or work again

im so so so so sad gys plz any one tell me what can i do?:crying::crying::crying::crying:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
Just do the flash again
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gamesky:
Try this;

* Press Power + Vol Up key for more than 3 secs, so you will get 3 times vibration

* Start FlashTool, load the firmware, and put your device in flashmode by pressing Vol Down and plugin via usb

* Start flashing

Does it work? :confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adam1000rr:
You should be able to flash again...

Just power down (if it powers up at all), then hold the volume down key and connect to your pc via USB, if the LED turns green you can flash the .ftf ;)

I had no such problems when I was on stock...

Now I'm on custom ROM, and still no probs

Might be the problem with the free RAM.. Do you multi task heavily?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
No,but settings app is really laggy most of apps runs smooth there is much free ram.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] babu.rajiv2007:
At times, settings do stutter at times.

Its normal I guess
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
OK,thanks.

I had worried since my LwW didnt lag in settings menu even on ICS also my old Xperia X8 didnt lag.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
I asked sony for this problem and they reported that this is not problem but they said that they know for this "problem"

Im not sure will they fix that or not.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] babu.rajiv2007:
That's good to hear

There are pending updates, and hopefully, it'd be fixed by then. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
Updated.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yasin12:
I havnt noticed lag as much, only if I have alot of apps open but thats expected.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
Thanks for report it looks its global issue anyway that is 2d problem,they didnt done great job at creating 2d libs.

With 3d libs everything is fine.

All games are running at 60 fps smoothly.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panfist:
I am having some major problems with my touchscreen/digitizer.

About three months ago I dropped the phone and it cracked the screen in a few places. It was still completely usable.

In the last month, there have been some areas of the screen that have become completely unresponsive. I could usually get around this by rotating the phone, touching a different area, and then rotating it back. However the problem seems to be getting worse where larger and larger areas are unresponsive. There is now a rectangular band about one centimeter high that goes the complete width of the screen that doesn't respond to any touch, ever.

In addition to the completely dead zones on my screen, the touchscreen sometimes becomes completely unresponsive which can be fixed by locking and unlocking the screen.

I don't have a lot of money for a new phone, so I was able to live with these problems, but they're getting worse. Also, if my wife or anyone needs to borrow my phone they often find it completely unusable. In the middle of me explaining the problems and workarounds, they usually just give up.

I'm wondering if I replace the digitizer, will this problem go away? Or is there something else wrong with the phone that might not be serviceable by me? In addition to the digitizer problem, my headphone jack stopped working. If I plug anything in, nothing happens and sound continues to come out of the phone speaker. That's leading me to believe the phone has some deeper problems that I might not be able to fix, but if I can fix the screen I can live with the headphone jack problem.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ovitz:
My digitizer wasn't cracked, but I have the same problem. I send my phone to service and I'm waiting for response.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panfist:
"Service" is not an option for me. The warranty is gone. I do not have insurance. I purchased the phone refurbished for $50. The only reason I did not replace the digitizer the moment it cracked is because the digitizer is the same price as what I paid for the phone in the first place.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ko_wei13:
Mine under warranty so I send it to motorola service centre and they replace the digitizer for me. I get it back in 2 days after sending it in.

But they flash my ROM and I'm not sure whether my phone still unlockable or not.

Btw, I have read a lot of atrix user with digitizer issue. It send common for our phone. You can easily spot few threads showing you how to replace the digitizer.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shlunky:
Soooo, I hate to bring back a dead thread, but I figured it was better than starting one of my own.

My Atrix recently had a sudden impact of its own. Cosmetically, it is still perfect. The touchscreen no longer responds though.

Phone still works. It receives calls, text, syncs with email, changes volume, etc. The touchscreen just wont respond to any of my fingers lol.

My question to Ovitz (or anyone else) is, did you get your phone back fixed and what was the solution?

I am leaning towards the digitizer, but I just want to verify before I put money into it. There are no rattles in the phone. No crack at all. I, generally, take great care of my phones and this one looks basically like it did out of the box.

Thanks in advance!!!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cab121:
You dislodged the connection for the didgitizer or broke. I suggest you replace it. There have been plenty of Q and A threads on this. Get one from eBay oem, YouTube search a how to, and take it slow.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cognosco:
Summary: enjoyed Xperia S although yellow spot problem. Microphone broken > RMA > no warranty, no repair, because of rooted in the past.

As early adopter I have been using the Xperia S a couple of weeks. Great phone!

I have unlocked it and rooted it since the beginning (for firewall, lbe privacy guard). Used the good and clean firmwares. Did no fancy things but just enjoyed it in an optimal and safe way. Just like how an experienced poweruser likes to use his phone.

Since the beginning I had the yellow spot problem. But I could live with it:) The device was just great! Suddenly my phone broke down, the microphone didn't work. First I thought it was the carrier, but programs like Shazam didn't work either. So it really was the mic. I tried a reflash, and even flashed to .76 firmware what was just released. Just to try the most before sending it RMA... It did not work so I had to send it RMA.

Now, more than a month later, I got the device back. Unrepaired!!! And I had to pay 85 Euro's.

Why: 'the software in this phone has been modified'.

A broken microphone and the yellow spot problem. No repair, no warranty, just because I used a firmware with some more userrights (root) once ...

Is this normal? Is this how Sony works? I regret it, now I have a more than 500 euro worth brick. Is there something I could try? I am not that rich...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] GuestD0071:
Im sorry to hear that

Some companies need to realiase that root has nothing to do with faulty hardware.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] huntedsoul:
OMG sorry to hear that mate, dont know what to say but try flash stock fw and fill another repair complain again. I dont know if that works but atleast give it a try :(

Sorry mate
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:
Yes re-lock the bootloader and flash stock firmware then send it back.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gully61:
I have friends who have changed the cover, display, taking root and unlock bootloader, no cost under warranty from sony Italy.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Matze5800:
Well, somehow my USB-Port is only usable for charging and the device doesn't recognize it if i connect it to my pc and only starts charging...

It still recognizes the difference beetween USB and AC though... Both times using the same cable...

Please check your dmesg after connecting to your pc and post it here to see the differences... thx :good:

[G2 and Desire Z General] GinoAMelone:
When I had this happen, changing ROMs didn't help. It also didn't work in recovery. Ended up warranty replacing.

Since then, I've read people saying that a good cleaning with canned air can cure it. Of the port on the phone.

Oh yeah, also rule out bad cable.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kbeezie:
If cable and port are good, then it's also possible that the computer isn't providing enough amperage out of it's port in order to trigger on charging. Kind of like how an iPad won't charge off most typical computer USB ports.

Edit: computer shut down before I could type the rest.

If what you are having is the opposite, charges by PC but the PC can't see it then list out:

1) Your Rom/Android Version

2) Your Computer and it's OS

3) If you've installed drivers for your phone.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] netfortius:
Just got my TMo S3 yesterday, and before moving forward with rooting it - as always with new phones - I started trying all the options with the existing stock ROM and vendor stuff, to understand what to expect, should something come down that pipe, later on. Things noticed (phone connected to a mac osx lion):

- the "universal" Android file transfer app won't work at all - cannot find device. Works for other Android devices, so that's not the app or the USB

- the kies app (which I installed from Samsung's site) prompted me for a firmware upgrade, which I agreed with -> marked as "SGH-T999 ver 12.04.12.01". The process appeared to go just fine (albeit taking more than 15min), after which the keis app asks again for the upgrade, to the same firmware level ... what gives?!?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shaxs:
I keep getting a notification from all the different SMS apps I have tried that is called "Hidden Sender Address". When you click on it, it takes you to the app but not to a message. Chomp SMS indicates it is an MMS message. I cant find any unread message in the stock app or any aftermarket ones.

Regardless, I cant find it to delete and it wont stop showing up in the notification bar. Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spacejams:
OP, have you been able to fix this issue? I just received the update to Jellybean and am currently suffering from the same issue. I have tried deleting all messages and clearing the app cache but haven't been able to get rid of this notification.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vahlk:
I'm actually receiving the same false notification and it started today for no reason other than opening an mms. On galaxy s3 CM10 preview
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shaxs:
Nope...havent found an official fix. If I use Chomp, it doesnt appear. GO and Handcent and it shows back up anytime I receive a new message.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schwalbach:
I just got this showing up starting today too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shaxs:
Yeah, it still shows up for me. I am stuck with Chomp which my least favorite one...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smartnphone:
If you're using a 3rd party messenging app, disable the auto-retrive MMS. Go to Stock messenger and enable auto-retrieve MMS.

I use Chomp and this fixed the problem for me. Hope it helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shaxs:
Yes this is how I got around it but I couldnt find the options in Go or Handcent to disable MMS retrieval. So I am stuck with Chomp which is not the best of the three IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fortune090:
Just started getting this today as well on GO SMS. Easiest fix- Option key, More, Mark All Read. Cleared them out for me and the notifications thay wouldn't go away are gone. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smartnphone:
In handcent you can go to "receiving message settings" and disable auto retrieve. My sister uses handcent and hasn't received any MMS problems since.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 200hpAltima:
Hey guys. I had this pop up last night after receiving 2 MMS in a row. Setting the auto retrieve off did not fix it but "mark all read" did. Just to let you all know.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
I believe there is a feature to mark certain contacts/conversions as secret. That I'd what that notification is. Look in your settings for something that refers to that. Those messages don't go to inbox but separate folder. Think you might have to password them to access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 200hpAltima:
I think what you are talking about is the private inbox. Those still come up and go away just like normal text messages except they bounce to the private box. That is not what we are talking about here though

Hidden Sender Address notification !!!FIX!!!

I was having this problem the other day after installing a jellybean messaging app. It worked fine for a day or so then I started getting "Hidden Sender Address" all the time and then wasn't even able to delete my texts. I would delete the entire conversation and it would still show that there was a conversation there, but it was all empty.

I contacted at&t to see if they had any ideas and the only thing they could come up with was factory reset. Screw that I knew there had to be another way. I'll never trust them completely!

I contacted the creator of the app and this is what he had me do and it did work:

If you have root you can clear the DB by deleting this file (apparently):

/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db

Of course that will delete all your SMS and MMSs, but you can

(hopefully) back them up to gmail and restore them afterwards using

SMS Backup+.

OK Everyone. I have resolved this issue on my Galaxy SIII and your are more than welcome to replicate this but beware, you may lose your SMS history.

First you can either delete all SMS. I didn't want to do this for obvious reasons.

Second, scroll all the way to the bottom of all your SMS. If like me you have oodles of them this might be annoying and take a while. At the bottom I found a sender called 'ANONYMOUS'!!!! Sounds ominous doesn't it.

I deleted this thread and since then I have nto had this message appear. ALTHOUGH.... i lost all my SMS as a result.... LOL whoops. bug time!

Please note. I also disabled auto download MMS, cleared badgeholder cache (which temporarily works), readded SMS icon and disabled google hangout from picking up SMS and neither of these permanently resolved the issue but feel free to try these first as you probably should do as they are non destructive.

:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AzureShade:
Easier solution

I was having this issue as well and a simple as it is, if you just go to more options and mark all threads as read the alert will go away.:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dcrandon:
Just started having the is issue last weeks after using Handcent for years. It's extremely annoying as I'll get a notification that that I have this message dozens of times per day.

Tried unistalling and reinstalling Handcent without success. So, I unistalled Handcent and starting using Hangouts....no more of those annoying texts, but now I'm using the annoying Hangouts.

Downloaded and am now using SMS Messaging (AOSP) by Sylvain Galand, which is basically like the old stock Android messaging app and haven't gotten the text in about 12 hrs.

With this app I can send an Audio file as well, with the Handcent app for the life of me I couldn't figure who to send just an audio file.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m.raczka:
[SOLVED]

Hi.

I've just solved this issue.

What I did was:

1. uninstall 3rd party messaging app

2. go to stock messaging app and scroll down to the bottom of messaging list

3. find message from "anonymous" or sth like that

4. delete it and.... voila! problem solved!:highfive:

After that I've installed 3rd party app. I am not sure is uninstalling it necessary but in my case it was one of the steps.
