[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TheSlipperMan:
I recently purchased this phone and I am moving from a Nexus S, which had auto brightness however I can't seem to find it in the options of the Xperia, I did remove a few apps when I got it so I just wondered if anyone could confirm if the phone has the feature or not?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] electrash:
Yes it has, but you cant confiqure this by your self without root and some mods.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TheSlipperMan:
Thanks for the prompt reply, I'm going to hold off rooting until I get my unlock code from my network.

I used "Quick Settings" to turn off auto brightness but it's good to know it can be turned off without installing anything
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] electrash:
Using xperia arc over 6 months so trust me, it work very well. I will explain to you via PM when i get to PC
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] RiotRick:
Just tested the auto brightness in bright sunlight. It is working fine. Put my hand over the sensor and the screen got darker. Removed it an the screen got brighter again.

The brightness changes are very slow though. It takes the phone a few seconds to adjust. Which actually is pretty nice since you don't get abrupt changes.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rashkae:
Correct, that's the design. :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gentorsic:
would you please suggest an application concept that i can propose for my thesis? im really having a hard time thinking on what app to make. really need your help! Thanks in advance
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StevetotheH:
You should build a phone "protection" app that when set face down it arms itself. Any movement triggers a listen feature where you have to speak your password. Password would be accepted by two vibrations from phone. If no vibes then phone stays armed and you know not to touch it. Here's where things get 4.0. The headphone jack has a device plugged in that ties into the battery cover with open wires on it. The device is com prized of a wave rectifier, a capacitor, a relay and the "open wires" running down the back of the phone. Pick up the armed phone, triggers sound, wave rectifier makes it useable for relay, relay releases voltage from capacitor. You could warm the wires to get them to sit flush on bat. cover. Everything but a good relay can be found at Radio Shack. Capacitors can be acquired from Walmart photo department in the form of disposable camera, free if you ask nice. If you build the app. I will draw schematics for device.

Hi,

Is this a known issue on Android 4.03 Official?

I can't uninstall an app, because I can't disable its administrator privileges. These settings are gone after applying the FOTA! :mad:
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Not noticed it but I did a factory reset after getting the update
[HTC Sensation] Dmitry N:
Thanks. I didn't. Interesting. Can anyone else confirm/reject this please?
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
Nope, i can just remove apps and everything. Didn't do a factory reset after OTA update.
[HTC Sensation] Dmitry N:
But do you see the "Device Administrator" settings?

You mind trying to install this app (SwitchPro Widget) and then uninstall it? ;)
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
i see the device administrator settings. Can't install the app because it's a paid app and i don't own a creditcard ;)
[HTC Sensation] Dmitry N:
Factory reset was the solution indeed!
[HTC Sensation] akafarmer:
Where's My Droid is the problem

I noticed after installing Where's My Droid and granting it Device Administration privileges, the option itself disappeared from the Security menu of my phone, along with Unknown Sources option. WTF - I reset my phone over a dozen times (literally) before I realized what caused it to keep disappearing. There's no telling how many apps out there that might cause these options to disappear after being added as a Device Administrator. So please, test my conclusion...reset your phone and if the options reappear, try installing the app that caused the options to disappear (most likely a security app or phone locator app) then grant it Device Admin again and see what happens. If I'm right, please hit the thank you button. Peace!!
[HTC Sensation] rkafka:
I don't see this menu even I did factory reset+wipe data in stock recovery :( ... I've tried to check it on clean phone without any application installed and it is not there - just setting for "Unknown sources" but not Device administrators .. :(
[HTC Sensation] akafarmer:
Me either until you install an app like Where's My Droid, then go to the Security section of WMD> Remote Wipe or Remote Lock. DO NOT 'SET DEVICE ADMIN' but this should put the option in the Settings>Security menu of the phone. but after uninstalling WMD it goes away. maybe you can make use of it for programs that need device admin privleges while WMD is installed, hopefully it dosen't disappear if you authorize a different app, then hopefully uninstalling WMD wont remove the option if a different app already has admin rights. Are you pickin up what I'm layin down? I know it sounds crazy, thumbs down ICS
[HTC Sensation] rkafka:
Now I uderstand it. When there is no application with dev.admin privilegs demand, the option is not there (nothing to set/reset) .. :) .. It clear now .. Where is my Droid shown me how it is working .. Many thanks for explanation ..
[HTC Sensation] akafarmer:
I'm knew at posting and don't know if you hit the thanks button but it would be greatly appreciated. btw, this problem is not on any other ICS phone I've seen, just Vivid, rooted or not.
[HTC Sensation] rkafka:
You have found the root cause of this "problem".. It is not a bug it is feature :)
[HTC Sensation] pnlrogue1:
That did it for me, too!

Just to confirm, I found a small app on the Play Store that wanted Device Admin rights (an app called "Lock Screen" which just provides a button to lock the device), went in to it's settings, enabled Device Admin rights and then the 3rd Party Apps and Device Administrator settings appeared in the Security Settings. Thank you!
[HTC Sensation] akafarmer:
Seems like a problem to me, I have yet to get these options back after setting Where's My Droid app as a Device Admin.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] steveflack:
Gday guys, i have just installed the new latest cm7 rom. But im having some issues, that i thought were fixed in the new update.

For example - the other day my wifi stopped working, saying there was an 'error' so i had to reboot and it worked again.

The other issue was after a few hours on standby my tablet would turn on, but once it went to sleep again, the screen wont turn back on again. I can still turn the volume up, but the screen remains black.

Does this happen to any one else? If so, how do i fix it.

Cheers steve

Hello. I belive you should look in the CM7 support thread for your answers. It can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1540272
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
Check the various cm7 support threads rather than creating a new one please.

That said, I have been running the current version of cm7 for around 3 weeks (being a tester I got it a while before the public release). In that time, I have not had one single wifi error. It has never stopped, dropped, errored etc. I switch between wifi locations at least 4 times a day between home, work (in office as well as in the field) as well as tethering to my phone occasionally. Gonce's current build of the wifi driver has been flawless for me. This was the case on the internal as well as the sdcard versions of cm7.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpt. jack sparrow:
Hi there,

since LPH Beta I got the problem that my SGS2 won´t boot after I modded the build.prop.

GokhanMoral said, with his Siyah-Kernel this bug is fixed, but it´s not!

What can I do? I don´t want to use the workaround with backed-up build.props
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madddi2011:
What exactly did you do? I modded my build.prop slightly and everythings fine. I'm running Hydrog3nics + Siyah 3 a5
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpt. jack sparrow:
It´s in the thread-title: I modded the file on ICS i9100XXLPH. Then it stuck on the bootlogo.

I know, that´s a general failure, but GM said (or prooved) that it´s fixable. So now I want to know: how???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PM_mobile:
1st, can you get into recovery?

Do you have either of these:

-Backed up build.prop before the boot looping. (On your PC or on the phone itself.. maybe a build.prop.bak in /system?)

-Original working build.prop from the ROM.

-Exact line you changed (before/after)

If you have either I can make you a flash able zip to restore it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PM_mobile:
Meh.. nvm.. didn't see you didn't want to restore the file..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpt. jack sparrow:
I changed ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung to ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-vf-de so that I can use the Vodafone-Market in Germany.

Since LPH the error occures. :(

But if you could build a flashable .zip of build.prop with the new line, that would be greatly appreciated
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PM_mobile:
Ok,

This will ONLY change that line on the existing build.prop file in /system:

ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-vf-de

for that line:

ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung

Nothing else.

Try the zip, or if you have adb access..

adb shell

#

cp /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.broken.bak

sed -i 's:ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-vf-de:ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung:g' /system/build.prop

reboot

Let me know
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpt. jack sparrow:
Didn´t work: stuck on boot-logo... :( (tried the .zip)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikesmatrix:
Try reflashing the rom without wiping. It did the trick for me and I didn't loose any data.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpt. jack sparrow:
I don´t need help to flash or anything, I want to edit my build.prop!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PM_mobile:
I think what pikesmatrix is suggesting is that by reflashing the ROM without wiping would restore any broken system file.. including your build.prop without touching your data, pics, music, etc
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpt. jack sparrow:
I know. I did that a couple of times.

But the question still is: how to make it work? Shall I try a kernel of ICS-builds, where it worked?

Tried CF-Kernel for LPB - Softbrick.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikesmatrix:
What exactly are you trying to edit? Bearing in mind the build.prop file is a very delicate file. Editing the wrong thing (regardless of what kernel you have) will cause your phone to bootloop.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tallustus:
he tried to edit the

"ro.com.google.clientidbase"

setting. To pay via vodafone germany billing

But after changing the setting and a rebooting the device stucks on the SGS2 boot logo.

I also have this problem with Omega Version 3.2 and up

so i'm currently running Omega ROM 3.1 (XXLPH Android 4.0.3) and here it works

Version 3.2 and 4.0 are also XXLPH but do not boot after changing build.prop settings :/

Got arround this issue ...,

I have downloaded latest Omega (5) unpacked the 'zip' and changed the settings in the build.prop, then re'ziped' it and flashed it

it boots up fine and also the market is working for vodafone users :)

It's HSDPA and HSUPA you're looking for. (Combined together: HSPA)

The Gio's radio supports HSPA and speeds up to 7.2 Mbps. Says so right on Samsung's specifications page.

The 3G mention in the features list refers to HSPA (you may also see the acronyms UMTS and WCDMA, they essentially refer to the same thing), as EDGE is 2G.
[HTC Sensation] WatkinTench:
Hello,

I'm really hoping you can help me out, for I have got myself into a bit of a pickle.

I have been eagerly awaiting ICS, and downloaded mrT69's PG58IMG.zip ics.

Now my phone is stuck in a loop of booting, I'll hear the music start up and quietly brilliant screen and it just keeps repeating. I've tried a system recovery from the hboot menu no dice, I've tried recopying pg58img.zip and receive an error wrong CID or similar, I'm a total plonker for bothering and now i'm just desperate to simply get my phone back working.

Anyway help would be great,

The details I got from my phone are

HBOOT 1.27 000

10.14.9035 01 M

Jan 13 2012 17:33

* My phone is totally stock, this was the first thing I've attempted on it, and will be my last.

Please oh please help you're my only hope.

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
What software version were you on before attempting all this? This is the most important thing to know before you try anything as it helps you find the RUU for you phone
[HTC Sensation] WatkinTench:
Thanks for your reply,

Is there an easy way to find out what software?, I backed up my sdcard, if the info is stored, but it was the latest gingerbread I think, totally stock and the phone is a white sensation from asia, z710e I beleive, as you can tell I'm pretty hopeless with this stuff.
[HTC Sensation] shanman-2:
If you have done the flash please reboot to RECOVERY and WIPE the CACHE partition. After this reboot again to RECOVERY and you will see that everything is on ext4.

I'm working on a solution but I can't provide this at the moment to cover this problem during the flash process.

I would try this if you haven't already!!
[HTC Sensation] WatkinTench:
When I select Recovery, I get the green circle arrow icon then a red triangle with exclamation mark, and nothing else.

*** I've now read up and now know that's normal, I've cleared the cache, same looping.
[HTC Sensation] francescrm:
Repeating means rebooting ?

Your device was S-OFF?

It happened to me as well (or something like that) when installing a theme not suitable for GB, i am not going to tell you that i have the right solution but here what i did (and it worked!!) to recover my Sensation:

Look for and store in you sdcard:

- PG58IMG.zip (i add the file, it converts HBOOT version into 1.17.000)

- ROM Real_Stock_Experience (can give you dropbox link to download when you do not find it, it is 354MB)

Flash HBOOT 1.17.0000 from Recovery (when your device enters in HBOOT should ask you to appy update automaticly) and after that flash that ROM (it is a zip file), device shuold start normally, after that you can flash latest RUU.

Hope it helps.

Rgds,
[HTC Sensation] WatkinTench:
thanks for replying,

I tried using the pg58img.zip you linked but I get the error

CID incorrect! Update fail! press Power to reboot.
[HTC Sensation] shanman-2:
wiggshome is having same problem on dev thread, keep an eye there as I have no other thoughts on your problem
[HTC Sensation] francescrm:
That is probably because you have got an Asian ROM, i can only suggest you to make your device SuperCid (11111111), that will allow you to flash it. Look in ROM forum to find out how, now i remember i also had to do it, done it with device in HBOOT and connected to PC via USB, you need to enter certain commands in DOS.

Rgds,
