6.
For those of you who may have just purchased one or need one rooted and or unlocked here is how to do it.
Root:
Download MotoChopper.zip that is attatched at the bottom.
Then place your phone in Debugging mode. Also check unknown sources in security.
Unzip the MotoChopper and look for "run.bat"
Once that is all done you should have root access.
Unlock:
I use Blowfish Unlocks. You can use who ever you prefer.
Dial *#06# and that will be your IMEI number.
Next submit for the code and wait.
When it comes back use: SIM_UNLOCK=00000000000000
Now to enter the code you have to put in a non supported sim and dial 2945#*500#
Then choose Network Unlock and enter your code. If the first code doesnt work do not panic.
You have 10 attempts and you usually get back 5 different codes. Try them until one works. But to be sure double check that you submitted the right IMEI to begin with.
Enjoy
works
Although lacking some instruction. You must have lg support software on PC and drivers installed (Google)

Correct... here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2210213
What I did after root: Uninstalled all the bloatware... added beats audio, and wifi tether...
Pretty cool phone... I sure do miss my HTC one S
I already sold mine but it was very good. The battery life on it was great. But I moved on to the Note 2 Tmo and hopefully I can sell the Note 2 and get the Note 3

Question about the rooting
Is the rooting all that is needed to enable tethering without the paying of an additional fee to T-Mobile? Basically being held hostage....... and will the phone be capable of OS updating in the future?

Do you or anyone know how to un-root the phone aftter running the motochopper? I've been looking everyone on the web and cannot find this. I'm worried in case there is ever a hardware issue that we need to unroot to get serviced.

what's the difference T-mobile v MetroPCS
Metro sold me the F6 based on the fact it works on the T-mobile networks LTE. However, I am having a hard time living with an unrooted phone so I'm hoping to use motochopper to root. But someone said it will not work. Is there really that much difference between those sold by T-mobile and those from Metro?
I "upgraded" from a Motion to have bigger screen, and now I find out that may have actually been a step down? WTF!?
All I want to do is unbloat and get rid of "insufficient storage" errors. Shouldn't be so tedious!

You can root with the vroot method.
There's some questions about what it does exactly but it does work. I should point out that the program and its cousin program are under community investigation due to possibly shady dealings with pulling and pushing files. Its cousin program (kango or something) Has been shown to pull imeid off phones and apparently send them, unencrypted, to a Chinese server.... but it's the only thing I've found to be a proven working root.
Can't unlock boot loader so no custom roms but you can debloat.
I've discovered that both my l9 and my f6 hold onto the storage allotment for moved downloads...
Not sure if you get my drift...
If you download a file to internal and move it to sd it still shows up in "downloads" when you check the storage in your settings.
To solve it open settings/storage/unmount sd and then open downloads under internal storage and delete files you know you moved.

With this "vroot", would it be safe to root while disconnected from networks to prevent unauthorized sharing of imei?
I thought of trying that myself but never got around to it.

OK so in trying to fix my WiFi problems on my mytouch 4g I ran the fastboot OEM erasewififlash command and it through my phone into qhusb_dload mode. My windows 8/ubuntu13.04 dualboot laptop recognises it as qhusb_dload and windows 8 even found and installed the correct drivers for it. So my question is. Is there any way to reflash through it since it recognises drivers for it etc.

I couldn't get mine unbricked, but I completely borked my internal flash (had the bad chip). There are ways to try and revive it. If you can manage to get it to boot to bootloader. it'll be an easy PG15MG flash. There are some tools on this site to flash through the qhusb. You may have to modify the DHD versison of the tools. Sorry I can find the links quick but just do a forum or google search for the tools. They should be easy enough to find.

Hi! First of all, all in one tools are not necessary to flash custom rom/kernel on your phone (you can do it without them)... Let's start: to get a token, you have to register to htcdev.com, then there is a nice guide on their site taking you by hand to the end of the process...
You have to be sure to have the drivers installed on your laptop to get everything working, and to do that you can install htc sync and remove it (it will leave drivers inside the pc)... Moreover: be sure fastboot can see your device; boot it into bootloader and plug it into pc (on device's display it should appear "fastboot usb"), open a cmd Shell, go to fastboot folder and type "fastboot devices"; if list is empty you have to install fastboot drivers...
After you follow this guide and you unlock your bootloader, you can flash a custom recovery and a custom rom, but we'll talk about it after you unlock the bootloader let me know when you are ready

Open a command prompt and navigate to that folder or enter the folder you unpacked and then press shift+right click and Open a prompt from the contextual menu... To install drivers go to device manager when phone is in fastboot mode and plugged into pc and install from there...
Edit: it should work or at least drivers won't install, but if you want to feel safe search a fastboot folder/drivers in your phone's dedicated forum as Rohin said... I use that fastboot folder for both my hox and m8 anyway...
