Have you tried the latest release of the ROM
I have that problem on an older version of the ROM, but you do not need to hard reset - it takes a few boot attempts, but removing the battery and rebooting and pressing reset and rebooting after a while it does load back into the ROM
Let me know if this problem is in the latest release or an older one as I intend on upgrading to the newest to see if the problem is gone

Yea well I only got the freeze inside of windows a couple times, but I get the welcome screen hang every reboot
Might flash to the new ROM using MTTY and see what happens
BTW - there is a MTTY that does not require all the stupid code this and code that and USB drivers bla bla--- it just runs right from windows and takes one flash using the romupdate utility to complete
just make sure the new rom is sitting on the storage card ready for the new flash as the phone will just stop at the splash boot screen as it now has no OS on it

MEMO
I've been using the Memo Memory and Graphic Tweaked Rom for a few months now. Now using Memo 2.6.2, which works great. There's also been great feedback on bugs through the forum, which have all been removed.
Memo: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649841
And the fast-MTTY (which is called Task 29, the formatting task) also works fine for me, you can find all info in this thread:

Hi before you plan to cook xda ROM . I will recommend you to try out Hong Kong Official ROM, I tried out a lot and compare different Official ROM here is the result :
The PROS that found in the ROM :
1st - Guaranty fast and stable official ROM compare to sea, O2 and also UK ROM
2nd - Receive GPS signal quickly compare to the other ROM
3rd - If u tried SEA ROM u may found out the weather unable to update frequently
4th - Google Maps Integrated inside the ROM .. which SEA ROM dont have
5th - If you using Chinese words then it is too bad for SEA and other country ROM no integrated so you need to install CE-Star inside .
This is why I recommend u Hong Kong Chinese ROM as it comes with Chinese program . You dunned to install!!
The CONS that found in Hong Kong ROM that is :
1) No WINRAR
2) It would be hard for those people who cant read in Chinese. Although I not really like Chinese ROM but after I tried it . I really satisfy with the ROM .
Give It a Try Download Different Official ROM from Touch Diamond From Various Country Website you will notify which 1 suit you the best.
You may consider the above options that I given and try it =) you may saw a huge differences.
Lastly , I wont recommend some of the ROM that posted in xda
1st - Drain battery tremendously , dry your battery life even faster than official ROM
2nd - Very lag + not as good as what your expectation, cannot reach what you wants sometimes or even worse design
3rd - 3G Video Call not Function In Certain ROM as they want to the ROM even LITE smooth and faster
HONG KONG LATEST OFFICIAL ROM - RUU_Diamond_HKCSL_CHT_2.03.832.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.44.25.24_1.08.25.20M1_Ship

WiFi Issue in Certain Countries

Hello
I'm new here so they wouldn't allow me to post on the Dev section, anyways, I bought my Xperia S with Android GB in it and it has been with me for a while so i keep updating it. I installed the last software Sony has (JB .96) before i started flashing custom ROMs, however, i noticed that the WiFI stopped working in all the JB versions (.200, .211, .96) and when i did some research i found that Sony has activated its restriction program on some countries these are Sudan, Iran and Syria, as far as i know. me, i'm from Sudan, i figured that the the device shuts down the wifi ONLY when it detects the SIM card, as when i try to remove the SIM of turn on AirPlane mode (then restart the Device to start on AirPlane mode) the wifi works just fine.
when the wifi is locked, i can still turn it on, but the device starts to get very slow and it keeps searching for networks forever, and when i turn it of it take a loooong time to do so. installing custom ROMs did not fix this problem as most of the ROMs are based on the JB builds. i tried other solutions like trying to change the country code and so, but still, no luck. i might have tried lots of things here but frankly i'm not a developer, but i succeed to flash ROMs and Kernels by following your instruction, which u do very well on it .
I though that you guys did not encounter this issue before because you are not is a in a country that is under "US sanction" , but i'm sure you would have fixed this problem if you have heard of it
sorry for the loooong post hehe.
just one last thing, I LOOOOOVE what you guys are doing and i really do appreciate it, i WANT to donate but, there we (guys from Sudan)
can't create a PayPal account or so, again "US sanction".

Can,t u just flash for example PureSlim KitKat rom? Im using it now, it's working 100% fine and much faster than JB or any modded JB. Im 100% there will not be any wifi restrictions here.

I'm from Sudan too and I'm facing the same problem as @BMBcin I've tried Zillions of ROM's to solve the problem (I don't know about the restriction thing but putting the phone in flight mode didn't help either , my friend have Xperia Z and WiFi is working fine for him ) if someone come up with a solution please post it here

There are a number of threads here asking the same question. I'm on 4.1.2 and would like to get the UK 4.2.1. There are a couple of threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446155 This one appears to have a ROM developed that works, but the download site doesn't let you download any more.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2372451 Again someone seems to have reported creating a ROM, but no links.
I'd like to keep pushing to see if someone has got something working.

I'm in the same situation as you my friend every couple of days i go thru to see if someone came up with a rom for the sgh-i467m but its like every developer quit trying

Flashing things to SM-T705Y

Hi Guys,
I have a T705Y. Was wondering whether I have to flash stuff specific to the Y version (of which there doesn't appear to be much) or whether I can flash T705 stuff to it as well.
I did a quick search and couldn't find anything. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
D.S

Where did you get this one from? I'm not sure about flashing stuff on it because most roms and kernels are for the 705. Not sure if the 705 is compatible to the 700y. Is this also a Snapdragon or exynos?

A carrier in Australia are giving them out in a bundle at the moment, my Nexus 7 just happened to break so it seemed to work out.
No idea if it's Exynos or Snapdragon, haven't looked that far into it yet. Was simply asking the question in the hopes that somebody had a quick answer.
It's not a big deal. Some more searching suggests that CF-AutoRoot works, which would probably be enough for me to be able to uninstall / freeze a lot of the chaff on the device.
Thanks

NZ and AU has same which is a Y and it's exynos...

I just got a new australian model sm- t705y. Has anyone flashed the taiwanese lollipop rom to it yet? Does it run good? Should i root before or after? I'm a newbie, thanks, Pet

Edit
I flashed the taiwanese lollipop rom with odin 3.09, it works beautiful, didn't need factory reset after, but it is specifically for the "y"-version of the sm-705. I am facing the same problem, don't know what the "y" means, except that it adds a certain bandwith for Australian 4G. I don't know if i can use stuff for normal sm- 705 or if that would cause problems. I will repost after trying, might take a while as i want to do a full backup first. If anyone has any clues regarding this issue i too would be very happy and

I too would be very very very interested in knowing this. Can't find any info on it other than a "maybe" from the Iron ROM creator.
The main reason I want it is because the Xposed framework doesn't work with current stock Samsung ROMs, yet there are no custom ROMs for the T705Y..
Has anyone taken the plunge and tried a custom T705 ROM on a T705Y??
FYI the T705Y is the Australian variant with 4G 700MHz band 28 for Aussie 4G. It has the Exynos 5 Octa 5420 (Adonis?)
..tempted to buy one with a broken screen just to try it but I don't have the money at the moment.

Sorry if double posting isn't allowed but just an update - I've tried deodexing so I can install Xposed but no luck - have gone through all the walkthroughs and troubleshooting I can find and after about 8 hrs total I've given up. I'll post back here if I get the balls to flash a T705 ROM or if I find a T705Y ROM that will allow Xposed.

Why do you need balls? It's a simple case of making a backup with twrp first which is reiterated on this forum about a million times then just flash away.

As I understand it there is still a risk of a hard brick which means you can't get back into TWRP, unless I'm mistaken?

used to have the T705 a long time back...went to the S2 T715...left that...got a great deal on T705Y practically new was sealed but sometimes wonder about those seals...anyway manufactured just in June this year...runs much better than T705 used to and guessing it is all software (has to be)..has 5.0.2 now (back then like a year back 4Q 2014 was kitkat and a horrible keyboard back then)...
checked that there is a s/w update of 212MB available not sure what that is for
in terms of the Y version...see the Sm-T235...I have that too (and had the Y version of that briefly...the Y version (also Taiwan) for the T235 there is identical to the non-Y version except for some LTE bands...same roms, recovery etc...can check the xda board tab 4 7.0..this is the LTE 235 I am referring to (now 230/231/237 differ) but Sm-t235 and 235y are basically identical. So here too, I think some frequencies are different (enabled bands but otherwise same)
by analogy I am pretty certain the 705 and 705Y have similar degree of similarity and differences like the 235 and 235y...if one can say that..just some bands on lte (235 has the 850, the 235Y has the 700 frequency for example)

Thanks ashyx but I am wanting to flash a custom ROM not stock, and for a slightly different model number. FWIW among other reasons I'm needing Xposed to turn off the magnet screen off feature which is sometimes triggered by my magnetic car cradle.
I think mac has answered my question will and confirmed what I suspected.
Thank you mac for sharing your experience :good:

Well just to let you know I have flashed countless custom roms on my t805. For quite a while I was using a custom t805y rom which ran very well with no issues. I also think there is a t705y version
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3127127
I now use PhoeniX ROM.
Pretty much any rom can run on these devices regardless of region.
The only thing is you may need to restore or flash the boot.img and modem for your particular device if you encounter issues.
I have only ever had to restore the modem.

Well i flashed t705 recovery yesterday and chaimsaw
Latest su2.62 that also works on t235 5.1.1...xposed running too

I have tried flashing SM-T705 rom onto my 705y model and it seems to work just fine. I used Odin to flash twrp then used twrp to install Lineage os 14.1 and the gapps ARM 7.1 FULL (a thread said only full version seems to work without errors I have not checked it).

Mi A2 lite keeps losing signal

Hi guys. I need your help
I bought this phone a year ago. It works fine at first, but then I'm not sure since when, the phone keeps losing signal and says "No service".
Network is up again when I restart the phone, but if I leave it for a while, it loses the signal and nobody can call me.
Is there anyway to solve this problem?

which version are you using, if it is A10 i have to say that is a bug not solved by the lazy xiaomi's devs
Best solution is to change to custom rom or return to android pie or oreo
