I am trying to install the HTC keyboard on my x10 but all I get is FC after FC can anyone help? :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afshin_ms:
Maybe if you reboot and in xrecovery or cwm menu,which you installed miui with,by selecting fix permissions in advance options it work properly,

You can use smart keyboard pro either because that is so good and usefull.

Tried that doesn't work so using perfect keyboard instead it has a decent vibration like the HTC keyboard
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aeonys:
Hi guys,

Since the update via ota to xxlpq (polish unbranded phone) my battery life has gotten real bad.

After 1h out of charge in the morning, I'm down to 70%

While on 2.3 I could get two solid days out of the phone.

Any idea why that may, be and what I can do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Install BetterBatteryStats, let the phone run for 8-10 hrs.

Then go to the BetterBatteryStats thread on here, read the first page & the last 10 pages which will give you an idea of what info you'll need to post in order for the guys who regularly post to thread to maybe help you out/identify wakelocks which might be causing your CPU to get hammered/battery to drain rapidly.

I just lowered my minute plan to save some money. What's the best free calling over data app as I'm connected to wifi most of the time?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] addisuw:
if you are in USA or Canada you can use google voice but there isn't much option elsewhere
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bazobazi:
i use viber
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] neidlinger:
IF you have a Google Voice account use GrooveIP. It's like 5 bucks, but makes calls over WiFI using a VoIP protocol. Works like a champ.

And since it's data based you can leave it on and make calls via data over HSAP(+).
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bittermormon:
there's a free version of GrooveIP in the market too. It only does wifi calls and there's some other limitations, but it's worth looking at.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] wolfepakt:
Um if you ask T-Mobile WiFi calling doesn't use plan minutes.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] beyako:
Tmobile wifi calling its a good option
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Supamike88:
It does use plan minutes

Wifi calling does not decrement plan minutes

And hasn't since last May
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] neidlinger:
Funny because i bought GrooveIP to avoid minuets being deducted from my plan.

I can tell you i used WiFi calling exclusively at the house and it did draw minuets.

and

GrooveIP can also be installed onto non cell radio Android Devices, Tablets, cell phones with no SIM card and can be made to make/receive phone calls. Pretty awesome calling people from my Transformer, with the help of BT headset.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] wolfepakt:
hence the call and ask part. It has not used my plan minutes.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] channerz87:
Hi guys... I've searched everywhere for a solution to this but cant find one. Got my new Xperia S yesterday everything worked fine... loved the new feature where you can download album art using the stock Sony music player.

I then unlocked the bootloader and rooted - that worked fine too, no issues. However since doing that, the stock music player just says 'unknown error. could not download' when I try and download ANY art for any track (the ID tag info is correct btw). So i thought MAYBE its to do with the process I did, so I relocked the bootloader and reinstalled the 67 firmware which again works fine no issues, however the music player is still saying the same thing... 'unknown error. could not download'.

If I use poweramp I can download album art fine no issues its purely the stock Sony music player.

I'm a little stumped now as I'm fairly good with all this stuff but not having that ability is going to annoy me :) Anyone got any ideas how to sort it or what the problem is....? Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mwolthuis:
Noticed the same issue.

I also unlocked bootloader and root. Might be the problem indeed. Therefore it was working just fine.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] channerz87:
There must be loads of people who have unlocked the bootloader and rooted their Xperia S but they are obviously not getting this issue with the album art not working as I can't see any previous posts about it.... unless they haven't checked if their works after??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gurubumsmack:
Either that or:

1. Didn't spot the download Album Art feature

2. Did but didn't need to as MP3's already featured Album Art
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sixdaysandy:
As the warnings say, when you unlock the bootloader you also lose your DRM Keys, even relocking won't get them back, so features such as TrackID (and it appears album art) won't work anymore.

I'm also assumpting that you can't stream or download any DRM protected content, not sure if Sky Go or NetFlix would be affected.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cholek3:
I always use art grabber on PC before I put music files into my phone. Maybe it is due to loosing DRM keys when you unlocked bootloader?

I use Mp3Tag along with MusicBraiz Picard, best 2 I found, when I was updating my 3000 tracks.:)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] channerz87:
Yes fair enough the warnings were there, but i'd assumed the warnings related to digital rights management (ie DRM content streaming such as Sky Go which I never use anyway...) all I am trying to do here is download album cover art so I dont understand how unlocking the bootloader/rooting has affected that. The error appears like the path to get the album art details has been wiped during the process and it just needs reinputting (or something to that effect). Bearing in mind the other music players that can download album art still work, its purely the stock music player. I really didnt realise DRM had anything to do with album art downloading
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cholek3:
I would neither, to be honest, but at the moment looks like it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Evil_Sephiroth:
Same problem here...

I downloaded image from google and made custom cover art :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] channerz87:
Just for info, Track ID works fine after unlocking bootloader/rooting as does Sky Go and Netflix....its just the damn album art!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hlodys:
I tried to do the same, but from 5 albs only got cover assigned.

My downloaded pictures has 220x220 and file is called "cover.jpg"

what do I do wrong??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Irseq:
Well... You can fix it on unlocked BL. In ThalinaC's Walkman port there are some drm files, and if you clean SemcMetadataCleanup's aka Download Music data and install the one from Xperia T, the feature should work.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
Mine has stopped DLing art work and my BL is locked.

Here is status of current situation and problems which i know.

eMMC fried? (recovery shows E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log and last_log)

So what should i do? :S

Thank you for reading :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoffmas:
...sounds really bad :(

there are ways to confirm if its a broken emmc chip (google for it)

other thing you could try is to do a complete wipe through fastboot (i think its fastboot erase -w) and then flash a recovery through fastboot...

or try to recreate your partitions, means flash a ruu through fastboot

Or join the irc channel #g2root (and ask there for help)

Good luck
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperiax10.awesome:
Hi guys,

I just want another phone, I have got PS VITA but I cud not carry it everywhere daily, I was thinking abt buying xperia play, but read somewhere that xperia play 2 might b released soon..

What u guys suggest?

EDIT: I purchased XPERIA PLAY !! :)

Will see if PLAY2 will come or not !!!

I like something like this one..
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bouncynemoss:
I would probably get an xperia play (used). if you really want a play 2 you can sell your used xperia play for roughly the same amount you bought it for (i got mine for $150 usd). Honestly i won't know what a play 2 will have to offer. Cause xperia play 1 can already emulate PS1 and n64. I highly doubt we'll ever get ps2 emulation anytime soon since PC has trouble emulating that... So yeah you'll just be able to play some 3rd party android apps a little bit faster.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atarii:
I wouldn't worry about an Xperia Play 2 any time soon ;)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sufy1000:
Agreed. I'm gonna stick with my Xperia Play cause there's some awesome games that have been released for it.

King Of Fighters FTW !
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
And I read that they won't release a Play2, it only makes sense for Sony since they would 'lose' money from the emulators. So I bought the Play anyway despite I coud have saved the money for the Galaxy S III.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sufy1000:
Nice move :cool:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogue Leader:
IF (and its a big IF) a Play 2 is coming its at least a year away. Sony has already said they are NOT working on it yet. So I would not base my decision on that thing showing up. They may never even make one.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
Every time i adhere more to TLRTheory's... Well, theory: the Xperia Play is a growing gaming platform on its own, so we shouldn't only consider it as an emulator + phone, or an Onlive controller + phone, but it has a good catalog of Android games optimized for it as well.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TDMaster:
Sony would have to release Xperia Play 2 at some point cuase games size and quality are just getting better and wont work on the Single Core CPU plus the lack of memory..

i think every1 are willing to wait for XPeria Play 2 with good specs and larger screen :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sniper Spr3e:
actually im not waiting for an xplay 2 im perfectly happy with it currently.

i also would not buy it if it had a larger screen as it ruins the point of it being an xperia play you might as well carry a vita if the screen was any bigger.

also specs dont bother me really i know you need them to run more demanding games but its working perfectly at the moment isnt it. dont fix it if it aint broken and we have a good year left of it not being broken
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ff7fan4eva:
WHY DO PEOPLE THINK THIS?

The original PS2 had a 294MHz CPU but worked well because the software was designed around the hardware properly. Computers 100x as powerful will still struggle to emulate a PS2 game because they are not optimized for specific hardware or designed by the original manufacturers of the software (Sony) meaning they have to create drivers for basic things to work and then optimize them over time and also emulate the architecture of the systems CPU.

The new smartphone CPU's are powerful but the software is not optimized for them so performance can be slow.

The reason the PS1 emulator works for our phones is because optimized for the CPU/GPU combo, a PS2 emulator could do exactly the same thing on our phone now, if sony made an optimized emulator
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nhialor:
That's not true, I remember seeing an interview with one of the heads of Sony Ericsson before they got bought over talking about what is going to happen after the buyout and one of the questions was will you release an xperia play 2 and he said, if my memory severs me right, that we are happy with sales and are working towards a 2nd.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crono141:
We've been over this before. The hardware of the PS2 is much more complicated than megahertz and megabytes. It has a very complex architecture that is very difficult to emulate. What takes the PS2 1 clock tick to do takes a cpu/gpu 10 ticks. There is also concurrent processing going on inside PS2 that rely on specific timing that makes emulation even more difficult.

Long story short, a PS2 emulator will never happen for this phone. It just isn't going to happen. It has nothing to do with "optimizing" the emulator, and everything to do with the ps2 hardware being emulated.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTU_Loscombe:
I agree.

Hell, even emulating the Sega Saturn is difficult. The PS2 would be a whole different ball game
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inferno986return:
PS2 Emulation

What we are forgetting is that even the PS3 doesn't have flawless PS2 emulation. I am a late adopter to the PS3 but I have read around about people sayin only some PS2 games work on a PS3.

Now if Sony with all their money, resources and patents are struggling to produce emulation (to the point they stopped it) for the PS2 it means probably that it's a real ***** to emulate even with certified Sony hardware/software.

PSX games though work fine apparently but I am yet to try out Tekken and tell you.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
I thought they stopped the PS2 backward compatibility so they could make more money off ported PS2 games?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Don't worry, future console won't have the ability to play used game and won't sport optical drives.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inferno986return:
Seriously! That's BS though, how will be able to play any DVD or Blu-ray discs if Sony have discontinued the optical slot. That's atrocious!

And no wonder why stores like GAME and Gamestation which survived only on tangible media are failing because many of us have diversified to Steam and the PS store.

They probably have but many games which were amazing on the PS2 have yet to see HD branding including the GTA collection (III,VC,SA), the Tony Hawk collection (THUG,THUG2,THAW) and the James Bond collection (Agent under Fire, NightFire, Everything or Nothing).

To summarise both I would say Sony aren't going the best way with this, at least Microsoft made the Xbox somewhat compatible. Anyway I have enough thread derailing for now, back onto the Xperia Play 2 which could be really awesome if Sony play their cards right!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inferno986return:
I agree optimisation is definitely key and with smartphone specifications getting increasingly better we could see some really demanding and powerful games running on the Xperia Play at a decent framerate (the thread in the PCSX2 forum showed Grand Turismo 4 as a very demanding game and apparently never ran at full speed even on the console it was designed for).

Hold on! How do you emulate PlayStation games on an Xperia Play with the lack of L1, R2? And how will we be able to emulate PlayStation 2 games with a lack of L1, R2, L3 and R3?

I also hope that Sony are smart with specs and throw in Tegra 3 and 2GB RAM to keep everything silky smooth. All though they probably won't because of concerns over battery life <sigh>.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
I use the L button for L1, the R button for R1, the left volume key for L2, the right volume key for R2, the Back button for L3 and the Search button for R3, and it works quite nicely :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inferno986return:
I guess that works, but I would prefer it most definitely if the next Play addressed those issues and includes each button individually. I don't really know since I only played one for five minutes in a Carphone Warehouse store.

Hold on, Jacklebott! Are those the vanilla settings of the official Playstation emulator or did you map those manually?

I also think it would be cool if the buttons were illuminated (although that would be a potential battery drainer so I would included an option to turn it off).
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
No, I mapped the controls with FPSE. The Sony emulator is too buggy with unofficial games
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inferno986return:
Well that's cool to know, I bought FPSE a while ago (back when there was an Android Market) and if I get an Xperia Play I would definitely go back to it.

Although it would be nice if it emulated Jinx with a better framerate and more stability, it still feels like early days for unofficial PSX emulation.

Out of curiosity Jackebott, how does the official emulator get around those L2,R2 mappings? It just sounds a bit crude for Sony to simply use the volume rocker for it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sufy1000:
Lol nice.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
I barely used the official emulator at all because of the horrible graphics bugs when using unofficial games. If my memory is correct (don't count on it :P), I think it actually does use the volume buttons for L2 and R2, but I'm not sure.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inferno986return:
I can see why you don't use the official emulator, the Europe ROM selection on Google Play is terrible.

What's annoying is they didn't port the real classics like James Bond The World is Not Enough, Tony Hawk's Skateboarding (or Pro Skater for NTSC regions), any of the Tekken games (or Soul Edge) and even quirky games such as Overboard (Shipwreckers). I think we can all agree there is definite room for improvement there.

I still hope with a real wind and a prayer that with Tegra 3 we could see PS2 emulation, but as we have discussed before it's a difficult thing to do unless Sony did it themselves. Having said that I would happily pay (like £10) for GTA: San Andreas to be running any smartphone especially with the native PlayStation controls!

This XDA thread loosely points to the concept that we could see PS2 emulation on the Play.

Yes because looking at sony once they make a hit they laucnch Multiple "Devices/Games/Consoles/tv" But This year we may see a Glimpse of the Smartphone Future for 2012/2013 (I think we should Hope for Better RAM on the Xperia play otherwise it'l be to weak and Poor performance!
