Still a lot less then I payed for it once.
[Xperia Play Accessories] simpson1991:
i bought it for 15€ (18,79 USD) today in ebay xD
[Xperia Play Accessories] ps3taker:
GBP 19.99 on play.com in the UK if you want it - I think it it too bulky - new version is better on pictures at least looks like proper watch - I use mbw-200 instead

I'm waiting for the pebble personally (getpebble.com). Eliminates the problem of having to press a button to see the time.
[Xperia Play Accessories] Michaelolio:
Thanks!

This is a sweet deal. Thanks for the heads-up! I got one yesterday :)
[Xperia Play Accessories] sufy1000:
Yeah but with that watch you can't read text messages, missed calls and stuff like that.

With the Liveview you can and it's a steal at that price.

The MBW-200 is still too expensive !
[Xperia Play Accessories] narflynn619:
this may not have something to do with the deal, but since it's about liveview...

guys, i just updated mine to the latest firmware available via Sony Update Service, but I still have disconnection problems. is that suppose to happen? any solutions?

i saw a number of posts about fixing the issue by using an app called MinFree, but aren't those tutorials intended for the old software of LiveView?

and lastly, since the issue is about android killing the liveview app, will converting it to system app solve the problem?
[Xperia Play Accessories] ozzmanj1:
I updated mine a while back and it was better but not perfect. I use Go Launcher and have it set to not kill this app. THis app is a godsend... I have next to zero disconnects.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5saXZldmlld21hbmFnZXIiXQ..

ITs $1.99 but in my opinion totally worth it.....
[Xperia Play Accessories] narflynn619:
jeez.. i think i wasted money here.. i was hopeful all the bugs were sorted out already since almost all threads about its bugs that i read were almost 2 years old.. and that the latest update came 2011..i feel ripped off..... :(
[Xperia Play Accessories] ozzmanj1:
There was another app that was not on the market that was free it also worked well. I dont have my phone with me right now but when I find the app I will let you know. Did the above app not work?
[Xperia Play Accessories] narflynn619:
Thanks for the time helping out an "accessory noob" guy jgregory! Nope I didn't try that app yet. Apparently my unit is kinda working good now after the firmware update. It has been connected already for an hour without disconnection, only some type of freezing on the device that forces me to turn off and on again the devicE. But it's really rare now. I'm gonma do an overnight conmection test, see if it disconnects while I'm asleep. :D

These accessories are actually on sale in our country. Yesterday I bought MW600 despite negative reviews, but I'm actually impressed with the headset. It has good battery life. 4 hours into music and the battery indicator is still at full. I just hope it doesn't go into some sort of cardiac arrest like most reviews talk about.

I'm happy that the LiveView can control the music on my phone using PowerAmp whilst using the MW600 simultaneously. ;)

These accessories are so cool! :D
[Xperia Play Accessories] ozzmanj1:
Yeah once i got the disconnection problem resolved this things sweet. I use it mostly for music streaming to my headset..... hey I was going to PM you but theres no option for it on your profile....
[Xperia Play Accessories] narflynn619:
Oh jeez I don't know why. Must be because some disrespectful kid was bugging me and dropping crap on me via PM and I reported him and the mods interfered. Maybe you could try again. ;)

Anyway, what messaging app are you using? I'm using GOSMS but apparently LiveView doesn't support it

I don't use the stock messaging app because it looks worse than a command prompt window. Haha. Any workaround you know of?
[Xperia Play Accessories] ozzmanj1:
I use Google Voice....
[Xperia Play Accessories] narflynn619:
I mean for SMS? Texting? Not online?
[Xperia Play Accessories] ozzmanj1:
Oh.... yea. I dont have a texting plan as about 98% of people I know are on Google talk... I use Google voice for the 2%
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guitmz:
Whats the best rom for low RAM usage? Please share your opinions so I can choose one rom haha

Thanks a lot!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doa4ever:
Depends on your needs. Only for phone calls? Gambling? Chatting?

Slim ICS is pure basics.

I use BLACK ICE KANGORADE after testing a lot of ROM's with AirKernel 4.2 'cause it's the best allround ROM. Fantastic battery life, big mem support for a lot of apps, stable.

The best would be you test a few selected ROM's. Each 2 days a new ROM.

BLACK ICE KANGORADE, AOKP B38, KangyUltra, ASOP+ N8, MIUI, CyberGR.....

:)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
Like stated earlier, depends on your needs. You may benefit a little from bigmem support kernels if you do a lot of gaming. If it's just for day to day use, most ROMs offer the same RAM usage. Keep in mind Android handles RAM very well on its own. Just use trusted apps and you should be good(no memory leaks).

CM9 Roms are really good for having a good amount of ram

°N€×U$ $⁴G°
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billchen0014:
what's important is that you have to manage the memory yourself, this will make a bigger impact on ram than the rom does. get rid of anything you don't need: light weight launchers like Launcherpro uses 200k memory if you minimise the widgets, and FORCE STOP Facebook services when possible, it takes A LOT of ram. use no more background services than neccesary, clock/weather widgets uses ram because of their background services. i perfer slim ics, its da best.
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I just ordered one of these. I figured for $19 it was worth it.

http://www.dailysteals.com/

Sale goes for another 7 hours 35 minutes as of this writing.

PS... I know this is supposed to go under "Accessories" But I wanted to post this where everyone can see this. There are actually more apps for this in the market then I thought there would be. Yes, I also a aware it is over a year old now but again for $19 I figured why not.

If anyone buys it and or has had it mind posting your thoughts on what you think of the Sony LiveView
[Xperia Play General] vokal1992:
what? is this even real? or just a scam? soooo cheap... suspicious
[Xperia Play General] Themindbuddah:
Had one when i first got my Play about a year ago! Handy for quickly checking your texts and calls! Never really used it much past that, as a lot of the add ons never seemed to work too well!

The other major problem was it disconecting! Some times would work for 4 hours! Other times would have to re-connect every 15 minutes! But for $19 bucks its a steal! Well worth it!
[Xperia Play General] vokal1992:
but can I trust this website? o:
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I have purchased from this DailySteals several times and its legitimate. I am guessing the reason for the cheap price is because there is the new Sony SmartWatch that replaced it. Thats why I am guessing there is the firesale on the LiveView watch.

I recently ordered a external battery charger for my gadgets and it was regularly about 89, got it from this site for about $50. Thing works great, love it. Now I'll be waiting for the LiveView to come in the mail
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
Please post a review of it when you receive it. I've read reviews and it is utter GARBAGE !
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I will post my review on it here when I get it and have a couple days to play with it. I have read reviews bashing it for inconsistent connection issues, which have been resolved with a app call LiveView Manager Charm. And read others saying its great. But yes I will leave my review here.

Be advised that this sale of the LiveView ends in a matter of hours so if you want one you would need to get it sooner. And the price above @ 20 is half the price of what I have been seeing it at SlickDeals.net and many other deals sites. Just my 2 cents.

Just saw this.....

[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
REMEMBER this is the LIveView not the Smartwatch!,

u can get the liveview for under 30$ from amazon, the specified 99$ are a joke!
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
Yes, I am aware this is the LiveView and NOT the Smart Watch. I have typically seen the LIveView for around 35-40 on Amazon. So the $20 new in box is a great price in my opinion
[Xperia Play General] adolfo778:
I bought one from there like two weeks ago, its not a scam
[Xperia Play General] savage24x:
It says $14.99 for me. You guys are including shipping?
[Xperia Play General] fma965:
what about UK?

EDIT amazon UK has it for £22

Something to tinker with! And yes, it's 20 including shipping so it's like 50% off Amazon price.
[Xperia Play General] Android Is ReadyTo Play.:
Is there anyone thinking SmartWatch ? Whats difference between LiveView and SmartWatch ?
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
mh the only difference i discovered till yet is the control of this device, the smartwatch got a touchscreen the liveview not, i also think that a view more apps are available for the smartwatch.

the battery lives longer then the battery of the liveview.

and the last difference i know is the look of the devices^^
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
I know I was saying that this had bad reviews but i've bought one myself :) I got it cheap though

Btw anyone know if the Liveview going to get a firmware update for the issues it has ?
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
yes, through the firmware update should the issue be gone
[Xperia Play General] savage24x:
I told my dad to order one I hope he did.
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
Just so everyone knows its expired. It was only good for about 7 hours from when I posted it. That was 17 hours ago. Going to make the change in the title to reflect that.
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
So, how do I update it through PC companion ?
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
Power it off, and I believe you press and hold the top left button, while inserting the usb cable. Select LiveView from the list of products. I saw a couple videos on how to update the firmware on Youtube. Might want to check there for a detailed video if you need more help.
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
I read that you have to update using the X10 otherwise it won't boot up ?

Know anything regarding this ?
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I saw a video on Youtube where the guy selected the X10, later the reason why that was the case at that time was becuae the update software didnt have the option for the LiveView. If you open the Update software now it has the LiveView isted as an item to update.

This was the video in question. The guy even lists in the comments the reason or selecting the X10. But again that is no logner the case with the LiveView.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljqm4XRigcU
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
So basically choose Liveview yeah ?
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
Yup. I even loaded up the update software and liveview was listed. Let me know how it goes
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
Ok I will. Thanks
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
What's the range on the Liveview ? is it 20 metres ?
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
so here is a little review from me,

the liveview is up to date, but it lose the connection every minute and after this i have to reset the connection and make it again from new. -.-

the functions it selfs are great but when i lose every minute the connection its realy anoying, i bought it for 10€ and hope to sell it for 15€

and at last: dont buy this ****!

Doomkernel, Gin2ICS 1.7.5

Update: i tried it again with my girlfriends phone xperia mini Pro with stock android 4.0.

It works everything great with her phone.
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
Which version are you running on your Xperia Play ?
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
Doomkernel, Gin2ICS 1.7.5
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
I'm on stock and not rooted so I'll try it on mine and see how it goes.
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
yes it would be great if u post your result here :)
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
Will do when I get it which should be hopefully tomorrow.

Btw have you updated your Liveview ?
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
Yes i did

Gesendet von meinem R800i mit Tapatalk 2
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
You need to use an apparently called liveview charm. It keeps the liveview from disconnecting.
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
Thx now it works but can you tell me if its possible to set the clock always on. So i dont need to push every time the button.

Gesendet von meinem R800i mit Tapatalk 2
[Xperia Play General] AudioCreaper:
Wouldn't that make the battery life worse?
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
yes but as long they works just for 1 day everything is fine :)
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
Like this?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voilaweb.mobile.liveview.livewatches

It makes your liveview look like a regular watch. You should look around the android market. There are a lot of applications for the liveciew that make it pretty cool. I have not even got mine in the mail yet and just found out all this either on android market or doing a search for xperia liveview on XDA. Look on XDA too, lots of applications here too
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
no not realy^^ the display will turned off after a short time, but i want to have the display ever on, but i think thats not possible, its anoying to push the botton always, just to se the time :/
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
So

Update:

i installed the firmware twice.

i tried an other rom and an other kernel(stock).

Liveview charm helps nothing, but i thought it :(

every 2 - 15 minutes i get a connection problem and have to turn the liveview off and turn it on again.

Im happy that i just paid 10€ for it, cause this is the biggest bull**** i ever bought from Sony.

I hope i can sell it again.

:sry cause the double post
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
Liveview.
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
My Liveview is freezing a lot. I have to reset it by holding down the power button for 15 seconds. It's so frustrating ! and it's always connecting.

How come this is happening what can I do to prevent it ?

[Xperia Play General] hatcyl:
same here ... just gotta be patient ...
[Xperia Play General] John.F.Remedy:
Yeah I'm just joshin. But I did have a lil concern cause I didn't think it would take this long...
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
All the daileysteals.com site does it basically link the sale to a seller. Which in turn the seller gets the $$ and then ships the item. The last 3 items I purchased through that site took anywhere from 4 days to 2 weeks. I ordered mine on the same day and still have not received mine, I am patient though. I am oping that it will be waiting for me in my mailbox so that I can play with it this weekend. :laugh:
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
My LiveView arrived today. Spent about 20 minutes trying to get the thing to stay connected and found this link that really helped. I have now had my LiveView contantly connected for over an hour with no connection issues. This thing is awesome. I have now set it up so I can see from my camera, play music and get weather, see my GPS location, get email, rss feeds, facebook, calender, I can see all my apps in my app drawer and select an app and it open it on my phone. This thing is totally sweet now that it stays connected. Here is the link that really saved my sanity

http://imransarwar.com/index.php/how-to-fix-sony-ericsson-liveview-issues-step-by-step-guide/

On the last step about renaming the -1 and what not, I just deleted the bluetooth ID for the Liveview, then used liveview manager (from the market) to delete the LiveView linkkeys, then reconnected using LiveView Charm (market) and after I rebooted, then it conneted with no issues since. Serioulsy once this thing is connected and it stays it is awesome!!!! I love this thing..... and at $19......yeah.. totally stoked
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I have found with the live watches application that the screen on mine does not go dark. I use the watch that uses the cyanogenmod logo for the watch face.
[Xperia Play General] John.F.Remedy:
Got mine today. Followed these instructions and it's actually stayin connected nicely. At first the connection was terrible. Pretty happy with it, especially for $20...
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
can you help me i dont get it :/ ?

i got hope pls can we chat together?

do you have google+ icq msn? or something loike that?
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
What is it you are having troubles with? Please detail and we can try to help you
[Xperia Play General] simpson1991:
So these are the steps i did already:

1. i installed liveview application from the store

2. installed the plugins i wanted

3.installed Minfree Manager and set secondery server to 10mb.

4. dont know wehrer is shall insert liveview app so i didnt done this step

5.pair my liveview tith my phone over the liveview app

6.try to do the incredible patch but here comes the problem.

The original linkey: 00:21:9E:94:EA:9E E17F280B83FE35CB7E6322245A22D7F0 4 -1

the modyfied linkey: 00:21:9E:94:EA:9E E17F280B83FE35CB7E6322245A22D7F0 0 4

i put it back but after the restart i have the old key back, also when i just make read properties.
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
The Liveview is a pain in the backside. It freezes a lot loses connections a lot as well. It may work for some people but it's just not for me.

If your having problems with the Liveview just get the Sony Smartwatch that's what i'm gonna do. It's much better :)
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I just deleted the linkkeys from within the liveview manager app. Then rebooted then fired up the app again and it synced. I have had 0 connection issues in 3 days. Thing works great.
[HTC One S] dung8604:
Hey guys I'm kind of new to TWRP, but not CWM, and I was wondering for us one s users who do not have s-off, what are the benefits to using one over the other? Specifically, what are the benefits to using TWRP over CWM?
[HTC One S] NRGZ28:
For one... TWRP is easier to use (better touch interface).

TWO.. it allows you to flash radio images, even with S-ON

Three... it's much faster at installing ZIPs / backing up or restoring.

For that alone. it's alone for me to run it.
[HTC One S] jriv:
You don't have to flash the hboot through fast boot with twrp you can just flash the Rom and it will automatically flash in the recovery

sent from a guy living in a van down by the river
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
only negative to consider is that any backups you made with cwm may not restore with twrp. you will have to start from scratch or reflash cwm to restore an older one if needed--
[HTC One S] dung8604:
Awesome, so it's almost like having s-off because we don't have to flash the boot separately? More or less?
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
yea, that's about all it does

i consider s-off when we can change partition table and get more data space
[HTC One S] phoenixita:
So do you reccomend me to flash twrp? have this any bug?

What about an App to run it from within the ROM like ROM Manager?
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
lol--:)

This is like should I get the chocolate or vanilla ice cream---

Just flash it guys, if you don't like it go back. It's not like like flashing radios, hboots etc. Very quick and easy. :)
[HTC One S] papi5120:
I think u can use goo-manager for that
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
So how come I have never heard of it cwm is more famous fyi I'm noob at this stuff
[HTC One S] Orical:
I have to disagree with a few posts here, you can do everything the same way with both recoveries. You don't need to flash the boot image in fastboot with cwm I've done it myself and I didn't see any difference in speed between the two backing up or restoring.

It's preference on which you choose to use, I'm not saying that either is bad they both have a great support background and are dedicated to quality as they should be, it's the most important software on your device in consideration to root users and without it working properly your taking a very large risk.

Personally believe recovery should be layed out in a manner that is easy to use and functional for all types of users, adding gimmicks to something that should be taken seriously I feel is unnecessary and both teams do a great job of keeping it clean and treat the work as if they are paid to make them.

Both are great at their work, both are worth having.

Yes goo manager from the market has roms and the twrp recovery u can flash straight from the app

Only some Android noob would call Koush a greedy dude. He has done more for the Android community in his last shower wank than people like you will leech in their whole lives.

[HTC One S] spidremann:
I hope I'm in the right place! If I used TWRP to "free" my Sprint Galaxy Nexus, am I going to run into any issues if I do everything else using ROM Manager and CWM? I'm coming from from the OG Evo and that's just what I'm used to.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
A little confused...If you installed TWRP, you can use goo manager to do many of the functions of ROM Manager. The recovery functions in ROM Manager only work with CWR. If you mean you rooted and installed TWRP and now want to install CWR, that's fine, just make sure you make a new CWR backup because they aren't compatible.
[HTC One S] v3n3:
You CANT flash HBOOT / Radio with CWM

-People forget that you can only flash those with TWRP till a certain HBOOT Version ;)

Decide yourself ;)
